	12:06pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! James! Bob! Doc! Parq! chromaphone! Holland! Alex! Henry!
	12:08pm Jeff Golick: It seems highly illogical that the two seated dudes would sway toward each other, but maybe there are some seat physics we cannot account for. Also hi!
	12:08pm Marie: Hey UM, love this song and funny image!
	12:09pm Alex In Illinois: Actually my day has been so busy it has been as if running through turbulence like that.
	12:09pm Webhamster Henry: There's a spacetime ripple going through the bridge!
	12:09pm listener james from westwood: Tea! Earl Grey! Hot!

	12:11pm chromaphone: Another show I like played this exact version last Tuesday.
	12:11pm JP from KC: OOOOH YEAH! Gotta dig that Paul Butterfield! Ahoy, Uncle Michael and HD Timers!
	🛒 12:12pm Brian in UK: Hello Uncle. Some say the English took the Blues back to the US, well how come Butterfield is playing this then.
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: JP! What show, chromaphone?
	12:12pm coelacanth: greetings Uncle M and Hinkies; Dinkies; Time-Lordes.
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: coelacanth!
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	🛒 12:13pm Brian in UK: @Jeff it you have been in the bars of Troponin 3 then you would sway that way.
	12:14pm coelacanth: this work song cooks! what kinda work are they tawkin about?
	12:14pm chromaphone: Eli's Lost & Found show on WMBR 88.1 www.track-blaster.com...
	12:15pm mauri: the michael from u.n.k.l.e
	12:15pm Dominick: Oh my, these computers are so naughty and complex, I could just pinch them!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: thanks!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: mauri! Dominick!
	12:16pm Stanley: Them Star Trekkers are jivin' good to this track
	12:17pm doctorjazz: Toots!!!!!
	12:18pm doctorjazz: Give it to me ONE TIME!!!
	12:19pm doctorjazz: Ughhh!
	12:19pm Jeff Golick: Clickly star for Toots.
	12:20pm Jeff Golick: What exactly is the significance of this number?
	12:20pm Alex In Illinois: I saw toots & the Maytals in St. Louis years ago at Mississippi Nights. He is kind of a little guy, but so was everyone in the band including the backup singers, so they made the stage seem larger.
	12:20pm melinda: hi UM! and hinkies.
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: melinda! prison number Jeff?
	12:22pm doctorjazz: I was also a bit surprised when I saw Toots, such a big voice, expected a massive guy.
	12:24pm Dominick: Expecting to hear Eddie Lawrence over this
	12:24pm mauri: GT oujee
	12:26pm chromaphone: Santana talked about East/West as being hugely important in his autobio
	12:26pm Alex In Illinois: Yes a big voice, adding to the illusion that the venue was larger.
	🛒 12:28pm Brian in UK: Uncle and the foresight of Jac Holzman signing them to Elektra.
	12:28pm chromaphone: Shuggie!
	12:29pm Jeff Golick: [Belated HA! to @Brian...]
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Right, Brian!
	12:31pm Little Danny: Sanford Clark's "A Cheat" from '56 has incredible Eastern-tinged guitar from Al Casey. Hi Michael!
	12:31pm Sue P.: The Strawberry Letter 23 7" is a cherished slice of my childhood. Still sounds as good today.
	12:33pm doctorjazz: From that great BST 1st album.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: Top tip, Danny! Thanks. Sue!
	12:35pm Mike East: I can't hear a goddamn thing cuz there's a highschool concert band using our lobby as a warmup room. The worst sound ever! I'd rather listen to marbles in a blender.
	12:36pm Alex In Illinois: OOoo yeah! Marbles in a blender! (Homer Simpson drooling look)
	12:36pm listener james from westwood: @Mike East: Kenny G probably played such a track on his old FMU show.
	12:36pm JP from KC: I'm practically hearing marbles in a blender now. The HVAC guys are sawing metal in the ceiling above my office. REAL conducive to my work (audio production).
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: Roll tape, JP!
