Willie Nelson's new record...Cover question...

**Kane Knight** · 08-28-2005, 03:24 PM

So I'm not a fan, but I heard about this on the radio, that Nelson's album was "censored" by Wal-Mart, because a pot leaf was unacceptable as a cover.

So now I'm curious. I know other countries often have edited covers and censored music, and we've got quite the number of foreigners. Pot leaf or Palm Tree worldwide?

(I care less about the music and more about the advocacy issues, but still...)

One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.� --John Rogers
