The concept of this album is pretty obvious, and it came about because I was listening to J. J. Cale's 'Cocaine', closely followed by The Velvet Underground's debut, including the classic 'Heroin', and I realised that both songs had something in common, and before long I'd recalled over a dozen more songs celebrating a wide variety of illegal substances, and this album was born. There isn't much else to say about it, so enjoy this varied collection of drug-inspired songs, which is closed by The Verve's assertion that none of them actually work anyway.
