They did announce it a little while ago - a four-hour AT40 from December 22, 1979. I would say it is a full go!
EDIT: Yes it is! Finally, here we go with the last full version of the 1979 shows!!

Just checking WSQL. They are playing regular music right now so hopefully it's a full go at 6 p.m. eastern. The final unheard hour of Casey-hosted AT40 from his original 1970-88 run is starting right now! With, of course, the top 3 recap of last week's show.

OMG, have to mute WSQL right now for this end-of-hour 'filler'! Sheer ear torture...

For the weekends of 12/30 & 1/6, I'll go with the Top 100 of 1978. The only year that has been featured less in 2023 than 1978 as the "A" show is 1970. The Top 100 of 1978 was last aired by Premiere in 2018 as the "B" show. It was last the "A" show in 2007.

I agree on the Top 100 of 1978 for the A entry, with the Top 80 of 1971 for the B entry for these weekends. Another possibility for these weekends could be the Top 80 of 1973 (originally recreated by Ken Martin for WTOJ exclusively back in New Year's 2016) as the A show entry with the Top 100 of 1976 as the B show entry.

So aside from this station, and presumably WPNC and KOKZ, anyone know what other stations haven't gone all Xmas and will play 12/22/79? Any others that would possibly air the full 4 hours? Thanks...

It will be heard Sunday at 9Am MT on KDRI 'The Drive'. I've heard the promos for it. Not sure though if it will be 3 or all 4 hours. I think they usually run the full show when it's a 4-hr.

Was hoping Territory FM from Darwin Australia would play '79 tonight but they are playing regular music so no AT32 there.

We just got a hint the next 2 weekends for AT40: The 70's will be the AT40 Top 100 of 1978 (If this is the A option, could the B option be the Top 80 of 1971?)

As we enter the last weekend of WXXM Rewind 92.1 in Christmas music mode, later today might come AT40: The 70's via WVLI Kankakee with 12/22/1979 hoping hour #2 has the non "Pop Musik" remix to start off the hour.

Wow, it's great to hear Blackfoot's "Train Train" for the first time in a gazillion years!
Anybody else think Richie Furay's "I Still Have Dreams" might've been a much bigger hit if it had come out in the mellower earlier half of the 70s?
