I don't think Harry Nilsson was very responsible with his drugs.

I’m scared to admit I don’t know who any of the people listed are.

Nothing wrong with not knowing, better than pretending you do!

Cass Elliott was the singer in a band called The Mamas and the Papas.

Harry Nilsson was a singer songwriter.

Keith Moon was the drummer for the English rock band The Who

Nilsson was also one of John Lennon's constant drinking companions during his "lost weekend" in Los Angeles that lasted for over a year.

Heads up. You won't be hearing from them again on this sub. I'm leaving up their comments to provide context for your replies.
