- This is the Frank Zappa appearance on the ABC Morning Show with Rick Rizzi. Due to copyright claims I was forced to make a couple of edits to remove the copyrighted music. None of the interview section was cut. This is part 1. Enjoy
What I love is how Frank always has a look on his face that expresses that he is simply disgusted with these people because they don't have a valid point to stand on.
i know im randomly asking but does anyone know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my password. I love any help you can offer me
@Cayson Reign Instablaster :)
But he kept doing the shows
Strange to watch US daytime TV where people are polite and relaxed even though they disagree. Time has not been kind to us.
Polite only on tv, different story behind the scenes, even worse back then.
Regis, Kathy Lee and Frank were civil, that other guy tried to dominate the conversation by constantly talking over Frank when he was speaking.
@@deerobinson557 That’s how I see it too. Rizzi didn’t strike me as the slightest bit polite or relaxed. He also flatly declared that nothing Zappa could say could possibly change his mind. Someone who makes that sort of declaration is not discussing and not even really debating. He’s merely attempting to shout his opponent down.
"I know humans are conditioned by what they hear, and I know Frank agrees with me on that..."
"I don't!"
Rick, run.
Humans are conditioned by what they hear. You're all on your knees in the USA for BLM
@@uomunumerous2350 Yep, everyone. Not a single person attempts to think independently, including you. Don't forget to attend your ass-wiping seminar every Sunday.
This was so interesting.
When the guy explained it as the inverse opposite you could see Frank’s interest was piqued. But then they cut to commercial and forgot all about it. TV sucks.
But he really does,.. he was being argumentative
I miss this guy
Me too but I got his music and a great audio set up!
Has Rizzi just come from performing surgery?
Great line, " if it were up to us the national bird would be an ostrich". Just brilliant.
funny thing is, I was exactly 10 years old at this time, listening to exactly those records... had no clue of whatever they were about and when i did, i understood it was naughty.. and that made it funny..on the other hand, what scared the hell out of me at age of 10 was the video of Thriller.. which is not explicit rated... nonsense discussion,later when i was a teenager we bought records BECAUSE they had an explicit lyric sticker on them!
I love Frank Zappa & those 80s Suits! Zappa is my biggest musical inspiration & I wear 80s suits all day, everyday with pride
I love frank zappas honesty and assertiveness, i always try to imitate those characteristics but you know life... it's always trying to turn you back into a normal boring fake person.
"Concerned Parent". That's like the worst two words to have together under your name.
Rossi: I have to interrupt you here.
Zappa: Oh, okay, go ahead. (Smirks)
knock knock... who's there?
rick rizzi. rick rizzi who??? EXACTLY!!!!
Great man and an american who i respected. Frank zappa. A beacon
"Rick Rizzi", sounds like the name of a really really shitty Pizza joint.
Rick shitsi 💩💩
Holy shit!! Is that RICK RIZZI?!! Long time no see, Rick. LOOOoOoooOOOOOooOoooOOnnnnnnnnnnng time.
26 years later, the kids have learned to avoid Wal-Mart when purchasing music because they hawk the censored version of just about everything...
I was born this exact day.
"Concerned parent" is a fountain of weasel words and other vagueries.
"You All know Frank"...huh...?? A Regis Philbin audience?!
That's funny...
Yeah.that caught me off guard.doubt most of them knew of him.
They greatly exaggerate the percentage of popular songs from 1985 that "advocated incest, rape, murder, and Satan worship." They make it sound like every ten-year-old in American mainly listened to GG Allin.
Zappa Tears A Dingaling Apart, Pt. 37. I wish we had him today.
Frank would have made a great president 😪🇺🇸☮
Can someone tell me where they dug up this Rizzi tool?
“As intelligent human beings...” He’s assuming that most people are intelligent 🙄
nah he just knows everybody assumes they themselves are intelligent ;)
Rizzi 👏👏
Lol. I love frank rip
History is cruel. Rick hangs out to dry FOREVER.
Heres some names for you, Frank Zappa(Your here), George Carlin, Carl Sagan, Christopher Hitchens. Great MEN who are no longer with us when we so badly need them ..
