January
12th, 2014 to January 18th, 2014
It was sure fun to be back with you again this week for four hours of
great music and memories. And thanks for the songs you requested; it was great
to include them in the song selections on the show. I enjoyed hearing from Cora Quinn in Peoria, Illinois who asked me to play Topsy Part 2 by Cozy Cole
for her friend Alice Bledsoe, who
also lives in Peoria. The funny thing is that Cora really does NOT even like
Topsy, but knowing how much Alice does, Cora asked me to play it for Alice. Now
that’s what I call a friend!
Happy
Birthday wishes go out to long time listener, Judy Covington in Canton,
Ohio, and to Alice Bloedsoe in Peoria, Illinois. I’d love to wish you
Happy Birthday on the show as well. Be sure to send the details to me via
email: birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
Not only will I send best wishes your way, I’ll also play Birthday by The Beatles
for you.
Speaking of The Beatles, it’s hard to believe that it will be 50 years
ago they appeared for the first time on the Ed Sullivan Show on TV. When the date approaches, I’ll
play back that historic appearance on the show. I must say, it seems like
yesterday in a way, but it is really a lifetime ago now. Unbelievable!
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog
is playing Johnny Tillotson with Talk Back Trembling Lips. It’s our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
