Cue Sheet Errors

[papathree]

I'm listening to the AT40 Book of Records special on WPAC and noticed that the cue sheet [ www.charismusicgroup.com/Cue%20Sheets/07-05-80.pdf ] left off "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" by Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams which Casey played at the end of hour 2 (following "Me & Bobby McGee").

For next weekend:

6/7/75:
#24: "I Wanna Dance Wit Choo (Doo Dat Dance)" by Disco Tex--no Sex-O-Lettes. (In fairness, there wasn't much room left on that section of the paper)
#23: "I'll Play For You (Hear the Band)" by Seals and Crofts--of note since the subtitle, while maybe not incorrect, is rarely cited.

6/5/76:
#28: "Young Blook" by Bad Company
#13: "More, More More" by Andrea True--one comma missing from the title, and it was credited to the Andrea True Connection though it was and is probably often listed just with Andrea's name.
#8: "Sara Smile" by John Oates & Daryl Hall--not really a mistake, but about the only time I've seen Oates listed first.

6/4/88:
#10: "Anything For You" by Gloria Estefan and "Miame Sound Machine"

6/7/1986:

1) The same "Mother Talk" error that's also seen on the 5/17/1986 cue sheet (at #39 this time around).

2) Boy's Don't Cry is at #17 with I Wanna Be a Cowboy.

6/15/74:
#11: "Of You Love Me (Let Me Know)"-Olivia Newton-John

6/18/77:
#12: "Ain't Gonna Bump No More"-who? (Joe Tex's name is completely omitted)

Just one from 7/19/1980: Ali Thomson is at #28 with Talk a Little Rhythm.

The Cue Sheet for the upcoming Sirius XM 7-14-79 show has #31 has Lean Me On instead of Lead Me On. It is correct on the 7-21-79 Cue Sheet, which will be on the AT 40 70's.

While for the B show (7/23/88), Robert Palmer is at #32 with "Simple Irresistible" and somebody is at #15 with "Just Go Paid". (No artist was typed in; Johnny Kemp's name is handwritten on the sheet posted at the Charis Music Group site.)

On the cue sheet for the show from 7-14-1979, Maxine Nightingale is at #31 with Lean Me On (maybe somebody was thinking of Lean On Me by Bill Withers from 1972).

7/27/1985:

*Phil Collins debuts at #36 with Don't Loose My Number.
*Billy Ocean has two songs in the Top 40: Mystery Lady at #35 and You're Only Human (Second Wind) at #31.

The Topical Promos page has a few errors:

*The Billy Ocean error mentioned above (listed under the Chart Giants section).
*The same section also has this error: "Kenny Loggin's hit with 'FOREVER'"
*The Tops of the Charts section has "Number one on the country chart was 'DIXIE ROAD' by Lee Greewood".

ETA: This is one I've bypassed in the past when I've seen it, but I think it would be considered an error: The Power Station version of T. Rex's "Bang a Gong (Get It On)" is labeled as exactly that on this and every cue sheet I've seen from its time in the Top 40 when their version of it has the "Bang a Gong" part in parenthesis instead.

I was taking a look at the 10/13/1979 cue sheet and noticed an error right at the top of page 3: "THEME & OPEINGIN OF PART III".

Other errors:

At #39 is Good Friend by Mary Macgregor.
The Doobie Borthers are at #25 with Dependin' On You.

I spotted one error on the cue sheet for the 8/19/1978 show (currently airing on the Classic AT40 channel): At #32 is Close the Door by Terry Pendergrass.

Forgot to mention this one: the only error on the 8/4/1984 cue sheet is Breakin'... There's No Stoppig Us.

[JMW]

Two name-related errors from 2/9/1974:

#40: Come and Get Your Love - Red Bone
#4: Americans - Byron McGregor

Stop-pig us - OINK, OINK!

Here's a different kind of cue sheet error:

The AT20 (regular AC show) for 5/15/99 has a sheet linked, but it's accidentally a duplicate of that week's AT40: charismusicgroup.com/AT20%20Cue%20Sheets/AT20%201999-0515.pdf
