In the American urban gay community, neither LSD nor meth were nearly as popular as prescription amphetamines (pills) until the 1990s, when bathtub meth (crank) manufacturing really took off. They were all always available, but the pills were so cheap & easily obtainable that they were a natural favorite.
MDMA/"Ecstasy" was quite popular in the 80s ("mollie" today), as well as Amyl Nitrite/"poppers"/"rush". The club drugs.
