I just found out that the inventor of LSD, Albert Hoffman, has died at 102 years old.
I'm not much of a psychedelics person myself, but I love psychedelic music, and the results this drug had on popular music , art and thought.
So thanks for unintentionally shaping culture through your quest to synthesize ergot.
I wish I had a better selection of some of the best music created with LSD, than I do here at work, but thank you anyway Dr. Hoffman.
Post your favorites if you got them...

Some of the greatest things have been found by accident, by tripping over them so to speak

Damn, if I had my cassette collection unpacked I'd look out Aldous Huxley talking about his LSD trips. It's quite funny to hear an extremely cultured English voice describing his hallucinations. On the other hand, I could just post "Break On Through To The Other Side".
