SPECIAL NOTES:  This week Dr. Hook's "The Cover of 'Rolling 
Stone'"  moves from #9-#13 on rival WWDJ.  (Never played on WABC.)

Also this week, "Superfly Meets Shaft," a "break-in" record by 
John & Ernest (Rainy Wednesday) moves from #22-18 on WWDJ.  The 
record, produced by legendary break-in master Dickie Goodman, 
eventually peaks at #3 on WWDJ, but never receives any airplay on 
WABC.
