'Good Lovin', and Eddie regretfully tells how 'The Young Rascals' wound up with the hit,even though The Olympics release sold 22,000 copies the first day of it's release and was climbing the charts.

ROCK-IT RADIO DJ'S CELEBRATED 10 YEARS OF
INDEPENDENT BROADCASTING!
For many it was a most memorable weekend for Rock-it Radio
DJ's as we celebrated 10 years of Independent Internet
Broadcasting. Though we have been on other mediums since 1995.
It all started on Friday June 27th. As Rock-it Radio DJ Lane Quigley hosted and toured our out of the area DJ's to Hollywood, California and some of the more popular spots and also a visit to Amoeba records to restock on everyone's playlist.
That Friday night Bennie Dingo and Jammin' Jan hosted a dinner at
The La Paz Mexican Seafood Restaurant in Calabasas, California
dedicating the night as DJ Appreciation night and all the wives and girlfriends that tolerate us to do Rock-it Radio.
At the home of Lane and Pat Quigley that following Saturday June 28th was the true celebration -- Lane and Pat are excellent hosts and you couldn't ask for nicer weather. Outside of myself and Lane every Rock-it Radio DJ had to make a trip of at least 400 miles to attend -- It's a true honor to have a great bunch of DJ's willing to celebrate and travel that distance -- and in the
case of Johnny G he travelled about 8000 miles from the UK.
Besides the Rock-it Radio DJ's -- Also, attended to celebrate were Freddy 'Boom Boom' Cannon; Lloyd Thaxton; Dee Dee Phelps (of Dick and Dee Dee); Nino Tempo; and Johnny Hayes - West Coast Broadcast Legend and Rock and Roll
Promoter Dan Tytell.
On Sunday June 29th -- Rock-it Radio DJ's gathered in Studio B at Lane's studio and recorded the 10 Year Anniversary Special of Rock-it Radio which will air online at Rock-it Radio in the next couple of weeks.
Sadly, Rick and Judy Ward couldn't make it to the celebration -- As American Airlines at the last minute cancelled there flight -- And Butchie ran into car trouble but Lane was able to reach them by phone and they were able to be joined in the Recording via Landline.
Since Butchie just lives about 3 hours up the Coast -- Johnny G, Leslie Stevens and Pat and Lane Quigley took the drive up there to Lompoc, California where they were able to visit for awhile. It was a wonderful weekend and will never be forgotten by this Dingo!

JOHNNY G AND THE CRUISIN' SHOW ON ROCK-IT RADIO #2598
This week's Cruisin' show features an almost complete Top 30 from
exactly 46 years ago, but not from a usual source. This is the final
Top 30 from a Swedish offshore radio station, Radio Nord, compiled
on 27th June 1962, just days before it closed down on 30th June
following the passing of the Swedish equivalent of the Marine
Broadcasting Offences Act outlawing the station after barely 16
months on air. The ship itself, The MV Bonjour, would later go on
to greater fame as Radio Caroline's ship, renamed The MV MiAmigo.
An interesting mixture of songs, including some that weren't necessarily
hits in Britain or the USA. Among the records you'll hear a few of the
original melodic Radio Nord jingles & even a couple of Swedish radio
commercials of the time.
Just for historical interest the complete Top 30 is listed here (played in
time-honoured reverse order), although, due to lack of availability, 3 of
them aren't played as indicated by a ***

17. Blind Date--Jimmy Starr
It's a great show again and Thanks Dave! If you would like
to send Dave any comments or would just like to say hello.
You can at: radioactivegold@rockitradio.net
Also, Dave is working on some great upcoming shows --
Next week Dave and RadioActivE Gold will be telling the 'The Bon-Aires' Story with Mike Paladino, original baritone-bass singer. They were such a great group from New Jersey and had their run for the roses in '63 on "Rust" records and were produced by Neil Levinson of 'Denise' fame.
Also, upcoming Dave just finished interviewing Eddie Lewis, the soul
surviving member of 'The Olympics.' He's a great guy and told the story from 1954 when the group was known as 'The Challengers' and did their first record, 'I Can Tell' for Melatone Records. A great story with some great Olympics classics.
And next month RadioActivE Gold will be hooking up with original 'Ventures' co-founder Don Wilson to tell their story. The guys there are getting ready for another Japan Tour.
