	12:07pm doctorjazz: Was sorry/happy to be missing the Blue Note 45 (always makes me search to see if I can still get them-usually I can, but for a high price).

	12:13pm doctorjazz: Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue was just reissued by Mobile Fidelity, 45 RPM "UHQR" release (their premium of premium releases), selling for $150 new!
	12:14pm Gerry from Miami: Are we back to normal yet? I WAS really enjoying that Vietnamese love ballad. What was the source? One of the other streams? ANYWAY, Uncle Michael, glad to be tuning in to Hinky Dinky Time today. Technical snafus don't bother me as much as they used to.
	12:14pm johnk77: pete la roca went to music & art high school nyc the previous location uptown
	12:15pm adamdoesit: Sheesh, doc, at that price, it should be more than "kind of" blue.
	🛒 12:15pm Alvy Singer: Hi Uncle Michael. Peter La Roca became a lawyer since playing music wasn't offering a living wage.
	12:17pm KimSorise: Hi UM and All - Love this underwater Herbie Mann rendition <3
	12:17pm johnk77: interesting career path pro musician turned lawyer barry melton from the fish did that
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: john! alvy! Kim!
	12:18pm Gerry from Miami: Mobile Fidelity waa recently cited for issuing a vinyl disc that claimed to be EXCLUSIVELY from analog master tape sources, but was not. Naughty naughty, MFSR!
	🛒 12:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hell - we got Video, Chat - & most of all totally bitchen Musics - Live - from Kansas out in the middle of the USA ...I mean - how frickin' Kewl is this really...
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Take that, mfsr-fckr!
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: This is the most horrifying album cover.
	12:20pm Zipperhead7: I think Duane Allman plays on some tracks of that Herbie Mann album
	12:21pm dan: @UM Should be a movie poster for some horror porno
	12:22pm adamdoesit: <turns on twitch>Oh god, that cover<turns off twitch>. Used record stores are legally required to offer at least one dollar bin copy of Push Push at all times.
	🛒 12:22pm Alvy Singer: Jerry Garcia on pedal-steel guitar.
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Duane was on that track....under water. Yes, Alvy.
	12:22pm Dean: I bet listener-commenters can identify more horrifying LP covers than one featuring a hirsute topless guy wielding his flute. I mean, Brain Salad Surgery?
	🛒 12:23pm Alvy Singer: Nash brought in an impressive group of guests to assist in the recording, including David Crosby, Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, Dave Mason, David Lindley, Rita Coolidge, and Neil Young under his early 1970s pseudonym Joe Yankee.
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: P.E.R.R.O., Alvy.
	12:23pm Zipperhead7: All time best album cover is Louvin Brothers' "Satan Is Real"
	🛒 12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...MFSL busted for issuing many ! In fact that was pretty much their whole PR - 'no Digital steps'. This is not to say they aren't super conscientious about Mastering for excellence from proprietary sources. It's also a step that's pretty common standard practice. But that's one big phat glaring omission. That's my understanding... The first thing in Mastering is not Compressing the whole Album based on only the loudest moment - & flattening everything else out. That would drive Hendrix for example around the bend...
	12:24pm doctorjazz: @Gerry from Miami, yeah, it was a big controversy in the Audiophile world (which comprises of about 15 people...). One step did use very high resolution digital files (DSD), which likely doesn't degrade the sound to an audible degree, but it's the lie they used to promote their expensive LP's as being "All Analog" that has them in an uproar.
	12:25pm Zipperhead7: The melody to this is almost identical to Carole King's "He's a Bad Boy"
	12:27pm johnk77: mastering medium to medium is an art & a craft for rock music it had a lot to do with how many minutes u wanted to get on a side of vinyl
	12:27pm dan: The best arrangement of musicians on record are the first two McGarrigle Sisters records. You have a combination of Canadian, American and British musicians that are from the McGarrigle's hometown, the Wrecking Crew, the 1970s Singer Songwriter crowd and Fairport Convention and their contemporaries.
	12:27pm Dean: @doctorjazz and I have discussed the MF "house sound." I once heard a beat-up early pressing of Yes's Close to the Edge followed by a MF remaster, both on a top-notch system. The MF had that smooth, transparent reproduction of detail, but frankly we all thought the beat-up oldie was more fun.
	🛒 12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When I was a little kid - my cheap record player couldn't even handle, say, BlackSabbath. Stylus would simply skate.
	12:30pm Zipperhead7: When his songs came on the radio, my mom always said how much she liked "Cats Domino"
	12:30pm doctorjazz: There's a school of record collectors that believes NONE of the fancy reissues are the equal of the original LP issues. I generally don't have the time/patience to sit and listen/compare different pressings, if it sounds good, it makes me happy...
	🛒 12:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The (urm...) Masters of Mastering knew what Medium they had @ hand & how we'd be listening. Digital has ...or had? ...seduced us with Hearing More ...but the Art of it has been - say - long in catching up. Also things mixed & mastered now for Spotify & earbuds or who even knows anymore...
	12:31pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Great opening set!
	12:32pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Mousing Error, yet another good band name.
	12:33pm Gerry from Miami: "Catch Bull at Four" is a fabulous album, both songwise and sonically. Way to go, A&M! Cat was in a groove back then!
	12:34pm adamdoesit: dan, now those are records that could benefit from the super hi-fi treatment. I've never found a copy that sounds as good as it oughta.
	12:34pm KWilde: Good Afternoon!
	12:34pm Dean: All I know is that when I made a substantial upgrade to my almost 40-year-old turntable last year, the first record I played was random, a copy of America's Greatest Hits in so-so shape. It was gorgeous, top to bottom.
