Neal Cassady: Neal at the Wheel.

Neal at the Wheel. New Jersey Turnpike. Part 1.
Recorded by The Merry Pranksters. 25th June 1964.
A recording of Neal Cassady as he is ‘rapping’ and driving Ken Kesey’s psychedelic bus ‘Further’ on their search for a Kool Place.
I have had this strange recording since about 2000 and apart from listen to it a few times, I haven’t done anything with it. I initially bought it because I was curious to see what a recording of Neal Cassady would be like as he, famously, had a lot to say for himself. I also knew that the Pranskters never stopped recording so it was obvious that a recording of Neal Cassady must exist somewhere, and when one eventually came up for sale on intrepidtrips.com I snapped it up. I was also, I must admit, hoping that I would be able sample some of it, however the incessant drone of Further’s engine put pay to that idea. So apart from listen to it myself and use quotes from it, my favourite being, ‘I am fifth dimensional being living in a four dimensional world trapped in a three dimensional body’, it has just sat there on my shelf; an oddity amongst the many other ‘odd’ CD’s I own.
A few years back though, out of sheer curiosity, I ended up searching for it on youtube, and when I found it wasn't there I decided there and then that that would be my mission, to get it out there. But other projects got in the way and the idea stayed as that, just an idea. That is until now………
