First Island Update of 2020

January 5th to 11th, 2020
Happy New Year! I hope you enjoyed the Holiday Season. Well here we are; it's 2020! I am sure looking forward to this year with you on The Island. What a great start to the year we had with the Annual New Year's Dance Party. I may need to take the rest of the year off to recuperate. LOL  It's interesting to note the number of dances and the number of songs that were based on specific dance styles. How many of these dances were you good at? The Wah-Watusi, The Jerk, The Twist, The Stomp, The Stroll, The Freddie, The Monkey, The Boogaloo, The Loco-Motion, and so many others!

It's birthday time and I'd like to wish Happy Birthday to Jill Brown Sykes in Cambridge, Ontario, Tammy Maynard in Nashville, Tennessee, Shirley Ham in Cincinnati, Ohio and to Darryl Roberts from our Affiliate Station WTND-LP in Macomb, Illinois. If your birthday is coming up soon, I'd like to help you celebrate it with you on the show. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll wish you Happy Birthday on the air and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you.

This week on Treasure Island Oldies, Voice Your Choice features Chris Montez. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Some Kinda Fun or Let's Dance. I'll play the winner on next week's show.

The Top Five Countdown for the year is from 1966. The Beatles continue their long streak of hits with the Number One song this week, We Can Work It Out is playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog.

Here's to another year of sharing some of the greatest music ever recorded with you! 

See you next week. 

Bye for now.
