Featured Surveys

Welcome! Let's reminisce and enjoy a few minutes cruisin' down Memory Lane to the tunes of our youth. You're on Blast from Your Past's Featured Radio Surveys page! Enjoy the moment ... again.

Every month--50 Years Ago--a cool vintage radio survey, or music chart (depending on how you know them), Top 40, Top 30, Top whatever, is featured here to coincide with BFYP's "50 Years Ago this Month" nostalgic blog. All surveys are from the Blast from Your Past Collection unless noted as radio surveys from other great sites.

Featured Survey / APRIL 1975  
 
It's raining April showers and promising May flowers ... really though? In reality, it's a world gone mad ... at least that was the hypothesis 50 Years Ago! Little did they know at WCFL/Chicago, Illinois, we'd be singing the same songs and lamenting the same political ills today. But Rock Radio DJs helped us through it, like the inimitable Larry Lujack, behind the mic and Rockin' our teenage spirits. Grab your memories and Rock On ... 50 Years Ago this Month ... Enjoy the Moment Again

*Top Ten songs are posted here just as they appear on surveys, misspellings and all (tho I don't use all caps) ...

No matter how much I tried, I could not get this system to position the images w/text properly. I give up. So, here at the bottom, we have the back survey ad for their incredible School Spirit Contest concert. What fun, with the oh-so-popular Larry Lujack as emcee!
