r.u. sirius is writing a book about counterculture and needs a little research assistance. if you can help with any of the following, please forward your responses to me. help get yourself & the jakeneck crew a research credit!

Dan and Friends,

I need the following details, with sources when possible, and links or copies to sources when possible. I'll probably have another bunch in a couple of weeks when I do the final pass over the entire book.

thanks

1. How many times was Lenny Bruce arrested?
2. I need a popular advertising slogan or copy from the 1950s that conveys a sense of instant gratification.
3. I'm looking for the date of this Charlie Parker quote. "They teach you there's a boundary line in music, but man, there's no boundary line in art." It was quoted from something called "In Music" but I'm not sure if that's a book or an article.
4. Appx. how many former black slaves were living in the US at the start of the 20th Century?
5. When was a Lord Buckley song containing the lines "Hipsters, flipsters and finger poppin'daddies knock me your lobes" released?
6. When was Dianne DiPrima's poetry book "This Kind of Bird Flies Backwards" first published?
7. When did Plymouth (the auto company) use the ad slogan: "Plymouth is tripping out this year." (probably somewhere from 1967-1969)
8. When did Deborah Davis' claim that her friend Mary Pinchot Meyer smoked marijuana in the White House with JFK first appear in the Washington Post or on the Associated Press wire? (It should be some time in the 80s, I'm pretty sure.). A copy ? or a link to a copy of the article would be particularly helpful here.
9. Did the Merry Pranksters start their famous trip around America in the bus called Further in 1964 or 1963?
10. Can anyone find a Daniel Ellsberg quote that shows that he was moved by, or was moved to acknowledge ambiguous feelings about the war, when he witnessed the demonstration at the Pentagon in 1967?
11. When was the song "Smiling Faces" by Traffic released?
12. Who wrote the lyrics for the Jefferson Airplane song "Volunteers"? For "We Can Be Together?"
13. When did the following songs enter the American Top 40? Like a Rolling Stone - Bob Dylan; Eve of Destruction - Barry McGuire; We Gotta (or Got To) Get Out of this Place - The Animals; Have You Seen Your Mother Baby Standing in the Shadows - Rolling Stones; 19th Nervous Breakdown - Rolling Stones
14. When were the following albums released? (Month and year, rather than just year) Revolver - The Beatles; Blonde on Blonde - Dylan
15. After a bomb exploded in a Manhattan townhouse, killing three of its members, did anybody ever get seriously injured or killed by a Weather Underground action? And if the answer is yes -- if it happened after 1974, please get as much context as you can.
16. When was the Weather Underground communique "New Morning/Changing Weather" issued?
17. Can anybody find a full copy of Robin Morgan's 1969 or 1970 piece "Goodbye To All That" (either a link or send along as an attachment. WARNING: The first link you come across is probably dead.)
18. Can anybody find the exact Keith Richards quote from a Rolling Stone interview, probably between 1968-1970 to the effect that the Rolling Stones would be on the barricades if it looked like their was actually going to be a revolution?
19. I need a quote from Newsweek or Time issues immediately after (or during) Woodstock praising the people at the event.
20. Bob Dylan and Huey Newton once had a meeting, probably in 1971 when Dylan's song "George Jackson" was popular or very soon after that, but not necessarily. When was that and, if possible, where? Did Dylan donate any of his profits from the song "George Jackson" to the Black Panthers?
21. Did Allen Ginsberg appear in any official capacity at the 1972 Democratic National Convention?
