It's a SUPERSIZED Countdown! This weekend WTOJ / Magic 103.1 will air the February 18, 1978 countdown WITHOUT ANY SONG EDITS. By 1978, AT40 was regularly editing songs to make them fit inside a 3 hour show. Sunday morning at 9, you can hear the WHOLE countdown without any song edits.

At the close of the 2/9/74 show,Casey mentioned that he was on the Dean Martin celebrity roast-He was dressed up as Adolph Hitler-I believe there's a video of that on You Tube. Regarding the music, 2/9/74 is notable for a one-week wonder, Art Garfunkel's "I Shall Sing." A rare upbeat song from him. Songwriter Van Morrison didn't release his version of this at the time, but it turned up on the deluxe reissue of his 1970 album Moondance a few years ago. |

This week's presentation (Weekend of February 15-16, 2020): February 18, 1978. This show last aired the same weekend as 2/16/80 (February 14-15, 2015). Optional extras at that time: Hour #1: "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" - Linda Ronstadt (#41) Hour #2: "Feels So Good" - Chuck Mangione (#76) Hour #3: "You Haven't Done Nothin'" - Stevie Wonder (original AT40 extra) These will be reused this week. |

Prediction for next week's show:
1st Guess - 2/23/74
2nd Guess - 2/26/72
Just like in the 80's series, next week's show feels like a no-brainer (though not quite as much). 2/23/74 hasn't been played for 11 years ... suffice it to say it's due.

Since 2/9/74 was offered just 2 weeks earlier, I think it'll be something else. Maybe 1976 since that was last heard the first week of January, or 1979. |

Since 1974 was the "B" show two weekends back, it certainly isn't out of the question.

As predicted, WPAC played 1974. However, the website player still has the 1977 show from 2 weeks ago. |

No newscast at the top of the hour on WSQL today, hooray! Just one of the most iconic rock tracks to ever peak at #40, "Breakdown". An extremely edited version of it, anyway. "Galazy" at #39 was just as heavily edited. The last year of the 3-hour shows, and the reason for the added hour is obvious.

I guess the first 1979 AT40: The 70's show for this 2020 year might be on Leap Year weekend.
I wonder - even with we get any of the 4 unaired by Premiere 1979 AT40: The 70's entries this 2020 year - if the first ever AT40 show from July 4, 1970 will be played in July 2020 to tie in with the 50th. anniversary of AT40 around the fourth of July weekend (Maybe a bonus AT40 50th. Anniversary special hosted by Ryan Seacrest and appearances by Shadoe Stevens and the surviving members of the Casey Kasem family - Jean, Mike, and Kerri - as well that same weekend?)
