Comment:

I'm reading "How to Stop Time," a memoir about heroin addiction, so I thought I'd make a mix to accompany the book. Granted, not all the songs are directly about heroin, but the artists involved had heroin problems so I figured it could even out. And I definitely left out some good H jams in favor of others. Re: the Pumpkins tune, remember when Jimmy Chamberlin was arrested for possession and the rest of the band went on MTV explaining the evils of drugs? I'm sure there's a VH1 I love the 90s addressing the bizareness of that...
