First fuck in music... This is sort of a dumb question,but curiosity has gotten the best of me.
What was the first time that the word fuck was used in a recording?I've noticed that in "We Can Be Good Together" by Jefferson Airplane,they say "tear down the wall,motherfucker".I don't recall hearing it anywhere prior to this,so was this it?

This is from the wikipedia. :)
Perhaps the earliest usage of the word in popular music was the 1938 Eddy Duchin release of the Louis Armstrong song "Ol' Man Mose". The words created a scandal at the time, resulting in sales of 170,000 copies during the Great Depression years when sales of 20,000 were considered blockbuster. The verse reads:
(We believe) He kicked the bucket,
(We believe) Yeah man, buck-buck-bucket,
(We believe) He kicked the bucket and ol' man mose is dead,
(We believe) Ahh, fuck it!
(We believe) Buck-buck-bucket,
(We believe) He kicked the bucket and ol' man mose is dead. ]