Rizzi and Zappa look like brothers here
Zappa owns though
physicalgraffiti714 both italians. Southern italians.
Wog Boys!
As one who's been both a longtime Zappa fan (since age 11, in 1971), who always preferred his music over his theatrics & politics, & a performing musician & songwriter, also a parent & grandparent who cared about what kind of 'input' went into my kids' thinking, I've always seen some validity in both sides of this argument.
Anyone who tries can think of situations in life that call for complete freedom of expression, & other situations that call for self-restraint, for whatever reasons; the truth is somewhere in between the extremes of opinion. It's actually a complex discussion which is beyond the scope of this comment.
The one thing I can say about this clip is: of all the people in the world to sit in 1:1 debate against Frank Zappa about this sensitive & volatile subject, who is this idiot, a former X-rated bookstore owner, a "smut-peddler-become-born-again-Christian" with a half can of spray in his bouffant hairdo, who is this inconsequential fool to be privileged to even sit next to a genius like Zappa in the same forum?
The whole thing is an insult to Zappa's intelligence. The combined intellect of everyone else on the screen leaves off where Zappa's begins.
Even though I personally believe that sometimes a certain amount of censorship, or better yet, self-restraint on the part of creative artists as to how they express themselves, can actually spawn more refined works of greater artistic value, Zappa was standing up for everyone against what threatens to become a totalitarian, authoritarian society based on one set of values, dangerous stuff indeed, & to make his point he often suffered the indignity of being pitted head-to-head against people not worthy to shine his shoes.
even in the 80s the game show talk show host had the same haircut. i thought it would atleast look more 80s
@dlhitch2007 I think he rushed to the show after pulling a shift at the local emergency room
And he's only 45 here...
Regis looks the exact same!
Rick Rizzi is now a legendary figure in American history and a true national institution --while nobody remembers who that guy Frank Zappa was.
sternumagnum - nobody remembers who Frank Zappa was? I think not.
Brendan, have you ever considered a position on the Supreme Court?
Excuse me? I hope you're joking...!
Gyus, fix your humor antenna!..
Rizzi is an orderly (changes bed pans)
Rizzi = " nobody's going to tell me nothin "
"Oh no, I've heard bad things being said! Now I have no control or individual thought, I can only do as these mysterious words tell me! OH NO!" - People like Rick Rizzi
this whole thing was just a san maritz bakery ad
Rick Rizzi proving to everyone he hasn't got the first clue what hes talking about, and that he obviously has a hatred of Frank. This should of been called the Rick Rizzi interview, because he never shuts his pie hole.
@Camlaserbones Rick Rizzi- teen wolf / nurse
1:05 basically todays generation of kids in a nutshell
To bad the kids didn't listen to ( Trouble every day ) or ( Uncle Remus ) or their parents for that matter ! Perhaps they'd learn something !
Gee, Frank really became a talkshow person didn't he ?
Much Ado about nothing looking back at it !
At least the media stopped thinking of Zappa as a kooky beat-nick lol... this was 1986 what would he think of the state of things in 2019 ?
Frank Zappa once said "There is music my children listen to that I don't approve of...." but he meant it in a stylistic fashion--not lyrical. He'd probably feel the same over anything he felt lacked a level of creativity that influenced his works.
What I really like about Zappa was his early music, he was nobody's fool, an incredible belief in himself ...no pandering to to special interest groups, he actually was an inviromentalist without hitting us over the head with it ...I appreciate him more now, than when he was alive ...
is rizzi looking like he is a male nurse?
tito santana Rick the impotent male bimbo.
I was thinking dental assistant.
@dlhitch2007 because he's a nurse.
Totalitarianism. Yeah, land of the free as long as no one rises above the mediocrity.
Is that Kathy Lee? Sorry i'm Australian we didn't get this show. Btw she's hot
Rick WHO? What a turkey. Frank was a genius, and whether you agree with him or not, you should admire his prolific achievements as a unique musician.
+Zugbruck Musik Why? Because he's highly opinionated like Frank but disagrees? He's got his say.
Stop saying Frank was a genius for Christ sake..he was very creative, let's leave it that.
@@petermaxwell2965 you have a problem with Zappa being a genius, he was and nothing wrong with pointing it out
@@tunastunesrecords I hate the word ..& it's overuse !
