- A nice old video of Frank doing a bunch of voter registration Public Service Announcements. You would think he's talking about today's political scene if you didn't know these were recorded in October of 1985. Enjoy some rarely seen Zappa video and remember to vote.
"You can make these people go away"
He would have made a great President. He called out all the bullshit in society through his music. "Nuff said.
thank you for posting this. i will air these once a week on my zappa radio show heard at krvm.org fridays 9pm pacific, midnight eastern, 5am saturday gmt.
Zappa is the MAN!
Zappa riffing on a theme.
We could really use a guy like this right now. His concerts and albums had real, substantial impact on my life, really influenced me as a young guy. Are there any pop or rock or rap acts now getting out and taking real action like this guy did? Most of them are corporate advertising manikins, concerned mainly about how many Instagram followers they have.
Frank, we miss you in 2012!
It's time you ask yourself, "How would Frank Zappa vote?"
Ask yourself. Would Zappa even find voting to be useful nowadays?
Trump no doubt. Can you imagine his thoughts on the Clinton’s, Obama, or Biden?!
@@JonathanNelsonOfficial I’d love to read your explanation on why Frank Zappa would support trump. Or any politician nowadays
@@apothecurio check your notifications if my response went through to read it. The censorship is out of control on CZcams.
@@JonathanNelsonOfficial I highly doubt Zappa would have liked or voted for Trump. He talks about in interviews all the damage that Nixon, Reagan, and Bush Sr had done to the country. If anything I would bet Zappa would find many politicians on both sides to suck, and I could see him voting for an independent.
He was amazing... ❤️
I appreciate the professionalism of this clip, too: Look at how many takes he got done in 7 minutes, and how he didn't waste a second of it.
And I'm coming back to this because people are now coming down on Taylor Swift for suggesting the exact same thing Frank did.
Zappa also said "democracy doesn't work unless you participate "
He's consistent
“How many 15’s was that?”
“15, I think?”
What I can say (as Russian) : if any part of this Zappa's speech was broadcasted in any way (cable of nationwide) - the political system at that time was MILES ahead of what Russia has now.
I miss you in 2023
"do you think all this record rating business is stupid?"
btw, ranxerox rules! :^)
Can somebody tell me what does he say at 5:54? "do you think all this.... is stupid?"
Thanks everyone! and thanks @bigdavej69 for sharing this stuff
"Record-rating business". You know how we rate movies (G / PG / PG-13 / R / NC-17)? They were talking about doing that to music in the 1980s. CDs were still a new medium in 1985, and most music was sold on vinyl albums, or "records" as we called them as we played them in our caves.
the guy saying 3..2..1.. is CLEARLY NOT 18.
I think you do it at the post office.
You register for Selective Service (aka The Draft) at the Post Office. You register to vote at City Hall.
Record Rating, record raiding?
4:15
Hahahahaha
sure miss Frank these days ... if these videos were streamed 24/7 in high schools and colleges across the country, maybe we could get rid of Trump
Unfortunately it makes little difference who you vote for .
Shut up lady!!!
Untrue, especially on a local level where the laws affect you more directly.
it does make a difference, you come to vote, you meet people, if there's is something people don't agree with - you will see. Trust me.
