Actually, Tolkien was such a boring guy, it probably was just tobacco. LOL  He wasn't as crazy as C.S. Lewis.
Uh....Why would a wizard smoke pot? He needs be mentally sharp. And I don't think there is any pot in CS Lewis either.


No but Lewis was far more crazy.  I suspect Opium was smoked at some point in his writing of Alice in Wonderland. LOL

Alice in Wonderland was written by Lewis Carroll...
Quote When I first read that he smoked pipe-weed, I immediately thought it referred to pot.
That's because you are a degenerate. ;-)

I get those two confused. Embarrassed

It's that damned "Lewis" bit.

Besides, I said "Lewis was far more crazy" I didn't specify whether it was C.S. or Mr. Carroll (aka Charles Lutwidge Dodson.)

I wish he'd made the best avant-prog album the world has never heard.

Koenji?


Posted.

And this is probably my worst review ever, but I really don't know what to say.  Most of you might not even know the music.  Rico will, though.

Also, believe it or not, I'm the first one star rating.


No objections to the judgement. Such albums should never be tried before the first 15 years are drenched.

To me, it's actually the best offer from the Melrose Years (i.e. Optical + Lily + Melrose). LOL

Human Security, which is basically the study of why and how conflict occurs, and a paper on racism in European history.

Really apathetic at the moment.

I listened to it last night.

Theusz Hamtaahk is a tad weak (not because it's a bad composition Wink) on this recording, it has to be said.

And the second Malawëlëkaahm is horrid.
