From an Eldorado newspaper site, http://www.myeldorado.net/YFZ%20Pages/YFZ040305.html

Audio clips of preaching of "prophet" Warren Jeffs and his father Rulon.

Well... here is something music related!
"
Strangely, the audio clips reveals Jeffs instructing a group of teachers on the history of rock and roll music. In it Jeffs claims the 60's rock group The Beatles were trained to perform by an unnamed homosexual black man who was a drug user. Jeffs said that before they received the training the British singers were "pingy-pangy unnoticed useless people nobody would hire." However, after learning the black beat, the group became world famous and all other music has followed that pattern, Jeffs said.

Jeffs then cautioned his audience that when they listen to rock music, they are "enjoying the spirit of the black race," an activity he says will "rot the soul and lead the person to immorality, to corruption, to forget their prayers, to forget God. Thus the whole world has partaken of the spirit of the Negro race."

At one point Rulon Jeffs says, "The call of God Almighty is on me to establish the holy united order in Zion and that's what I'm about to do...God being my helper....I am going forward and continuing building the storehouse and living the holy united order and God is going to handle anyone who fights against it."

Following another long pause the senior Jeffs can be heard asking someone nearby, "Do we have the lawyers?"

To which a second voice, believed to be Warren Jeffs replies. "Yes we do."

That is followed by a short pause and then Rulon Jeffs proclaiming, "We have the lawyers!...and God will fight our battles....we will continue celestial law and God will fight our battles."

Still another long pause is ended when Rulon Jeffs asks the crowd, "Are you worried about what the State of Utah and the State of Arizona are going to do?"

That draws a resounding, "No!" from the congregation.

"Okay, we'll go on," the elder Jeffs says.
