“Here we go with the Top 40 hits of the nation this week on American Top 40, the best-selling and most-played songs from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from Canada to Mexico. This is Casey Kasem in Hollywood, and in the next three hours we'll count down the 40 most popular hits in the United States this week, hot off the record charts of Billboard magazine for the week ending July 11th, 1970. In this hour at number 32 in the countdown, a song that's been a hit four different times in 19 years! And we're just one tune away from the singer with the 10,000 Dollar gold hubcaps on his car! Now, on with the countdown!”

Comment: The “Long Distance Dedication” is from a listener who thanks Casey for counting down the hits for 39 years. Between #2 (with the ironic title “If Today Was Your Last Day”) and #1 Casey himself gives a brief history of his countdown programs and how they grew over the years. And after the #1 (which, by the way, is ironically titled “[Sometimes Goodbye Is A] Second Chance”) he states this wisdom: “I'd like to share with you something I've learned over the years: Success doesn't happen in a vacuum. You're only as good as the people you work with, and the people you work for. I've been lucky; I've worked for and with the very best!” Casey ends the show with - of course - his legendary tagline “Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars!”.
General: Most shows were recorded from remastered re-runs on radio station livestreams. Some 'Extras' were added recently (done by a different host). Recording was done with 'No23 Recorder' and 'Audacity'. Commercials were manually cut out using 'Audacity'. All playlists were created by myself and contain new entries, re-entries, 'Extras', 'Specials', 'Archives', 'Oldies', 'Recaps' (top 3 songs of last week) and 'Long Distance Dedications'.
