 Sorry ... there was way more smoke around the Beatles and Rolling Stones, than anything else in my experience, and I was in Madison, WI and Santa Barbara next to LA!
 
At least, in those days, the "smoke" was not so full of chemicals like it is today!

I guess this means we agree, Mosh. Didn't the Beatles and Stones have some of the bigger albums in the '60s and '70s?
