Among some of my generation on the hippie side the word commercial was a dirty word though, of course, most things in the music industry were commercial whether they were in the singles chart or not. I think the word commercial really meant middle of the road or a singles orientated artist.

In those days, for the most part, most people didn't get the chance to hear your music unless you were played over the media which was very limited. Very different these days. Though the chances of people finding it must be quite limited .. which is why places like Pure Volume exist. There was a small club and pub scene but that was about it really.

Now there's just so much music.
