Description THIS 1972 PROGRAM WAS ORIGINALLY DISTRIBUTED IN MONO. THIS PARTICULAR REBROADCAST WAS BEEN EDITED SO THE SONGS ARE IN STEREO. "Hello again, this is Casey Kasem and this is American Top 40. Welcome to our weekly countdown of the 40 best-selling songs in the USA." American Top 40 with Casey Kasem aired on radio from July 4, 1970 until August 6, 1988. This is a recording of a rebroadcast from internet radio. In this broadcast: Elvis is at number 40 with his 127th hit single. There is a hit by an ex-convict whose trouble with the law kept him out of the draft, and gave him a hit record album which was made into a major motion picture, in which he starred. Many stations refused to play "My Ding-A-Ling" by Chuck Berry (this week at number 31) even when it reached number one. Casey's introduction of the song sounds as if he is justifying his decision to play it. The highest debuting record in the countdown is the title song in a motion picture starring 4,000 rats. Rick Springfield (Jessie's Girl) is at number 29 with his first hit, "Speak To The Sky" way before he ever got called Bruce. One song on the chart is by an act that got booked for a guest appearance with the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra. Orchestra members protested by refusing to wear tuxedos stuffing tissue in their ears. By the end of the show, the orchestra gave this act a standing ovation. 40: Burning Love - Elvis Presley 39: Sealed With A Kiss - Bobby Vinton 38: This World - The Staple Singers 37: Get On The Good Foot (Part 1) - James Brown 36: The City Of New Orleans - Arlo Guthrie 35: Baby Let Me Take You (In My Arms) - Detroit Emeralds 34: The Happiest Girl In The Whole U.S.A. - Donna Fargo 33: Use Me - Bill Withers 32: Coconut - Nilsson 31: My Ding-A-Ling - Chuck Berry 30: You’re Still A Young Man - Tower Of Power 29: Speak To The Sky - Rick Springfield 28: Nights In White Satin - The Moody Blues 27: Looking Through The Windows - The Jackson 5 26: Ben - Michael Jackson 25: Pop That Thang - The Isley Brothers 24: (If Loving You Is Wrong) I Don’t Want To Be Right - Luther Ingram 23: Popcorn - Hot Butter 22: Everybody Plays The Fool - The Main Ingredient 21: Play Me - Neil Diamond 20: Run To Me - Bee Gees 19: Motorcycle Mama - Sailcat 18: Power Of Love - Joe Simon 17: Join Together - The Who 16: Beautiful Sunday - Daniel Boone 15: Go All The Way - The Raspberries 14: Goodbye To Love - Carpenters 13: Honky Cat - Elton John 12: Hold Your Head Up - Argent 11: Guitar Man - Bread 10: Saturday In The Park - Chicago 9: Black And White - Three Dog Night 8: You Don't Mess Around With Jim - Jim Croce 7: Rock & Roll Part 2 - Gary Glitter 6: Backstabbers - The O’Jays 5: Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl) - Looking Glass 4: Baby Don’t Get Hooked On Me - Mac Davis 3: I’m Still In Love With You - Al Green 2: Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress - Hollies 1: Alone Again (Naturally) - Gilbert O’Sullivan Sharing Widget |
