I wonder when the next 1981 show will be? They haven't featured that show since late March (and the two adjacent years have been played twice since then).

I wonder what happened to Casey Kasem on Jul 11, and Jul 18, 1987? Did he took 2 weeks off vacation or something? Just curious.

This happened also for Casey on... January 5, 1985 and January 12, 1985. January 9, 1988 and January 16, 1988. Charlie Van Dyke did these 2 week guest host things. For Shadoe Stevens, the 2 straight weeks he was off were July 23, 1994 and July 30, 1994 (Though AT40 was withdrawn from the USA at that time)

And for the rest of July: July 22-23, 2023: July 21, 1984 July 29-30, 2023: July 31, 1982

Not sure about the 11th but on the July 18th show CVD said Casey came down with a cold.

I thought he would stop at George Michael’s new single. Fun fact about I Want Your Sex, the title was only acknowledged on AT40 4 times. 6/20 and 27/1987,7/4 and The Top 100 of 1987 which aired 1/2/88.

This is what Charlie Van Dyke said at the beginning and at the end of the program, July 11th, 1987, regarding Casey's absent: sndup.net/jzzz/

I know I was just a kid back then but I would always listen to these 1987 shows and I for one, really was wondering what happened to Casey after not hearing him again on the 7/18/87 show. I was thinking he quit or was replaced by that time. Sadly, it would become truth just about over a year later.

In the category of “artists mentioned on AT40 before they charted”, there’s Bonnie Raitt, who Casey mentioned in a story on July 4, 1987 about Western artists performing in the Soviet Union. Bonnie didn’t actually chart on AT40 or CT40 until 1991 (20 years into her recording career)—the same year the USSR collapsed.

I was thinking he quit or was replaced by that time. Sadly, it would become truth just about over a year later. A year later it took a few weeks for me to realize that Casey had left and Shadoe was not just guest hosting--especially as I also watched America's Top 10 on TV, which Casey was still hosting. Back then I was a kid/teen who followed the charts but not the ins and outs of radio, and so was (happily) thrown for a loop several months later when Casey returned to the radio with a new countdown.

When Casey describes Eddie Money as “a junk food junkie”, I’ve never related to a rock star more.