	🛒 12:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I would say 'unnecessary' more than 'terrifying'. :D ...but I suppose that's situational...
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: KWilde! Dean!
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: I'm with you, Dean.
	12:40pm StringOFperils: Hello Uncle Michael. Hello Friday.
	12:40pm TDK60: Howdy DJ UM.
	🛒 12:41pm Alvy Singer: I believe Gypsy is from Minneapolis. Makes me wonder if these guys influenced Kansas.
	12:42pm dan: @adamdoesit I know what you mean. Some of the songs sound fine, but on others, the background is almost hazy.
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: SOp! TDK! They influenced Iowa, who influenced Nebraska, who ultimately influenced Kansas.
	12:45pm KWilde: UM!
	12:46pm adamdoesit: @dan, yup, that. My greater wish is to find a live recording where they stretch their legs a bit. Such pleasure should last a little longer.
	12:47pm johnk77: jon pareles nytimes 1982 pete la roca on law/jazzmusic balance https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/15/arts/lawyer-drummer-makes-a-case-for-his-day-gig.html?unlocked_article_code=EIMO2_feK83JoQ62rDHdTm8urK_jGtS0b7y-7ZcwOEUBgKLpo47eguh7JRvaIM_h27pFDERfqrud4IP3DRCfd0aP4jfNZG5SpRpj0M0TbjBd8vpJfZMpQbC-_oByhQ2CwnTAiLrZJzgPkL9fl9Kp9ocFxj_r_UMq2mTk0oy1VSw3fsqI_YEv9PtD7uS512qfF2xjLgPzg4jJvZNQVY9lBV4peiuCwc-jFd_3qbTQh-5Udh0XNdaKtxQap25KmKGKMibCzpTsY0uyrvMS-CtmO-Ik9O15qasVlL_fKFJI0cRQnA9iE1464hqas_ajxupCOwJL_VKCxinSCf8kTyHLVZmosuIUHJruWBlSP_GuQ05K&smid=share-url
	12:53pm Gerry from Miami: @johnk77. What is the point of having a URL that lengthy and complicated? Can't reach the material---it's "unclickable." So Pete LaRoca went from being a musician to practicing law. 'Nuff said!
	12:54pm Dean: Re: URLs, you can simply copy/paste everything up to but not including the first question mark, thus: https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/15/arts/lawyer-drummer-makes-a-case-for-his-day-gig.html I had no problem with it.
	12:55pm Dean: The story is about La Roca (i.e., Sims) returning to playing while continuing to practice law. Interesting stuff.
	12:55pm TDK60: We need lawyers who go into law to help musicians gain a living wage. And everyone else too.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Anyone's dad can pay for studio time...and here's proof!
	12:56pm Dean: I learned just yesterday about a group of lawyers, law professors, etc., who are planning a web presence for people (like me) interested in law and poetry.
	12:56pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks for your help, Dean! Still, though, what's with those humongous URLs??
	12:57pm dan: @TDK60 And advise the musicians on the contracts they sign. Too many acts have gotten screwed because they're not familiar with contract law. (eg. Little River Band)
	12:57pm Dean: That's all session-specific garbage.
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Then there's Denny Zeitlin, who pulled off being both a psychiatrist and a jazz pianist, or Dave Soldier, of the Soldier String Quartet, who's a neuroscientist.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: So was that The Five track, Dean.
	🛒 12:58pm PAULS: I like when Franks gets Mose-y
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Love this Franks!
	12:59pm Dean: And my friend Richard Mendelson is a lawyer, law school instructor, author of wine law history, winemaker, and sculptor.
	1:00pm Dean: I bet The Five's garbage output crossed multiple sessions.
	🛒 1:00pm PAULS: Hello, ER doctor/Radio Birdman co-founder Deniz Tek
	1:02pm johnk77: michael franks was support on bonnie raitt live date possibly palladium nyc?
	🛒 1:02pm PAULS: Oh shit hang on.... the NEW KING IS SPEAKING. And I ain't talkin' bout Uncle Michael
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Muskegs me your just thinking of pulling off those dual demanding careers (tried studying jazz guitar while in school, that didn't go far...)
	1:04pm johnk77: sorry posters nytimes makes me jump thru hoops to even create those gigantic urls i am afraid to edit them
	1:04pm still b/p: I was listening to Michael Franks and Barry White and Love Unlimited at the same time. Do I look okay?
	1:04pm doctorjazz: *makes me exhausted, should have read... ..
	🛒 1:04pm PAULS: bitly.com, johnk77 -- I use it all the time! Makes me feel younger, true story
	1:05pm TDK60: There was also a 1980s Pittsburgh punk band, The Five.
	🛒 1:06pm PAULS: And of course We Five, with the lovely Beverly Bivens <3
	1:07pm johnk77: @pauls thanks is this the same thing? https://bitly.com/pages/home/v2
	1:08pm doctorjazz: FOW!!!! (Miss them...)
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: me too, Doc
	🛒 1:09pm PAULS: Auto-correct, my love, doctorjazz. Just so ya know... mus·keg /ˈməskeɡ/ plural noun: muskegs a North American swamp or bog consisting of a mixture of water and partly dead vegetation, frequently covered by a layer of sphagnum or other mosses.
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Glad I caught them on their last concert tour.
	1:09pm Gerry from Miami: UM, last weekend WASN'T Memorial Day weekend! 'Twas LABOR DAY weekend!! Just a smaii verbal glitch. You are forgiven!
	🛒 1:10pm PAULS: @johnk77 -- you got it. Scroll down a bit and you should see the "shorten your link" field, off to the races
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Ummm... I was being ironic. Yeah...that's it.
