(1966) Ray Charles - I Don't Need No Doctor
(1966) Ray Charles - Let's Go Get Stoned

By 1964 Charles's drug addiction caught up with him and he was arrested for possession of marijuana and heroin. Following a self-imposed stay[38] at St. Francis Hospital in Lynwood, California, Charles received five years' probation. Charles responded to the saga of his drug use and reform with the songs "I Don't Need No Doctor", "Let's Go Get Stoned", and the release of his first album since having kicked his heroin addiction in 1966, Crying Time.[39][40]Source

(1965) The Coasters - Let's Go Get Stoned

"Let's Go Get Stoned" is an R&B song originally recorded by The Coasters in May 1965.[1] It was written by Nickolas Ashford, Valerie Simpson, and Josephine Armstead.

It was a 1966 #1 R&B hit for music legend Ray Charles.[2] The single was released shortly after Charles was released from rehab after a sixteen-year heroin addiction. It is notable for being one of Ashford & Simpson's first successful compositions together; the duo also penned Charles' "I Don't Need No Doctor"[3] before they signed with Motown Records working primarily on duets for Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell.Source

Bill Cosby Talks to Kids About Drugs (1971) is an album by Bill Cosby. Unlike most of his recordings, this is not a full-fledged comedy album, but rather a record intended for children to school them on the dangers of drugs through songs and dialogue. It won the Grammy Award in 1972 for Best Recording for Children.

The album was available for some time to download free on Waxy.org. Cosby's lawyers eventually had the album download removed via cease and desist letter.[1][2]Source
