Listen to “I’m Going to Memphis” from the Carousel Ballroom live recording now and pre-order the album here: The release will also be widely available in all digital formats by Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment. The live album, which will be released on CD/2LP, features new essays by Johnny and June Carter Cash’s son John Carter Cash, Owsley Stanley’s son Starfinder Stanley, The Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir, and Widespread Panic’s Dave Schools, as well as new art by Susan Archie, and a reproduction of the original Carousel Ballroom concert poster by Steve Catron. Captured in the heart of Haight-Ashbury, just days before the release of Cash’s iconic At Folsom Prison album (and over six months before the arrival of the equally revered At San Quentin), At The Carousel Ballroom serves as a third essential - and wholly unique - live document from the era, a moment of cultural collision, with Cash leaning into songs about society’s outcasts, while playing a venue operated by The Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead. On October 29, the Owsley Stanley Foundation and Renew Records/BMG will release Bear’s Sonic Journals: Johnny Cash, At The Carousel Ballroom, April 24 1968, an historic and never-heard live concert recorded in San Francisco by innovative sound wizard Owsley Stanley.

The members of the Grateful Dead remember living with Bear for several months in 1966 in Los Angeles, where the refrigerator contained only bottles of milk and a slab of steak, meat they fried and ate straight out of the pan. When he was younger, Bear read about the Eskimos eating only fish and meat and became convinced that humans are meant to be exclusively carnivorous. His all-meat diet is a well-known example. “I’ve seen him send his eggs back three times at Howard Johnson’s.” “He can be very anal retentive, on a certain level, on a genius level,” says Paul Kantner of Jefferson Airplane. Ttp://Bear has always lived in a quite particular world. However…if he was the only representative I would discount the idea. The name “Owsley” was linked to cheap LSD of good quality.” Interesting character…counterculture all the way…doesn’t surprise me that he would eat a zero-carb diet.
From the ‘Sunset Strip Riots’ in Los Angeles, to the Summer of Love in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury was described as “the biggest LSD party in history.”. This amount of quality LSD was responsible for the wide popularity of the drug, and the development of an anti-authoritarian, anti-war counter-culture. Between 19, Stanley produced more than 1.25 million doses of LSD. His LSD is still known for its quality and purity. And I found he was considered “important in the explosion of 1960’s psychedelia culture.” “Stanley was one of the first people to manufacture mass quantities of LSD. Sounds like he lived a “hard life” not matter where he was. Just read through the post and like Werner thought he looked pretty bad.
