This week on Treasure Island Oldies
March 28th, 2010 to April 3rd, 2010
It was good to have Trevor Chan on the air on this week's show. He is the senior producer at our studios, insinc. Trevor is moving to Toronto and it was his last day at the studio. I was pleased to play some of his favourite song requests by Roy Orbison and the many records played on by The Wrecking Crew, the Los Angeles studio musicians who recorded mostly at Gold Star Studios. I know you join me in wishing Trevor all the very best. Speaking of requests, I really enjoy hearing from you with your requests. Get in touch with me. Call or Click. You can record your voicemail message and request by calling the 24/7 Listener Line at 206-203-4678. You can also Click the Requests button on any page of the website.
Happy Birthday wishes go out to Tom Locke, who researches and writes our weekly Moment In Time feature. To date, Tom has prepared over 300 Moment In Time segments since 1999. All the best, Tom. Also I would like to send out birthday greetings to long time listener, Rich Howe in Hillside , Illinois , and to my good friends Red Robinson, from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Lawrence Little. It's been a busy birthday week. If you have a birthday coming up, let me know by sending your name, city and birthday date to michael@treasureislandoldies.com We'll play Birthday by The Beatles for you on the show.
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog is playing Tommy James And The Shondells this week. I had such a great response to them being on Voice Your Choice that I thought it would be fun for you to see them perform in a live clip. Here they are with I Think We're Alone Now, our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
