American_Top_40_1982_July_24th 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. A few are incomplete but most are not and I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.

In this broadcast:

Casey tells the story of what ever happened to Jan and Dean.

One act in the countdown consists of former members of The Byrds, The Hollies, and Buffalo-Springfield.

Casey answers the question, "What age has appeared in the most top ten song titles?"

Casey recalls how a teacher once told Stevie Wonder that if he worked hard, someday he could make a living weaving baskets.

Stevie Wonder is in the countdown this week with "Do I Do." It features Dizzy Gillespie, one of the greatest jazz trumpeters of all time.
