Big Wheel Posted March 13, 2011 Report Posted March 13, 2011 Psychedelic icon Owsley Stanley dies in Australia And to think all this time I thought "Who Needs The Peace Corps?" might have been referring to Harold Ousley... Quote

BFrank Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I had no idea "Kid Charlemagne" was about him. Quote
Jazzmoose Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I had no idea he was "Bear"; I just knew of him as a well known chemist... Quote
Quincy Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I always try to forget parts of his life. Otherwise I'd be tempted to eat nothing but meat & LSD figuring I'd live to be 78 as it's not like age & health issues killed him. (Yeah, I see he survived cancer.) It's a cliche but he most certainly was one of a kind. Quote
BruceH Posted March 14, 2011 Report Posted March 14, 2011 I had no idea "Kid Charlemagne" was about him. Yes, that's the thing that most surprised me about the obit. Quote
sidewinder Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) I had no idea "Kid Charlemagne" was about him. No kidding. I'd been under the baffled impression for 35 years that it was about King Charlemagne ! Edited March 15, 2011 by sidewinder Quote
7/4 Posted March 15, 2011 Report Posted March 15, 2011 I had no idea "Kid Charlemagne" was about him. Yes, that's the thing that most surprised me about the obit. I thought this was unusual: Mr. Stanley was previously a ballet dancer and a member of the United States Air Force. Quote
