It was classic Legion. Al Gore's wife Tipper was pursuing a crusade against raw lyrics and she'd fenagled a Senate hearing. Frank basically shut the whole issue down by pointing out the expectations. For example, if albums could get R and X ratings, then artists would be forced to spice up their lyrics in order to secure those sought-after ratings. A G rating would of course be the kiss of death in the teen music market. And so on. And his countenance, and sharpness of wit and clarity of thinking.....He was unbeatable and it was easy for everyone to see that. And then there was the best part. The goofy Groucho-like brows, the long ponytail and the jet-black moustache and goatee. It was like a bullfight and Zappa was the Hippie Matador.
