[edit] Duration and stages of the Jazz Ban?

This section really needs filled out, to establish the extent/dates when there was something which really qualifies as a ban, when there was a one-for-one exchange quota which effectively operated like a ban, when it was possible to circumvent a ban by reclassifying as a "classical" performance (such as Ornette Coleman in 1965), and when any restrictions were lifted. The question of whether/when there was a ban on BBC radio play also needs clarified: for example (staying with jazz), the BBC broadcast Ornette Coleman at Bracknell in 1978; and outside jazz, DJs like John Peel were broadcasting sessions and live performances by American bands during the 70s.
