Excerpt from interview with W.A.S.P frontman Blackie Lawless, page 40:
FRANK ZAPPA
When the PMRC stuff was going on he really ran point on that whole thing for everybody. He had been through censorship stuff in the 60s and he had seen this monster rear its ugly head before. He knew it was about guys seeking a higher office, it wasn’t about censorship. We didn’t, we were kids, we were new. The thing I got off of him a few years later was I realised that he was running point for us. Specifically he was catching all the hell, he was paving that path for us to do the music we were doing without really giving it a lot of thought. Without thinking about pressure or being molested, so to speak.
I ran into him about a year before he died. I sat down and told him: "I want to thank you for what you did. I understand now why you did what you did." He was very humble about it; he just shrugged his shoulders and was like, "Hey, I was just doing my job."
