American Top 40 with Casey Kasem: November 3, 1984 is a syndicated radio show multi-vinyl album box set featuring Duran Duran, released in the USA by ABC Watermark during 1984.
About the album[]
The album was used for licence broadcast on November 3, 1984, by a syndicated independent radio program created by Casey Kasem, Don Bustany, Tom Rounds and Ron Jacobs.
As its title implies, American Top 40 counts down the forty most popular songs in the USA, from no.40 to no.1. The show used Billboard charts in its early years, then switched to those from Radio and Records upon its late 1990s return.
The compilation includes "The Wild Boys" by Duran Duran at no.38. This single was released with a music video filmed at the "007 Stage" at Pinewood Studios, with director Russell Mulcahy.
Also included is Rod Stewart's version of "Some Guys Have All The Luck", a song Robert Palmer sang at the MENCAP Concert in 1983. This song was later performed by The Power Station on their 1985 Summer Tour (see Power Station bootlegs).
