Interesting on the 09/23/72 show that 2 positions didn't match the published HOT 100 chart.
Casey played 'Tight Rope' at #39 when it really was at #34. And played 'Easy Livin' at #34 when it was listed at #39 on the chart.

1977 is next week - if I'm not mistaken, this is when Casey actually said 9/24/77 in the closing after the #1 song which takes a dramatic leap.
I'm thinking both of the extras will stay in the show hopefully.

I missed what Casey said before Run To Me. Can anyone who taped it tell me what he said? Thanx Casey said: At sixteen a song that moved up 3 and has been around 5 weeks on American Top 40, it's by the Bee Gees. Thanx

And played 'Easy Livin' at #34 when it was listed at #39 on the chart. It's likely that Billboard gave the AT40 staff a chart and then made changes without telling them. Rob Durkee wrote about stuff like that in his book.

Rob Durkee wrote about stuff like that in his book. Or the changes took place after the show was complete and it was too late to make any corrections, unlike, for example, the time in 1977 when Billboard contacted AT40 with some chart changes while the show was being recorded, and Casey was forced to explain the changed positions later in the show after the affected songs had already been played.

By the way, for those of you who want to determine how SXM chooses the years, here's what they have to say from their Facebook page:
"First of all, we look back at the programs that have aired in previous years and try our best to avoid repeats until all episodes have aired. Then we try (our best) to spread the years, although this is becoming a challenge as we get to fewer options of un-aired episodes. Once we have had a pass through all un-aired episodes, we'll re-air the episodes that were aired only on XM (pre-merger). Following all this, we will reset and begin a whole new systematic pattern."

Concerning the 10/01/1977 show played today, I noticed how little of the week's top debut was played.
"It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down" - Barry White debuted at #26. I timed the song from the minute Casey finished speaking over the start of the song. Then only 1 min 13 seconds of the song played before Casey cut back in.
Joel Whitburn lists the 45 rpm single as 3:22 in length.

1971 is next week - and it turns out this year was the featured year on BobbyMagicRadio yesterday (Friday).
I'm thinking Hit The Road Jack will be cut on SXM since it doesn't fit the 70s. It's generally heard on the 50s channel and sometimes the 60s channel, in which Lou Simon programs both channels. Wished he could do it for the 70s channel...

On the other hand, only 13 out of 40 songs (excluding the extra) are in their regular rotation, according to the XMFan forums. Not acceptable if you're an XM member.

Next weekend (Oct 19th)... 1973!! So I wonder if it's 10/13/73 or 10/20/73? I will guess 10/20/73 since a week from Sunday is 10/20/13...though you never know with SXM.

From a positive perspective, the 10/09/71 show will feature several songs that, as has been frequently remarked in another thread, current radio has chosen to ignore.

Since 1973 is featured for next weekend, I thought I should note that BobbyMagicRadio is doing the Hot 100 edition of 1973 all this weekend. First it's the entire 100 songs from the chart of 1/6/73, then the hits that entered from subsequent charts are played up to 12/29/73. Here's what he said on the XMFan Forums back in April:
"1973 ...Going SUPER DEEP this weekend.. every HOT 100 1973 Billboard charted song Played in chronological order. ...EVERY SONG...No omissions!"
600+ songs is what I've been told he's got for 1973 Hot 100.

Most likely 10/20/73, though SXM reserves the right to change their standard practice of playing the chart that dates through Sunday of the current week.
