The 70s had some great movies and great music. I can't imagine any white band producing a song like The Pusherman, 1972, though maybe the producers and distributors actually were white. When I hear this song, I think what a great cultural service it is to all young men to warn them of drug pushers in your neighborhood and midst. Growing up, I had a good friend who was on something, and he told me to never try it. I didn't need to be told. Drugs scared me.

1967, Many songs explore the theme of LSD, including "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" by The Beatles, 1967, on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album.

1966, "Alice D. Millionaire" by The Grateful Dead, 1966.

"Girl on LSD" by Tom Petty,

1967, "White Rabbit," Jefferson Airplane, 1967. Although mushrooms are mentioned in this song, I don't think this song glorifies a drug-addled experience. To the contrary, the end of the song, the final lyrics read, "Feed your head / Feed your head," which sounds to me like extremely solid advice for kids growing up in the crazy times of 1960s.

1971, "Sweet Leaf," Black Sabbath. Doesn't take a terrific imagination to figure out what this song is about. But I suppose it appealed to a lot of former conservative teenagers who were looking to be part of the counter revolution.

1972, The Needle and the Damage Done, Neil Young. About heroin.

Cocaine, Eric Clapton
