With the recent efforts to promote civility and decency in the forums, do we really need albums added to the archives with the titles: Motherf**kers G.M.B.H & Co. KG andMotherf**kers Live both by XHOL CARAVAN / XHOL
In both cases, the titles are not censored in the archives. Edited by Easy Livin |

hmmm...tough call. I can definitely see your point, but considering the albums are an artistic "work" rather than the random graffiti of the forums, I'd vote to keep them uncensored unless there's a legality issue. |

Even though I'm the first one who believes there should be civility limits in the forum, I have to agree with James, because it's the title the author has chosen for his work and it has been released like that. I remember in the late 60's the album We're an American Band was banned in USA because it had a picture of the band members naked and the label had to place a white cover over the front, but that's something of the past, there's artistic freedom supported by International Laws, even if I don't like the name of the album.

Nothing new... Zappa Mother of invention's original name was Motherf**ker of invention, but the guys at the recording company didn't like the name... and in the wave of Ivan's quote, the original Abraxas sleeve was banned in my country; the censorship men didn't like the white dove between the legs of a magnificent black magic woman. I don't know if it was for sexist or racist matters...

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |
