Greatest Casey Kasem audio ever. (Hopefully they didn't announce his death coming out of a fucking up-tempo song.)

Agreed. I used to listen every weekend when I went through my "bubble gum" phase.

Still it's interesting to hear "the dark side" of Kasem especially when he was considered an upbeat voice in the highly competitive pop chart business.

"Seldom was heard a discouraging word, unless it was a starting point for a narrative about coming back from hardship, the darkness before the dawn."
