Does anyone have the actual Top 40 Radio Monitor chart for this week? According to Rob Durkee's book, American Top 40 used the wrong chart with only a dozen songs in their correct positions.

Just to make the AT40 chart complete:

#39-Something To Talk About-Bonnie Raitt

Poor Angelica got shafted, as that was her only week in the Top 40 on the Radio Monitor chart. I never even heard her version of "Angel Baby" until I downloaded it a couple of years ago.

[Hervard]

I heard "Angel Baby" several times, since B96 played it regularly. Still, yeah, it's a shame that she got slighted out of her only week on AT40, as it's a good song.

LOL @ the censors on these boards. (To avoid this, whenever posting anything by her, I list her last name as "Penniston")

BTW, if you want to compare different charts, here is the ARC Weekly Top 40 for 12/14/91 with many different songs than the Radio Monitor chart:
