The Relevant & Cutting Edge Zappa

Here’s a YouTube vid with Frank Zappa on ’The Cutting Edge’ tv program circa 1986. In the first part Frank shares his views on the music record industry & as usual Frank was right on target. Back then it was the ’Hair Bands’ being marketed & mass produced by record execs, each spewing out the same formulated power ballad. Now 20 years later it’s the ‘American Idol Pop Star’ & media driven mentality that dictates the airwaves.

The rest of the vid deals with FZ’s views on parenting, sex & the PMRC.
