On 4/11/87, Casey said that Jody Watley's "Looking For a New Love" had hit #1 on the soul and dance charts and, moving up the pop chart, she was "looking for a new #1". It didn't get there at pop, though it did come as close as possible, with four weeks at #2. (Two years later Jody replicated that performance with "Real Love", again hitting #1 soul and dance, and #2 pop.)

It was an interesting butchered first 1976 hour on Hoggy.
Casey said Barry Manimellow kept rolling right along. 'Trying would soon become a top tenner. But John Denver wasn't so lucky when Casey mentioned he was the #1 male act of 1975, but Looking For Space was peaking right there at #29 and he'd only graze the bottom of the top 40 twice more in the 70s.
Then he teased the #1 duo Everly Bros who would never reach the top 40 again, but the song just completed was Sara Smile and of course it was the guys that would soon fly by Evs.

On last week's butchered 76 Casey said three weeks in the top ten and it looked like Maxine was headed to #1 with Right Back.

In a Supersized 77 jinx/ reverse jinx Casey said McCartney had reached #1 in the most configurations.
He'd add a couple w/ Stevie and MJ but to this day, Paul would never get there solo.

How in the world could it NOT have been Elton John? Caribou and The Bxtch Is Back and Whatever Gets You Through The Night and Greatest Hits and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds and Pinball Wizard and Philadelphia Freedom and Captain Fantastic and Someone Saved My Life Tonight and Bad Blood and Rock Of The Westies and Island Girl. John Denver trumped all that? Okay.

"Coming Up" was credited to just Paul on the studio side, but the vastly more popular (at least on radio) live side of the 45 was credited to McCartney and Wings.

In a Supersized 1978 jinx Casey said Elt was in hot pursuit of Bing and Elvis as the male act with the most #1 albums. Sir Reg was never have another album chart topper.
