Happy Islandays! Treasure Island Oldies Update

December 1st to 7th, 2019
It's the beginning of December and the Islandays Season! It was so good to go into the Christmas section of the music library and select some great songs to play for you this week. I like mixing your seasonal favourites, along with some Lost Christmas Treasures; and it was a pleasure to play Bobby Vee, Bing Crosby, Darlene Love, Gordon Lightfoot, Ray Charles and Betty Carter, and so many other great artists. Check out the entire list of songs I played on this week's show at the Listen page, then scroll down to the Playlist.

Apart from the next two weeks being filled with Christmas songs, be sure to mark your calendar for December 22nd, when we'll be Live with the 23rd Annual Christmas Special. Apart from the Live show, the Christmas Special will air twenty times throughout the week on the Affiliaite Stations of the Broadcast Partners Network.

If your birthday is coming up soon, I'd like to help you celebrate it on the show. Send the month and date to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll wish you Happy Birthday on the air and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you.

Next week on Treasure Island Oldies, it's the last Voice Your Choice for 2019 with Rare Earth. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either (I Know) I'm Losing You or Get Ready. I'll play the winner next week.

The Top Five Countdown this week is from 1967. The Monkees hold down the Number One spot with Daydream Believer. It's playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog.

Join me again next week  next week on Treasure Island Oldies, your Home for the Islandays!

Bye for now.
