Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 2, 2024 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Looking back thru the chats - surprised to not see a comment on GASOLIN’ & particularly that easy peasy lemon squeezee song (perhaps I missed it - the Led Zep?). That overblown arrangement was fairly outrageous. Anyway, back in the day I was quite taken by their s/t 1st album. I even found a nice sounding reissued CD. Yet I never ever saw any of their subsequent catalog. If I dare to pursue; any recommendations - perhaps simply move forward in sequence?!

I've been to Chez Panisse once. It was great. But we used to go to César fairly frequently.

My CP story: My wife and I went shopping that day (our anniversary, perhaps?), and for some knucklehead reason I purchased two expensive ties. At the time I wasn't even wearing ties. On the way home buyer's remorse struck. What was I thinking? We dressed up for our dinner at CP, and I wore one of the new ties. At the restaurant the server approached our table to greet us. The first words she uttered: "That's a beautiful tie!" No more remorse.

Taters and ties:
Whilze I was driving, a set or two ago, there was reference in lyrics to mashed potato. I watched portions of Don't Knock The Twist the other night. So much much mashed potato. And so many many skinny ties. If you were on stage, you wore a tie. Chubby's role was quick and stubby. Fun period piece, all in all, and predictably awkward and dreadful.
