Official release #88, Zappa.com announces a new release: "It's the eve of the 25th anniversary of Frank Zappa's Testimony before Congress. And to mark this anniversary we are releaseing Congress Shall Make No Law...This is your chance to reconnect with Freedom of Speech and celebrate on of the great advantages of living in a democracy. Music. Legal and available." So what's on the cd?? We get the impression it's the spoken testimony and statements mixed with previously unreleased synclavier stuff.
Gail Zappa always said that FZ always made a point to "educate" his audience as well as entertain them. She continued on that note with this release, an informative document that focuses on the importance of FZ's testimonies to fight censorship. FZ's address to the Senate Committee Hearings in 1985 and to the Maryland State Legislature in 1986 are featured here in their entirety combined with various synclavier and interview excerpts found in the Vault.
