While many radio stations are rushing to edit their music libraries of dirty words, many people are wondering what's really behind this new government crackdown.
This week, it's Taboo Tunes, the clash between authority and "sex, drugs & Rock N Roll", the history of repressive governments, busybodies, and self appointed moral guardians. Peter Blecha, who is also the author of Wired Wood: The Origins of the Electric Guitar, has been published in such periodicals as Life magazine, Vintage Guitar, Discoveries, Seattle Weekly, Radio Guide, Feedback, The Monthly, and on liner-notes on many LPs & CDs
Allan and his guests will discuss firestorms of controversy that have engulfed brave artists like Woody Guthrie, Elvis Presley, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, the Dead Kennedy's, Madonna, Nirvana, Rage Against The Machine...and many others.
