No 1971 again? I guess rumor has it Premiere is about to nix 1970 and 1971 shows from the AT40: The 70's rotation. And I bet we get 1979 again sometime in July 2021 - maybe 7/21/1979 or 7/28/1979?

Again, I highly doubt Premiere is getting rid of 1970 and 1971. They'd have to re-name the series then.

1970 and 1971 are definitely NOT going away.

Any word on what this week's '70s shows are? Supposedly something from 1977, probably July 9.

I prefer the John Williams version of the "Star Wars" theme over that dreadful version by Meco.

6/24/78 began one of the stranger 3-week stretches of the first Casey AT40 era: six debut songs this week, followed by the two consecutive 8-debut weeks on 7/1/78 and 7/8/78 for a total of 22 new songs in three weeks (and ironically, Casey would not host a weekly AT40 countdown either of the 8-debut weeks). Since a few of those dropped out the following week or after two weeks during this span (including one-hit wonder Tuxedo Junction, who debuted at #32, stayed there the next week, and fell out after that), there weren't 22 songs on the 6/17/78 countdown that were gone by 7/8/78, but nevertheless a turnover in the top 40 that probably hasn't happened since. Yes! Well-remember that massive 'chart churn' during that period. And if my memory serves, one of those two 8-debut weeks was a special (assume 7/1, since that first week of July was usually a 'special' countdown). When the weekly surveys resumed there were SO many new songs, nearly half of the chart. Unusual chart movements/lots of debuts seemed to occur during weeks with AT40 specials. It occurred in July 1973 and October 1973. When I tuned in for 7/13/74, I was unaware that the 6/29 chart was merely a prediction, so much of the chart action that week came as a surprise. Then, October 1974's special week saw eight debut songs. Then, there were a lot of unusual chart moves (both upward and downward) during the week of the October 1975 special. That was followed by a nine-debut week (guest-hosted, of course). October 2, 1976 saw seven debut songs. Then we had July 1978. July 1980's special week (and the following one) had some major chart moves. While the frozen chart phenomenon muted the effects of the holiday season's year-end special charts, there were some very high debuts, including songs by the Ohio Players (12/74) and the Eagles (both in 1976 and 1978), plus a few rapidly-moving singles, notably in 1975-76.
