Cocaine Blues No More!

Fantastic piece. I've got this album on 12'' LP, and it's always been one of my favorites.
The interviews, the extra pieces of audio, and the commentary really made the album come alive for me. I'm obviously too young to have grown up with the album, so it was great to hear so much back story. It really made it relevant for me: a person who didn't have the chance to live in that culture and time.
Now, for me, the album is more than music. Now, it's a story.
