Payola is as old as the music industry and continues today. Contrary to popular belief, the acceptance of payola is legal. The recipients of payola and the reasons behind it are discussed decade-by-decade. The early bribes to the minstrel groups and vaudeville players are traced, as are modern-day payments to disc jockeys and radio station programme directors. Particular attention is paid to 1959 and 1960 when federal investigators attempted to eradicate the practice.
