John Gimenez speaks to High Schools students about the dangers of drug use and how he was introduced the the world of narcotics by his best friend at the age of 16; he went from Marijuana smoker to Heroin addict.
This record was designed to educate those kids who think that it's smart to experiment with dope and not expect to get hurt.
Bound by dope; a chronic addict, a chronic criminal, a chronic liar.
There was no hope for this ex-Junkie, until he found the cure.
John Gimenez also wrote a book a few years earlier called "Up Tight" (Copyright 1967 Word Book) that talks about his long time battle with addictions.

*Original Canadian pressing.
