Sanders was born in Kansas City,Missouri. He dropped out of Missouri University in 1958 and hitchhiked to New York City’s Greenwich Village. He wrote his first major poem, Poem from Jail, on toilet paper in his cell after being jailed for protesting against nuclear proliferation in 1961.
In 1962, he founded the avant-garde journal, Fuck You: A Magazine of the Arts. Sanders opened the Peace Eye Bookstore (147 Avenue A in what was then the Lower East Side), which became a gathering place for bohemians and radicals.
Sanders graduated from New York University in 1964, with a degree in Classics. In 1965, he founded The Fugs with Tuli Kupferberg. The band broke up in 1969 and reformed in 1984.
In 1971, Sanders wrote The Family, a profile of the events leading up to the Tate-LaBianca murders. He obtained access to the Manson Family by posing as a "Satanic guru-maniac and dope-trapped psychopath."
As of 2006, Sanders lives in Woodstock, New York where he publishes the Woodstock Journal with his wife of over 36 years, the writer and painter Miriam R. Sanders. He also invents musical instruments including the Talking Tie, the microtonal Microlyre and the Lisa Lyre, a musical contraption involving light-activated switches and a reproduction of Da Vinci's Mona Lisa.

This is a remarkable production. The echo is a little overwhelming but the yodeling and lyrics are wonderful.
@bartwreck
ken, yes, he was one of the first i interviewed back in 2001 for my first book YODEL-AY-EE-OOOO.... he had some great insights but does not consider himself in the league of great yodelers but, still, one of the great spirits who happens to do a pretty good yodel to highlight the message... There's "Yodeling Yippie" from back then and "Government Surveillance Yodeling Blues" from a 2004 Fugs release.

Ed Sanders yodeling? I had no idea! Really nice. I knew he could yodel in the canyon but was ignorant of his singing skills....Poor Richard Denning must've been drinking early after this job..."I should never have done "Black Lagoon"! Look what they've got me doing now!"
@EnoVarma
Damn, I'm back in the yodeling part of the YouTube.
