December
8th, 2013 to December 14th, 2013
There’s nothing like having doubles! LOL And we sure had our fair share
this week on the show. It was fun to feature a series of a Hit and Holiday Hit Double by the same artist. And I came across
some very nice Lost Treasures too.
For example, All Through The Night by
The Kingston Trio, Christmas Eve In My Home Town by Bobby Vinton, Marvin Gaye with I Want To Come
Home For Christmas, and many more. For the complete Playlist of this week’s show, go to the Listen page and scroll down. Next week there will be more Christmas
songs and then in two weeks it’s the 17th
Annual Treasure Island Oldies Christmas Special, Live December 22nd and on the Archive throughout the Holiday Season.
By the way, I’ve mentioned that my show will be part of the lineup of
programs when Peachland Radio goes
on the air next May 4. In the meantime, the station is now on the air for the
Christmas Holidays with An Old Fashioned
Christmas and you can listen at PeachlandRadio.
Happy
Birthday to Aron Gutman in Richmond, British Columbia. Aron is
both a good friend and a regular listener. If you have a birthday coming up, be
sure to let me know the details so that I can wish you Happy Birthday on the show and play Birthday by The Beatles
for you. Send the info to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
The Treasure Island Oldies Blog
is playing The Ronettes who were the
first of the Hit and Holiday Hit Doubles
on this week’s show. The Ronettes give a live performance of Be My Baby. It’s our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
The last Voice Your Choice

hour of next week’s show.
Here’s the Rock And Roll News

I hope you have a great week.
Bye for now.
