Haight-Ashbury in the Sixties, Part 2: San Francisco Oracle, Kesey and Pranksters

The San Francisco Oracle, true to its name, was one of the first underground papers and the first psychedelic newspaper, and it spread the word of change throughout the hip community. Right before the Haight district succumbed to overpopulation, rip-offs, heroin and speed epidemics, and rapists, the original pioneers of the lifestyle bade the Haight-Ashbury a sort of farewell party, the Acid Test Graduation, sponsored by the Pranksters and presided over by Ken Kesey.

Music:

“Take a Drive” (Tony Bove) and “Jam” (Tony Bove and the Flying Other Brothers).

Haight-Ashbury in the Sixties, Part 3: Human Be-In and Summer of Love

The various youth movements came together in one particular event, the Human Be-In in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, in January of 1967. Allen Cohen, co-founder and one of the editors of the S.F. Oracle, was one of the organizers of this event, billed as The Gathering of the Tribes, in a “union of love and activism.” This event is still celebrated today, in the form of the Digital Be-In.

At the first Human Be-In, the San Francisco bands played, including Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead, and Quicksilver Messenger Service. Poets Allen Ginsberg, Michael McClure, Gary Snyder, Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Lenore Kandel read, chanted and sang. Timothy Leary gave his most memorable speech, telling everyone to “turn on, tune in, and drop out!”

Dr. Leary was one of many important speakers of that special day, in which the free speech and radical left movements of Berkeley, represented by Jerry Rubin, combined with the lifestyle, poetry, arts, and music of the hippies, represented by Michael Bowen and Allen Cohen, and forged bonds with the Diggers, who were the social conscience and backbone of the Haight, while the Grateful Dead played “Morning Dew”.

Music:

“Take a Drive” and “Johnny B” (Tony Bove), and “Jam” (Tony Bove and the Flying Other Brothers).
