Today, I paid tribute to Casey Kasem. With the exception of 15 rotation songs and one other tune, this show was littered with Top 40 hits, all but two from the '70s. Casey and '70s Top 40 radio shaped me as both a DJ and a music listener. He was an inspiration who entertained me for years, and I'm very happy with how this show came off. Thanks to all who listened.
