American Top 40 with Casey Kasem: April 9, 1983

American Top 40 with Casey Kasem: April 9, 1983 is a syndicated radio show multi-vinyl album box set featuring Duran Duran, released in the USA by ABC Watermark during 1983.

About the album
The album was used for licence broadcast on April 9, 1983, 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 two Duran Duran singles including "Rio", a song which reached no.14 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and later featured three new mixes created by Recall 22 that were released on a promo in France during 1998.

At no.1 is Culture Club featuring singer-songwriter Boy George, who performed on Mark Ronson's 2010 Record Collection album that also included Simon Le Bon and Nick Rhodes.
