It certainly can be a catalyst for greatness. Heroin probably being #1 in quality lyrics. But I can imagine they need to be sober or sober-ish to put it down for recording.

By that same token a lot of not great musicians went off the deep end and it killed them. Sid Vicious. Even Jim Morrison at The End (swidt). He had already written all he could. He was spent creatively. IMO.

The experience of being dope sick and a junkie, yeah, but the high of junk? Negative. Everything, including music takes a back seat.
