Cosmic Cosmos: Counterculture on Youtube.com?, Grateful Dead, Jerry Garcia, 1960's News from the Haight

Counterculture?



Interesting interviews with Ken Kesey, Jerry Garcia, Grateful Dead, and news anchor Harry Reasoner from the Haight in the 80s and late 1960s.

Jerry Garcia & Ken Kesey on the Electric Kool-Aid Talk Show:



They're both very frank and funny. (I went to Jerry Garcia's memorial service in the Golden Gate Park in the mid-1990s, after he died from an overdose of heroin. People were just milling around listening to live music).

The Dead had fun together, and they improved musically with time.

This social commentary on hippies is sociological involving critical thinking-commentary about the hippie movement in the Haight. Well known news reporter at the time, Harry Reasoner, is the commentator:)

The Dead were pretty free, and creative.

Countercultural, hippie, folk rock heroes? For many ....
