May 31st to June 6th, 2020
Be sure to join me for the Live Daily Edition of Treasure Island Oldies, weekdays at 11 am Pacific, 1 pm Central, 2 pm Eastern, 3 pm Atlantic.
It was great to be with you once again for the Sunday evening Live four hour weekly show. It's this show that will play over twenty times this week. Check out the Broadcast Partners Network page for the days and times. The biggest difference, for me at least, is just how the feel of the four hour show and daily one hour show are. I feel I can stretch out more on the Sunday show to include the features you enjoy every week, like the Lounge Double, Top Five Countdown, Rick's Rare Rock & Roll Relic, Tom Locke Moment In Time, plus Voice Your Choice and more. Oh yes, I also frequently hear from listeners who let me know when their birthday is approaching. I'd like to hear from you too. To send a comment about the show, make a request or tell me about your birthday, just send a note to me. michael@treasureislandoldies.com
As today is the 1st of June, I decided to play the 1st charted records by some of your favourite artists on the Monday Daily Edition of the show. I sure enjoyed playing The Orlons, Marvin Gaye, The Beatles and Rolling Stones, and so many more. For tomorrow I have a real treat for you. I just got a new turntable for the studio and apart from playing 45s and 33s, it can also play those so cool 78 rpm records. As a result, I dug up some very cool 78s from the 1950s to play for you tomorrow for the entire hour. In the over 23 years I have been doing the show, tomorrow will be the very first time I can play a 78 rpm record on the show. You don't want to miss tomorrow's show, starting at 11 am Pacific, 2 pm Eastern.
I have received many comments from you regarding the cool show promos that play on the Home page. Thank You. It's nice being able to see the upcoming specials. And I've passed on your kind words to Eddy Fisher, webmaster extraordinaire! He appreciates it very much. And speaking of upcoming specials, the annual Father's Day special will take place on Sunday, June 21st. Join me in this celebration of Dads with some cool tunes.
If your birthday is coming up soon, I'd like to help you celebrate your birthday with all the show's listeners. 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.
Next week on Treasure Island Oldies, Voice Your Choice spotlights the legendary Four Tops. Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Seven Rooms Of Gloom or Bernadette. I'll play the winner on next week's show.
The Top Five Countdown this week is from 1963, and the debut single by Lesley Gore sits at Number One on the charts. It's My Party is playing at the Treasure Island Oldies Blog.
