Three decades ago the unlikely trio of Dee Snider, Frank Zappa and John Denver arrived on Capitol Hill to testify on behalf of their fellow musicians rights to freedom of speech. They defended their position against the proposed censorship of their music by an EXPLICIT CONTENT label being placed on albums.
On September 19, 2015 we will commemorate the 30th anniversary of the historic PMRC hearings with the release of "The Filthy Fifteen" app.
Find out the story behind the Parents Music Resource Center instigated by a group of high powered Washington wives. See exclusive photographs from Mark Weiss, who was in Washington DC to document the hearings. Watch Dee Snider of Twisted Sister, Brad Whitford of Aerosmith, Rachel Bolan from Skid Row and others tell us how their creative process was affected by the threatened censorship and the impact it had on their music.
