This comment from Frank Zappa must have been given a great impression in many people who come across it. There are so many ways of passing a message to different audiences of which I think Zappa meant it. Messages that can be passed through different types of music instruments namely; jazz, choral music, drums, pianist and all other material useful to pass the message. These were people who are not literally educated; they were using their natural brains to make their voice heard.

They were talented individuals. Such people know how to interpret messages from people who can’t write and interviewing people who can’t talk and read. This is what was meant by Zappa. Now that I am writing about it clearly make sense. In the past decades people were not educated and some of them were even reluctant to go to school. These people knew how to interpret messages through many ways that the musician, poet can sing his song or praise his poem. 

Zappa’s comment was quoted in order for people to open eyes wide, not to look at what is in front of them, or let me say to think out of the box. That is what the quote “Rock journalism is people who can’t write interviewing people who can’t talk for people who can’t read” meant. In the past years when elders were saying something they talking in parables, in today’s world it is up to us if we want to understand the meaning or not.

Thank you Zappa for this quote!!!!!!!!!!!