	1:11pm doctorjazz: My phone upgraded recently...auto correct/typos are even worse than they were before...
	1:11pm adamdoesit: While we're all correcting and perfecting one another, help me out here: how do you DJs, audioflies, and rekkid nerds keep your LPs clean in a pet-rich environment?
	🛒 1:11pm PAULS: OMG I can't believe I actually posted the word "sphagnum" -- I +think that was the name of Doug's 17th first band in high school.
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: I shrank-wrapped my cat.
	🛒 1:12pm PAULS: I believe the band's full name was Sphagnum P.I.
	1:12pm Gerry from Miami: Back when I was young, growing up here in south Florida, Labor Day weekend represented the end of summer. We didn't know anything about "spheres" and such. Summer's over, back to school!!
	🛒 1:13pm PAULS: And, of course, I wanted in the band very, very badly. I'll try to remember exactly what the issue was (Doug?), but no guarantees at this stage in life.
	1:13pm Dean: The reference to Elephant's Memory reminded me (heh, but not on Memorial Day) of one of my bands, neither the first nor in high school: Elephants Dupree. I can't remember any of our hit songs.
	🛒 1:14pm PAULS: GREAT band name, Dean! how about a genre?
	1:14pm doctorjazz: Record cleaning machine here (Old VPI, there are more reasonable recent record cleaning machines out there.
	🛒 1:15pm PAULS: ) there ya go, doc
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: I'm a VPI man too.
	1:15pm Dean: Most of our bands were borderline parody outfits. Punk, but with recorders. Don Ho parodies. Stoopid Country Western.
	🛒 1:16pm PAULS: This one's for Charlie!
	🛒 1:17pm Mxter Baba: Sing it! Hey there, UM and folx!
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Baba!
	🛒 1:17pm PAULS: BABA
	1:17pm Dean: The CW unit was Shit from Shinola. One song was "Gotta Sell the Cow." It invited the audience to join in with the call and response: "Can't sell the cow!" "Gotta sell the cow!" and so on.
	1:18pm Zipperhead7: I was in a cowpunk outfit called Mayberry LSD that played one (1) gig and didn't even get paid
	1:18pm still b/p: Four Lads can make ya tap your foot, but I'm not sure they can achieve substantial movement of the spirit or jumpstart ya on the road to glory.
	1:19pm adamdoesit: Shrink-wrap the cat, vaccum the records. Should I split the differnce and vacuum the cat? (No.)
	1:19pm Dean: For sure, most of our bands played one gig. One band, Goddamn Tractor, played two songs: an improvised tune with lyrics from Sartre's Les Mots, and a cover of Magazine's "Motorcade." Halfway through the Magazine the police arrived.
	🛒 1:19pm Mxter Baba: Zipperhead7: perfect!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: 1st (and last) band,in college, Mixed Nuts! We could play Jumpin' Jack Flash for a half hour, and make the little girls cry with Knights in White Satin (that is,on the rare occasion we got a gig...)
	🛒 1:20pm PAULS: Aw Russell Thompkins! what a set a pipes.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: So we're riding on the carousel of life?
	1:20pm johnk77: cowpunk was a hard genre to get paid in
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: That's right, Jeff. And this will be on the final.
	1:21pm Gerry from Miami: Back to the 50s, eh, Uncle Michael? Love it! BTW, tomorrow, Saturday, September 10, Bob Brainen and Pete Tomlinson are presenting PART 2 of their survey of American pop music, PRE-BEATLES. 11 AM to 2PM here on the Give the Drummer stream. Should be great. PART 1 was.
	1:21pm doctorjazz: Our lead guitarist was Richie, a 14 year old, who's mom needed to give us permission to take him out.
	🛒 1:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...aw geez - got caffeinated & hadda play gittar ...miss everything & I ain't et nuthin' yet & ahm all deef... MayberryLSD for the win !
	1:23pm adamdoesit: doc, "Hello Mrs. Blumberg, can Richie come out and rock?"
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: I love the long album version of almost any hit single.
	🛒 1:23pm PAULS: Rabbit -- at least you knew to get to catch up here FIRST. Oh, and Barney on vibes.
	🛒 1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh Barney's vibes were something else...
	1:24pm johnk77: oed has first reference to cowpunk 1979
	🛒 1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he did talk Richie down from that four-way LSD hit tho - so hey...
	1:26pm still b/p: I thought Linda was Karen for a moment.
	1:27pm adamdoesit: And that's not mentioning the time he talked Mr. Blumberg down from the roof.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Dr. Romano was multi-talented.
	1:27pm Gerry from Miami: Hmmm, never would have guessed that Beach Boys cover was Linda Ronstadt.
	1:28pm dan: One of the songs from Fame that no one remembers, except UM.
	1:28pm johnk77: nice work selecter per wikipedia linda told david geffen to sign lone justice?
	1:28pm Dean: Hmmm, @johnk77, I wonder who this refers to: "She is a daring new kind of rock singer, one that could be called a Cowpunk."
	🛒 1:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...no seriously - this isn't Elton ??
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: Ms. McKee?
	1:31pm Gerry from Miami: UM, got "Manuac" from "Flashdance" nearby? And what was that movie where Kevin Bacon brings dancing to a Midwestern high school?
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: Utah, Gerry.
	🛒 1:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: MariaMcKee - Bryan MacLean's (Love) half-sister.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: I may be wrong about Utah.
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hey you called them like Utah them...
	1:35pm dan: Judith Durham of The Seekers' was memorialized this week in a State Funeral. At the end, the surviving members debuted the group's final single "Carry Me". It's up there with their classics.
