@NativePortlander1970 He was more articulate and relevant than anyone else in that room, with the exception of John Denver and Frank Zappa.

I was listening to a podcast about the whole Tipper Gore thing and I have always remembered that line in "A Room with a View" because it seemed so out of place from the rest of the movie. When I saw the movie came out in 85, which means it was being made at the start of the music nonsense, it all fell into place! Lol
@FoxyQueen I could see Denver dressing up, but not Zappa, he was too gonzo