	12:37pm Mike East: (I think someone described Bryce's show that way once...I definitely ripped it off some FMU commenter...full disclosure)
	12:37pm chromaphone: I wonder how many people know that alligator lizards actually exist? They don't fly much though.
	12:37pm Dominick: I hear what your doing here
	12:37pm JP from KC: HA! Not a bad idea, but you can't dance to it!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: shhh Dominick
	12:40pm ndbob: one of Marvin's bet
	12:41pm Bohack's: snow's white to illuminate long winter nights
	12:42pm Jeff Golick: Wow this Stevie is totally new to me. Outstanding.
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: Bohack! wilkommen!
	12:43pm ndbob: on Alan Lee's Sunday night oldies show in Baltimore this was the most requested song.
	12:43pm Marie: Purple (!) raindrops. Inspiration for Prince? Prince RIP. I am so sad about his death.
	12:43pm coelacanth: if you play purple people eater i might go put on that Paul Butterfield album though!
	12:44pm listener james from westwood: So I wasn't dreaming that I heard the words "purple rain" in the America cut, then?
	12:44pm davefromtoronto: i like america's purple rain better than prince's purple rain... what the hell is a "purple rain" anyways?
	12:48pm coelacanth: hmm, missed the rain reference in Meghan's Gypsy Eyes and thought it was a purple eyes thing.
	12:48pm chromaphone: I listened to an interview with Shuggie and he said Prince told him he was a big influence on him.
	🛒 12:50pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Good morning. Missed the first set due to work interfering, can you imagine?
	12:50pm ndbob: I guess Prince is a kind of "guilty non-pleasure" for me _ I can respect that's he's an important, major artist, with a big cultural impact, but his music never did much for me
	12:50pm Lane Gray: Good morning! My favorite chromatic harp player is Max Geldray
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Dave! Lizzie! Lane!
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Hello Lane. How did the gig go the other week?
	12:54pm Lane Gray: Much fun. Turns out it's the second Saturday of every month.
	12:56pm Parq: NBob, although I dug the Artist more than you apparently did, I completely get what you're saying. And I love the phrase "guilty non-pleasure" and will be stealing it wantonly.
	12:57pm ndbob: @Parq Please do:)
	12:57pm coelacanth: that was a Brilliant set UM, even though i missed the rain reference...somehow - even though i knew it was about Prince.
	12:58pm Mhinca: Holy crap! Whose searing guitar was that on that D.O.C. Track..? And what cave was i hiding in that i never heard them before?
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: thanks coelacanth!
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Mhinca!
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I know they sampled Cosmic Slop for the riff...but I can't tell you anything about the lead guitar on it. I could dig out the CD booklet later.
	1:04pm Mhinca: UM thx but no need for xtra effort. im sure google or one of your savvy listeners know
	1:04pm listener james from westwood: Hells yes to Rainbow!
	1:04pm joe: \m/
	1:05pm joe: 'ello folks
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	1:05pm jmd: Dio really knew how to exploit the RnR "Oh, no" through his whole career!
	1:05pm Lane Gray: Dangit. I'm running solo and the subwoofer under the bunk just died. This thing normally has an amazing stereo
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: jmd!
	1:09pm listener james from westwood: Here I thought they were pronouncing heroin "hee-ron" in "The Corner" on a lark, but now I hear it here. Was he a Baltimorean?
	1:09pm joe: Reading over the playlist I am cursing the "leaders" of my company for dragging me into a pointless meeting.
	1:11pm davefromtoronto: i don't know what's worse to be addicted to, heroin or religion...
	1:11pm listener james from westwood: (Googling "King Hannibal" sans song title brings back a MFer of hits for the historical general!)
	1:12pm listener james from westwood: @davefromtoronto: As I recall a European philosopher had an aphorism re: that.
	1:12pm joe: Mr. Blackmore suffers from no such ego at all.
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: Just good marketing, then.
	1:19pm chromaphone: Sometimes a silly guitar solo is what we all need.
	1:19pm V Priceless: Hey Uncle M!
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: Joe, don't follow leaders...
