I predict 8/2/86 for the weekend of August 3. Or maybe 8/2/1980 for the August 3-4, 2024 weekend.

Casey’s Ghost to Ghost.. 👻 That was such a weird outro heading into commercial. Who voiced that? The AT40 staff at the time voiced that split logo -- I think I read that it was actually done as a promotion for the movie Ghostbusters (i.e. in agreement with the motion picture company or something to that effect). Interesting that it was the only time (I believe) where a one-off jingle replaced one of the normal split logos from the theme package of the time. Not sure if something similar was ever done during the Shadoe years, but I'm pretty sure it was the only such instance during the 1970-88 Casey era.

I hope Suzanne from Michigan reunited with her friends, Hilary and Bruce. “Seasons In The Sun” though, really?
I get it. “Ghost stories” “Ghostbusters”. But maybe better for Halloween, no? 👻👻

Has “Eyes Without A Face” ever been played in its entirety on AT40?

While I understand and agree with both of you, his username is secretman after all, so what else can one expect. So now I take a "Balance Of Power" and switch from "Calling America" via "So Serious" to "Secret Lives" ... Nice, or better yet, "Secret Messages"...

Has “Eyes Without A Face” ever been played in its entirety on AT40? In the original versions, I know the single version was intact in its debut week, 5/19/1984; wouldn't surprise me if it was edited in the Premiere version, though. I remember posting in detail about it a few years back, though I don't recall specifics. Premiere loved to edit that song also; just an easy target.

I predict 8/2/86 for the weekend of August 3. This could be next week's "B" show if 7/26 isn't the one for this weekend.

WTOJ might play a B show once or twice a year. Must be they're due!
Unfortunately, there's no 7/31/1985 that Ken has listed. 7/27/1985, perhaps? That was played in 2022, while 8/3/1985 hasn't been played since 2019.

LOL between the "7/31/1985" listing and the "7/22/1977" gaffe over on the 70's thread, this hasn't been a banner day for Next Week's Show announcements!

One of my biggest editing pet peeves on these shows. Too many good songs that got relentlessly edited, likely due to convenience. And there are other songs that were screaming to be cut (from 1984, "To All the Girls I've Loved Before" anyone? how about all the LDDs that had songs like "Through the Years"?) but rarely got touched.

I remember posting in detail about it a few years back, though I don't recall specifics. Premiere loved to edit that song also; just an easy target. I only know the two versions of Billy Idol´s "Eyes Without A Face" at around 4.08 minutes and around 4.58 minutes, but there is a completely different memory for me: When the "good old" vinyl long-playing record was increasingly replaced by the CD in the late 80s, some samplers were released on both vinyl and CD. In a very well-known sampler series in German-speaking countries, which still produces an annual edition today, some songs were released on vinyl but not on CD due to time constraints. And with some songs it was particularly tricky. With Billy Idol´s "Eyes Without A Face", there was a choice between the short version on vinyl and the long version on CD. That wasn´t always easy for me - either all the songs on the sampler on vinyl or just some of them on CD. I decided ... well, yes, ... for the CD and thank God the missing songs also made their way into my music archive some time later.
Incidentally, there´s so much nostalgia in the 7/21/84 show for me that I really couldn´t find an edit this time. I even briefly thought I had heard a different version of Tony Carey´s "The First Day Of Summer", but before I had to unpack my TDK cassette and set up my Pioneer stereo system again, Charis Music Group helped me out once again ...
