Brian Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 I was thinking Motley Crue. OK, I may be a little naive when it comes to drugs. However, I swear when I was in high school, I read an article where Roger Waters said that he disdains the use of drugs. Can anyone comment about Pink Floyd and drug use if any? Was their drug use just in the early years? By the way, nice poll Ben, I think you forgot to add pollstop at the end of your post. I think that is what records all of the votes, and puts the "SUBMIT VOTE" button at the end. Too bad after 'x' amount of time you cant modify a message... I would have to see how many of y'all picked my homeboys Pink Floyd as the most drugged out band! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindy17838 Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Hendrix had his career and life ended by drugs. That's quite an 'influence'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jippers Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 I think Floyd used drugs to mak a more extreme sound but overall Bob Marley has had more lasting influence. I love them both mind you, but Marley's accessibility and uniqueness have left more of a mark commercially and socially than Floyd. Floyd have left us some great, if at times wierd music (read: LP2 of Ummagumma). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Bob Marley showed the most influence based on drug use, so did Hendrix & The Doors Pink Floyd goes great with drugs, but wasn't directly based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatGirl23 Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Growing up in the 60's and 70's it was Jimmy Hendrix. Unfotunately, he died from drugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesboy Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 LSD and The Grateful Dead go hand in hand from at least 1965, when they were first calling themselves the Warlocks (but soon changed their name to the Grateful Dead) They even had their own chemist/LSD manufacturer in Owsley Stanley... Soon Owsley doses became legendary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
