July
28th, 2013 to August 3rd, 2013
We had quite a variety
of music on the show this week, including some great Motown hits, some Lost Treasures, your requests and our
tribute to the late J.J. Cale. What a great guitarist, songwriter and vocalist
he was, and very influential as well. Please check out the Treasure Island Oldies Blog for the
announcement posting of his passing.
Next week on the show,
it's one of the most popular and eagerly anticipated specials of the year. It's
the Annual Instrumental Gems Wordless Wonders
Special, Live Sunday, August
4th and later on the Archives at
the Listen page. If there is a particular instrumental song you'd
like to hear, let me know. Click
the Requests Button on any page of
the website, or call the Treasure Island
Oldies Listener Line at 206-339-0709. I look forward to hearing
from you.
There were no birthdays
to announce on the show this week. However, if you have a birthday coming up, I
invite you to let me know so that I can wish you Happy Birthday on the show and play
Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog pays tribute to
J.J. Cale with a great live
performance of After Midnight.
It's our Song of the Week. R.I.P.
J.J.
Voice
Your Choice presents an
under-rated music arranger and producer, who was the very first to recognize the
talent that the Beatles had. He
signed them to a record deal in Germany. This week we present
Bert Kaempfert as part of the
Annual Instrumental Gems Wordless Wonders
Special. Cast your vote for either Red Roses For A Blue Lady or Wonderland By Night. I'll play the winner
in the 3rd hour of next week's show.
