Mick Farren

Whizz, gooey, pink champagne, base: the recreational and pharmacological use of 'Speed', from Amphetamine Sulphate to Crystal Meth is a cultural habit which has existed since the early 1900s. Although considered a cheap and somewhat filthy habit, amphetamines have tempted an array of celebrities, including Elvis Presley, Truman Capote, The Beatles, Jack Kerouac, Johnny Cash, JFK and Adolf Hitler: All were at some point - to be blunt - speedfreaks. Speed-Speed-Speedfreak traces the cultural and criminal use of amphetamine and its unholy growth.
