I have not seen anyone post yet, so I will share. www.thefoxoldies.com or The Fox Oldies on TuneIn Radio. They are in the 600-650 range now and it runs 9a-5p, and then re-runs 9p-5a. It combines Billboard, R&R and Cashbox for the basis of the countdown. For example, the lowest ranked #5 song yesterday was "Only Time Will Tell" by Asia, as it hit #17 on Billboard, but #5 on R&R. The lowest ranked #6 song yesterday was "IGY" by Donald f*gan as it reached #6 on one of the charts, but only the mid-20's on Billboard. The Top 500 will air next week, but there should be a replay of 1000-501 over the long weekend. The DJ is actually spinning the real 45's on two turntables. It's a must listen for chart enthusiasts!

There is already a thread for that show on this forum : see " latest news "
Starting this coming Monday, May 18th, the Fox Oldies will be playing the biggest 1000 songs from 04/17/82 to 11/30/91. These songs will be ranked by combining the chart rankings from Billboard, Radio & Records, and Cash Box. The countdown will start at 8am Central (9am Eastern) starting at #1000 and on Monday the 18th will play #1000 through #901. 100 songs will be counted down per day Monday through Friday so that on Friday May 29th, #100 through #1 will play.

Sorry about that - I've never clicked on Fox Oldies News before. I just learned about this station from the Billboard Hot 100 1980's Facebook page. Apparently, I'm very late to the game. Enjoy!
