This Sunday morning at 8 105.7 KOKZ brings you another edition of classic American Top 40 the 80’s as Casey Kasem plays the top 40 songs from June 13th, 1981. It’s where I found today’s Forgotten 45 at 3:45 from Raydio with “A Woman Needs Love (Just Like You Do)”.

The song was the last of 3 top 10 songs by the group featuring Ray Parker Jr. following hits like “Jack & Jill”, and “You Can’t Change That”, “A Woman Needs Love” went to #4 on the charts in 1981. Ray then went solo and hit the top 10 in 1982 with “The Other Woman” and #1 with his smash hit “Ghostbusters” which is celebrating it’s 40th anniversary this year.

The video is like an early 80’s time capsule with the clothing, the cars, and the lipsynching. Check out Ray and Raydio with “A Woman Needs Love” today’s Forgotten 45.
