2/4. Kate Thornton paints a vulgar picture of the music industry's merchandising approach to rock and pop. This instalment recalls the 1970s, atime of new and scarier levels of branding and packaging of acts, from the Bay City Rollers to the Sex Pistols. MTV followed, further- and irreversibly-advancing the notion of music as product. With input from Simon Cowell , Pete Waterman , Rob Stringer and Nicky Chapman.
