Nice catch Christopher, I found a bunch myself:
'I'm Gonna Let My Heart Do The Walking' - The Supremes (#40 on 8/7/76)
Three in 1987 alone, all with Charlie Van Dyke filling in:
'Don't Leave Me This Way' - The Communards (#40 on 3/7)
'Why You Treat Me So Bad' - Club Nouveau (#40 on 7/18)
'Let's Work' - Mick Jagger (#39 on 10/24)
Plus one more from the original AT40 when d'Shadoe took a week off:
'Cannonball' - The Breeders (#39 on 3/12/94)
