I
hope you enjoyed our salute to work, school and summer on our Annual Labour Day Back To School End Of
Summer Special. Playing all those work songs got me exhausted! LOL It
always surprises just how many songs fit into a specific theme. And getting all
three themes together for this week's show was a blast. I'd like to thank you
for the many requests I received. I always do my best to play them for you. In
case you missed the Live show, be
sure to check out the Archives on
the Listen Page.
Our
sincere condolences go out to my friend, long time listener and weekly
contributor to the show, Rick Canode,
whose dad passed away last Friday at age 92. Wayne Canode had just reached his 70th Wedding Anniversary but was
in very poor health. Rick, my thoughts are with you and your family.
I'd
like to wish Connie "Kitten"
Howe in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania a very Happy Birthday. If you've
got a birthday coming up, send the details of your name, city and birthday date
to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
I'd sure like to help celebrate your birthday too, by wishing you Happy
Birthday on the show and also by playing Birthday by The Beatles.
The
Treasure Island Oldies Blog is keeping
with our show theme this week and is playing a clip from the 1968 TV Special, The Beat Of The Brass. Here's Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass and The Work Song. It's our Song
Of The Week. Enjoy!
Voice Your Choice presents Vanity Fare, a group from England.
Cast your vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either Early In The Morning or Hitchin'A Ride. I'll play the winner in the 3rd hour of next week's show.

& Roll News for the Week of September 2nd, 2012

Bye for now.