	🛒 1:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah that Linda rather great btw.
	1:37pm burke: Alternate history: Ronstadt and Jerry Brown get married and he gets elected president instead of Bill Clinton
	🛒 1:37pm Mxter Baba: Kevin Bacon invented dancing!?!?!
	🛒 1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ThreeForm Radio...
	🛒 1:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes & Michael J. Fox invented Rawk'n'Roll. Cause movies.
	1:39pm johnk77: speaking of california history the new stewart brand doc is good
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: burke!
	1:40pm Dean: I see, a pre-Lone Justice McKee. Could be.
	🛒 1:40pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I just listened to Michael Shelley's interview with Emitt from 2010 and now I have all those great songs playing in my head.
	1:40pm still b/p: Never saw the Footloose. An 80s movie about a dude awakening the town's suppressed dance mojo and shaking the rules loose...is that basically it? I can't...can't.
	🛒 1:41pm PAULS: "Footloose is loosely based on the town of Elmore City, Oklahoma."
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! still b/p!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Laurie Singer. That is all.
	🛒 1:42pm PAULS: Although the movie town is "Bomont" which of course sounds like Beaumont, TX.
	1:42pm Gerry from Miami: UM, the film "Footloose" was made in Utah. But no mention of the state is made, just the fictional town of "Bomont." The story was based on a true incident in Elmore, Oklahoma.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: I feel partially vindicated.
	🛒 1:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you came ...Utah ...you're bonkers...
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Pre-death Chris Penn.
	1:45pm Zipperhead7: I wonder if Elmore OK celebrates Elmore James Day? Everybody out there shakin' their moneymakers. They should!
	🛒 1:45pm PAULS: Post-Bigboote John Lithgow!
	1:46pm Gerry from Miami: Brownie points for thinking of Utah, Uncle Michael!! Maybe play a set of music from dance-oriented films next week! Fame, Flsshdance, Footloose, Saturday Night Fever etc. That would be fun!
	1:48pm doctorjazz: Cool set, UM, getting edgy!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: thanks, Doc
	🛒 1:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even naming your track Distortion in '65 is pretty kewl.
	1:52pm still b/p: In comments the other day, there was mention of a Vietnamese talk show called "I'm Not Coming Home Until It's Spicy." I like to imagine a song of that name delivered in this style right here.
	1:53pm TDK60: How's the feline mammal, Lucas, adjusting to new environs?
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for asking. He's really settling in well. He seems to feel like this is home now.
	1:55pm Zipperhead7: Right! A Vietnamese student told me about it. Apparently a women's talk show like "The View." The entire class lost it when she described it
	🛒 1:58pm dutchtheo: Hallo Oom Micha!
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Theo!
	2:05pm Zipperhead7: Gotta take the dawg out to the woods for awhile. Thanx for the thrills and chills, Unk!
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: take a baggie, Zipperhead
	2:07pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi!
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Jan!
	2:09pm Marie: Just tuning in, sounds great! HI!
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	🛒 2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just saw the CBGB movie on the PlutoTV app. Pretty good !
	2:22pm doctorjazz: Haven't heard Verlaine in quite a while-got to see the regrouped Television at the Solid Sounds Festival before the pandemic.
	🛒 2:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many original components in that Television?
	2:27pm bigplanetnoise: Hi UM - listening and driving - sounding great!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	2:33pm adamdoesit: Meätpïg is my new bandname. Thanks, Mr. Science.
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Three of the Four, RRN6, no Richard Lloyd (forget who played instead, but was a terrific guitarist)
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: vamanos!
	🛒 2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx docjazz. I'm in !
	🛒 2:35pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Friends did a film featuring this song, with jump cuts to shots of Christopher Lee in various horror roles.
	🛒 2:36pm PAULS: Hammer time!
	🛒 2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did I see that ?? Christopher Lee was a dude.
	2:37pm Dean: World's Worst Records yesterday spun Christopher Lee singing "Ghost Riders in the Sky." Truly, a worst.
	🛒 2:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& his Metal album - ?
	2:38pm doctorjazz: Have to check out Worlds Worst Records one of these days, sounds like fun.
	🛒 2:39pm PAULS: I'd like to hear Robert E. Lee's version of Ghost Riders....
	2:39pm Dean: Kitten Sparkles played part of Metal Machine Music. I forgot how good that album was.
	2:40pm Dean: You want irony? A band called Status Quo pleading for better times.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: that's why it went unreleased
	🛒 2:41pm PAULS: OK I changed my mind. I don't want irony! ;)
	2:41pm Dean: Indeed. Rock 'n' rollers are picky about logical rigor.
	🛒 2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Must've been a prime model for SpinalTap. All I got is their very first album - very Freakbeat.
	2:42pm Dean: They should have let Up With People sing it.
	2:43pm bigplanetnoise: What a writer. What a talent.
	2:45pm TDK60: Who is singing? Sounds like the guy from Wings.
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Graham Gouldman
	2:48pm Gerry from Miami: The end of that Graham Gouldman tune betrayed his origins. Had that multi-lsyered vocal choir just like in 10CC''s "I'm Not in Love."
	2:49pm doctorjazz: Nice tasty guitar by Reno...
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Track opened with it too, Gerry.
	🛒 2:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...QueenCC...
	2:51pm Dean: Good story here about Berkeley's Wide Hive Records, who have issued recent Roscoe Mitchell records, among others: https://www.berkeleyside.org/2022/09/09/gregory-howe-wide-hive-records

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from September 9, 2022

View Uncle Michael's profile

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.

