The Paper

USA

 
Michigan State University student Michael Kindman started The Paper in late 1965. Dissatisfied with working for the mainstream State News, Kindman began a bold experiment in alternative campus journalism. The Paper gave early voice to the nascent anti-Vietnam War movement and was a beacon of counter-culture.
One of the five founding publications of the Underground Press Syndicate, The Paper brought together National Merit Scholars, Students for a Democratic Society, artists, active-duty soldiers and the University Christian Movement in “the first campus-based underground newspaper in American history.” (www.msupaper.org)

Zap And Other Hungers
By David Freedman, p 11

 

LUMPY GRAVY is not actually the latest of the Mothers' work; it was recorded (and even advertised in underground papers last summer) nearly 1 1/2 years ago for Capitol Records with some of the regular Mothers and a bunch of strangers. Verve Records, a subsidiary of MGM, brought suit and so the album wasn't released until 2 weeks ago. (read more)
