Happy
Summer! I'm pleased to say that nobody got a sunburn at the Annual Summer Beach Party, although a
few were targeted by those seagulls. I warned everyone not to look up, or at
least not with their mouth open. LOL It sure was a great with all those hot
sizzling summertime hits. My thanks for your requests. I always enjoy receiving
your requests, whether it be for an upcoming special or a regular show. And you
can get in touch in two ways: Click
the Requests button on any page of
the website or Call the Treasure Island Oldies Listener Line at
any time 24/7 at 206-339-0709.
Next
week we have another special lined up for you with our Annual Made In Canada Special. We spotlight the singers, groups,
and songwriters who made a big impression across Canada and around the world. You'll
be surprised at just how many big hit songs were made by Canadians. Don't miss
the entertaining and educational special LiveSunday, July 1st beginning at 6 pm Pacific time, and on the Archive at the Listen page.
You
may have noticed that we have done away with the "splash" page and
incorporated the graphic throughout the rest of the website. The Treasure
Island Oldies "album cover and record" artwork is the new logo for
the website and show. I hope you like it.
Happy Birthday wishes go out this week
to Linda Guy
in La Habra, California
and my nephew Tony Gize in Airdrie, Alberta.
They are also both frequent visitor to the Chat Room. If you have a birthday
coming up, be sure to let me know. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com and I'll wish you Happy Birthday on the show and play Birthday,
our official birthday song by The Beatles, for you.
The
Treasure Island Oldies Blog is
keeping with our Summer Beach Party theme with a real summertime anthem. We're
playing The Beach Boys with Surfin' USA,
and it's our Song Of The Week. Enjoy!
Voice Your Choice presents my friend, Andy Kim. This former Montrealer wrote or
co-wrote many hit songs for himself as well as other artists. But this week we
present two of hit hit songs. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page foreither Rock Me Gently or So Good Together. The winning song will
get played in the 3rd hour of next week's Made In Canada Special.
