FLASH: The Real Media server is back up after maintenance and as a result our Real Media Archive files are available for your "dining and dancing pleasure" LOL :-)
I
sincerely hope you enjoy this week's show. Every now and then it seems there's
a mix of some very cool songs, along with some not often heard Lost Treasures. And this week's show
has many wonderful songs, all quite different from each other. For example, It
was great to hear Gloria Lynne, from
Harlem, New
York, with I
Wish You Love and how about George
McCurn with I'm Just A Country Boy.
Just two examples of why I love doing the show every week. I think that being
able to play a wide variety of songs from the '50s, '60s and '70s is just great. We didn't only ever listen to
once type of song back in the day, and that's why I like to present a good
variety for you every week. And I appreciate your input into the songs I play
on the show too. I look forward to your requests, whether they come in the form
of email requests or via your
recorded message on the 24/7 Listener
Line at 206-339-0709. Keep 'em
coming and I'll keep playing them for you.
Happy Birthday wishes go out to long
time listener Fred Waterer in Ste. Catharines, Ontario, to my sister Louise in Gatineau, Quebec,
and to my nephew Tony's wife, Charlene
Smith-Gize in Airdrie, Alberta. 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 Jay And The Americans and Cara Mia. It's our Song Of The Week. Enjoy!
Voice Your Choice features the combined
talents of Nancy Sinatra and Lee
Hazelwood with two of this duo's hits records. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice Page for either Summer Wine or Jackson. I'll play the winner in the 3rd hour of next week's show.
Here's
your Rock And Roll News for the week of January 20th.
Because
of the Real Media server being down for maintenance, the Top 5 Countdown will not be available this week. Sorry for this
inconvenience.
Before
I leave you for this week, here's a couple of program notes for your calendar.
We will once again present our annual tribute
to The Day The Music Died featuring
the music of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper. That will happen in the 4th hour of the live show on Sunday,
February 3rd. The following week, February
10th will be the annual Love Fest - our Valentine's Day Special. Be sure to get your requests and
dedications to me within plenty of time to be included in the special.
Have
a great week.
Bye
for now.
Michael
