interesting list multi. says as much about what it bans as what it doesn't. f'instance, it bans lennon's imagine, but not his bring on the lucie:
(alright boys, this is it, over the hill)
we don't care what flag you're waving
we don't even want to know your name
we don't care where you're from or where you're going
all we know is that you came
you're making all our decisions
we have just one request of you
that while you're thinking things over
here's something you just better do
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
well we were caught with our hands in the air
don't despair paranoia is everywhere
we can shake it with love when we're scared
so let's shout it aloud like a prayer
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
we understand your paranoia
but we don't want to play your game
you think you're cool and know what you are doing
666 is your name
so while you're jerking off each other
you better bear this thought in mind
your time is up you better know it
but maybe you don't read the signs
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
free the people now
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
well you were caught with your hands in the kill
and you still got to swallow your pill
as you slip and you slide down the hill
on the blood of the people you killed
stop the killing (free the people now)
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
stop the killing (free the people now)
do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now
bring on the lucie
and tracks from buffalo springfield like for what it's worth and neil young's ohio also get a pass while the youngblood's get together gets the axe. always a problem with censorship, it's so arbitrary.
it was a very bad time in the tri-state that september.
