Frank Zappa makes a STRONG point on the lack of honesty and removal of craftsmanship as values in America. Look how long ago this was. Also, Moon Unit is a pretentious "Val" girl herself. "You don't wanna know, hehe" *Hair flip*
If there's money to be made, there's always been variety of media outlets to facilitate marketing it. Take a look the cell phone, a status symbol for Hollyweird stars/starlets years before it became fashionable elsewhere, now as common a trendy 'appliance' as the drive-thru choke and puke eatery.
Actually, that's not bad for VCRs that were available in 1982. A lot of old live shows like that have been lost forever. The networks/stations that produced them either never recorded them, threw the tapes away or the tapes were destroyed by fire/flood or just from being played too many times.
This works off the false premise that Frank Zappa accidentally created the valley girl, as opposed to simply bringing attention to the concept, which, it turns out, is actually pretty abstract. This basically amounts to the shortcomings of a brain that literally has not finished developing and the tendency of adults to associate themselves with the era of their upbringing, thereby mistakenly associating a constantly shifting culture with those aforementioned shortcomings and a perceived problem.
@wolfganggangwolfe Well where do they come from if they're not installed? Human beings pass values from one to another, you don't just learn how to be a decent person all by yourself.
He was soooo good at interviews!
We interrupt your regular off topic youtube discussion for an important message:
Lol "Moon Unit"
I Believe This Was A Video Clip Of ABC News' Good Morning America's Report On Frank And Moon Zappa On Tuesday Morning, September 21, 1982.
Frank Zappa seems helluva sarcastic at the end here :P
In This Clip, From 0:05 To 0:36, It Was ABC News' Good Morning America Re-Join Video Clip From Tuesday Morning, September 21, 1982.
He's so suave.
Moon looks like she's in trouble for almost making Zappa "mainstream"
What an amazing video! "we're reaching the point of cultural pollution"
Frank despised drug use. All who were in his band had to be top notch musicians which left no room for drugs.
Wrong. He just didn't allow them. He didn't despise them.

@thehapagirl92 Well, nobody talks to that extent but I still hear a lot of "like" and "omgggggg" lol

@TheR88R FORGOT WHAT U INITIALLY WROTE,REMIND ME PLEASE.
Just like all teenagers before and after, who usually (like Moon) turn out fairly normal.
@pretorious700 Agreed, specially how she says how values are "installed"
Frank looks like he just want to get the fuck out of there.
@togonumber nowadays things like this only reach the rest of the world because of youtube. these people had a viral video in 1982. its impressive.
Lets talk about values! That would make great TV 🙄 Said no one ever except 80's talk shows!
What's a Valley girl? Really intellectually stimulating question.
Bob Dylan's and nasal singing backstabber.
@crxted Sure did! I wrote in Frank Zappa for president, once while he was alive and once after he died. :)

I love Cracked.
She is baked!!! and totally generalizing about the SFV
I grew up in the valley it's a great place to live
did you record this with a banana?
3:57 and on is a Classic Answer! (btw, don't y'all hate that tone that the 'interviewer' has? Grrr.)
www.imdb.com/name/nm0953261/?ref_=nv_sr_1 R.I.P.
Values?
@thehapagirl92 Lmao SoCal... how ironic. I live in LA and, yes, they still talk like that.
I thought it was "instilled"...
Like...remember when dude??!:)
@ilonka311 Really? Not to that extent. At least in OC where I live I don't here that alot.

Nobody talks like that here in SoCal anymore.

*yawn*
@TheR88R sorry,not following explain.............
Frank Zappa was not happy!
Pretentious beyond belief. Franks kid and Frank. Stuck up. You bet. Studio Tan still kicks ass though.
Moon Units are the worst interviewees ever.
Teenagers... Ugh