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: VP!
	1:24pm Mhinca: This EP track is rather reminiscent of that song "what is hip"
	1:24pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Guido! EP were from Cincinnati...with an affinity for Oakland, it seems.
	1:32pm joe: Fopp'n right!!!!
	1:32pm davefromtoronto: didn't know you were so full of funk, uncle michael!
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: I am. Activate the gif for this one.
	1:33pm Sue P.: Fopp! Another great 7" from my childhood. My friend's dad had a great record collection.
	1:34pm Tate: can you turn the heat up...its cold in the midwest
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: Quit whining, flyover-boy.
	1:40pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, this is a good'un. Would expect no less from Duane.
	1:41pm Little Danny: Curb Records! You're a brave man.
	1:42pm coelacanth: is there a bad version of this?
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Without a net, Danny...blindfolded.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: coelacanth, yes.
	1:43pm coelacanth: maybe if Telly Savales or William Schatner did it...but then- they'd be so bad they'd be Great!
	1:44pm JP from KC: Oh HELL yes. This Charlie Rich is FIRE!
	1:44pm coelacanth: okay, Uncle. now i must seek it out!
	1:45pm Lane Gray: The Nashville Bar Association (a steel guitar ensemble, get it? Yuk yuk) recorded a gloriously cheesy version, with an interlude of Buddy Emmons playing steel processed to mimic harpsichord
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: JP...right?
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: ew, Lane.
	1:46pm Lane Gray: Smoking Charlie
	1:46pm Dean: Buckwheat Zydeco does a mean version of "Hye, Good Lookin'" with Dwight Yoakam.
	1:47pm Dominick: Good gravy!
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: so tempted to speed this up...
	1:47pm Lane Gray: He almost sounded like an American 4Balls
	1:49pm Bohack's: bring back the old minstrels!
	1:49pm Dominick: Arranged an conducted by Chuck Sagle - never forget
	1:49pm coelacanth: that Charlie Rich was hot! ..and the nitty gritty dirt band's version was my gateway to Hank. (Rich's is much better)
	1:49pm davefromtoronto: it's like an SCTV parody
	1:51pm coelacanth: what held you back? let's hear some New Chipmunk Minstrels! ...Lane, i will find that ew version!
	🛒 1:51pm Brian in UK: Moody Blues song?
	1:51pm Guido from Cologne: Ah! The ’N Betweens!
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Brian.
	1:52pm Guido from Cologne: Great album, ridiculous cover art.
	🛒 1:54pm Brian in UK: @Guido Spot on. When they adopted a skinhead image.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Which, Guido?
	1:54pm coelacanth: Dean @146 -that sounds worthy too.
	1:54pm holland oats: the 80s, aww
	1:55pm Guido from Cologne: Ambrose Slade's first. sonic youth had both great art and album.
	1:56pm Guido from Cologne: img.discogs.com...
	1:57pm chromaphone: Another record from the 80s that doesn't sound horrible! neat
	1:59pm Guido from Cologne: The name "Ambrose Slade" came frome the crazy girlfried of their manager at the time. the band absolutely hated it. (can be I do not recall it accurate enough but something like this.)
	2:02pm coelacanth: i haven't listened to that album in a while, but that track was thoroughly enjoyed.
	2:02pm coelacanth: imaginary radio.
	2:02pm Guido from Cologne: It was Chris T.
	2:02pm holland oats: imaginary radio yep that was a good'un
	2:02pm JP from KC: I think it was imaginary radio. I heard that show, too. it was, in fact, great.
	2:03pm Lane Gray: Coelacanth, I have the vinyl. I'll try to rip it. Or let Unca Michael do it. LOL
	2:04pm Dean: Speaking of unorthodox versions, fans of Cage's 4'33" must "hear" this rendition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGEG4JiOqew
	2:04pm Alex In Illinois: It is rather difficult to find a lot of music recordings before the 1880s.
	2:05pm coelacanth: Lane, Thanks! - but i have the record too! i just haven't dug it out in a while.
