Think of the 70s when Happy Days, Grease, American Graffiti, etc were the rage, then the 80s when teens were wearing tie-dyes and following the Grateful Dead. -- Kevin M.

Then why is the all-80s radio format making a comeback?

A lovable guy from Arkansas, a civil engineer by trade, took on that digitizing task years ago after Casey handed the original show off to Seacrest. Premiere Networks, the current owner of the format and of Idol-boy's daily pseudoformat for pop radio, sends them off to north-of-200 stations between the 70s and 80s shows. I admit to being a fan, having once won (vinyl 33 record) radio-station copies of the show in the mid 70s for correctly picking the #1 song, but don't like 80s as much as 70s.

SoCal station KOLA airs "classic" reruns of Casey's show from the 70s and 80s very Saturday morning, I assume it is a syndicated deal. The way it seems to work is they broadcast an installment for the same week, but different year, with Kasem's original intros and outros intact. So I'd guess a large chunk of the series has been digitized and saved.
