Some 1983 notes: Three biggest #1 hit after died: otis redding, janis joplin, and jim croce. Snippet played sitting on dock of bay, me and Bobby McGee, time in a bottle It's hard to believe that Jim Croce has been dead for 50 years. Fortunately, like so many other artists gone too soon, he left a bank of great material to continue his legacy. The October 20, 1973 AT40 show had Casey giving a Jim Croce tribute.

(Post 1987, would "Macarena" by Los Del Rio from the mid 1990's count?)

[/quote] There's also "Despacito" by Daddy Yankee and Luis Fonsi, a #1 hit in 2017 that was originally all in Spanish. However, the AT40/pop hit version with Justin Bieber may have too many English lyrics to qualify.

And "Here I Go Again" had a lead in story of Whitesnake singer Dave Coverdale having lost his voice before recording their then-current album and fearing he wouldn't sing again. (HIGA was played in its remixed single version, which I think it always was on AT40). And "It's a Sin" was led into with a story listing the Seven Deadly Sins.

The Wall was from 1979.

Wk away top 40, brilliant disguise Larry morgan intros: 1 adult contemp didn't we almost have it all, 1 album sales fleetwood mac, 1 album? Pink floyd the wall? Yes, I know I screwed up the quote's author here--sorry. On the 9/26/87 Top 200 LP chart, the #1 album was Michael Jackson's "Bad". It debuted at that position.

But “Learning to Fly”, from Lapse, was #1 on the AOR tracks chart, which Larry noted in the optional extra segment leading into “Brilliant Disguise” (which later did the same), which I think kani’s post was trying to convey. Casey of course noted the #1 debut of Bad leading into the #1 song, which was from an album that accomplished the same then-rare feat three months earlier.

That makes sense as 'kani' does mention 'Larry morgan intros'. Thanks.

As much as I don't want it to be, I predict 10/4/1980 for the weekend of October 7th/8th (with 10/5/1985 as the "B").

Was that one of the only times AT40 played the intro to Michael Jackson’s “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You?”. The spoken word intro “A lot of people misunderstand me/I just want to touch you and hold you..”. I don’t remember if they’ve ever played the version with the spoken word intro. It as nice that Siedah Garrett got her own spotlight. She’s a talented singer/songwriter. She co-wrote Jackson’s 4th #1 off then “Bad”, “Man In The Mirror” with Glen Ballard. Rumour has it Prince was invited to sing on “Bad” but he objected to the opening line “Your butt is mine”. Barbara Streisand and Whitney Houston were also invited to duet with Michael but also declined.

There was a 1986 AT40 show where the spoken word intro for Bruce Springsteen's live cover version of Edwin Starr's "War" was played.
