The Acid Test recording is interspersed with short interview segments with Ken Kesey and Jerry Garcia taken from a 1980 Tomorrow Show.

ULTRA RARE FAN CLUB RECORD entitled "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test".
This of course is The Grateful Dead way back in 1966 at the San Francisco State College conducting a musical study while under the influence of LSD. Really strange and surreal! Better when you're TRIPPIN' I assume.

Not really music, more Ken Kesey talking through reverb microphones and some background 'music' by the Grateful Dead. Really hard to adequately describe. Released by the Swedish United Fan Club Society and not intended for sale, 1986's "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" collected brief excerpts from a 1980 interview with writer/acid proponent Kesey and The Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia , neither had anything particularly interesting to say.  The rest of the album captured material from the October 1 - 2, 1966 San Francisco State College acid test featuring Kesey and friends on an extended acid trip. Most of this material was simply an acid soaked Kesey mindlessly rambling on and on about nothing in particular.  His narratives were occasionally treated with extensive echo which while meant to enhance the trippy feel. The narratives were also occasionally accompanied by shards of music - supposedly Jerry Garcia and other members of The Dead, with sporadic sound effects (something that sounded like a beating heart, seagulls, crashing waves, church bells, etc.).
