What the hell was the reason for this?

It was some antiquated law to do with the performing rights society. They beleived that constant radio play for a band would inhibit record sales so a law was drawn up saying that the BBC could only play a certain amount of recorded material per day & that was only singles. If they wanted to play album tracks they had to get bands in & record them playing live hence the existence of so many things such as the John Peel Sessions & BBC recorded live concerts

There seems to be merit to the idea, but terrible execution. Sort of like finance reform in the states.

Only diffrence is, when you **** up FR, the people suffer.

I picked The Who. Zeppelin are hugely overrated.

For those of you who are new, Gentlemen Johnny is not here for the advancement of insightful discussion, he's here to **** with you.

Boo boo, you listening to him is inexcusable. Get with the times man.
