    This is an incredibly well-made piece. I commend whoever was involved in creating and editing this short! You've managed to perfectly capture Vince's essence, in all of its brilliant and bizarre facets.
    Watching this made me realize there are a lot of interesting parallels between Vince's life and the underground movie _The World's Greatest Sinner_ from 1962. It depicts a wild rock 'n' roller who declares his own messiah status and slowly descends into madness. The similarities are eerie!

They have one for peter green, Bince Taylor, as well as a few others. Highly recommend it. You can find the best documentaries on the tube

    60 to 80 micrograms is enough to induce a good high.
    250 micrograms is a very sizeable dose.
    Acid (LSD) is measured in micrograms which is one millionth of a gram, so a million micrograms equals one gram thats how low of a dose is needed to create effects, even 80 mcg is a good dose for a non user, not an active user but someone who does not use often.
    As you use LSD your tolerance grows rapidly and the very next after you use if you use again you have to double or triple the dose to get the same effects as the day before.

    I am curious; how many people y’all got working on this video? Like a few? narrator, editor, writer/researcher, or you do it all, or you part of a bigger collaboration? Jw cause I’m just impressed by the video quality from off the bat. Regardless, well done and hope the best for you!

Si elvis avait fait cela Parker l'aurai laissé en rade . Revenon a vince il a raté par la daube et l alcool une grande carrière dommage . Je l'ai vu dans les années fin 70 il était méconnaissable.

    "a perfectly safe sane and lovely ballad written to peel off pants in parked cars" That there is some good writing. Always shocking when I come across something on youtube that doesn't suck or isn't narrated by some f*cking robot or written for some 12 year old illiterate child with a 10 second attention span. Good work