	2:05pm holland oats: some linda perhacs, perhaps?
	2:06pm burke: Parallelograms...just a killer album. What a voice. That recent followup release by Perhacs was a trip.
	2:07pm Tate: get your parkas ready for the Cubbies game this afternoon
	2:07pm Guido from Cologne: Guess that's the original mix. The CD re-issue is more balanced.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: burke! (belatedly) Dean!
	2:08pm listener james from westwood: Perhacs I can find new ways to motivate them... /vader
	2:08pm Guido from Cologne: But I like it the raw way, great to have the opportunety to hear.
	2:10pm Little Danny: Great segue outta Perhacs!
	2:12pm coelacanth: i crack up thinking of what people's reaction to Linda Perhacs was then. "on the album cover she looks normal!"..."she CAN sing - what the hell is she thinking?"
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Danny, you'll come to know my good segue's are mostly fortuitous accidents.
	2:12pm listener james from westwood: Solid Kirby!
	2:12pm Bohack's: . . . . scant sales originally, Perhac's " 'Parallelograms' was rediscovered with the rise of the NEW WEIRD AMERICA movement "
	2:13pm coelacanth: hahaha! "new weird america"!
	2:14pm coelacanth: "Make America Weird Again!"
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: YES!
	2:15pm ndbob: It's interesting that the Perhacs record came out on a major label
	2:15pm JP from KC: Love this album name!
	2:16pm JP from KC: the Leyland Kirby album, I mean.
	2:19pm JP from KC: I hope you're dedicating this Ann Peebles track to the Atlanta Braves, today.
	2:21pm Guido from Cologne: kapp was an indie label. specialized on esy listening though. perhacs and silver apples were exceptions.
	2:21pm coelacanth: oh man, it's been even longer for this one. Great to hear again!
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Tate, JP, yayy! world's worst umpire behind the plate!
	2:24pm Stanley: Hippie Goddesses Compilation 1970's Gotta get that one
	2:25pm Alex In Illinois: I remember hiking snowbound Highway 40 in the winter of 79. My school actually closed, and it was one of those schools which usually never closed for snow days.
	2:25pm Dominick: Kapp also had The Critters, Good Rats
	2:28pm coelacanth: no pun intended.
	2:28pm geezerette: Late to the party but when I see Shuggie Otis on the list I'm definitely going to archives to listen from the top! Happy weekend Uncle Michael!
	2:29pm JP from KC: Geezerette! Welcome to the party!
	2:30pm coelacanth: hey geezerette!
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: geezerette!
	2:31pm JP from KC: Haven't heard this Wings track before. It got me to turn the Cubs down for a bit, though. That's an impressive feat!
	2:31pm Dean: I totally do not remember this tune from this album, and I listened to "Wild Life" a good piece back then.
	2:32pm geezerette: Hi Guys! Good to "see" you all! :)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: It's a bonus track on the 2nd or 3rd "Wild Life" reissue.
	2:35pm JP from KC: If one wanted to delve into Chet Baker's discography for the first time, can anybody recommend where one might start?
	2:35pm Parq: Was (shout-out to Charlie) busy doing some things. Back for the last reel.
	2:35pm Dean: Whew. I thought maybe it had blown away with the coming storm I drank to forget.
	2:36pm Stanley: Good job I've got my smoking jacket on for this.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Wow, JP...where to start. Chet Baker Sings and Plays, maybe?
	2:37pm geezerette: @JP: Gerry Mulligan Quartet with Chet Baker!!! 1953 I think. Lyrical minimalism,gorgeous!
	2:39pm geezerette: @JP: Listen to your Uncle Michael! Sings & PLays is sing-ular!
	2:40pm JP from KC: Thanks, UM & Geezerette! I felt a pang of shame in writing that. I feel like I should've gotten into his work much earlier. I'll have to check out both of those albums.
	2:41pm geezerette: Gotta go guys, see you later! No shame JP, just joy when you hear it!
	2:42pm Ham: whoa, this is great.
