Yep, there's definitely a ''presence'' there. But I don't
think it was integral to their growth as artists at all. The
topic is ''does it equal better music''? For them, I don't
feel that way. The most obviously drug-centric track they
did was Dr. Robert, and it sucked. It was mainly lyrical,
though. The track itself could have been on any Beatle
album.

The influence of drugs on their tracks that are generally
accepted to be the most drug-inspired is way overplayed.
Precious few of them were, and the ones that WERE contain
inconsequential and incidental details, like marijuana being
the subject of a Motown-tinged track.

how about this:
drugs = better listening experience.

i could not agree with this more, but better music, who
knows. i think not, but i might be wrong.

Better LISTENING experience, sure. I'm sure the first thing
they did after finishing up the Lucy in the Sky overdubs was
step out onto the Abbey Road roof for a toke, and then come
back and put on some Peanut Butter Conspiracy.

defenetly... but it depends on who it has been used. If you
never before took drugs that J think that weed is the best
source to reciev what you expect. 10000 ideas at the same
time and that incredible feeling that you hear the sounds in
your music that don`t exist.Oh, and it eliminates shit from
your stuff (40sec of looped stuff and stuff)
Cheers!

I pretty much don't drink at all anymore but when I did I
made a few really shit tunes drunk.

I've done it stoned a couple of times and it's really...
absorbing haha I get really stuck into what I'm doing, but
technical stuff does my head in

yes, exactly. or babies. being a baby must be unbelievably
intense -- but they are relatively calm and sedate. imagine
coming out of the womb.

Making music on mushrooms is one of the best things ever,
especially if you're playing "real instruments" (acoustic
guitar, piano or whatever). Unfortunately it sounds
COMPLETELY RUBBISH in the morning.
