Share memories of growing up with the great music of the 50s, 60s and 70s. My background includes radio and television personality as well as V.P. A&R for A&M Records, where I signed Bryan Adams. In 1997, I began Treasure Island Oldies, the Home of Lost Treasures. I play the biggies, but extensively feature hard to find rare oldies. Listen live Sundays 6 to 10 p.m. Pacific and also the show archives at www.TreasureIslandOldies.com
Let the memories flow!
I've got a great example for you of one of the songs you'll hear on the Treasure Island OldiesName Game Special on Sunday, March 21st. Every song will have a person's name in the song title throughout the show, except of course for the Top Five Countdown. I do this popular themed special every couple of years, and there is always great demand and many suggestions for "Name" songs.
So here is a Name Game Special song, Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly and the Crickets. It's our Song of the Week. Pay close attention to the introduction of the guys on the Arthur Murray Dance Party TV show from 1957. The show was rather staid, to say the least.
