So all of this week's shows are from the last day of April or first day of May. Good somewhat funny story about Hot in this show. No way they cut it out so enjoy it.

Wow - is this a first. At 30 seconds into #7, So Into You by Atlanta Rhythm Section - the record slows down to a stop and then starts up again.

I have this show and just heard it the other day and the exact same thing happened. What this means is that the same not remastered show is traded around the internet and SXM is using those same shows. With their infamous 1974 shows with the subpar quality, it is time to make a simple conclusion here. SXM does not have access to remastered shows and does not have the ability or inclination to remaster shows themselves. (If it is Shannon Lynn remastered shows, they would presumably not want it because those have edited songs which to SXM's credit, they don't have. Yes they edit a bunch of other material).

Notice Don Felder introduced the show - join us as we go back to this week in 1977 - instead of the normal Casey lead-in?
That was cause for alarm, was afraid Casey might have passed. I did quick search and did not find any news of such. Many reports of Casey's health issues and being in a care facility - and family feuding over care and visitation.
I wish many years of quality life for Casey - but Sirius XM may be preparing for the inevitable.

I noticed that this week too--first time since I started listening to the SXM shows that I did not hear "I'm Casey Kasem! Now join us as we go back to this week--197X!" followed by the SXM 70's on 7 logo and the start of the show.

The SXM show from this weekend also had some audible skipping in "Lonely Boy" (at #22.)

This will put the SXM policy of not playing extras from before the 70s to the test. Not going to give everything away here but this show has the latest placement of the show's only extra in AT40 history. (regular shows that is). Just heard this show 48 hours ago.

Sirius/XM is certainly cognizant of the fact that Casey's health has declined greatly & they probably figure it's time to have a rock star do the introduction-Makes sense to me.

I wonder how Premiere will handle it when they thank Casey at the end after he passes. What are you guys talking about? Please explain!

Was this week's 05.08.76 a sign of the changing times? Notice how many established stars songs were in midst of mediocre showings?
Fallen Angel by Frankie Valli - peak #36. Anytime (I'll Be There) by Paul Anka - peak #33. Hurt by Elvis - peak #28. Come On Over by Olivia Newton-John - peak #23. Young Blood by Bad Company - peak #20.
And to a lesser degree - Love in the Shadows by Neil (& Dara)Sedaka which peaked at #16 - after two recent #1's and a #8.

You are correct - it is Neil by himself on Love in the Shadows.
I had 'Should've Never Let You Go' fresh in mind because Premiere's AT40 the 80's broadcast this week features it from the 05.10.80 show.

Perhaps it was caused by my poor antenna reception; however, the opening to "Welcome Back" (at#1) was rather choppy .

My question was at the end of the Premiere broadcast when they are thanking all the studs; Peteski, Scott Lakefield, Shannon Lynn, etc will they continue to thank Casey? I have to believe that they will continue to thank him. Why not? I'm guessing he doesn't listen to the old shows anyway, so it's not like he's been hearing Larry's closing credits all this time.
