Heard "Wish You Were Here" high as a kite for the first time in 9th grade and it was one of the best musical experiences of my life. The guy who played it told me it was from some Pink Floyd EP.

Immediate answer would be A Wizard, A True Star or something with lotsa densely-packed crunchy-granola guitar chords like Leo Kottke. Or anything with Moog bass. (But really, it'd be easier to list albums that DON'T improve when stoned - most everything sounds great and greater to my ears by default, in an altered state.)

best (běst)
adj. Superlative of good.

1. Surpassing all others in excellence, achievement, or quality; most excellent: the best performer; the best grade of ore.
2. Most satisfactory, suitable, or useful; most desirable: the best solution; the best time for planting

i mean what, are you guys ON DOPE or something??

I'd reach for Future Days.

Well I only prefer Tago Mago because a few years ago I was really tired laying in bed with my eyes closed & headphones on, going back and forth between stoned awake and stoned dreaming, and there were really fun shapes and things moving around.. Also it was before I had heard this album 50+ times so the music was relatively fresh. But next time I'll reach for Future Days.

I remember really really digging Fugazi's "Repeater" (particularly the snare drum sound) once when really high which just feels kind of wrong.

Is anyone else down for The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld? Like starting it at 3:30 am stoned out of your gourd and hearing the rooster calls in "Pulsating Brain" as dawn breaks?

"lol" as frivolity (Stevie D), Thursday, 9 July 2009 06:14 (fourteen years ago) link

"scott tell me about marble sheep"

they changed their style over time. you want their earlier stuff. this album is ESSENTIAL. one of my fave psych records ever:

Yes, because the best threads are when everyone just answers "There's no one best album. Bad question."

Awesome suggestions. Belle and Sebastian does not work, true. That new Sunn O)))(however you spell it) does. The last track, Alice, in particular. Perfect for the dooooobage. Keep rolling. Keep it rolling.

SourPatchCorpse, Thursday, 9 July 2009 16:25 (fourteen years ago) link

I will try some of these. I'll do the Butthole Surfers and Fleetwood Mac tonight.

SourPatchCorpse, Thursday, 9 July 2009 16:26 (fourteen years ago) link

And yeah...the Dead C.

Oh one more thing...noticed the Oneida thread. Oneida seems to fit this.

the first Funkadelic album is the one that leaps to mind when this question arises.

thanks. that youtube is cooking my grey matter

am0n, Thursday, 9 July 2009 18:51 (fourteen years ago) link

I quit smoking some time ago, so some of these are pretty old/dated, but were total classics to me then... and I'd probably go digging for one of these discs immediately if I smoked a bowl with someone.

Fluxion - Vibrant Forms II
Flanger - Outer Space
Deadbeat - New World Observer
Jimpster - Messages from the Hub
Monolake - Hong Kong
Lusine - Iron City
DJ Kicks - Kid Loco
Mixmaster Morris - Mixmag Live
Journeyman/Woob (everything I could find)
Can - Tago Mago & Future Days
King Crimson - Lark's Tongue
Underworld - Second Toughest

I also had a ton of old Solid Steel mixes I found on Audiogalaxy that got tons of play. I miss those.

mr. me too (rockapads), Thursday, 9 July 2009 19:56 (fourteen years ago) link

more recent stuff that i think would sound great under the influence of massive doobage..

Luke Hess
Intrusion - especially the Resident Advisor mix
any dub-techno influenced dubstep
Wolves in the Throne Room - Two Hunters (if in the right kind of mood)
definitely second the Bardo Pond - Ticket Crystals suggestion upthread
Lindstrom & Prins Thomas II
everything by Burial
last few Grails albums

mr. me too (rockapads), Thursday, 9 July 2009 20:17 (fourteen years ago) link

can't believe nobody's mentioned tical or agharta. also yessongs and dookie and the koln concert and crack the skye and private press and doves lost souls and the cure disintegration. back in the day art tatum piano starts here used to fuck me the fuck UP, and a dude can't neglect sketches of spain.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Thursday, 9 July 2009 20:43 (fourteen years ago) link

back in 05 i'd get lifted to common's be like every night.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Thursday, 9 July 2009 20:45 (fourteen years ago) link

implicit rule i have is that any album or song that is titled after weed is not to be listened to whilst on weed.

Close thread.

Adam Bruneau, Thursday, 9 July 2009 21:07 (fourteen years ago) link

really, though, most rap albums are good stoned. it's one way of making a marginal rap record sound epic.

scott seward, Thursday, 9 July 2009 21:10 (fourteen years ago) link

^^

ian, Thursday, 9 July 2009 21:11 (fourteen years ago) link

when i'm stoned is also when i'm prone to say things like: OMG, i am gonna listen to nothing but booty bass records for the rest of my life!

scott seward, Thursday, 9 July 2009 21:13 (fourteen years ago) link

if i'm gonna go the "listen to weedhead rap while weeded" route, it'll prob be this
