    Mr Brownstone
    Brown Sugar

    Even Velvet Underground got in on the act, although they made you work for it with the subtly named ‘Heroin’ :giggle1:

    Really enjoyed The Stranglers. I’m ashamed to admit I hadn’t dived too deep into their work before. There was some absolute belters of tunes in there though. Kudos Susan :60:

    The song Heroin is an absolute Tour de Force of a song. Possibly glorifies the drug too much but I don’t think that was their intention. I actually knew a smack head (decent guy as far as smack heads go) and he was a massive VU fan. Said the song, especially the guitar work, really captured the highs and lows of a heroin sesh.

    I spent my teen years in Possil/Ruchill on the 90s. Knowing smack heads wasn’t a rare occurrence. :giggle1:
