I'm listening to the 6/8/1974 show on the Classic AT40 channel and Rikki Don't Lose That Number at #38 didn't have an intro for it. That seems like a strange thing to edit out so I'm going to guess it was originally that way or it's an iHeartRadio edit (they've gone as far as to chop-up a couple of the 4-hour 70s shows so I could see them doing such a thing). It's an iHeart/Premiere edit. Since that song started off a segment in the original show, was Casey's intro cut out after the intro bumper? Is that what you meant? Premiere trying to pull a "no-nuttin'"? 😂 But, anyway - the original show has Casey introing the song.

It was; the song started after the jingle and I was waiting for Casey to start talking but he didn't until the song ended.

Foolish Beat was edited on the 6/4/1988 show (went from "Oh!" to "de doo doo doo doo"); that song always seems to be the victim of editing.

That was actually in the original version of the show, so it wasn't a Premiere edit, believe it or not. That edit has always been a peeve of mine. Not just because they cut what I think is a great song, but they simply edited it in the wrong place, messing up the continuity of the song in the process. The "Oh" should have been cut out as well, so it would go, "...now that we're apart - do do do do do...". Of course, that might turn out to be a sloppy edit as well. A better way to edit the song would be to cut out the second verse. The playing time of both versions wouldn't be that much different (and wasn't the second verse edit used one time when "Foolish Beat" was an OE?) The edit you speak of, BTW, was used at least two other times - the June 11 show and the July 9 show. Not sure whether or not it was also used on the Scott Evans show (July 2) or the Hall & Oates show (July 30), since it's been quite awhile since I've heard either of those.

Both the Scott Evans and Hall & Oates shows have the song completely intact, so that edit must've only been used those three or so times.

The playing time of both versions wouldn't be that much different (and wasn't the second verse edit used one time when "Foolish Beat" was an OE?) Yet another way would be to mash-up the second chorus with the end of the last one (where she repeats the last two lines of the chorus right before the end of the song). The edit you speak of, BTW, was used at least two other times - the June 11 show and the July 9 show.

I meant to edit it, but hit the quote icon instead - my bad.

On AT40: The 70's 6/15/1974 for "The Streak" by Ray Stevens the second part at the gas station with second chorus was edited out - I am guessing it's a Watermark original and not a Premiere edit.

This may have been discussed before, but have you ever noticed that sometimes you can tell a Premiere edit from one in the original show? The key sometimes changes slightly once Casey's intro has ended. Then, it changes again, back to how it was before, right before the outro. This happened with "When I Need You" by Leo Sayer. My guess is that, on the original show, the version without the sax in the instrumental bridge was played (since the sax was indeed present in the edited version).

I'll have to listen to my originals later today/tonight after work of the two 70s shows this weekend. You're right, though...some of those edits are fairly obvious.
ETA: Re: 1988 shows - that year has a lot of original edits, much like the later years of the 3-hour shows. And some of them are downright awful...as recently noted. "Foolish Beat" has several "foolish" edits in the originals. "Honestly" was another. 1988 is one of those years where the likelihood of "blaming" Premiere for edits goes noticeably down, just like the 1975-1978 timeframe.
