American TOP 40 (HOT AC) - July 3-4, 2010

AT40 (HOT AC) – JULY 3-4, 2010

Few things happening this weekend:
Aside from being the 4th of July, it also marks the 40th anniversary of the AT40. Segments throughout this weekend's show pay tribute to the last 40 years with various audio clips and memories of the countdown.

A little tidbit: It was originally a 3-hour show when it debuted back in 1970, as opposed to the 4 hours running presently.

AT40 has also revamped its website that now includes an archive of charts dating back to 2001.

As for the chart, little movement to speak of this week. One of last week's breakouts is new this week, as Daughtry's "September" brings the band more than one song on the chart. No song moves higher than two spots this week.

Also having that honor are Train, Rob Thomas, John Mayer, Ke$ha, Kelly Clarkson and Lady GaGa with three.

Nice! Love the chart archives. I did not realize the AT40 Hot AC chart went all the way back to August of 2001. Now I can copy the complete archive back to that time, despite the slow movement here. Unfortunately no week-on-chart column, but maybe that's a good thing! ;)

I think they should try to archive the CHR charts back from the very beginning. That would be great to see!

Hey, I just noticed that all of the archived Hot AC charts before May 29th, 2010 have had the recurrents removed! Which means that in for all practical purposes, they have archived the official weekly Mediabase charts. Don't know why the last month of archives have the recurrents added back, but just wondering if this is the beginning of a change on how the charts are tabulated. Maybe nothing will come of it, but I'm not sure why the descrepency.

The charts appear to be the same ones Casey Kasem used on American Top 20 with the 21-40 spots included. Same with the CHR charts pre-Ryan. They were the AT40 with Casey charts.

The real treat with this weekend's AT40 was the tribute to 40 years of the show and plenty of credit to Casey, with a few classic clips played. Also, if you listened carefully during the classic clip montages, they even included one of the show Dick Clark guest hosted.
