    The New Gold songs aren't on the printed list. WABC began listing
    New Gold at the bottom of the printed list in March 1975 and this 
    is one of the few weeks since then that they don't appear.
  
    Though not on the printed list, WABC is playing some gold titles
    from earlier in the year, which are all of the songs listed above
    starting with Lady by the Little River Band. This will continue
    into the first few months of 1980.
