February 24th, 2013 to March 3rd, 2013
Thanks for listening to this week's show
and our extensive Tribute to the Dave Clark Five
and in respect for the passing of Rick Huxley.
He was the co-founder of the group and the bass player in the band. If did not
get to hear the live you, you're in for a treat when you listen to the Archive.
Each hour opens up with a triple play of
DC5 hits. There are even some Lost Treasures you'll hear by the group. You
know, the Dave Clark 5 appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show
more than any other group from the rock and pop era. Quite a feat and quite a
legacy of fantastic music from a great band. I know you'll enjoy our tribute, Island style.
The Chat Room was buzzing this week and great to see both new and old faces
joining the regular Nuts In The Hut,
the name affectionately attributed to the regulars in the Chat Room. A big
hello to Linda G in LaHabra, California;
it was fun having you come by for a visit. Hi to Tommy
in Crossville, Tennessee
and Robert in Los Angeles, California
and via email hi to Geoff Eden in Welland, Ontario and Joe Morgan from his mobile phone. He's listening to the show
on his mobile and said he really enjoys the show and wanted to hear Everybody Knows by the Dave Clark Five.
Great to hear from Ineyda Velasquez
in Homestead, Florida who
asked for a great song, Isn't It A Pity
in celebration of George Harrison's
birthday this week. Great to hear from you all.
Happy Birthday wishes this week to George Mooth in
Edwardsburg, Michigan, and to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame DJ, my friend David Marsden, in Toronto, Ontario.
If you have a birthday coming up, send the details of your name, city and
birthday date to birthdays@treasureislandoldies.com.
I'll help you celebrate by wishing you Happy Birthday on the show and I'll also
play Birthday for you by The Beatles.
The Treasure Island Oldies
Blog is also paying tribute to Rick Huxley,
