March 17th to 23rd, 2019
Hello Donna, Linda, Mickey, Freddie, Leroy, Jack, Timothy, Mary, and... I hope you enjoyed hearing your name in song on the annual Name Game Special. It always surprises me just how many songs have been recorded that have a name in the title. And it's a pleasure for me to present all these great songs in one four hour special. By the way, there are still a ton more songs with names in the title that I just no time to play. For the complete list of songs played on the show, go to the Listen page and scroll down to the Playlist.Happy Birthday wishes go out to Rick Canode in Madison, Wisconsin. Rick is a long time friend, listener, show supporter and contributor with his week Rare Rock & Roll Relic. All the best to you Rick. Also Happy Birthday to another long time listener, Joel Drucker in Randolph, New Jersey. If your birthday coming up soon, I'd like to help celebrate your special day on the show. Send the details to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com. I'll wish you Happy Birthday on the air and also play Birthday by The Beatles for you.
Voice Your Choice spotlights the great R&B singer, songwriter, arranger and producer, Barry White. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Can't Get Enough Of Your Love, Baby or I'm Gonna Love Your Just A Little More Baby. I bet it will be a close result. I'll play the winner in the third hour of next week's show.
This week the Top Five Countdown is from 1967, this week's Spotlight Year. The Number One song is by The Beatles. Penny Lane is playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog.
