Painkillers and alcohol...don’t do it. Much.

Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Diazepam and Carisoprodol.
That means Art could not count pills or he was a junkie.

Karen Ann Quinlan was the poster child for that in my day. She probably saved more people than we’ll ever know.

Tiger Woods almost overdosed twice on similar drugs. Roy Halladay had a lethal dose of one prescription when he crashed his plane. Lethal for some one without a built up tolerance.

I remember him saying that he was looking for a cure for his back pain years ago.
To: Blue House Sue
That means Art could not count pills or he was a junkie. Unfortunately it was most likely the latter.
I loved Art Bells interviews with Malachi Martin. They can still be found on YouTube. Some of the most fascinating listening youll ever experience.

“Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Diazepam and Carisoprodol.”
I doubt Art used those as directed by a doctor.

Long John the absolute best.

Yes, Art had serious back pain issues. He would sometimes be out for weeks because of his back.

Yep...it’s scary stuff. Ask a doctor.
Percosets, when combined with alcohol have synergistic effects on each other.
Drink and take pain pills....best way to stop breathing while sleeping.

Nope, but he wouldn’t be the first famous person to do so.

Drink and take pain pills....best way to stop breathing while sleeping. Up this-away they sometimes add in parking on the remote train crossings just after the booze and pills.
Kind of a back-up policy.
To: Williams
I wish they could make those old recordings sound better; some of them are very hard to hear. But the experience is very atmospheric and nostalgic even as they are.

Ol’ Art kept me awake a few times when I was really too tired to keep working.
Even if his guest was fake, he still had cool bumper music. Sometimes the guest was so good, you couldn’t sleep if you wanted to.
Just another poor soul who wanted to leave the world a little better than he found it. No condemnations from me.