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: see ya G
	2:42pm JP from KC: Thanks, Geeze. Take care!
	2:43pm Uncle Michael: Ham! The cumbia?
	2:45pm Ham: those low vocals that kept interjecting.
	2:46pm listener james from westwood: Loving this cumbia! And now craving calzones.
	2:46pm Ham: ..la rumba.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: sin calzones...I'm afraid.
	2:48pm chromaphone: Jesse Kaminsky introduced me to this stuff
	2:49pm Parq: Gavotte? Gevult!
	2:50pm Ham: ¡sin calzones! ¡ay ya ya!
	2:51pm Listener Robert: Is he saying rumba or Roomba?
	2:52pm chromaphone: Oh, I thought you meant Sedaka.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I, for one, welcome our Roomba overlords.
	🛒 2:54pm Brian in UK: Changeable April Evening. Good title for a live album. Great show Uncle..
	2:56pm JP from KC: Excellent show today, Uncle Michael! Catch you next week. GO CUBS!
	2:57pm V Priceless: Randy! Thanks Uncle M!
	2:57pm Dominick: Ciao!
	2:57pm Doug Schulkind: Have a lovely weekend, Friday Radio Brother, and everyone!
	2:57pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:58pm Parq: UM @ 2:53 -- thank you for inspiring my pleasant Google time-wasting adventure for the day.
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone! it was a gas.
	3:00pm coelacanth: Thanks Uncle M. Excellent program it's been! ciao y'all.
	3:00pm chromaphone: Thanks UM!
	3:00pm JP from KC: Wow. Glad I didn't tune out before I heard this gem. I love it!
	3:01pm listener james from westwood: Ahh, many thanks, UM!
	3:01pm coelacanth: ahhh, Peter.
	3:03pm Smug Stanley: Another fine show, UM. (Who needs a teevee when you have radio like this)
	3:05pm Uncle Michael: See you later!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from April 29, 2016

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.

	12:08pm Jeff Golick: It seems highly illogical that the two seated dudes would sway toward each other, but maybe there are some seat physics we cannot account for. Also hi!
	12:08pm Marie: Hey UM, love this song and funny image!
	12:09pm Alex In Illinois: Actually my day has been so busy it has been as if running through turbulence like that.

	12:18pm doctorjazz: Give it to me ONE TIME!!!
	12:19pm doctorjazz: Ughhh!
	12:19pm Jeff Golick: Clickly star for Toots.
	12:20pm Jeff Golick: What exactly is the significance of this number?
	12:20pm Alex In Illinois: I saw toots & the Maytals in St. Louis years ago at Mississippi Nights. He is kind of a little guy, but so was everyone in the band including the backup singers, so they made the stage seem larger.
	12:20pm melinda: hi UM! and hinkies.
	12:21pm Uncle Michael: melinda! prison number Jeff?
	12:22pm doctorjazz: I was also a bit surprised when I saw Toots, such a big voice, expected a massive guy.
	12:24pm Dominick: Expecting to hear Eddie Lawrence over this
	12:24pm mauri: GT oujee
	12:26pm chromaphone: Santana talked about East/West as being hugely important in his autobio
	12:26pm Alex In Illinois: Yes a big voice, adding to the illusion that the venue was larger.
	🛒 12:28pm Brian in UK: Uncle and the foresight of Jac Holzman signing them to Elektra.
	12:28pm chromaphone: Shuggie!
	12:29pm Jeff Golick: [Belated HA! to @Brian...]
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Right, Brian!
	12:31pm Little Danny: Sanford Clark's "A Cheat" from '56 has incredible Eastern-tinged guitar from Al Casey. Hi Michael!
	12:31pm Sue P.: The Strawberry Letter 23 7" is a cherished slice of my childhood. Still sounds as good today.
	12:33pm doctorjazz: From that great BST 1st album.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: Top tip, Danny! Thanks. Sue!
	12:35pm Mike East: I can't hear a goddamn thing cuz there's a highschool concert band using our lobby as a warmup room. The worst sound ever! I'd rather listen to marbles in a blender.
