July 6th,
2014 to July 12th, 2014
It was great to get together once again this week on Treasure Island
Oldies. There was a temporary outage at
the network that caused the live stream to stop working with about 35 minutes
remaining in the show. Fortunately the entire show was able to be saved and is
now available at the Archive page.
I was pleasantly surprised with the reaction when I played Frankie Laine and Vic Damone for this week’s Lounge
Double. Folks were saying when they first heard it, how old they were and
just how great it was to hear Moonlight
Gambler and On The Street Where You
Live once again. That’s the power of music!
Be sure to listen to the Technicolor
Special coming up July 20. The
show will be filled with songs of every colour and hue. If you’d like to hear a
specific colour song, be sure to let me know. Click Requests on any page of the website or Call the Listener Line
at 206-339-0709 and leave your
voicemail message for me. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Happy
Birthday wishes go out this week to Bobbi
Gutman in Richmond, British Columbia
and also to my son David Godin, also
celebrating his birthday this week. If your own birthday is approaching, please
let me know. I’d love to wish you Happy Birthday on the show and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.

Well, that’s it for this week. Keep on enjoying your summer. It’ll pass
much too quickly not to take some time to relax.
Bye for now.
