Episode 92 The Week Ending July 7, 1973

This week we kick of a wonderful summer. Whether you catch the next plane to London, or take a cruise on the sea of love, in the summertime, it’s time to string up those party lights. This week Casey Kasem proves he’s got the whole world in his hands as he counts down the Watermark Productions special list of the Top 40 Disappearing Acts of the Rock Era from July 7, 1973. We gave a special guest, that All American Boy Scott Haskin.