	12:36pm Alex In Illinois: OOoo yeah! Marbles in a blender! (Homer Simpson drooling look)
	12:36pm listener james from westwood: @Mike East: Kenny G probably played such a track on his old FMU show.
	12:36pm JP from KC: I'm practically hearing marbles in a blender now. The HVAC guys are sawing metal in the ceiling above my office. REAL conducive to my work (audio production).
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: Roll tape, JP!
	12:37pm Mike East: (I think someone described Bryce's show that way once...I definitely ripped it off some FMU commenter...full disclosure)
	12:37pm chromaphone: I wonder how many people know that alligator lizards actually exist? They don't fly much though.
	12:37pm Dominick: I hear what your doing here
	12:37pm JP from KC: HA! Not a bad idea, but you can't dance to it!
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: shhh Dominick
	12:40pm ndbob: one of Marvin's bet
	12:41pm Bohack's: snow's white to illuminate long winter nights
	12:42pm Jeff Golick: Wow this Stevie is totally new to me. Outstanding.
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: Bohack! wilkommen!
	12:43pm ndbob: on Alan Lee's Sunday night oldies show in Baltimore this was the most requested song.
	12:43pm Marie: Purple (!) raindrops. Inspiration for Prince? Prince RIP. I am so sad about his death.
	12:43pm coelacanth: if you play purple people eater i might go put on that Paul Butterfield album though!
	12:44pm listener james from westwood: So I wasn't dreaming that I heard the words "purple rain" in the America cut, then?
	12:44pm davefromtoronto: i like america's purple rain better than prince's purple rain... what the hell is a "purple rain" anyways?
	12:48pm coelacanth: hmm, missed the rain reference in Meghan's Gypsy Eyes and thought it was a purple eyes thing.
	12:48pm chromaphone: I listened to an interview with Shuggie and he said Prince told him he was a big influence on him.
	🛒 12:50pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Good morning. Missed the first set due to work interfering, can you imagine?
	12:50pm ndbob: I guess Prince is a kind of "guilty non-pleasure" for me _ I can respect that's he's an important, major artist, with a big cultural impact, but his music never did much for me
	12:50pm Lane Gray: Good morning! My favorite chromatic harp player is Max Geldray
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Dave! Lizzie! Lane!
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Hello Lane. How did the gig go the other week?
	12:54pm Lane Gray: Much fun. Turns out it's the second Saturday of every month.
	12:56pm Parq: NBob, although I dug the Artist more than you apparently did, I completely get what you're saying. And I love the phrase "guilty non-pleasure" and will be stealing it wantonly.
	12:57pm ndbob: @Parq Please do:)
	12:57pm coelacanth: that was a Brilliant set UM, even though i missed the rain reference...somehow - even though i knew it was about Prince.
	12:58pm Mhinca: Holy crap! Whose searing guitar was that on that D.O.C. Track..? And what cave was i hiding in that i never heard them before?
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: thanks coelacanth!
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Mhinca!
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I know they sampled Cosmic Slop for the riff...but I can't tell you anything about the lead guitar on it. I could dig out the CD booklet later.
	1:04pm Mhinca: UM thx but no need for xtra effort. im sure google or one of your savvy listeners know
	1:04pm listener james from westwood: Hells yes to Rainbow!
	1:04pm joe: \m/
	1:05pm joe: 'ello folks
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	1:05pm jmd: Dio really knew how to exploit the RnR "Oh, no" through his whole career!
	1:05pm Lane Gray: Dangit. I'm running solo and the subwoofer under the bunk just died. This thing normally has an amazing stereo
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: jmd!
	1:09pm listener james from westwood: Here I thought they were pronouncing heroin "hee-ron" in "The Corner" on a lark, but now I hear it here. Was he a Baltimorean?
	1:09pm joe: Reading over the playlist I am cursing the "leaders" of my company for dragging me into a pointless meeting.
	1:11pm davefromtoronto: i don't know what's worse to be addicted to, heroin or religion...
