The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
- Narrated by: Luke Daniels
One of the most essential works on counterculture of the 1960s, Tom Wolfe’s Electric Kool-Aid Experiment ushered in a new era of Journalism.
This is the seminal work on the hippie culture, a report on what it was like to follow along with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters as they launched the “Transcontinental Bus Tour” from the West Coast to New York, all while introducing acid (then legal) to hundreds of like-minded folks, staging impromptu jam sessions, dodging the Feds, and meeting some of the most revolutionary figures of the day.
“An American Classic” (Newsweek) has shaped a generation. “An Incredible Book” (The New York Times Book Review) and an unflinching portrait of Ken Kesey, Merry Pranksters, LSD, and the psychedelic of the 1960s.
I loved Luke Daniels reading of this story. He really brought it to life and in a way vastly superior to what my own reading of the text would be. The story itself is an interesting story of a failed experiment in changing the world. If I could, I would certainly want to be on-the-bus and in-the-movie of the Pranksters.