	12:13pm doctorjazz: Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue was just reissued by Mobile Fidelity, 45 RPM "UHQR" release (their premium of premium releases), selling for $150 new!
	12:14pm Gerry from Miami: Are we back to normal yet? I WAS really enjoying that Vietnamese love ballad. What was the source? One of the other streams? ANYWAY, Uncle Michael, glad to be tuning in to Hinky Dinky Time today. Technical snafus don't bother me as much as they used to.
	12:14pm johnk77: pete la roca went to music & art high school nyc the previous location uptown
	12:15pm adamdoesit: Sheesh, doc, at that price, it should be more than "kind of" blue.
	🛒 12:15pm Alvy Singer: Hi Uncle Michael. Peter La Roca became a lawyer since playing music wasn't offering a living wage.
	12:17pm KimSorise: Hi UM and All - Love this underwater Herbie Mann rendition <3
	12:17pm johnk77: interesting career path pro musician turned lawyer barry melton from the fish did that
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: john! alvy! Kim!
	12:18pm Gerry from Miami: Mobile Fidelity waa recently cited for issuing a vinyl disc that claimed to be EXCLUSIVELY from analog master tape sources, but was not. Naughty naughty, MFSR!
	🛒 12:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hell - we got Video, Chat - & most of all totally bitchen Musics - Live - from Kansas out in the middle of the USA ...I mean - how frickin' Kewl is this really...
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: Take that, mfsr-fckr!
	12:19pm Uncle Michael: This is the most horrifying album cover.
	12:20pm Zipperhead7: I think Duane Allman plays on some tracks of that Herbie Mann album
	12:21pm dan: @UM Should be a movie poster for some horror porno
	12:22pm adamdoesit: <turns on twitch>Oh god, that cover<turns off twitch>. Used record stores are legally required to offer at least one dollar bin copy of Push Push at all times.
	🛒 12:22pm Alvy Singer: Jerry Garcia on pedal-steel guitar.
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Duane was on that track....under water. Yes, Alvy.
	12:22pm Dean: I bet listener-commenters can identify more horrifying LP covers than one featuring a hirsute topless guy wielding his flute. I mean, Brain Salad Surgery?
	🛒 12:23pm Alvy Singer: Nash brought in an impressive group of guests to assist in the recording, including David Crosby, Jerry Garcia, Phil Lesh, Dave Mason, David Lindley, Rita Coolidge, and Neil Young under his early 1970s pseudonym Joe Yankee.
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: P.E.R.R.O., Alvy.
	12:23pm Zipperhead7: All time best album cover is Louvin Brothers' "Satan Is Real"
	🛒 12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...MFSL busted for issuing many ! In fact that was pretty much their whole PR - 'no Digital steps'. This is not to say they aren't super conscientious about Mastering for excellence from proprietary sources. It's also a step that's pretty common standard practice. But that's one big phat glaring omission. That's my understanding... The first thing in Mastering is not Compressing the whole Album based on only the loudest moment - & flattening everything else out. That would drive Hendrix for example around the bend...
	12:24pm doctorjazz: @Gerry from Miami, yeah, it was a big controversy in the Audiophile world (which comprises of about 15 people...). One step did use very high resolution digital files (DSD), which likely doesn't degrade the sound to an audible degree, but it's the lie they used to promote their expensive LP's as being "All Analog" that has them in an uproar.
	12:25pm Zipperhead7: The melody to this is almost identical to Carole King's "He's a Bad Boy"
	12:27pm johnk77: mastering medium to medium is an art & a craft for rock music it had a lot to do with how many minutes u wanted to get on a side of vinyl
	12:27pm dan: The best arrangement of musicians on record are the first two McGarrigle Sisters records. You have a combination of Canadian, American and British musicians that are from the McGarrigle's hometown, the Wrecking Crew, the 1970s Singer Songwriter crowd and Fairport Convention and their contemporaries.
	12:27pm Dean: @doctorjazz and I have discussed the MF "house sound." I once heard a beat-up early pressing of Yes's Close to the Edge followed by a MF remaster, both on a top-notch system. The MF had that smooth, transparent reproduction of detail, but frankly we all thought the beat-up oldie was more fun.
	🛒 12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: When I was a little kid - my cheap record player couldn't even handle, say, BlackSabbath. Stylus would simply skate.
	12:30pm Zipperhead7: When his songs came on the radio, my mom always said how much she liked "Cats Domino"
	12:30pm doctorjazz: There's a school of record collectors that believes NONE of the fancy reissues are the equal of the original LP issues. I generally don't have the time/patience to sit and listen/compare different pressings, if it sounds good, it makes me happy...
	🛒 12:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The (urm...) Masters of Mastering knew what Medium they had @ hand & how we'd be listening. Digital has ...or had? ...seduced us with Hearing More ...but the Art of it has been - say - long in catching up. Also things mixed & mastered now for Spotify & earbuds or who even knows anymore...
	12:31pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Great opening set!
	12:32pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Mousing Error, yet another good band name.
	12:33pm Gerry from Miami: "Catch Bull at Four" is a fabulous album, both songwise and sonically. Way to go, A&M! Cat was in a groove back then!
	12:34pm adamdoesit: dan, now those are records that could benefit from the super hi-fi treatment. I've never found a copy that sounds as good as it oughta.
	12:34pm KWilde: Good Afternoon!
	12:34pm Dean: All I know is that when I made a substantial upgrade to my almost 40-year-old turntable last year, the first record I played was random, a copy of America's Greatest Hits in so-so shape. It was gorgeous, top to bottom.
