Sorry, this doesn't cut the mustard for me at all.

Brilliant as always James, and so true. I’ve always felt absolutely livid about the tragedy that fell on Peter Green. Such a major loss to music, and his story is truly heartbreaking. I believe he was a lovely chap but a tortured soul who as you say fell victim to his own success. Another great documentary and one everyone should watch, listen and take heed. Thank you mate. RIP Peter Green. 🙏🏻

What a fantastic video have a wonderful day ❤😊 also RIP Peter green

very informative, and sad. Syd Barratt probably had the same experience.

These videos seem to be speaking directly to me. This and the one about Noel. Thanks mate.

Great vid but I think later on when the German idiots and the party..the other casualty was Dany Kirwan, not Denis the manager. Dany was another great just like Pete

Him and Syd Barrett sound similar

Great video, thanks for uploading

It's sad how religious beliefs insidiously take over a mind.

John must have learnt so much from the LA's how to write a good song, how to get the sound right but most important don't cock around and ruin it.

He meant evolution🤦‍♂️

Great post James thank you 👍

Due to genetic disposition 2 similar people can have completely different long term side effects from taking the same substance. It's a complete lottery.

Brian Epstein told John Lennon that he should never split the group because it was always bigger than the 4 component parts. This has been proven true time and time again because no Beatles solo album has achieved the heights through the listening lens that the Beatles ever achieved.

In the UK people had never heard of Steve Jobs. Apples were bought because of the design, quality and reliability. The design held it over others. Because of the design it gave the owner kudos - they have taste, etc.

Depends on who you believe, Martin had to record _The Beatles_ as he threatened not sell EMI records in his shops, which was substantial business. So from their point of view they would release a single or so, if they flop it does not matter as EMI still has the record sale business. They gave _The Beatles_ a lowly producer on minor label who only ever produced a few pop records and they were flops. George Martin knew near sweet nothing of rock/pop music, as John Lennon noted. When the _The Beatles_ turned up with Pete Best on 6 June 1962 it was a firm recording contract *not* an audition as the four men thought - as Mark Lewisohn discovered in the EMI archives. This believing the first session was an audition led to Pete Best being omitted from the band. Pete could not be fired as he was a quarter _partner_ in the band.

I think Peter Green had the genes for schizophrenia, the drugs just flicked those genes on like a switch. Anyone can succumb to drug induced psychosis but the majority with the correct care and environment come back down to earth. I think too much emphasis is put on the Munich incident, often by the band. Everybody in the group was great in their own right but, Peter was the 'golden goose' i think the emphasis on Munich is to kinda absolve their guilt of not seeing Peter's problems sooner and sending him home to rest and recuperate. That being said he was his own man and probably couldnt have been told otherwise.

You're right James, someone with an already fragile sense of self being spiked is the worst thing that could've happened. Jim Morrison was another who nonchalantly experimented with LSD and I think never recovered.

Ed Sullivan wanted _The Beatles_ on his show after witnessing at the reaction of the crowds at Heathrow greeting _The Beatles_ when they returned from Sweden. He said he wanted them on his show not knowing who they were or what they played. Epstein meeting Ed Sullivan was no master stoke of management by Epstein. Epstein had a stroke of luck that Sullivan wanted them on his show, all he had to do was play on this to boost the image. But when they got there the band endeared themselves to the US public by their charm and wit at the press conference. Then they heard the music, so then signed sealed delivered. At the time 1963/64 _The Beatles_ music was different with universal appeal for sure. That was the bedrock, everything else was toffee on top.

Great video. These stories are always so sad and too common from this era, Skip Spence. Roky Erikson and, of course, Syd Barrett

I like the first one, Flying Through the Noise. Its very Noel and a great title for a huge Oasis fan such as yourself. Mad fer it, yeah! 🤘🏻😎

Crappy production. Too many bullsh*it photographs and images that have nothing to do with The Kinks or 1965.

Stick to music as a subject as you know fuck all about LSD!

Don’t forget the Moody Blues (all Brummies except for Justin Hayward who was born in Swindon). Moseley Shoals = Exile on New Street.

Spiking is one of the most heinous things anyone can do

As much as I love lead guitar, Ive always gravitated to rhythm guitar. Tgese are some great examples. I can tell there's a number of guitar overdubs on Morning Glory. Great video...❤

He really was the best of the best, such a sad story.

I saw the Kinks at the Finsbury Park Rainbow, in the late 1970's. A really great gig. I'm 72 and still enjoy their music.

Nae Hair On't is the best song they ever did!

Great research as always. Would love to see one on Syd Barrett

Brian Epstein was good for the Beatles. They were good for him but he wasn’t the greatest businessman giving away 80% of merchandising rates in the US like John said there’s a lot of millionaires in the US and around the world off of our backs and hard work and they did work very hard.

Most of today’s music is manufactured, pop music for sales there will never be another time in Music like it was between 1965 and 1980 so many bands so many good songs so many different types of music it was just unbelievable😊😊😊😊

I listen to my filter must be working because Taylor Swift still sucks😅😅😅😅

My Heart beat like a Hammer (Take 2) truly Amazing Drinking your blues away track and i love hearing Peter say 'YES!' At the start just sounds cool.

A few similarities between Peter Green and Syd Barrett here. So creative, so fluid, so in the zone and so not needing LSD to open them up any more.

Thanks

Even if you do take LSD illegally (not recommending it) you should at least know about it. Spiking people is disgusting. Period.

I'm a recovering freelance pharmaceutical stuntman, and I've seen drugs destroy far more people than help them. If you're susceptible to it, then you're in trouble. I've seen people develop psychosis from speed, weed, and acid. It's pure luck that I'm not permanently altered, but when you're young, you think you're invincible, that nothing will happen, and it's only decades later when you look back and realise it. I enjoyed every stupid, hedonistic minute of it, but I escaped unscathed. I know people who are deeply messed up who didn't dive in with both feet like I did.

I grew up taking mushrooms and acid every weekend, a great period of my life, but now being alot older I realize it wasn't for everyone.

Unions are friggin' cancer.

Boring, where's the music clips?

I tune out whenever I see this bloke. Always catches me off guard.

Did the scary Peter Green lsd recordings ever get released?

Mick Fleetwood ended up donating his profits to the coke on the cane. Luckily for him the band under the yanks has had longevity keeping the royalties coming in.

Early Fleetwood Mac is some of the most important music of my lifetime, I was so blessed that my father showed me these things at a young age ❤

The addicts in the comments a proving how easily some people are hooked onto drugs and then willing to defend their use, and misuse.

What a waste. All that talent wasted. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting, something that PG would never really admit, but what I had long suspected is that he was a frequent user of LSD, as opposed to what he said about taking it 6-7 times. You do realize that when they’re talking about a 2nd person at the party locked in a trip with PG and also severely mentally damaged thereafter, they’re not talking about Dennis Keane, they’re talking about Danny Kirwan, the other Guitar player. In the same way as Jimi Hendrix and countless others, the Industry fucked them over, they needed a long break with no drugs and good people around them, unfortunately, they never got that chance.

On the infamous cymbal story, although Mick downplays the incident in this clip, Chris Dreja of the Yardbirds claimed that Mick Avory hit Dave with his high hat cymbal and stand , wielding the stand like an axe. Afterwards Ray came running after Mick yelling, "you've killed my brother!".
