March
2nd, 2014 to March 8th, 2014
It was great to spend another four hours together this week on Treasure
Island Oldies. And occasionally I will hear from a listener who indicated they
missed hearing the show on Sunday night. Have no fear, the Live show is always recorded for playback at the Archive. You can either listen to the
three most recent individual shows in Real
Media, or there is the 24/7 Stream
in Windows Media, which airs the
three most recent shows as well in a continuous loop. Every week the oldest
show is replaced with the latest, so you always hear recent shows. It’s all at
the Listen page.
Speaking of hearing from listeners, I received an email from Don Giecek who was inquiring about a group from
near Philadelphia called The Sinceres.
He wanted to know if I knew the name of the lead singer. While I was unable to
confirm the lead singer, I was able to let him know that one of the members was
a fellow by the name of Malloy William.
In fact, I will play a single by them on the Richie label, which was at the time distributed by Roulette Records. Be listen next week
on the show for Please Don’t Cheat On Me
by The Sinceres. And thanks for
getting in touch with me, Don.
We’re two weeks away from the March special on the show. Be sure to
listen March 16 and later on the
Archive for The Name Game Special.
Every song will have a name in the song title. Maybe you’ll hear Sheila, Tommy, Barbara Ann, Lucille, Diana, and who knows who else.
Happy
Birthday wishes this week to Roy Geldart

Stuart Olesen in Portland, Maine and to my friend and