@@petermaxwell2965 well with Zappa it's an appropriate word so we're not going to stop using it cos some dude on the internet hates it and told us to stop 😂
@gurra9 And also the fact that America was founded on the belief of religious freedom, and to escape from the religious reign of the church of England. Not everybody is a christian and so the fact that he's a born again christian shouldn't even have been mentioned.
And it don't help when men whom "spoke to/with God" changed from the few & far-between to about a dozen or so with a satellite dish, like it did in the '80's. Ever hear of The 700 Club? A late friend's aunt was drawn into bankruptcy by them, and had to she them to recover it... because you know what their [internal] motto is: "Give us your money, and we'll do your thinking for you!" :(
7:50
Rick Rizzi has an axe to grind-FZ knows the deal-where's the part where Frank sets this clown straight?!
Anybody else curious what Madonna video was shown? :I
It was burning up
I wonder how the PMRC would've reacted to Cardi B WAP. 😆
Lmao
Are Frank and Rick related?
Good God Ahmet ????
And I thought that people with beard was cool.
Why is Rick Rizzi wearing a blouse?
Rick Rizzi rolled in frum Rivahead
And gave F. Zappa da bizniss
He did....??
or, are you mocking Regis?
Frank da man.
what i believe it is that parents are so ready to blame everything but them selves for what children are doing or whats happening in the world. In this case they believe that rock is one to blame for corrupting children, if a child really gets corrupt from music then its the parents job to set them strait and say hey this is whats bad and this whats good. People are so afraid to simply admit that they were wrong and so they'd rather bring the world down than admit to their mistake.
common, if it rains and you are outside without a rain coat what happens. 2 things are true and if you do not admit you are full of shit.. we are vessels conditioned by our inviroment and surroundings. and it does take an MASSIVE effect. but zappa himself said that about mtv later , so. as he said it, it was about words in the first place. mtv took words and made them visible and that created echo chambers for the fasion and drug industry. in the video to bobby brown you just see the band, i translated it with 36 and i wish i never did. So frank was on the brink to understand that rick was right. but if it just was records and you as an artist arent allowed to write what you want it would be screwed.sadly it isnt.
@@KingCrimson82 totally agree, I think looking back at my comment I could’ve been a little more diplomatic about what I said. I absolute agree that people are influcened by the world around them which include the music they listen to, however I also believe it’s the parents job to educate their child on what’s acceptable and what isn’t so if they do see something troubling like what’s presented in these songs they are equipped to realize that these songs and what they sing about is not something to repeat. Also I should say I actually don’t like what many of these artists sing about, I just think they have a right to say it and people if realize “hey this is troubling and I don’t like it, I won’t buy” then it won’t exist anymore, or at least in main stream media. Also I think the pmrc could’ve been a great tool to parents letting them know what songs are troubling and creating a news letter or something to let parents know what is perhaps something to look out for.
Wow…. Rick burnt Frank new one
Theres a lot of people now that dont like christian music, the same kind of thing couild have been used today for some people to do the same thing
what?
...not.
Regis is right, it did turn the kids growing up to be monsters. Look at what has gone on in Iraq/Afganastan by the U.S. soldiers, they deal death like it was a card game. Too much time and lack of parents being home or even caring. A view of how and why the muslim right wingers see they homes being taken over by freedoms of large company's money impact on their community.
theguyisinthailand They wouldn't have been there in the first place if it were known as A WAR BASED ON LIES. TRUTH .
@@DVincentW Or if Clinton was more aggressive after the World Trade Center bombing, yadda-yadda, etcetera & so-on....
Frank saw the handwriting on the wall, look where we are today !!
And now we have Rap Crap ??? Not Music !!
And THE MUSIC INDUSTRY IS DEAD OR HAS A SERIOUS ILLNESS !!!
You should listen to "Promiscuous" on Broadway The Hard Way. Zappa would've embraced hip hop, had he lived longer.
Wrong. You made up,your own narrative, not his. His is, do your own thing... I'll do mine. You failed.,you don't know frank.
Frank is missed. I wish he were still around to push back on cancel culture. He would have mocked snowflakes to no end.
