Still waiting for Part 2 of the Top 200 Love Songs to be uploaded.
Jeff said last week at the beginning of Part 3 that Parts 1 and 2 can be downloaded from the Facebook page. I only see Part 1.
I missed Part 2 because our Internet was down.

I just listened to the AT40 for 02/17/1990 this morning. It started at 5.25am and the AT40 for 08/17/1974 just started at 8.47am.
I thought Donny Osmond did a pretty good job as a guest host.

Just heard the Motown version of Heaven Must Have Sent You by Bonnie Pointer on Weekly Top 30. I recall first hearing that version when I worked at a small radio station near Mobile, Ala, back in 1979. We played the song in a room that did not broadcast the song over the airwaves but I do recall three of us listening to the song and clapping along and dancing--and I wondered why that version wasn't the official one released; as I thought that version would chart higher than the disco version which was being promoted by the record label. Of course, disco was still big at the time but was soon on it's way out. Of course the song did get to #11 in Billboard and #10 in Cash Box.
Listening to these old shows bring back memories of the first station I worked at--when we still played records.
Thanks--Jeff,
Joe

If a 1979 show of MERC is on here, then it'll play again. I did the Motown version last year when it was in the 40.

The AT40- 8-13-88 show that plays today is the first Shadoe Stevens show. Just thought I'd share that for anyone who wants to catch it.

By the way Rodney, Casey's first show also was on today (7-4-70). Where else can you get the first AT40 show (period) and then the first show from the Shadoe era--only on W B M E.

Not to mention Shadoe's last show & a Rick Dees Weekly Top 30 (6-6-81) but thank goodness it's a Seacrest free zone.

You guys are awesome :-) Good points for sure. I'm certainly a Casey fan first and foremost. I don't dislike Shadoe, I'm just not as big a fan of that era of music. As far as the Weekly Top 30 (Mark Elliot) I like those shows due to their uniqueness. Same songs Casey presented, but done in a different way/format. Lastly, for me the whole Seacrest thing is just a matter of not caring for the music, so I've never listened enough to know if I like/dislike Seacrest. But THIS I do know... I LOVE WBME, having a schedule, a comment board and like minded people to share it with. Have a great weekend everyone.

Next time I do a schedule, we'll have more Casey, bring back Cashbox Countdown and more. We have a couple Dick Clark shows and one or two Rock Dees shows too. Can't remember dates but I rarely air it, not being a huge fan of his, I never collected those shows.

Can't remember dates but I rarely air it, not being a huge fan of his, I never collected those shows. Speaking of OTHER shows besides the AT40... I'm loving the MERC's and Gold Rush shows on this round of schedules. When the schedule finished up a week or so ago, it renewed my interest in the 50 Years of #1's shows, so I've been listening to those quite a bit in the past few weeks. Also the 4-4-64 MERC show was spectacular this past week. First time I've caught it. Loved all the info that came with the show.
