American Top 40 1975 May 10th

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:

Thanks to the Dr. Demento radio program, "Shaving Cream," a song written by Benny Bell in 1946, is on the chart 29 years after its release.

Casey answers the question, "Which of Elvis Presley's hit songs stayed in the number one position the longest?"

Casey takes a minute to tell us what ever became of Bobby Rydell.

Chicago debuts a song all the way up at number 17!

Casey answers the question, "Which song spent the most weeks in the number two position without ever reaching number one?"

Casey also answers the question, "Has anyone ever hit number one on the pop chart and the country chart at the same time with the same song?"
