American_Top_40_1982_August_28th torrent

American Top 40 with Casey Kasem aired on radio from July 4, 1970 until August 6, 1988. This rebroadcast is one of many I have recorded from internet radio. Some are incomplete but most are not and I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
I got a little carried away with this one because its original broadcast date was one day before my 18th birthday. Also this was one of the first rebroadcasts of AT40 I ever recorded so nobody was more disappointed than I that I didn't get the whole thing. It is what it is.
In this broadcast:

One act in the countdown has a singer who only had to pass a one note audition.

One American act in the countdown was formed overseas.

And there is a new band called Men At Work.
