OMG, Casey lite just said Der Kommissar kept Falco from being a one hit wonder. Maybe overseas, but in US, Vienna Calling was his other top 40. Then they said 'Lover was Atlantic Starr's first crossover pop hit, but Circles by them reached the top 40 four years earlier!

They get pretty much all of thier info from Wikipedia. After hearing the show I was curious what happened to Marilyn Martin. I looked her up on Wikipedia and the first line of her bio is word for word what they said about her. This explains why some of their info is way off.

They said Rick took a break to focus on life after Hard To Hold. Actually he didn't take a brief hiatus until after the following years Tao. If wasn't until after the followup to that, Rock of Life, in 1988 that Springfield disappeared for most of the next decade.

This error is a bit late but I was listening to a December 1980 show that I had recorded back in December 2012 and never got around to listening to until this week.
Alan Hunter was talking about a movie Jill Clayburgh was in and he said, "whatever happened to her?". Yikes! She died in 2010.

This isn't an error per se, but in the April 1989 show they did last week we got three redundant explanations, from different VJ's, of the Latin freestyle dance scene. Yes, that was popular in 1989, but one story on it would have sufficed. Can they coordinate their speaking parts a little better?

OMG, they just said Shattered Dreams was JHJ only hit but they had another top 40 in I Don't Want To Be A Hero and a sizable AC song in Turn Back The Clock.

Well, it was only only 'big' hit, top 40 wise. IDWTBAH had nowhere-close to the same chart success as SD.

OMG, Casey lite just said Music Time was STYX last top 40; what about the 90s sappy top 10 Show Me The Way?

OMG, Casey lite just said Music Time was STYX last top 40; what about the 90s sappy top 10 Show Me The Way? This isn't the first time that they've seemed to disregard post-1980s hits by artists (note what I mentioned upthread about what they said about UB40.) |

From this week's 1981 show: "One of the biggest bands of the 70s, creeping into the 80s just a little bit with this album"--leading into a song by Air Supply, who had no US hits before 1980. Was that intended to be about someone else?

OMG, rough night for Casey lite so far. They played the 1989 Into The Night rerecord, not the rereleased hit version. Then they played a funky live version of Doobies' Doctor, not the hit.

OMG, that's just pathetic. You'd think they would know better if they're supposed to be such experts on 80s music, but I guess they're only experts on songs that had videos on MTV.

They also said Mardones joined Chubby Checker's Twist & Shout in the rare top 40 daily double. Of course it was Beatles that reached the top 40 twice with that song, CCs tune was The Twist.

OMG, Casey copycat just said All Night Long was Walsh's contribution to the Midnight Cowboy Soundtrack; of course that was Urban Cowboy.
