Frequent guest Al Sussman (writer for Beatlefan, author “Changin’ Times: 101 Days That Shaped A Generation,” Former co-host, "Things We Said Today" podcast) to discuss that magical week of April 4, 1964, when the Beatles occupied the Top 5 positions on Billboard’s Hot 100 in America, what some consider the most incredible feat on the music charts ever! We look back at what radio was like at the time, and discuss how the method of computing the charts has changed, and when the Bee Gees had almost had the same kind of success on the singles charts! Always great to have Al back on the channel!

Having grown up in the 70's I can totally relate to what you guys talked about with regards to radio airplay. It's always a good conversation with Al. Thanks guys.

I played guitar as a youth & it has widened my musical pallet. Also being raised by Italian immigrants my musical tastes are very wide. But what my different uncles & dad listened to, along with what I heard on the radio I'm all over the place musically.

I especially appreciated ALL TOGETHER NOW for its "Beatles for Others" and "Beatles from Others" chapters, which led me to Johnny Winter's JOHN DAWSON WINTER III and Arthur Alexander, respectively, among other discoveries when I was a teen-ager.

I wish Mark Wallgren's book THE BEATLES ON RECORD would be updated: It features each record's peak chart position on all three weekly magazines.

Thank God someone still remembers the Bee Gees and what they accomplished. You rarely see somone knowledgeable to that extent. Bee Gees' First; amazing

Nina Simone did a great job covering some of the early songs, by the way

I'm more impressed than ever by not only the Bee Gees hits, but all the songs they wrote for other artists---brilliant songwriters!

@MoiRana-tw6ss 3 месяца назад

I love your work and the fact that you cover this topic. I'm here mainly for the Beatles of course, but Bee Gees fans and experts seem to be something of yesterday. @@kenmichaelsradio748

Interesting discussion on the charts and how they have changed with streaming, I am curious though, how is satellite radio fed into the charts? So many stations are specialized (hello…the Beatles channel), so is play on those channels counted? Or is it just the same as am/fm channel play, no matter what the means of air play?

@kenmichaelsradio748 3 месяца назад

I would think that airplay has to be counted on all radio, am/fm, satellite including internet radio, if they report what they are playing.
