David Peel and the Lower East Side “Have a Marijuana” Recrorded Live on the Streets of New York. 1968. This is the debut record by New York street musician and John Lennon protege David Peel. Peel plays guitar and sings (mainly about marijuana), it’s all live. Fugs parallels are hard to avoid and there is the same type of parody here – “I Like Marijuana” actually got kind of popular – it’s a parody of “I Like Peanut Butter” “Show Me the Way to Get Stoned” is a killer, nothing bad on here at all, a great piece of underground wildness caught on tape. (Review by Carl Slim)

This cover brings to mind those little propeller submarines I played with as a kid in the bathtub. I think I bought them from the back of a comic book or something.

“…Actual recordings of people under the influence of psychedelic drugs… Psychedelic music…the sounds of the “Acid Test”…LSD users and pushers and the amazing story of LSD in action…Comments by such LSD authorities as Sidney Cohen, M.D., the controversial Dr. Timothy Leary, Mrs. Aldous Huxley and Allen Ginsberg.”
More from the liner notes: At Capitol Records we live in a world of the young – a world of rock n’ roll music, amid the need for a constant awareness of teenage interests of all kinds. We are, therefore, perhaps more aware of, and more sensitive to, the widespread use of LSD among the school age population…”
