Just What the Doctor Ordered: Feel Good Songs Prescribed by Mr. Personality - Dr. Don Rose!

LISTEN TO THIS BRIEF SEGMENT TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH DON ROSE'S VOICE:

A rosey

good morning

to you! This is

Dr. Donald

D. Rose

aka Dr. Don Rose

aka Dr. Don aka

Mr. Personality.

I'm one of the veteran Top 40 DJs featured in the Cruisin' series.

In a nutshell I rosied to fame in the mid 60s at WQXI Atlanta

("Quixie In Dixie"). From the late 60s to early 70s I was

part of "The Pop Music Explosion" at WFIL radio

in Philadelphia, and from 1973 to 1986 I was

known as The King of Bay Area Radio...

one of the jocks at KFRC in San Francisco.

I'm pleased as punch to

inform you that, starting

next year, I'll be joining

The Shady Bunch crew
here on S-P-M-M. My

new show will be called
Rose-Colored

Glasses.

It'll be based on my years

doing the morning drive

at "Quixie In Dixie"

in Atlanta.

Together we'll look at the past
thru Rose-Colored Glasses
and listen to the authentic
sound of top 40 radio in the
60s brought to you in vibrant
Futuresonic Stereo Surround.

It's just what the doctor
ordered... music to put
a smile on your face,

a song in your heart,
some pep in your step
and pride in your stride!

People stop me on the street and ask me why I

call myself Doctor Don. I tell them I studied to

become a surgeon, but failed to make the cut. (MOOOOO!) Behind the mic as your DJ doc,

I make sound decisions... all of them good.

Today I'm dispensing free samples. This is

the strongest lineup of tunes you can get

without a prescription. You'll find that my

injections of humor are all in vein, but my

jokes'll keep you in stitches. (MOOOOO!)

That's right, folks, a blend of music and

laughter is the best medicine, and that's

my modus operandi on Rose-Colored

Glasses, so take these seven songs and

call me in the morning. (MOOOOO!)

Bunches of 60s records have a cold open aka cold intro. I'll be playing a lot
of them on Rose-Colored Glasses and I included a few in today's preview.

My new show on S-P-M-M will feature the best music of the 60s in a
variety of categories including soul and R&B, so let's get right
down to the real nitty gritty with this Shirley Ellis top 10 ditty!

"The Nitty Gritty" - Shirley Ellis

(Dec. 1963/Jan. 1964, highest chart pos. #8)

A sensational sound there from Bronx soul

thrush Shirley Ellis and "The Nitty Gritty."

Like the bands of the British Invasion?

I got you covered on my new show with

gems like this one. It's a newly enhanced

version of a classic by The Hollies, their

top 10 American hit-- "Carrie-Anne!"

"Carrie-Anne" - The Hollies

(July 1967, highest chart pos. #9)

That was a new, enhanced remix of
"Carrie-Anne" by The Hollies that has
the song sounding better than ever
before. It's the kind of thing you'll
hear on Rose-Colored Glasses

and S-P-M-M, Retrosonic Radio

in Futuresonic Stereo Surround.

Along with the greatest hits of soul,

R&B and the British Invasion, my

show will feature folk-rock, garage

rock and the emerging hard rock

sound of the 60s, like this nugget

by the San Francisco psychedelic

rock band Jefferson Airplane--

"Somebody To Love!"

"Somebody To Love" - Jefferson Airplane

(Apr./May 1967, highest chart pos. #5)

The Slick sound of Jefferson Airplane and their breakthrough hit "Somebody To Love." Hey,

if you're just tuning in, I'm Dr. Don Rose...

the DJ 4 out of 5 proctologists recommend.

(MOOOOO!) and this is a preview of my

new radio show Rose-Colored Glasses

coming soon to S-P-M-M... the #1

station for a rock 'n roll nation.

On Rose-Colored Glasses I'll play

something old, something newer,

something borrowed (covers)

and something bluer, including

girl group gems like this one

by The Chiffons-- "He's So Fine!"

"He's So Fine" - The Chiffons

(Mar./Apr. 1963, highest chart pos. #1)

That was the groovy girl group sound of

"He's So Fine" by another soulful act from

The Bronx, New York, The Chiffons, and

you're tuned to a sneak preview of my new

show Rose-Colored Glasses with Dr. Don

Rose. So far we've crossed over several

different styles of music I'll be playing

on my show, and here's another. It's

the teen pop/girl pop category, and

here's poster girl Lesley Gore with a

great example-- "Look Of Love!"

"Look Of Love" - Lesley Gore

(Jan./Feb. 1965, highest chart pos. 27)

That was lovely Lesley Gore asking the musical

question, "Isn't that the look of love?" Shucks,

I chalked it up to indigestion. (MOOOOO!)

As you can see & hear, Rose-Colored Glasses

will cover a variety of genres - the greatest hits

of Top 40 radio in the 60s. Taken as directed,

my show is safe and effective and guaranteed

to make you-- "Keep On Dancing!"

"Keep On Dancing" - The Gentrys

(Sept./Oct. 1965, highest chart pos. #4,

scenes from Mar. 1989 film Troop Beverly Hills)

The Gentrys and "Keep On Dancing," and if you are following the simulcast

on YouTube, you watched a scene from the movie Troop Beverly Hills

with budding young actresses and Carla Gugino and Kellie Martin.

Heavens to Betsy, they're waving me off

already. I don't know about you, folks,

but after listening to that super song set

of the 60s, I'm dancing on the table tops

and my ears can't stop smiling.

in your morn, then be sure to tune in to my

Speaking of glasses, here's John Fred and his Playboys

a fake nose and a handlebar mustache!"
