The most notable one floating around in my head is "Can't Find My Way Home" by Blind Faith. Not just because of the topless pubescent girl on the album cover, which when I was younger I always wondered what all the fuss was about that picture but I guess now I partly understand the public paranoia about underage sexuality.
The "music video" in my head relates to the "guru" leader of a local commune, this guy always wore a long white robe/kaftan, had long hair and a beard, very "Jesus-like". So he's up on the mantle of my large fireplace, hovering in mid-air, and then he floats off toward me in this big empty room and hands me a hit of their special stuff. The commune made the best organic mescaline I've ever experienced and they always seemed to be legitimate about the main purpose of that being for their religious enlightenment. Luckily, we knew them personally and they let some flow our way. My friends and I had no religious motivation, we just liked to see walls breathing and moving, random color flashes and trails, and laughing so hard and long you almost hurt from it.
