Here is a complete Thursday night countdown (well, besides the music, of course), hosted by Sandy Benson. This was a weekly feature on Boston's Oldies 103 station that I used to tape every Thursday. About 20 years ago, I destroyed all of my audio cassettes like a complete idiot, so only this and one other tape (that I'll post next month) survived.