	🛒 12:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I would say 'unnecessary' more than 'terrifying'. :D ...but I suppose that's situational...
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: KWilde! Dean!
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: I'm with you, Dean.
	12:40pm StringOFperils: Hello Uncle Michael. Hello Friday.
	12:40pm TDK60: Howdy DJ UM.
	🛒 12:41pm Alvy Singer: I believe Gypsy is from Minneapolis. Makes me wonder if these guys influenced Kansas.
	12:42pm dan: @adamdoesit I know what you mean. Some of the songs sound fine, but on others, the background is almost hazy.
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: SOp! TDK! They influenced Iowa, who influenced Nebraska, who ultimately influenced Kansas.
	12:45pm KWilde: UM!
	12:46pm adamdoesit: @dan, yup, that. My greater wish is to find a live recording where they stretch their legs a bit. Such pleasure should last a little longer.
	12:47pm johnk77: jon pareles nytimes 1982 pete la roca on law/jazzmusic balance https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/15/arts/lawyer-drummer-makes-a-case-for-his-day-gig.html?unlocked_article_code=EIMO2_feK83JoQ62rDHdTm8urK_jGtS0b7y-7ZcwOEUBgKLpo47eguh7JRvaIM_h27pFDERfqrud4IP3DRCfd0aP4jfNZG5SpRpj0M0TbjBd8vpJfZMpQbC-_oByhQ2CwnTAiLrZJzgPkL9fl9Kp9ocFxj_r_UMq2mTk0oy1VSw3fsqI_YEv9PtD7uS512qfF2xjLgPzg4jJvZNQVY9lBV4peiuCwc-jFd_3qbTQh-5Udh0XNdaKtxQap25KmKGKMibCzpTsY0uyrvMS-CtmO-Ik9O15qasVlL_fKFJI0cRQnA9iE1464hqas_ajxupCOwJL_VKCxinSCf8kTyHLVZmosuIUHJruWBlSP_GuQ05K&smid=share-url
	12:53pm Gerry from Miami: @johnk77. What is the point of having a URL that lengthy and complicated? Can't reach the material---it's "unclickable." So Pete LaRoca went from being a musician to practicing law. 'Nuff said!
	12:54pm Dean: Re: URLs, you can simply copy/paste everything up to but not including the first question mark, thus: https://www.nytimes.com/1982/10/15/arts/lawyer-drummer-makes-a-case-for-his-day-gig.html I had no problem with it.
	12:55pm Dean: The story is about La Roca (i.e., Sims) returning to playing while continuing to practice law. Interesting stuff.
	12:55pm TDK60: We need lawyers who go into law to help musicians gain a living wage. And everyone else too.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Anyone's dad can pay for studio time...and here's proof!
	12:56pm Dean: I learned just yesterday about a group of lawyers, law professors, etc., who are planning a web presence for people (like me) interested in law and poetry.
	12:56pm Gerry from Miami: Thanks for your help, Dean! Still, though, what's with those humongous URLs??
	12:57pm dan: @TDK60 And advise the musicians on the contracts they sign. Too many acts have gotten screwed because they're not familiar with contract law. (eg. Little River Band)
	12:57pm Dean: That's all session-specific garbage.
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Then there's Denny Zeitlin, who pulled off being both a psychiatrist and a jazz pianist, or Dave Soldier, of the Soldier String Quartet, who's a neuroscientist.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: So was that The Five track, Dean.
	🛒 12:58pm PAULS: I like when Franks gets Mose-y
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Love this Franks!
	12:59pm Dean: And my friend Richard Mendelson is a lawyer, law school instructor, author of wine law history, winemaker, and sculptor.
	1:00pm Dean: I bet The Five's garbage output crossed multiple sessions.
	🛒 1:00pm PAULS: Hello, ER doctor/Radio Birdman co-founder Deniz Tek
	1:02pm johnk77: michael franks was support on bonnie raitt live date possibly palladium nyc?
	🛒 1:02pm PAULS: Oh shit hang on.... the NEW KING IS SPEAKING. And I ain't talkin' bout Uncle Michael
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Muskegs me your just thinking of pulling off those dual demanding careers (tried studying jazz guitar while in school, that didn't go far...)
	1:04pm johnk77: sorry posters nytimes makes me jump thru hoops to even create those gigantic urls i am afraid to edit them
	1:04pm still b/p: I was listening to Michael Franks and Barry White and Love Unlimited at the same time. Do I look okay?
	1:04pm doctorjazz: *makes me exhausted, should have read... ..
	🛒 1:04pm PAULS: bitly.com, johnk77 -- I use it all the time! Makes me feel younger, true story
	1:05pm TDK60: There was also a 1980s Pittsburgh punk band, The Five.
	🛒 1:06pm PAULS: And of course We Five, with the lovely Beverly Bivens <3
	1:07pm johnk77: @pauls thanks is this the same thing? https://bitly.com/pages/home/v2
	1:08pm doctorjazz: FOW!!!! (Miss them...)
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: me too, Doc
	🛒 1:09pm PAULS: Auto-correct, my love, doctorjazz. Just so ya know... mus·keg /ˈməskeɡ/ plural noun: muskegs a North American swamp or bog consisting of a mixture of water and partly dead vegetation, frequently covered by a layer of sphagnum or other mosses.
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Glad I caught them on their last concert tour.
	1:09pm Gerry from Miami: UM, last weekend WASN'T Memorial Day weekend! 'Twas LABOR DAY weekend!! Just a smaii verbal glitch. You are forgiven!
	🛒 1:10pm PAULS: @johnk77 -- you got it. Scroll down a bit and you should see the "shorten your link" field, off to the races
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Ummm... I was being ironic. Yeah...that's it.
