One of my favorite things to do while stoned is listen to albums that are really unique, artful, and/or jam packed with soul and energy, as in that head space music just hits completely differently and it just lends to me finding a deep love and appreciation for the art of music. What’re some of your favorites?
Can’t go wrong with frank Zappa’s joes garage experience in my opinion
Dark Side of the Moon
Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime
It’s a bit cliche but Dark Side vinyl, loud af hits perfect.
When you play it louder the silences hit so much harder. What an experience.
Check out shpongle and tipper
King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King.
It’s just exploding with creativity and craftsmanship throughout the album. The opening tune (21st Century Schizoid Man) was unlike anything anyone had ever heard at the time it was released, and there’s honestly still not much like it out there. And the transition to Moonchild after it is equally mind-blowing just for the contrast alone. The title track remains one of the most incredible things I’ve heard.
Zappa also has a lot of good candidates for this list. I’m soft for Freak Out, where the madness started, but some might argue something like Joe’s Garage is a better example.
