American Top 40 with Casey Kasem: September 3, 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 September 3, 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 Duran Duran's "Is There Something I Should Know?", a single which peaked at no.4 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
The show was aired during a period when Duran Duran were recording and mixing Seven and the Ragged Tiger tracks at 301 Studios in Sydney, Australia.
The Police are at no.3, a band featuring Sting who later performed on Arcadia's So Red the Rose album in 1985.
