Sobriety & creativity . . .

. . .not over-rated?

Item:

I found that while many artists did drink a great deal, very few mixed alcohol with their working hours. Even the alcoholics recognized that drinking made their creative output a little too effortless and their appraisal of the results a little too charitable. Sobriety is a requirement of most artistic work. 

Story.

The unanswered question: which works DON'T you have to be sober to create?
