American Top 40 1972 April 8th (Size: 348.29 MB)
Description "From the salty gray Atlantic to the salty blue Pacific, these are the 40 best-selling records of the week." American Top 40 with Casey Kasem aired on radio from July 4, 1970 until August 6, 1988. This recording is a rebroadcast from internet radio. In this countdown: Because of the Vietnam War draft, 1972 was to be the first presidential election where 18 to 20 year-old Americans were eligible to vote. Casey encourages voter registration in each hour of the show. Two songs debut so high in the top 40 that they are in the second hour of the show: "Baby Blue" by Badfinger (at number 26) and "Doctor My Eyes" by Jackson Browne (at number 24). A listener wants to know what artist or group has had the most number one albums. Casey says this group has 14 number one albums in a span of just six years. There is a song that Casey says was banned in Ireland at the time. Casey gets a letter which asks, "What was the most controversial song ever to become a hit?" Without answering directly, he recalls some songs about insanity, Vietnam atrocities, suicide, and cannibalism. 40: King Heroin - James Brown 39: Take A Look Around - The Temptations 38: Help Me Make It Through The Night - Gladys Knight & The Pips 37: Ain't Understanding Mellow - Jerry Butler and Brenda Lee Egger 36: Got To Get It On Again - The Adrisi Brothers 35: Slippin' Into Darkness - War 34: Let It On (Get It On) - T-Rex 33: Look What You Done For Me - Al Green 32: Jump Into The Fire - Nilsson 31: Precious And Few - Climax 30: Do Your Thing - Isaac Hayes 29: Suavecito - Malo 28: Every Day Of My Life - Bobby Vinton 27: Family Of Man - Three Dog Night 26: Baby Blue - Badfinger 25: Vincent - Don McLean 24: Doctor My Eyes - Jackson Browne 23: I Day I Found Myself - Honeycone 22: Crazy Mama - J.J.
