 Other Programmes: »Country Top 40« with Bob Kingsley and »American Country Countdown« with Kix ...
The American Country Countdown was not only heard on hundreds of country stations in the USA and in the rest of the world, but Bob Kingsley was repeatedly honoured as best national radio host for many years until a rule change meant that at least every other year someone else could win this coveted trophy.
In this sense Country Top 40 is the real continuation of the American Country Countdown with Bob Kingley, only that they are not allowed to use the Billboard charts and of course they are using a new name.
But country music was reserved for the American station, because then as now, most other stations have no reason to consider a kind of music with at best a limited audience in Europe.