	1:11pm doctorjazz: My phone upgraded recently...auto correct/typos are even worse than they were before...
	1:11pm adamdoesit: While we're all correcting and perfecting one another, help me out here: how do you DJs, audioflies, and rekkid nerds keep your LPs clean in a pet-rich environment?
	🛒 1:11pm PAULS: OMG I can't believe I actually posted the word "sphagnum" -- I +think that was the name of Doug's 17th first band in high school.
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: I shrank-wrapped my cat.
	🛒 1:12pm PAULS: I believe the band's full name was Sphagnum P.I.
	1:12pm Gerry from Miami: Back when I was young, growing up here in south Florida, Labor Day weekend represented the end of summer. We didn't know anything about "spheres" and such. Summer's over, back to school!!
	🛒 1:13pm PAULS: And, of course, I wanted in the band very, very badly. I'll try to remember exactly what the issue was (Doug?), but no guarantees at this stage in life.
	1:13pm Dean: The reference to Elephant's Memory reminded me (heh, but not on Memorial Day) of one of my bands, neither the first nor in high school: Elephants Dupree. I can't remember any of our hit songs.
	🛒 1:14pm PAULS: GREAT band name, Dean! how about a genre?
	1:14pm doctorjazz: Record cleaning machine here (Old VPI, there are more reasonable recent record cleaning machines out there.
	🛒 1:15pm PAULS: ) there ya go, doc
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: I'm a VPI man too.
	1:15pm Dean: Most of our bands were borderline parody outfits. Punk, but with recorders. Don Ho parodies. Stoopid Country Western.
	🛒 1:16pm PAULS: This one's for Charlie!
	🛒 1:17pm Mxter Baba: Sing it! Hey there, UM and folx!
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Baba!
	🛒 1:17pm PAULS: BABA
	1:17pm Dean: The CW unit was Shit from Shinola. One song was "Gotta Sell the Cow." It invited the audience to join in with the call and response: "Can't sell the cow!" "Gotta sell the cow!" and so on.
	1:18pm Zipperhead7: I was in a cowpunk outfit called Mayberry LSD that played one (1) gig and didn't even get paid
	1:18pm still b/p: Four Lads can make ya tap your foot, but I'm not sure they can achieve substantial movement of the spirit or jumpstart ya on the road to glory.
	1:19pm adamdoesit: Shrink-wrap the cat, vaccum the records. Should I split the differnce and vacuum the cat? (No.)
	1:19pm Dean: For sure, most of our bands played one gig. One band, Goddamn Tractor, played two songs: an improvised tune with lyrics from Sartre's Les Mots, and a cover of Magazine's "Motorcade." Halfway through the Magazine the police arrived.
	🛒 1:19pm Mxter Baba: Zipperhead7: perfect!
	1:20pm doctorjazz: 1st (and last) band,in college, Mixed Nuts! We could play Jumpin' Jack Flash for a half hour, and make the little girls cry with Knights in White Satin (that is,on the rare occasion we got a gig...)
	🛒 1:20pm PAULS: Aw Russell Thompkins! what a set a pipes.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: So we're riding on the carousel of life?
	1:20pm johnk77: cowpunk was a hard genre to get paid in

	1:21pm Gerry from Miami: Back to the 50s, eh, Uncle Michael? Love it! BTW, tomorrow, Saturday, September 10, Bob Brainen and Pete Tomlinson are presenting PART 2 of their survey of American pop music, PRE-BEATLES. 11 AM to 2PM here on the Give the Drummer stream. Should be great. PART 1 was.
	1:21pm doctorjazz: Our lead guitarist was Richie, a 14 year old, who's mom needed to give us permission to take him out.
	🛒 1:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...aw geez - got caffeinated & hadda play gittar ...miss everything & I ain't et nuthin' yet & ahm all deef... MayberryLSD for the win !
	1:23pm adamdoesit: doc, "Hello Mrs. Blumberg, can Richie come out and rock?"
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: I love the long album version of almost any hit single.
	🛒 1:23pm PAULS: Rabbit -- at least you knew to get to catch up here FIRST. Oh, and Barney on vibes.
	🛒 1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...oh Barney's vibes were something else...
	1:24pm johnk77: oed has first reference to cowpunk 1979
	🛒 1:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he did talk Richie down from that four-way LSD hit tho - so hey...
	1:26pm still b/p: I thought Linda was Karen for a moment.
	1:27pm adamdoesit: And that's not mentioning the time he talked Mr. Blumberg down from the roof.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Dr. Romano was multi-talented.
	1:27pm Gerry from Miami: Hmmm, never would have guessed that Beach Boys cover was Linda Ronstadt.
	1:28pm dan: One of the songs from Fame that no one remembers, except UM.
	1:28pm johnk77: nice work selecter per wikipedia linda told david geffen to sign lone justice?
	1:28pm Dean: Hmmm, @johnk77, I wonder who this refers to: "She is a daring new kind of rock singer, one that could be called a Cowpunk."
	🛒 1:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...no seriously - this isn't Elton ??
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: Ms. McKee?
	1:31pm Gerry from Miami: UM, got "Manuac" from "Flashdance" nearby? And what was that movie where Kevin Bacon brings dancing to a Midwestern high school?
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: Utah, Gerry.
	🛒 1:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: MariaMcKee - Bryan MacLean's (Love) half-sister.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: I may be wrong about Utah.
	🛒 1:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...hey you called them like Utah them...
	1:35pm dan: Judith Durham of The Seekers' was memorialized this week in a State Funeral. At the end, the surviving members debuted the group's final single "Carry Me". It's up there with their classics.
