[jdelachjr2002]

This week's At40: The '70s will spotlight 6/9/1973. I will not be spotlighting the usual debuts/droppers here because the chart displayed here is vastly different from the one that appeared in Billboard. Billboard was changing its' Hot 100 and after the chart was given to AT40, the Billboard people realized there were some errors and a new chart was made albeit too late for AT40 to use. Here are the Top 40 songs that will be aired on AT40 accompanied by its' actual ranking on Billboard for that week:

40: CLOSE YOUR EYES - EDWARD BEAR (#41)
39: LET'S PRETEND - THE RASPBERRIES (#40)

32: GIVE IT TO ME - J. GEILS BAND (#34)
31: NO MORE MR. NICE GUY - ALICE COOPER (#31)

Extras:
"Vacation" - The Go-Go's
"I Heard It Through The Grapevine" - Marvin Gaye

To update on the 6/13/1987 show after listening to KQLL, I suspect Premiere must have deleted "Vacation" from this show. "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" stayed in.

NOTES:

• It's interesting to find Restless Heart in the Top 40 here, in the middle of what I discovered some months back was basically a country crossover drought in the second half of the 80s. Given how most hit music then was synthesized or otherwise "processed within an inch of its life", as I once heard it described, it's not terribly surprising. Even "I'll Still Be Loving You" had "processed" influences in its sound.
  
• Casey described "Meet Me Halfway" as "lookin' Top 10 bound". If only...

NOTES:

• You think some of our #1s in the past two decades had long runs? Try 21 weeks at #1 - that's how long "Movin' On" by Hank Snow spent on the Country charts back in 1950.
  
• Oddly enough, that story was featured right before #24 Van Stephenson, who, incidentally, would go on to be one-third of the country group BlackHawk.
  
• Dpping? That's an interesting abbreviation you got going there. ;)

Casey's Top 40 Dance Hits of the 1980's

I just wonder how on earth does this relate to this thread? And what were the other songs not listed?

It's only mildly related, we will NEVER hear this show in the AT40 series but I can give you the complete listing: oldradioshows.com/ct40/052690sct40.html

Forgot to add Carole King's "I Feel The Earth Move" to the extras column of the 6/26/1971 show. "I Feel The Earth Move" was played by Premiere as one of the optional extras this week. "Teen Angel" and "Too Young" were both kept in the show as I mentioned earlier.

^So many good songs!!

[Libra]

If Premiere wanted to pay tribute to MJ by broadcasting shows with him or the Jackson 5 at #1, there are both 70s and 80s weeks that could pull it off - July 4, 1970 ("The Love You Save/I Found That Girl" by Jackson 5) and July 2, 1988 ("Dirty Diana").

The former would be something of a double treat, as it was AT40's first show EVER. (It turns out that June 27, the week prior, also saw them at #1 anyway.)

I was surprised to check and discover that he had a hit at #1 around this date in 1988, because I wouldn't have thought that he did.

I was surprised to check and discover that he had a hit at #1 around this date in 1988, because I wouldn't have thought that he did.

Won't happen for two reasons

1. When AT40 started, they used the Billboard chart for the following week (the 7/4 show used the chart from 7/11). "Mama Told Me (Not To Come)" by Three Dog Night was the first #1 song on AT40.

2. Scott Evans filled in for Casey on the 7/2/1988 show which was "Dirty Diana's" only week at #1.

This week's AT40 offerings from Premiere are from 6/22/1974 when the Jackson Five's "Dancing Machine" charted and 6/28/1980 when Michael Jackson's "She's Out Of My Life" charted.

Oh...shucks. I take it that means any fill-in weeks aren't part of the Flashback set?
