Ann Arbor Sun

 USA

 
Ann Arbor Sun was a newspaper founded by John Sinclair in November 1968. The newspaper was considered to be the mouthpiece for the White Panther Party for quite some time before the newspaper transitioned to an independent publication spreading views on local issues, left-wing politics, music, and arts. Finally in 1976, the publication of the Ann Arbor Sun was suspended indefinitely. (wikipedia)

Frank Zappa & Captain Beefheart at Cobo Arena
By Paul J. Grant, p 19


I never know what to expect from Frank, and for that I'm eternally grateful. The Mothers have always been just an extension of their head honcho, and he has taken them down technical blind alleys and stairways to heaven. It has been a long and sometimes exhausting job keeping up with him and his. (read more)
