This Week on Treasure Island Oldies - Week of September 24th, 2017

Week of September 25th, 2017 to September 30th, 2017

Thanks for listening to this week's show. We sure had lots of listeners from so many places, including all across the United States and Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, and Sweden. Very cool. I am so pleased how Treasure Island Oldies has become a real worldwide show! A big thanks to our Broadcast Partners Network affiliate radio stations for helping to make this happen. By the way, Jonathan Mosen from our affiliate station, Mushroom FM in Wellington, New Zealand, has just told me that there is a change to their schedule effective Monday, October 2nd. The current show will now be heard every Monday beginning at 5 pm Eastern time. As Jonathan indicated, it is a much better time for Mushroom FM's US listeners. I will be sure to have the Broadcast Partners Network page updated ASAP to reflect this new time. Thanks for letting everyone know, Jonathan.

It was my good pleasure to wish long time listener, Ed Sanderson in Toronto, Ontario, a very Happy Birthday on the show. If your birthday is coming up soon, I'd like to know so that I can help celebrate your special day by wishing you Happy Birthday on the show and also by playing Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the info to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com

We're just two weeks away from our Canadian Thanksgiving Special, live Sunday, October 8th. Please join me for this delicious special, when I'll prepare a tasty harvest of music that will fit into the theme of Thanksgiving.

This week's Top Five Countdown is from 1967. And the Number One song is The Letter by The Box Tops. It's playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog. Enjoy!

Next week on Treasure Island Oldies, Voice Your Choice spotlights Motown's Jimmy Ruffin. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either I've Passed This Way Before or What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted. I'll play the winning song on next week's show.

Here's this week's Rock and Roll News Podcast.

Thanks again for listening to the show. See you next week right here on The Island!

Bye for now.
Michael
