This week on Treasure Island Oldies - Week of January 7th, 2018

January 7th to 13th, 2018
Happy New Year! It was great to be back with you after the two week break I took after the Christmas Special. And what a great way to start the year than with a party. Our New Year Dance Party has become quite the tradition on the Island. I love playing all those great dance songs and the New Year's jingles add an extra touch of fun. 2018 will be an important year for Treasure Island Oldies with our 21st Anniversary celebration on May 6th. For a complete list of all specials scheduled for 2018, please select Specials from the Listen menu. 
And we also begin 2018 with the addition of another Affiliate Station to the Treasure Island Oldies Broadcast Partners Network. A big hello and welcome to BPR Boomer Public Radio! You can hear the current show on BPR every Sunday from 1 to 5 PM Pacific. Looking forward to making new friends among the many BPR listeners.
I would also like to congratulate another Broadcast Partners Network Affiliate Station, WTND-LP 106.3 FM in Macomb, Illinois, celebrating their 15th Anniversary. All the best to Tom and Darryl, the station owners on a job well done!

Boy, lots of celebrating going on this week. Happy Birthday wishes go out to Shirley Ham in Cincinatti, Ohio, and to Darryl Roberts in Macomb, Illinois. If your birthday is coming up, please me know by sending the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll wish you Happy Birthday on the show and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you.

The Top Five Countdown this week is from 1966 and the Number One song is by The Beatles. We Can Work It Out is playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Treasure Island Oldies Blog.
