This CD release of Dr. Leary’s "Turn On, Tune In, Drop
Out" is the first ever reissue of the ESP-Disk’ vinyl edition originally
released in1966. This unadorned spoken word recording of the 60’s icon, Timothy
Leary ("the most dangerous man alive"), was recorded at the famous Millbrook,
New York estate just before his famous residency was ended by repeated raids and
arrests by G. Gordon Liddy. Though the album title, Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out,
became a cliched rallying cry for a whole generation, it was presented to the
public here for the first time. In this document he presents his ideas on drugs,
current events and cultural phenomena, with recollections of earlier experiences
and experiments; all delivered in a straight ahead, quiet manner even though the
content is downright subversive and confrontational. An absolute must for anyone
interested in the 1960’s or countercultural thinking of any
era.
