WTIC, which aired the oddball 1979 show last week, aired the 1984 show this week. They've been airing the show for 5 weeks and they're 2-for-5 on airing the correct one. How difficult should this be, really?

VERY irritated at WCRZ...they went to commercial after #3, which always happens...no problem. Well, they did their top-of-the-hour station ID several minutes early, and after that..."Raspberry Beret" started playing. That's right, they cut off the show after #3! Not cool, guys... >:(

P.S. They have been getting pretty heavy on the '84 shows lately (as evidenced by the fact that five songs in this show were also in the '84 show from June!)...

Sorry, I was half-asleep when I posted the info.

No big deal...I always enjoy and appreciate these weekly flashbacks.

I do have one question, though. Why is this thread in the AC section? I realize today's AC has morphed from soft rock to retro Pop with a handful of suitable more recent tunes tossed in for years at a stretch. (How many minutes has it been since your local AC station has played "Drift Away" again?) But, AT40 was a Pop, not AC, countdown. Would the Nostalgia Board perhaps be a better home for this thread?

You answered your own question.
