Down to seeds and stems again. Smokers these days wouldn't have a clue, and damn sure don't understand how an album cover has anything to do with it. What's an album anyway.

Yea I feel ya. Great memories of my best friends older brother breaking up some bud on an old Almond bros album.

It's all sticky bud now or shake. I can remember the days of buying an ounce of colombian for $20.00., but half of it, was seeds and stems too.

@@starjunkie2804 Here in the North, we could buy what was called a five finger lid... 10 dollars. Probably over an ounce. It ain't 1969 anymore.

@@davezelzer That's for sure. The stuff around today is so potent it takes me a half hour to compose an e-mail. It was all Mex and Columbian (seeds & stems). Wowie and Sensi (a few seeds & stems) Most of us just grew it out in the woods in the warm months and stashed the plants upside down in the attic. I didn't know anyone who didn't have seed burns on their shirts. Ha!

The Master of the Telecaster. Bowing to one of the great Guitar Gods. How lucky we are, to hear the man play. Hope he stays in VA, where he is loved and revered. Thanks , Bill. The good times and good tunes are forever burned in our souls.
