KLNC & WMGN are going with 1978 this Saturday. I've kind of given up making sense of WMGN's choices. Last month they played 1971 and three hour 1979, which they hadn't usually done over the last several years, so I thought maybe now they were playing all A's from whatever date, but this week they skip 1972 in favour of 1978 which was done less than a month ago? At least there's an option (both this week and early next Saturday) for those looking for 1978. (For the 80s they went with 1988.)

"Iko Iko" was originally a hit for the New Orleans based girl group The Dixie Cups in 1965-Seven years later,in 1972,a remake by the late Dr.John made the Hot 100-In 1989,another remake by The Belle Stars reached the top forty-It was played over the opening credits of the Dustin Hoffman-Tom Cruise movie "Rain Man".

I'm thinking (and hoping) that they'll concentrate on playing most of the yet-unaired shows in August. Of course, they would not be able to do all of them because of the two adjacent 1975 shows. Also, since the 1971 and 1972 shows are only two days apart, they might just do one or the other. But it is possible. Here is one scenario they could go with: July 27, 2019 - July 28, 1973 August 3, 2019 - August 2, 1975 August 10, 2019 - August 9, 1975, if they don't do the August 2 show August 17, 2019 - August 19, 1972 August 24, 2019 - August 21, 1971 A few countdowns to look forward to in the next month or so... WINNER -- July 27, 2019 - July 28, 1973 (stand alone)WINNER -- August 10, 2019 - August 9, 1975 (stand alone)WINNER -- August 17, 2019 (adjusted broadcast date) - August 21, 1971 (the A show)

Prediction for next week's show:
1st Guess - 7/20/74 2nd Guess - 7/23/77
1974 is ripe for a spin and this show has only been played once as an 'A' (in 2010).

Hopefully among Premiere's Optional 7/28/73 Extras will be "Roll Over Beethoven" - Electric Light Orchestra which just missed the Top 40, peaking at #42 that week! I saw Jeff Lynne's ELO Sunday night and "Roll Over Beethoven" was the encore. Neither I nor any of the people around me were expecting it. The camera whose video is shown on the screen behind the band did a great job of focusing on the string section as they took their places and started playing.

I believe 8/9/75 is new to Premiere.

Well, my predictions were kind of close.
At least they're doing one of the adjacent 1975 shows. That leaves hope that they'll possibly exhaust the entire series by the end of 2020. If so, that would mean they'd do the 1972 show next week as well. I was kind of doubtful about them doing both 1971 and 1972 - since they have 1973 slated at the end of July, that would mean a cluster of early-70s shows within a month's time.
With this new info, 1971 and 1973 will both be exhausted in August.
Anyway, for the next two and a half months after the 1971 show will be repeats, since November is the next month that contains unaired shows.

I'm listening to the 15 Jul 1972 show on WSQL. Wasn't there supposed to be a listener question asked between #37 & #36??

In my copy from a prior airing there is a listener question before #38 (what artist has had the most chart hits without hitting #1) that Casey answers before #36 (spoiler alert...James Brown).

Thanks pb. That's the question I was looking for. Any idea where it went for this broadcast? Also do you know who asked it?

The question was asked by Joe Witkowski (sp?) of New York City. I have a copy of the original show, and I haven't been listening to Premiere's rebroadcast versions, so I'm not sure where the QL went. Funny how they keep changing things up like that (not funny haha... I'm sure it may frustrate some listeners, or get them wondering).
