This Week On Treasure Island Oldies

This week on Treasure Island Oldies

January 10th, 2010 to January 16th, 2010

Thanks for another fun time together this week on the show. If you weren't able to hear it live Sunday night, just click Listen on the Menu and then click Archive. We had some great requests including Strawberry Alarm Clock and Tomorrow for Paul in Ellicott City, Maryland and The Last Waltz by Engelbert Humperdink, requested by Maureen in Berkley, California, who also requested a real Lost Treasure by Dave Dudley, Cowboy Boots. I'd be happy to play your requested songs as well. Either call the 24/7 Listener Request Line at 206-203-4678 and record your voicemail message. I'll play it back along with the song you requested on the show. You could also send an email to me with a note about the song and the artist name. If there's a special reason you'd like to hear it let me know that too. Click the Requests Button on any page of the website. I look forward to receiving your phone calls and emails.

Our next special will be our Valentine's Day Special. I'm particularly pleased that our live show will be on Valentine's Day itself, Sunday, February 14th. Be sure to send in your requests and dedications for your special someone in time to be included in the special. Click or Call, that's all.

The Treasure Island Oldies Blog features Ricky Nelson with his Top Ten 1961 hit Hello Mary Lou, and it's our Song of the Week. Enjoy!

We had a tie this week on Voice Your Choice, which resulted in playing both songs by Joe Dowell: Wooden Heart and Little Red Rented Rowboat. We don't get ties all that often and fun to play both songs when it happens. Voice Your Choice next week spotlights The Big O Roy Orbison with two of his many wonderful hits: Running Scared and Working For The Man. Click the Voice Your Choice Button on any page of the website and then select the song you'd like to hear. The winning tune will be played in Hour 3 of next week's show. I wonder if there'll be another tie!

If you or someone special to you is having a birthday, let me know. Send the details to michael@treasureislandoldies.com. It'll be my pleasure to wish you Happy Birthday and play Birthday by The Beatles.

And don't forget to send in your photo for the Treasure Island Oldies Listener Gallery. Many folks have already submitted their photos, and there's still room for yours. Send your picture, name and city to michael@treasureislandoldies.com. I look forward to receiving  it from you.

Is your Alma Mater planning a high school, college or university Reunion? Let me know and I'll be pleased to let the listeners know about it. Today with people scattered all around the globe, it is sometimes difficult to reach them. I'll do my best to help publicize and promote your Reunion. Send the details to michael@treasureislandoldies.com.

Have a good week.

Bye for now.

Michael
