Thread Name: Current US censorship of music?
Subject: Current US censorship of music?
A friend mentioned that Paul Gambaccini on his BBC radio 2 show on Sat 15 April mentioned that a current US band had re-recorded Dylan anti-war song(s) - I'm not sure if it was one or more - and had been roundly condemned by the Bush administration for unamerican (or unpatriotic) activity.
My details may be a bit fuzzy, I didn't hear the radio show myself.
Does anyone know the facts or can anyone point to a source for the facts?
