🗣🎸#19September 1985.
On this day of 40 years ago, 3 prominent musicians were admitted for hearings at the US Senate, in front of the #PMRC (Parents Music Resource Center) commitee.
PMRC at that time was not only aiming to put the (in)famous Parental Advisory sticker☝️but they were arguing to introduce a rating system based on objectionable lyrics for Rock albums!
PMRC became in the years the main target for musicians of all genres, and these 3 guys were widely regarded as "The Holy Trinity" in defense of Rock Music and freedom of expression and against censorship:
🧠 #FrankZappa "The Brain"
🔥 #DeeSnider "The Fire"
❤️ #JohnDenver "The Heart"
In the comments the complete hearings on that day👇
