Capitol Journal - Rating Rock and Roll

Frank Zappa notes that since W.A.S.P. signed their new record he doubts there will be a buzz saw on the next cover. Susan Baker: "Super." Zappa disagrees: "...you have done something to an artist. Look, forget about whether you like it. Think of it - what if it were. What if we were all crazy and that really was art. It starts off talking about lyrics, then it goes to covers, then it's to videos, now it's to live concerts. What s next, religion?" Host Hodding Carter steps in and points out that's a fair question and that there are people who would go further than labeling. Tipper Gore believes that the principles of freedom still work alongside with that they're asking for. This pertains only to record and broadcast materials. Carter: "You're worried you can't hold it there?" Zappa goes on to explain his worry about this becoming a domino effect once a precedent is set at labeling. Carter interrupts to say they're out of time, and thanks them.
