My picks: * “Rings” — Cymmaron. Of note: Later in 1971 covered for country audiences by Tompall and the Glaser Brothers. Great version. Love how they change the lyric from "James Taylor" to "Merle Haggard" and from "Tony and Mario" to "Johnny and Bille Joe" Three years later (summer 1974) Lobo kept 'Tony and Mario' but replaced JT with The Allman Brothers in his near-top 40 (#43) remake. I remember this Cymarron (corrected spelling) original being a huge hit in some areas on some radio stations. KOMA in Oklahoma City (and all over the West at night) being was one such station. The fact that it was on a small label (Entrance Records) probably kept it from charting higher nationally. |

I'm under the assumption that the optional extras on the 6/26/71 countdown were voiced by Casey.

Does "Too Young" by Nat "King" Cole stay in the broadcast from 6/26/71?

The group Cymmaron took their name from a TV western called "Cimarron Strip"-It aired on CBS in the late sixties.

"Cimarron Strip" aired during the 1967-1968 TV season.

I don't think "Rings" was played in many of the top radio markets such as New York City.

I first heard "Rings" in a concert by Leo Kottke in the 90's. I don't know if he included it on an album but he has performed it often. I don't remember who he mentioned playing on the stereo.

Prediction for next week's show:
1st Guess - 6/30/79
2nd Guess - 6/30/73
OK so this is one of the weirdest weeks to pick since I started doing this eight years ago. By Premiere's usual standards of picking shows, next week's program should have a date of June 26th through June 30th, but there are only six such shows that fit that bill and one of them is being played this weekend as the 'A' show and another as the 'B' show. And another is 1976, which was just played last week. Two of the remaining three were played in 2017, and the other was last aired in 2016. So that means it's probably a repeat of a show last played in either 2016 or 2017, and it's rare that shows played two years ago or less are repeated...but that might happen next week.

That would be really neat if, instead of 6/30/79, they threw us a curveball and played the yet-unaired 6/23 show, but I have a feeling that they're saving that one for next year.

I thought of that, but if they were going to air 6/23/79 they would be doing it this week and 6/26/71 next week...at least that's what you would assume. I would love it if they played 6/23/79, but a huge surprise if that happened. |
