Good advice from a drug addict

I've been listening to Bill Evans a lot lately and am just beginning to poke around the video stuff on the web. Though an undisputed genius, Evans had serious drug dependency problems at different points in his career and left Earth at the age of 51. We are fortunate to have a large body of work (though some of the really juicy box sets are currently out of print and fetching enormous amounts of dough). I look forward to exploring more of Evans' work.
