SPECIAL P.F. Sloan birthday salute

Phil "Flip" Sloan is without a doubt one of America's most talented, albeit under appreciated songwriters. To commemorate his birthday on September 18th, "Come To The Sunshine" compiled its third salute to the man who's music means so much. Part one of the show includes covers of Sloan's work by The Mama's and Papa's, The Forte Four (produced by Gary Usher), Lloyd Banks (from the UK), The Turtles, Peter & Gordon, The Iguanas, Johnny Tillotson, The Gibsons (another rare UK cover), Bobby Vee, Ann-Margaret, The Searchers and Herman's Hermits. Additionally, the first part of the program features a few of Sloan's solo recordings, as well as a rare single with his songwriting partner Steve Barri under the name of Philip & Stephen. Part two of the broadcast is a triple album spotlight of songs either produced or written by P.F. Sloan for the Canadian only Terry Black album, The Black Plague and Barry McGuire's two Dunhill long-players: Eve Of Destruction and This Precious Time. All selections are presented in their original monaural mixes, currently unavailable on CD. A full playlist of this show is available at http://www.cometothesunshine.com/id111.html
