Article sur Frank Zappa

"Aside from creating some revolutionary music as a composer and producer, Zappa was also a staunch advocate of free speech.

His ribald lyrics attracted the ire of many conservative groups and perhaps as a result of this, Zappa is the only musician to ever have a "Warning: Explicit Lyrics'' sticker placed on an instrumental album (Jazz From Hell, which won a Grammy)."

Le reste de l'article ici.


update de Wikipedia :
After Frank Zappa campaigned against music censorship in 1985, the sticker was attached to his next album, Jazz from Hell, because of the title of one track, "G-Spot Tornado", although the album is entirely instrumental and contains no lyrics that could be "explicit lyrics"
