Footage of Neal Cassady speaking

I don't think that I've ever seen video of Neal Cassady speaking. I have a CD of him speaking but I don't remember ever seeing a video of him speaking before now. If anyone has anymore Cassady videos, I'd love to see them.

"It was cowboy neil at the wheel." That is the first film of neil that I have ever seen. Is he still alive?

Or not yard, but along some tracks. He passed out drunk at night in only a t-shirt and jeans on.

That too bad, I wouldnt picture him dying in that way. Not to say that I have any other picture of how he would have died but you know.

I just looked up neil on wikipedia and this is what they have to say about his death. On Saturday, February 3, 1968, Cassady attended a wedding party in San Miguel de Allende. After the party he went walking along a railroad track to reach the next town, but passed out in the cold and rainy night wearing nothing but a T-shirt and jeans. In the morning, he was found in a coma by the track and taken to the closest hospital, where he died a few hours later on February 4, four days short of his forty-second birthday.
The exact cause of Cassady's death remains uncertain. Those who attended the wedding party confirm that he took an unknown quantity of Secobarbital, a powerful barbiturate sold under the brand name of Seconal, that can easily lead to overdose. Cassady was not a heavy drinker, though he may have participated in a toast to the bride and groom. The physician who performed the autopsy wrote simply "general congestion in all systems;" when interviewed later he stated that he was unable to give an accurate report, because Cassady was a foreigner and there were drugs involved

I saw some great footgae of him driving further and talking a while back. theres a kesey website that sells TONS of videos of the merry pranksters and neal that I've wanted to pick up. like 10-15 volumes iirc. I think maybe $150 for all of em. should be a great buy considering how much acid they took and how much they filmed and how many years they were hanging out with neal
