I can help you with some of that. His first show as permanent host was in 1978 (he had guest hosted for Don Bowman on atleast a few occasions before that while he was producer) but I don't know the exact show date, one of our other knowledgeable folks will no doubt swoop in and give the exact date. I do know his final official show date as host of ACC was December 24, 2005.

Sometime between January 1-December 31, 1978....in there somewhere I know.

Jeffster, when did your hero Kix brooks begin hosting?

Don Bowman's last show as host of American Country Countdown was dated April 29, 1978. Bob Kingsley began as permanent host the following week, with the show dated May 6, 1978.

Hope this helps!
