that chick clinging onto Bob could fit in todays world with that straight hair/coat/boots fashion.
this album came out closer to WW1 than it did today
Divine Right's Trip sounds right up your street. It starts as a slow kind of hippie romp, then turns into very light Thomas Wolfe. By far one of my favourites.
Brautigan best beat.

its a blurry line, but not so much looking for hippie as beat kinda stuff though
Really the Blues by Mezz Mezzrow isn't exactly Beat literautre but is kind of a precursor to the movement and the spirit of the Beats.

Bob Kaufman

Kenneth Patchen
Kenneth Rexroth has a great poem where he made up a Japanese poetess and pretended to translate her love poems. I cant remember the name of it but its by far the best beat poem published outside of Ginsberg and corso