	1:11pm listener james from westwood: (Googling "King Hannibal" sans song title brings back a MFer of hits for the historical general!)
	1:12pm listener james from westwood: @davefromtoronto: As I recall a European philosopher had an aphorism re: that.
	1:12pm joe: Mr. Blackmore suffers from no such ego at all.
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: Just good marketing, then.
	1:19pm chromaphone: Sometimes a silly guitar solo is what we all need.
	1:19pm V Priceless: Hey Uncle M!
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: Joe, don't follow leaders...
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: VP!
	1:24pm Mhinca: This EP track is rather reminiscent of that song "what is hip"
	1:24pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Guido! EP were from Cincinnati...with an affinity for Oakland, it seems.
	1:32pm joe: Fopp'n right!!!!
	1:32pm davefromtoronto: didn't know you were so full of funk, uncle michael!
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: I am. Activate the gif for this one.
	1:33pm Sue P.: Fopp! Another great 7" from my childhood. My friend's dad had a great record collection.
	1:34pm Tate: can you turn the heat up...its cold in the midwest
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: Quit whining, flyover-boy.
	1:40pm listener james from westwood: Ooh, this is a good'un. Would expect no less from Duane.
	1:41pm Little Danny: Curb Records! You're a brave man.
	1:42pm coelacanth: is there a bad version of this?
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Without a net, Danny...blindfolded.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: coelacanth, yes.
	1:43pm coelacanth: maybe if Telly Savales or William Schatner did it...but then- they'd be so bad they'd be Great!
	1:44pm JP from KC: Oh HELL yes. This Charlie Rich is FIRE!
	1:44pm coelacanth: okay, Uncle. now i must seek it out!
	1:45pm Lane Gray: The Nashville Bar Association (a steel guitar ensemble, get it? Yuk yuk) recorded a gloriously cheesy version, with an interlude of Buddy Emmons playing steel processed to mimic harpsichord
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: JP...right?
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: ew, Lane.
	1:46pm Lane Gray: Smoking Charlie
	1:46pm Dean: Buckwheat Zydeco does a mean version of "Hye, Good Lookin'" with Dwight Yoakam.
	1:47pm Dominick: Good gravy!
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: so tempted to speed this up...
	1:47pm Lane Gray: He almost sounded like an American 4Balls
	1:49pm Bohack's: bring back the old minstrels!
	1:49pm Dominick: Arranged an conducted by Chuck Sagle - never forget
	1:49pm coelacanth: that Charlie Rich was hot! ..and the nitty gritty dirt band's version was my gateway to Hank. (Rich's is much better)
	1:49pm davefromtoronto: it's like an SCTV parody
	1:51pm coelacanth: what held you back? let's hear some New Chipmunk Minstrels! ...Lane, i will find that ew version!
	🛒 1:51pm Brian in UK: Moody Blues song?
	1:51pm Guido from Cologne: Ah! The ’N Betweens!
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Brian.
	1:52pm Guido from Cologne: Great album, ridiculous cover art.
	🛒 1:54pm Brian in UK: @Guido Spot on. When they adopted a skinhead image.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Which, Guido?
	1:54pm coelacanth: Dean @146 -that sounds worthy too.
	1:54pm holland oats: the 80s, aww
	1:55pm Guido from Cologne: Ambrose Slade's first. sonic youth had both great art and album.
	1:56pm Guido from Cologne: img.discogs.com...
	1:57pm chromaphone: Another record from the 80s that doesn't sound horrible! neat
	1:59pm Guido from Cologne: The name "Ambrose Slade" came frome the crazy girlfried of their manager at the time. the band absolutely hated it. (can be I do not recall it accurate enough but something like this.)
	2:02pm coelacanth: i haven't listened to that album in a while, but that track was thoroughly enjoyed.
	2:02pm coelacanth: imaginary radio.
	2:02pm Guido from Cologne: It was Chris T.
	2:02pm holland oats: imaginary radio yep that was a good'un
	2:02pm JP from KC: I think it was imaginary radio. I heard that show, too. it was, in fact, great.
