What is the most stoned album of all time?

Today I was listening to this (way underrated) album by Houndog (Hidalgo from Los Lobos + latter day Canned Heat dude) and realizing it is probably one of the most stoned albums ever. I'd also nominate Bill Evans' Waltz For Debby and JJ Cale's Naturally. What else?

'On The Beach' by Neil Young?

Perfect Prescription by Spacemen 3?

Liquorball - Fucks The Sky

The Madcap Laughs?

Bob Dylan: Like a Rolling Stone
Stone Roses: Made Of Stone

(oh... Album....)

^ stoned

Frayser Boy - Gone On That Bay

Bardo pond - Bufo alvarius etc

spacemen 3 always felt very meditated to me. if they were high while playing, i'm almost sure they at least premeditated what exactly they'd be doing before they all passed around the thai stix

anyways - bardo pond's "ticket crystals", or just anything bardo pond. what gets me even more is that they can retrospect upon their albums and not think that maybe it gets a little boring

^beat me by a second

what's that madrigal?

Yeah I was gonna say, that Madrigal album looks good...

Well There's A Riot by Sly is an obvious one, but you know what gets my vote for cocaine album of-all-time? Marvin Gaye, Here, My Dear. Check it out.

Mad Lion - Predatah Or Prey

Wowee Zowee

Sun Araw - Beach Head

just a wild guess like... (maybe not most stoned music, but def stoned participants?)

I think dub in general is the most stoned music, so I'd go with that Scratch Perry box set. (But I'm taking "stoned" to mean weed specifically. I guess if we're talking under the influence of any and all drugs, there are a lot of other possibilities. Like Tusk, e.g.)

Ween - The Pod always sounded to me like not just the players but the instruments and the microphones and the soundboard (4-track, actually, I think) were stoned.

Scotchguard, iirc

prince far I - under heavy manners

I think dub in general is the most stoned music

Ans yet tot only did King Tubby not smoke weed, he wouldn't allow it to be smoked in the studio.

^ Oops, I promise I wasn't stoned when I typed that!

brightblack morning light generally

Joe Gibbs - Majestic Dub.

That Hatchback album is very good for smokey times.

Maybe Emeralds "Solar Bridge"

"Zion Land" forevah.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41gLa54F8EL._SL500_AA300_.jpg

"The Madcap Laughs" is probably the correct answer anyway, so why continue this thread?

I gotta second the Brightblack Morning Light and Bardo Pond noms, both great calls.

(xp) Because it isn't the correct answer

"Barrett" is more stoned for a start - Mandrax looms large

Lots of albums by the Fugs should be up for consideration.

I don't know if they were stoned while making it, but an album that always makes me feel stoned when I listen to it is U.F.Orb.

Sandy Bull E Pluribus Unum
Bruce Palmer The Cycle Is Complete
Keith Hudson Flesh of my Skin Blood of My Blood
Funkadelic s/t (the actual most stoned album of all time)

Oh yeah, the first two Funkadelics are up there. Also yeah Hudson and that Bull are great choices.

Any one of Cypress Hill's first few albums.

station to station man, that album is super high on cocaine.

basehead -- plays with toys

I'd also nominate Bill Evans' Waltz For Debby

really? love this disc, but i've never thought of it as a "stoned/stoner album."

Pills & Thrills & Bellyaches.

This is actually a surprisingly difficult vibe to capture on record, I guess. I just looked thru stacks and stacks of "psychedelic" cd's and came up with only a handful of answers. Even stuff like the Dead or Hawkwind or Kyuss (stoner music fer sure) seems a little too calculated or structured (or at least missing a sort of formlessness)to sound TOTALLY STONED.

Anyhow, I think the Parson Sound/ Trad Gras och Stenar/ Harvester stuff qualifies.

oar by skip spence feels really stoned out to me

High Llamas - Cold and Bouncy.

Truly believe it's the most misunderstood stoned-cold psychedelic masterpiece of our time. Wish more would listen to it in that context.

Comus - First Utterance

Comus? Really? I don't hear it. I feel like those are some well-rehearsed, tightly-played songs with subject matter that's almost anti-psychedelic.

Tangerine Dream - Zeit

I know that some of my favorite stoned sessions have just been with one or two synths and a fat spliff

I have no idea what was influencing the record but just all the giggles and background noise – tee hee –

Reverbbbbb
Anything with the reverb I assume weed was involved for the producer & listener's benefit
how this explains the entire history of gothics music I don't know

most anything by tower recordings and/or mv & ee

Fun thread. I'm going to go with... Tony Conrad w/Faust - Outside the Dream Factory! Two notes, lots of green stuff, a few days in Wumme = as classic as any classic thing ever.

Any remotely structured, stylized, and/or mannered musics are all disqualified in my opinion if most stoned ever is truly our subject. This rules out broad swathes of otherwise extremely psychedelic music like certain stoner rock, dub reggae and krautrock records mentioned already. It has to start from ground zero and the only rule can be that there are no rules.

I'm inclined to agree w/International Waters as to the Harvester axis in Sweden sounding thoroughly, righteously, stoned. If the question was what band, I'd go with them. They're laid back and beautiful; with endless songs, zen fuzz guitars, extended improvised rambling, shambling... and heavy as fuck all. Heavy intent, if not sound. Unfocused focus.

Oh shit! I think that Amon Duul "Psychedelic Underground" is the obvious overlooked answer here.

this is on the same level as like "best album with drums of all time," right?

(another distinction for which i would nominate psychedelic underground btw)

LOL

Liam otm: my 2nd choice was going to be the Parson Sound comp...

Maxinquay is very, very stoned.......

I'll third Oar.

For me, it is three Eps by the beta band. Just such a stoner vibe to it.

Good call on MV / Tower. I'm not even really sure those guys were 'heads.'

ok now

ya matt valentine's voice takes the whole neil young high-pitched stoner vibe and magnifies it by a few hundred percent. i guess i just assumed that dude was was a 'head' after "east mountain joint"

btw are we differentiating itt btwn 'stoned' and 'psychedelic'? because stuff like tony conrad / faust or sun araw or w/e has the effect of emulating a hallucinogenic trip as opposed to simply sounding like the artists are super stoned. i guess in my mind there's a difference?

ay mon watchoo gonna do when u run outta gancha?

that said, i feel like this album is pretty stoned:

Captain Rosie otm. The 3-Eps is so stoney.

Bongwater - Too Much Sleep

I believe this is the correct answer:

Wasn't the Cure's "Kiss Me"x3 apparently the partial byproduct of a massive acid binge?

Crosby's "If I Could Only Remember My Name..."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjioN_zBtIk&feature=related

Maybe not the most stoned album of all time but...Kurt Vile's "Smoke Ring..." LP is right up there. Dude has one of the stoniest voices even, especially his phrasing.

meant to say ever, not even. Damn.
