I know we're a little bummed about 7-21-84, but for me, 7-24-82 marks a special time in my history of Classic AT40. As some of you may or may not know, I joined the party a bit late. The first 80's show I heard in the Classic AT40 format was this very show 10 years ago. It led me down into a rabbit hole not only with these shows, but those versions of songs on 45rpm records that some of these shows you really couldn't hear anywhere else. Thus, my hobby of collecting vinyl records began. Both of these addictions have been a bit pricey at times, but I still have the same passion for Classic AT40 and vinyl collecting to this day and I haven't looked back.

My first classic AT40 show is close to yours - 7/10/1982 - in 2009 the first weekend after Casey retired. The station I listened to had switched from AT20 to the classic shows and I started listening to those. I never knew the classic series existed before then. I've been listening ever since. I started recording and collecting the shows in 2012.

The Human League's "Don't You Want Me" fell 6 spots from #1 to #7. Was this the biggest dropping song from #1 in the 80's decade? I'm thinking probably not. I think there might have been a greater one in the late 80's ie The Shadow era.

Two Hearts by Phil Collins fell from 1 to 10 in 1989. Forever Your Girl by Paula Abdul fell 1 to 8 that same year. I don't know if there are other songs that fell further from #1 in the 80s though

I started recording and collecting the shows in 2012. My first show (also in 2009) was also from 1982: the March 13th show. I knew the show existed for at least a year thanks to this board, but one day I finally decided to take the plunge and start listening.
