Subject: RE: Preserve Politically Incorrect Songs???
Ya can't please everybody, so why try to please anybody? Of course all music exists on a historical timeline. Is your audience there to be educated or entertained? You have to decide the context and let the chips fall where they may BUT YOU MUST ALSO TAKE THE RESPONSIBLITY FOR THE MESSAGE. Someone is bound to take offence at anything. One of my favorite performers and scribes is Kinky Friedman who is about as irreverent as they come. He just tells it like it is.
