It's the 50th anniversary. You don't think Premiere would let that anniversary go by without doing something about it, do you? hint, hint, hint So it sounds like we're going to get a mono to stereo conversion of the first show 703-1 (chart date 7-11-70) on its 50th anniversary! I've never heard the 5th anniversary rebroadcast show (753-1). The songs are obviously the same as the debut show - and Casey's original 1970 talk - but what if any additional dialogue does Casey add to the 1975 show? Does he come on at the start of each hour (and/or after commercial breaks) to let listeners know about the rebroadcast? Oops. I'm sorry. Is 753-1 the '75 rerun? If it is, then I goofed. I was talking about the original 1970 show. |

I have the original show aired on the weekend of 7/5/1975, and Casey starts off several segments (including before the show open) by letting the listeners know that it's a re-broadcast of the first AT40 show. However, I believe Premiere will cut these out because Casey says "five years ago" in every single one. If he had just mentioned the date of 7/4/1970, I bet they stay in. I tried editing these to say "50 years ago" but just couldn't make it work. |

I like to think of that song as a hybrid of "Sooner Or Later" by The Grass Roots and "Darlin" by The Beach Boys. |

Prediction for next week's show:
1st Guess - 5/20/72
2nd Guess - 5/14/77
1972 has the second longest drought going right now, and the longest overall if you count 'B' shows. And 5/20/72 hasn't been played in 12 years. 1978 has the longest 'A' show drought, but I'll guess we get '78 the last weekend in May. 5/14/77 was one of the last shows aired in back-to-back years (2009 and '10), got a 'B' show spin in 2013. An intriguing possibility would be 1975--5/17/75 hasn't gone since the Ed McMann days--but I'll hold off on '75 until next week.

Ditto for the song that precedes it on this week's show, Al Wilson's final top 40 appearance, "I've Got a Feeling". Neither record got local airplay in my area, so I only heard both on AT40. Good to hear them again. |

Am I alone in liking Billy Ocean's sole '70s hit, "Love Really Hurts Without You", more than any of his many '80s smashes? It's the only Billy Ocean 45 I ever bought. Love the production on it--it has that Carolina beach music 'sound'.

Love the production on it--it has that Carolina beach music 'sound'. I remember when it came out - it sounded like to me an updated Motown 60s sound. I agree - very underrated song. Who could've ever guessed how big he would become in the 80s. |

A terrific record, and the first example (to my ears) of what later became known as "Fauxtown" -- imitation Motown -- or as the Brits call it, "Northern Soul". |
