Album Notes
TAKING DRUGS TO MAKE MUSIC TO TAKE DRUGS TO is a compilation that includes early demos and B-sides.
2000 reissue of the 1990 album. This CD has a bonus track, a previously unreleased version of "Transparent Radiation."
For the majority of its six-year career, Britain's Spacemen 3 pursued its sound-for-sound's-sake obsessions in near-total oblivion. It turns out, however, that the band was merely a decade or so ahead of its time. Spacemen 3 featured guitarist/keyboardists Pete "Sonic Boom" Kember and Jason "Spaceman" Pierce. They later formed Spectrum and Spiritualized, respectively, and the much more commercially and critically successful '90s work of those two sonic iconoclasts has fueled much more interest in Spacemen 3 than the band ever received during its 1985-91 lifespan.
The aptly titled TAKING DRUGS TO MAKE MUSIC TO TAKE DRUGS TO, first released as a sanctioned bootleg in 1990 but made more widely available in 1994, shows the Spacemen at the beginning. The disc features very early recordings of songs, including the band's signature track, "Walkin' With Jesus," that function as first drafts of ideas more fully explored later. This is not a good starting point for non-initiates, but fans will find TAKING DRUGS fascinating.
