"We're counting down the biggest hits in the USA from Baker, California, to Baker, Florida; from Baker, Oregon, to Baker, Louisiana; plus Baker, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and Baker, Idaho. At number eleven, up seven notches we have Anita Baker and 'Sweet Love.'"

American Top 40 with Casey Kasem aired on radio from July 4, 1970 until August 6, 1988. This is a recording of a rebroadcast from internet radio.

In this broadcast:

Concerning songwriters who have hit number one for the most years in a row, there is a tie for first place between two men who each have an eight year streak. One of them is in this countdown. Twice!

A listener writes in with this question: "Who are the most successful female solo-singers in each of the last four decades (1950's thru 1980's) based on hit singles?" The female solo-singer for the 1980's has a song in this countdown.

Casey pays tribute to the man who successfully developed the Top 40 radio format, Gordon McLendon, also known as "the Maverick of Radio." Casey doesn't say he was also a pirate radio broadcaster and developed offshore pirate radio broadcasting to both Scandinavia and the British Isles.

Peter Gabriel is at number 29 with his hit, "In Your Eyes" and Loverboy is at number twelve with their song, "Heaven In Your Eyes."

A listener wants to know, and Casey tells us, whatever happened to The King Of The Road; Roger Miller.

Another listener wants to know, "What were The Beatles biggest hit single and biggest hit album?" The biggest single spent 9 weeks at number one, and the biggest album spent 168 weeks on the album chart, and 15 weeks at number one.
