February
16th, 2014 to February 22nd, 2014
It sure was great to hear The
Beatles 2nd appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show from the Deauville Hotel in Miami Beach, Florida,
from February 26, 1964. And it was another record breaking audience that
watched the Fab Four on TV. I am so glad that I was around during their heyday
and the era in general. It was an exciting time and a period of so many firsts.
And the memories it brought back were great for me and for you I am sure. And
that’s exactly why I love bring you Treasure Island Oldies every week. It’s not
just about playing a bunch of old records, it’s what that timeless music evokes
in your own memories. So I thank you for being part of the audience every week;
I know you enjoy the show, the great music and the memories. By the way, the Chat Room is a really good way to share
some of those memories when you hear a particular song. Recent visitors have
now become weekly regulars. And I am sure you will as well. Click Chat on any page of the website
during the live show on Sunday nights; follow the instructions, and you’ll be
part of the chat room or the Nuts in the Hut.
If you have a birthday coming up, be sure to let me know so that I can
wish you Happy Birthday on the show
and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you in celebration of
your special day. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
Our next monthly special will occur on Sunday, March 16 with the Annual
Name Game Special. Every song will have the name of a person in the song
title. It makes for a fun and lively special and I know you will enjoy it again
this year.
