''Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention'' is a 1985 album by Frank Zappa. It was originally released in two slightly different versions in the US and Europe. The album's title is a reference to the lobby group, the PMRC, who were campaigning to require record companies to put warning stickers on albums they considered offensive, and to Zappa's former band, the Mothers of Invention. This is Official Release #44. == Release == Following distribution problems with Zappa's album ''Thing-Fish'', which former Barking Pumpkin distributor MCA Records refused to distribute, Zappa made a deal with EMI Records, which would allow ''Them or Us'' and ''Thing-Fish'' to be distributed by Capitol Records in the United States.〔 Zappa wrote a "warning" which appeared on the inner sleeves of these albums, as well as ''Frank Zappa Meets the Mothers of Prevention'', which stated that the albums contained content "which a truly free society would neither fear nor suppress", and a "guarantee" which stated that the lyrics would not "cause eternal torment in the place where the guy with the horns and pointed stick conducts his business."〔 The liner notes also contained a quote from Senator Ernest Hollings, who testified during the PRMC hearings: "…if I could find some way constitutionally to do away with it (language in music ), I would," as well as Zappa's oft-repeated liner notes request for his fans to register to vote. The original US version of the album contains the track, "Porn Wars" — a sound collage featuring excerpts from PMRC hearings. This track was omitted from non-US versions, and replaced with three other pieces: "I Don't Even Care", co-written by Zappa and Johnny "Guitar" Watson, and two instrumental tracks — "One Man, One Vote" (a Synclavier composition) and "H.R. 2911", which collates some of the backing music from "Porn Wars", without the PMRC hearing excerpts and other dialogue. A later reissue by Rykodisc compiled both versions of the album onto one disc.
