The Beatles talking about doing drugs

submitted by rasch187

1 decade 4 years 4 months ago

Interview with Paul, George and Ringo about doing drugs in the 60s and how it inspired and influenced them. This clip was removed from a Disney Channel documentary but apparently left in the Japanese version.

Even good old marijuana is a lot more potent these days than it was back in the '60s and '70s. George Harrison compared smoking a joint to having a couple of beers, which was probably true back then, but certainly not now unless you're smoking ditchweed.

This is not meant to be a "Just Say NO!" comment. Shit, I would love marijuana to be legal. I just mention it because what might have enhanced musical creativity at one time I doubt would have that same effect these days. You smoke some sinsemilla nowadays and you don't feeling like getting out of the fucking chair. But people are different, so YMMV.

The Beatles did drugs??!?!? I'm so disillusioned.....

@kronosposeidon

I don't really agree with your sentiment. If the weed is stronger, just use less. You just dose yourself to a level you find comfortable.

I'm sure the Beatles used to get the good stuff.
