AT40 with Casey Kasem & Shadoe Stevens : The bilingual editions.
Some spanish radio stations, from Spain and Latin America, took the show in the 80´s. But they had local presenters , so a mix of spanish speaking content and the original parts from Casey and Shadoe were used. Defenitely for ruining the shows and the original spirit and flavour.
On april 20th 1985 American Top 40 started on Cadena 40 Network Spain.

It was DJ José Antonio Abellán who translated what Casey said and later will be DJ Fernandisco who did the same with Shadoe.
The show was on aired on Saturdays 16.00 to 20.00 CET and it was a week later than the version aired in The USA.
In 1985 the show , with the local spanish inserts, was recorded on reel to reel tapes and sent from Madrid to the provincial FM stations ( more than 52) that had to broadcast it between 4 to 8 pm. Finally the show was aired via satellite and the costs of the making were less, because the FM stations picked the satellite feed from Madrid and the quality of sound was much more evident. But they still kept on ruining the show with those translation of what the original host said.
In Latin America some stations used complete dubbing of the show and they only respect the song lists. Other radio stations aired the original shows.
