January
25th, 2015 to January 31st, 2015
It was busy in the Chat Room
with the regulars, returning long time listeners, plus new ones. It’s really
like having a visit with your friends every week. How nice is that??!! You should
really try it out for yourself; I know you’ll find it takes listening to the
show to a new level. Simply Click Chat
on any page of the website any Sunday evening when the Live Show is on the air.
Follow the easy instructions and voila! You’ll be in the Chat Room and one of
the Nuts in the Hut.
It was also good to hear from several listeners with their requests,
both by email as well as by calling the Listener
Line at 206-339-0709. I’d love to hear from you and play a special song for
you.
Next
week it’s our annual Tribute to The
Day The Music Died. Be sure to listen during the 4th hour for
news clips and interviews plus the great music of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. And the
following week, Sunday, February 8th,
it’s the Annual Valentine’s Day Special.
Don’t forget to buy (or make) a Valentine’s card for your special someone and
also email you request or call the Listener Line to record your request
message. I look forward to hearing from you.
The next 18th
Anniversary Contest winner will be announced Sunday, February 22nd during the Live show. You can’t
win the poster of your choice from TNJ Poster Creations if you don’t enter. Click the Celebrate 18 logo on the website for full details. Just so you
know, there is NO PURCHASE NECESSARY to be eligible to be a winner.
Happy
Birthday wishes go out to Fred Waterer
in St. Catharines, Ontario. All the
best to you Fred. And if your own birthday is coming up soon, be sure to let me
know. I’ll wish you Happy Birthday on the show and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
I played Simon and Garfunkel’s
At The Zoo on the show and decided to play them again at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog. It’s a
great clip from their Concert In Central
Park from 1981. You can almost hear a pin drop as they perform The Sound Of Silence. It’s our Song of the Week. Enjoy!
Voice
Your Choice shines the spotlight on Little
Anthony and the Imperials with just two of their many hit records. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Goin’ Out Of My Head or Hurt So Bad. I’ll play the winner in the 3rd hour of next week’s show.
Here’s the Rock and Roll News
for the week of January 26th
Listen to the Top 5 Countdown from
1962
Have a really good week and remember, the days are getting brighter,
longer, so spring can’t be that far off!
See you next week on the Island.
Bye for now.
