6/20/87:Gino Vannelli - Wild Horses Living In A Box - Living In A Box Robbie Nevil - Wot´s It To Ya The Outfield - Since You´ve Been Gone Some of my favorites from that year! Gino Vannelli got considerable airplay in my area then; was disappointed when I never heard it on AT40.

I'll play this week. The 8/8/81 is the first chart published once MTV premiered. Rock's influence on the pop chart would soon change as none of these songs made the Top 40 in the Summer of '81... which seems hard to believe today. It's also amazing that Billboard didn't publish any sort of Rock chart until March of '81:
* "Stranger" by Jefferson Starship (up 4 notches to its #48 peak) * "Tom Sawyer" by Rush (off 9 notches from its #44 peak at #53) * "Heavy Metal" by Don Felder (up 11 notches to #64, would peak at #43 and spend 17 weeks on the Hot 100) * "Tempted" by Squeeze (up 10 notches to #73, would peak at #49)
Listen here:
For 8/14/76: * "Showdown" by Electric Light Orchestra (up 10 notches to #74, would peak at #59) * "Popsickle Toes" by Michael Franks (up 12 notches to #75 on its way to a #43 peak; a guilty pleasure that I first heard in a doctor's office) * "Discofied" by Rhythm Heritage (bubbling under at #103, would only peak 2 notches higher)
