Sept. 9-10, 2023: Now let’s go back to this week in 1971 - Mark Farner - September 4, 1971 Is it me, or did they leave out the #20 song, "Won't Get Fooled Again"?

You are correct. No #20 was played in this airing.

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 . Actually 8/28/71 was when "Signs" jumped from 8 to 3; 9/4 it fell back to 8. That's one of several major moves in both directions, including the biggest jump to #1 in AT40 history, and one of only two that did so from outside the top 10 (the other, in the Ryan Seacrest era, was Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" leaping from 11 to 1.) 9/4/71 is also the first regular AT40 that was just 40-1, with no extras. So without any songs that SXM might have felt compelled to edit out (though they shouldn't have done that anyway), why is #20 missing? Presumably by mistake, but then this should have been noticed before anyone pushed play.

I thought the same thing--maybe they thought the song was too 'loud' for the early morning airing of the show. Hopefully, the Who don't get fooled (again) on subsequent airings!

Presumably by mistake, but then this should have been noticed before anyone pushed play. It is apparent that the version of 9/4/71 as heard today on SXM is the "M2S" conversion that aired on Premiere back in Aug 2021. 95% of the numerous M2S edits were identical, including removing split logos, adding BOGUS commentary, and moving the LQ from its actual position to much later in the countdown. As far as I recall the 2021 M2S version included #20, so this edit to remove #20 from today's SXM airing apparently came from somewhere else. [edited because, apparently, I'm a fail when it comes to quoting other folks' posts. My apologies!!]

Awaiting the 9AM re-airing as I write this. 3AM is just not gonna happen unless I just can't sleep. All times local.

All times local. When the show aired on SXM in 2012 the song was there, however the bumper before it was removed. In the original show after playing the Partridge Family song at #21 Casey did a tease for the next segment (about Rod Stewart), went to commercial, came back, said "This song puts in the middle of the countdown..." played the song. In the 2012 SXM airing, after the Partridge Family song Casey does the outro for that and then right into "Casey's Coast To Coast" then into the Who intro. It sounds to me, like there is an edit after the outro. My guess is someone meant to just take out the teaser and removed too much.

Of those 8 'droppers' that Casey mentions at the start of the show, only 2--"Mighty Clouds Of Joy" and "Where You Lead"--are still in the 'Hot 100' this week. The other 6 fell completely off the chart from inside the 40.

Geez, why couldn't Sirius have accidentally left out #28 instead of #20. Five-minute muting in effect.

The other 6 fell completely off the chart from inside the 40. During the 1960's (and early '70's) it was pretty typical of Billboard, Cash Box and Record World to drop singles that made the Top 10 completely off the chart after the single exited the Top 40. Maybe this was at the insistence of the record labels (that paid for the majority of advertising in the magazines). Perhaps the labels wanted to see how the next 'single' was doing on a national level because it is doubtful that the 'public' , which had little to no access to the major trades during the '60's & early '70's, quit buying a certain record just because it dropped outside the Top 40. I know that most people were only really aware of how a song was doing locally , if they cared to follow any kind of chart, when their local station stopped playing a song as frequently.

Wheel of Casey this week: July 27, 1974. Among the many severe edits in this SXM broadcast, XM cut out all of #18 (Wildwood Weed) but, thoughtfully, they did play Casey's outro to the song.

Premiere's 9/27/75 on WSQL Thursday afternoon and 9/20/75 right now on Sirius. Does history repeat itself? One 1975 show (9/20) on Thursday and another 1975 show (9/13) on Saturday.
