Originally aired March 31, 2008 - "Come To The Sunshine" episode #40 explores the world of A&M records in the 1960's. Founded by Herb Alpert & Jerry Moss, A&M was a stomping ground for a coterie of creative producers, arrangers, songwriters and performers.

A&M nurtured so many fine talents that it would be impossible to capture them all in one show. This edition of "Come To The Sunshine" was culled from a survey of more than 300 of A&M's single releases to present you with a banner show of 50 fine specimens. Each and every single was painstakingly transferred from the original MONO vinyl pressings in order of actual release to illustrate the full impact and arc of the

La Brea sound.

Come with us on a journey from single #770 to #1118 featuring singles by:

We Five/Two People/The Sugar Beats/The Grads/The Magic Mushrooms/Tommy Boyce/Roger Nichols Trio/The Merry-Go-Round/The Parade/Claudine Longet/The Garden Club/The Wanted/Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart/Eternity's Children/The Golden Bough/West Coast Branch/The Light/A Small Circle Of Friends/The Full Treatment/Phil Ochs/The Move/Tommy & The True Blue Facts/Fairchilds/Michael Brewer & Tom Shipley/Lee Michaels/Larry Marks/The Bottom Line/Doug Dillard & Gene Clark/London Phogg/The Ronettes Featuring the voice of Veronica/The Flying Burrito Bros/Ike & Tina Turner

In an episode first broadcast May 11, 2009, host Andrew Sandoval is back from his UK travels and armed with a stack of unplayed radio archive 45's from the 1960's.

In hour two, Sandoval spins his favorite Pretty Things album, "Emotions" (1967), in MONO from the original Fontana vinyl. If you haven't heard this lovely album before, it is a real treat - perhaps their best set of pop songs coupled with way-out orchestration. You can only find the stereo mix on CD. The hour is capped off by more early Pretty Things selections and rarities.

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
