It's
great to be in the think of the Christmas Music season. I love playing all the
great Christmas classics from the '50s, '60s, and '70s, as well as some great
Christmas lost treasures. Next week on the show, it will be all Christmas
music, followed by our 15th Annual Treasure Island Oldies Christmas Special on Sunday, December 18th for the Live show, and available throughout the
remainder of the holidays on the Archive
at the Listen page.
Just
a reminder to either send in your email with your Christmas dedication. Just
send your noted to christmas@treasureislandoldies.com.
Of course, you can also call our 24/7
Listener Line at 206-339-0709 and
record your greeting. I look forward to hearing from you in whatever way you
prefer.
If
you're looking for last minute Christmas gift ideas, consider stopping by the Treasure Island Oldies Shop The Island Store. There are all kinds of Treasure Island Oldies items, including both
T and Sweat Shirts, Clock, Coffee mugs, and much more. Happy shopping!
I'd
like to take a moment to say a big thank you to Fay Greenwood and Matt
Meaney for the terrific Hits From
Across The Pond weekly feature they have been researching, writing and
producing every week since 2009. It's been great to hear the story and the
songs for many British hits that we never got to hear in Canada and the United States. Judging from the
listener response, they too have enjoyed the feature immensely. After a break
for a period of time, I would like to replay this series. Thanks again Fay and
Matt. We'll miss the feature but enjoyed it while we had it on the show.
The
Treasure Island Oldies Blog is
playing Paul McCartney with Wonderful Christmastime, a song that has
become quite a classic Christmas Holiday classic. It's our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
Voice Your Choice presents Bob B. Soxx & The Blue Jeans from producer
Phil Spector's stable of artists.
The two songs waiting for your votes are Here
Comes Santa Claus and The Bells Of
St. Mary's. Which song would you like to hear? Cast your vote at the VoiceYour Choice page and we'll play the winning song ion the 3rd hour of next week's
show.
If
you've got a birthday coming up, send the details to me at birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll wish you Happy
Birthday on the show and play our official birthday song for you by The
Beatles, Birthday

As the Holiday Season is now here, I'm going to keep the next few weekly updates a bit shorter. I have less time to write and you, my friend, have less time to read!! I hope you have a great week and see you next Sunday for the live show.
Bye for now.
