Frank Zappa on censorship & the PMRC!

Here's part 1, 2, & 3 of a 1986 interview with Frank Zappa about the PMRC on "School Beat." The relationship between art & action is still being debated- see Jello Biafra's High Priest For Harmful Matter for his experiences with Zappa, the PMRC, and of course the whole Frankenchrist trial.

  1. You should check out his interview with Howard Stern, it's somewhere on youtube. All they talked about was the censorship issue, except for one point when Frank rips into Live Aid.
