Any guesses as to Saturday? I'll go with September 4, 1971 for this weekend. 1971 has not been featured since June. 1975 has not been featured since May. September 13, 1975 would be good for next weekend. 9/6/75 aired a few years ago.

The #1 record was the only song to make #1 with that being its only week in the Top 4 during the entire chart run.

The #1 record was the only song to make #1 with that being its only week in the Top 4 during the entire chart run. And that was a rare feat in itself. I can't recall any other #1 song that avoided #2, #3, and #4 entirely.

I can't recall any other #1 song that avoided #2, #3, and #4 entirely. I can't either. Even "Black and White" and "Get Down Tonight", two other singles that rose and fell rapidly from the top spot, spent two other weeks at one of those other numbers. 1-2-2 for 3DN and 3-1-3 for KC. Oddly, all three records are from right at this time of their respective years.

Thanks, forgot about Neil. At least he hung on at #1 for more than a single week.

And, like "Get Down Tonight", only 4 weeks in the top 10 (9-6-5-1). But two months later, "Whatever Gets You Through the Night" would only spend 3: 6-3-1-12. Those wacky late '74 Hot 100s.

"Don't Go Breaking My Heart" by Elton John & Kiki Dee went 8-5-1-1-1-1-8-9 within the Top 10 so that song never hit 2, 3 or 4.

I found another #1 that never hit 2, 3 or 4 going up or down the chart... "Disco Lady" by Johnnie Taylor: 5-1-1-1-1-6 Meanwhile... Sept. 9-10, 2023: Now let’s go back to this week in 1971 - Mark Farner - September 4, 1971 On the 9/4/71 show, "Signs" by The Five Man Electrical Band moves 8-3. The next week, it would move 3-8. There's a song that hit the Top 5 yet never placed at any of next four lower positions (4, 5, 6 or 7) on the chart. Also... Interesting that eight of the songs within the Top 10 move up or down a minimum of 5 notches. That's a lot of chart action as Casey used to say. I wish I knew why I find this kind of thing fascinating .
