Robin Valk's analysis here makes total sense. Of course, he's talking about a time when radio stations had needletime (only a specific number of hours of recorded music per day) restrictions. Commercial stations could only play 9 hours of recorded music a day, and Radio 1 12 hours. These rules forced radio controllers to look for ways of putting out live music, and other loopholes, which stopped them going for the easy way out and playing safe - as they do today.
