The album "Fresh Cream" epitomized the whole Hippy Scene for me. I do believe it's the first album I ever heard while smoking weed.

It's like a sense memory for me now. I will aways have flashes back to those days of lightheaded, but deepest and often darkest adolescence made better via some of the most fantastic musicians who ever formed a band.

It wasn't until "Dark Side of the Moon" and Pink Floyd that I felt that utter pleasure of being immersed in a "sound" again, and this time my first time high on hallucinogens.

I am NOT a druggie, don't get me wrong, and I have loved lots of music straight as a proverbial arrow, but there IS something about those times and those groups which will stay firmly and happily embedded in my psyche forever (except for the now-missing brain cells, of course.)
