Fun fact, early hand written lyrics were "purple haze, Jesus saves...". It was a recollection of a dream where he was walking under water. The connection to acid is more so by interpretation of the audience.
Less accessible. Illicit LSD production will probably never be as widespread as it was before the List of Chemicals was introduced. You can develop alternative manufacturing methods for most drugs. But a hexahydroindolo[4,3-fg]quinoline? Not so easy.
> LSD became less popular in the underground drug culture.
Hmmmm...
Maybe relatively less popular, as the menu of recreational drugs is expanded from a very few bad ones to a cornucopia of good ones, but still very popular
LSD definitely had a resurgence and it's very popular again today, but it's still accurate to say it lost popularity the crackdowns at the end of the 60s.
Problem was in the 90s most North American supply was apparently coming from a couple of guys and when they got busted it almost disappeared overnight.
Yeah there was the mini resurgence in the late 80s, early 90s but I think the scene since the start of the 2010s has grown to be bigger than ever in a certain sense.
