I'm under the assumption that KOKZ,WTOJ,WSQL will be airing all four hours of the "Top 100 of 1976" next weekend.

"Crazy Horses" by The Osmonds will be heard on the countdown from 12/16/72-It sounds like a song that would've received airplay on an album rock station.

Listening on WQSL - yes, this weekend's edition of 12/16/72 has Rod Stewart's "Angel" rather than the B-side "Lost Paraguayos."

I forgot that WPAC also airs the four-hour shows from the 70's.

Noticed that Motown was still shaving a year off of Michael Jackson's age as late as December 1972. He had turned 14 in August of that year, Casey called him 13. They had started doing that in late 1969 when "I Want You Back" was first charting, passing then-11-year-old Michael as 10.

Is there a big difference between a 10 or 11 year old singing lead on a #1 hit? |

Not sure what their reason was, but I've noticed them doing it consistently in ads in the 50-year-old 'Billboard' issues that I've been reading online recently. Maybe Daddy Joe started it, I don't know. |

KLFM is really screwing up the breaks tonight. Maybe no one's manning the studio, they're all out fighting the fires...

Too bad since it's a reliable place to hear the show in stereo in December. Checking a few stations this morning, WNEG is the first one I found playing the show rather than Christmas music or other stuff. This turned out to be a good broadcast, in stereo and all extras played. |

Interesting that Casey included Marvin Gaye in his list of "superstar acts that didn't make the Top 40 in 1972" -- he was 2 weeks away from debuting with "Trouble Man".
