Happy
New Year! I sincerely hope and
trust you had an enjoyable Christmas and a great New Year celebration with your
family and friends. I wish you all the very best for
2013.
Wasn't that a party!
Our Annual New Year Dance Party is
such a great way to kick off a new year. Many thanks for your requests and so
great to be back to normal with our regular features and show contributors once
again. And speaking of requests, I'd be pleased to do my very best to play your
requests on the show. Just click the Requests
button on any page of the website or call the Treasure Island Oldies Listener Line any
time of the day or night at 206-339-0709 and record your message. I
look forward to hearing from you throughout the
year.
Happy
Birthday wishes go out to
Shirley Ham in Cincinnati, Ohio. If you have a birthday coming
up, send the details of your name, city and birthday date to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
I'll help you celebrate by wishing you Happy
Birthday on the show and I'll also play Birthday for you by The Beatles.
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog is playing one
of the quintessential dance songs of all time, and a song that has the
distinction of being the only record to reach the Number One spot on the charts
twice - in 1960 and again in 1962. It's Chubby Checker performing The Twist on American Bandstand and our Song Of The Week.
Enjoy!
Voice
Your Choice spotlights the softer
side of the 1970s this week with Bread. Fronted by David Gates on lead vocals, he was also
quite a force in the early 60s as a writer and producer for many artists
including Pat Boone, The Cookies, The
Murmaids, and others. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either It Don't Matter To Me or Baby I'm-a Want You. I'll play
the winner in the 3rd hour of next week's show.
Here this week's
Rock & Roll News for the week
of January 6,
2013.
And here's our first
Top 5 Countdown spotlighting the
year 1961.
Hope you have a great
week and I'll see you next week on the show.
Bye for
now.
Michael
