Anyone enamored with the Beats need to know about Carol Berge and her clique of maverick poets and artists experimenting with multimedia in the incipient East Village, 1960-66. Berge has since passed on but she first put her legacy into print: the LIGHT YEARS anthology chronicles the group’s involvement with not only Ginsberg and Burroughs, it also tells the story of why the Feds and others may have prevented their Renaissance movement from reaching the status it deserved. Charles Olson, Ed Sanders and of course FUCK YOU Press make an appearance.

Great to see this site up and running, and much thanks for the dedication it took/takes to do all the scanning and uploading. I spent the fall and winter in NYC 1964-65. I visited Peace Eye books, and got to know many of the poets who contributed to Fuck You and C magazine where if I recall, I published something. I own a few copies of both mags, and many books from the period. Some of the ny poets I brought up to Ottawa to read at Carleton University where I taught for 38 years. Ed Sanders, Paul Blackburn and Allen Ginsberg were among those who came in the late Sixties, early Seventies. Those were heady days…in a couple of ways.

Definitely. I have a copy but it is too big to scan and I have never been satisfied with the photos I have taken of it. I’ll try to get it up soon somehow.

I dont think so. It is in Bulletin from Nothing which is published by Pelieu not Sanders.

Should the Ed Sanders/Peter Orlovsky FUCK YOU PRESS page in BULLETIN FROM NOTHING 2 be included here?

Thanks

The majority of the covers are by Sanders himself. There are a few exceptions. Robert LaVigne for Fuck You 5/7, Warhol for 5/8, Claude Pelieu for the Fugs are Coming handbill, and Brainard for the Cantos. The later Peace Eye catalogs might have another designer but I am not sure.

If you are interested in Brainard covers go to the C Press Archive if you havent already: http://realitystudio.org/bibliographic-bunker/c-press-archive/

I would love to see credits to the cover artists (if known), specifically which were designed by Joe Brainard. I know he’s responsible for the Cantos.

Any chance of getting a list of the contents of each issue? (Which issue(s) did Warhol contribute to (if any)?