	🛒 1:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah that Linda rather great btw.
	1:37pm burke: Alternate history: Ronstadt and Jerry Brown get married and he gets elected president instead of Bill Clinton
	🛒 1:37pm Mxter Baba: Kevin Bacon invented dancing!?!?!
	🛒 1:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...ThreeForm Radio...
	🛒 1:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes & Michael J. Fox invented Rawk'n'Roll. Cause movies.
	1:39pm johnk77: speaking of california history the new stewart brand doc is good
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: burke!
	1:40pm Dean: I see, a pre-Lone Justice McKee. Could be.
	🛒 1:40pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I just listened to Michael Shelley's interview with Emitt from 2010 and now I have all those great songs playing in my head.
	1:40pm still b/p: Never saw the Footloose. An 80s movie about a dude awakening the town's suppressed dance mojo and shaking the rules loose...is that basically it? I can't...can't.
	🛒 1:41pm PAULS: "Footloose is loosely based on the town of Elmore City, Oklahoma."
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! still b/p!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Laurie Singer. That is all.
	🛒 1:42pm PAULS: Although the movie town is "Bomont" which of course sounds like Beaumont, TX.
	1:42pm Gerry from Miami: UM, the film "Footloose" was made in Utah. But no mention of the state is made, just the fictional town of "Bomont." The story was based on a true incident in Elmore, Oklahoma.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: I feel partially vindicated.
	🛒 1:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you came ...Utah ...you're bonkers...
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Pre-death Chris Penn.
	1:45pm Zipperhead7: I wonder if Elmore OK celebrates Elmore James Day? Everybody out there shakin' their moneymakers. They should!
	🛒 1:45pm PAULS: Post-Bigboote John Lithgow!
	1:46pm Gerry from Miami: Brownie points for thinking of Utah, Uncle Michael!! Maybe play a set of music from dance-oriented films next week! Fame, Flsshdance, Footloose, Saturday Night Fever etc. That would be fun!
	1:48pm doctorjazz: Cool set, UM, getting edgy!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: thanks, Doc
	🛒 1:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Even naming your track Distortion in '65 is pretty kewl.
	1:52pm still b/p: In comments the other day, there was mention of a Vietnamese talk show called "I'm Not Coming Home Until It's Spicy." I like to imagine a song of that name delivered in this style right here.
	1:53pm TDK60: How's the feline mammal, Lucas, adjusting to new environs?
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for asking. He's really settling in well. He seems to feel like this is home now.
	1:55pm Zipperhead7: Right! A Vietnamese student told me about it. Apparently a women's talk show like "The View." The entire class lost it when she described it
	🛒 1:58pm dutchtheo: Hallo Oom Micha!
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: Theo!
	2:05pm Zipperhead7: Gotta take the dawg out to the woods for awhile. Thanx for the thrills and chills, Unk!
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: take a baggie, Zipperhead
	2:07pm Jan Turkenburg: Hi!
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Jan!
	2:09pm Marie: Just tuning in, sounds great! HI!
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	🛒 2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Just saw the CBGB movie on the PlutoTV app. Pretty good !
	2:22pm doctorjazz: Haven't heard Verlaine in quite a while-got to see the regrouped Television at the Solid Sounds Festival before the pandemic.
	🛒 2:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many original components in that Television?
	2:27pm bigplanetnoise: Hi UM - listening and driving - sounding great!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	2:33pm adamdoesit: Meätpïg is my new bandname. Thanks, Mr. Science.
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Three of the Four, RRN6, no Richard Lloyd (forget who played instead, but was a terrific guitarist)
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: vamanos!
	🛒 2:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx docjazz. I'm in !
	🛒 2:35pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Friends did a film featuring this song, with jump cuts to shots of Christopher Lee in various horror roles.
	🛒 2:36pm PAULS: Hammer time!
	🛒 2:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Did I see that ?? Christopher Lee was a dude.
	2:37pm Dean: World's Worst Records yesterday spun Christopher Lee singing "Ghost Riders in the Sky." Truly, a worst.
	🛒 2:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& his Metal album - ?
	2:38pm doctorjazz: Have to check out Worlds Worst Records one of these days, sounds like fun.
	🛒 2:39pm PAULS: I'd like to hear Robert E. Lee's version of Ghost Riders....
	2:39pm Dean: Kitten Sparkles played part of Metal Machine Music. I forgot how good that album was.
	2:40pm Dean: You want irony? A band called Status Quo pleading for better times.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: that's why it went unreleased
	🛒 2:41pm PAULS: OK I changed my mind. I don't want irony! ;)
	2:41pm Dean: Indeed. Rock 'n' rollers are picky about logical rigor.
	🛒 2:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Must've been a prime model for SpinalTap. All I got is their very first album - very Freakbeat.
	2:42pm Dean: They should have let Up With People sing it.
	2:43pm bigplanetnoise: What a writer. What a talent.
	2:45pm TDK60: Who is singing? Sounds like the guy from Wings.
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Graham Gouldman
	2:48pm Gerry from Miami: The end of that Graham Gouldman tune betrayed his origins. Had that multi-lsyered vocal choir just like in 10CC''s "I'm Not in Love."
	2:49pm doctorjazz: Nice tasty guitar by Reno...
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Track opened with it too, Gerry.
	🛒 2:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...QueenCC...
	2:51pm Dean: Good story here about Berkeley's Wide Hive Records, who have issued recent Roscoe Mitchell records, among others: https://www.berkeleyside.org/2022/09/09/gregory-howe-wide-hive-records