	2:03pm Lane Gray: Coelacanth, I have the vinyl. I'll try to rip it. Or let Unca Michael do it. LOL
	2:04pm Dean: Speaking of unorthodox versions, fans of Cage's 4'33" must "hear" this rendition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGEG4JiOqew
	2:04pm Alex In Illinois: It is rather difficult to find a lot of music recordings before the 1880s.
	2:05pm coelacanth: Lane, Thanks! - but i have the record too! i just haven't dug it out in a while.
	2:05pm holland oats: some linda perhacs, perhaps?
	2:06pm burke: Parallelograms...just a killer album. What a voice. That recent followup release by Perhacs was a trip.
	2:07pm Tate: get your parkas ready for the Cubbies game this afternoon
	2:07pm Guido from Cologne: Guess that's the original mix. The CD re-issue is more balanced.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: burke! (belatedly) Dean!
	2:08pm listener james from westwood: Perhacs I can find new ways to motivate them... /vader
	2:08pm Guido from Cologne: But I like it the raw way, great to have the opportunety to hear.
	2:10pm Little Danny: Great segue outta Perhacs!
	2:12pm coelacanth: i crack up thinking of what people's reaction to Linda Perhacs was then. "on the album cover she looks normal!"..."she CAN sing - what the hell is she thinking?"
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Danny, you'll come to know my good segue's are mostly fortuitous accidents.
	2:12pm listener james from westwood: Solid Kirby!
	2:12pm Bohack's: . . . . scant sales originally, Perhac's " 'Parallelograms' was rediscovered with the rise of the NEW WEIRD AMERICA movement "
	2:13pm coelacanth: hahaha! "new weird america"!
	2:14pm coelacanth: "Make America Weird Again!"
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: YES!
	2:15pm ndbob: It's interesting that the Perhacs record came out on a major label
	2:15pm JP from KC: Love this album name!
	2:16pm JP from KC: the Leyland Kirby album, I mean.
	2:19pm JP from KC: I hope you're dedicating this Ann Peebles track to the Atlanta Braves, today.
	2:21pm Guido from Cologne: kapp was an indie label. specialized on esy listening though. perhacs and silver apples were exceptions.
	2:21pm coelacanth: oh man, it's been even longer for this one. Great to hear again!
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Tate, JP, yayy! world's worst umpire behind the plate!
	2:24pm Stanley: Hippie Goddesses Compilation 1970's Gotta get that one
	2:25pm Alex In Illinois: I remember hiking snowbound Highway 40 in the winter of 79. My school actually closed, and it was one of those schools which usually never closed for snow days.
	2:25pm Dominick: Kapp also had The Critters, Good Rats
	2:28pm coelacanth: no pun intended.
	2:28pm geezerette: Late to the party but when I see Shuggie Otis on the list I'm definitely going to archives to listen from the top! Happy weekend Uncle Michael!
	2:29pm JP from KC: Geezerette! Welcome to the party!
	2:30pm coelacanth: hey geezerette!
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: geezerette!
	2:31pm JP from KC: Haven't heard this Wings track before. It got me to turn the Cubs down for a bit, though. That's an impressive feat!
	2:31pm Dean: I totally do not remember this tune from this album, and I listened to "Wild Life" a good piece back then.
	2:32pm geezerette: Hi Guys! Good to "see" you all! :)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: It's a bonus track on the 2nd or 3rd "Wild Life" reissue.
	2:35pm JP from KC: If one wanted to delve into Chet Baker's discography for the first time, can anybody recommend where one might start?
	2:35pm Parq: Was (shout-out to Charlie) busy doing some things. Back for the last reel.
	2:35pm Dean: Whew. I thought maybe it had blown away with the coming storm I drank to forget.
	2:36pm Stanley: Good job I've got my smoking jacket on for this.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Wow, JP...where to start. Chet Baker Sings and Plays, maybe?
	2:37pm geezerette: @JP: Gerry Mulligan Quartet with Chet Baker!!! 1953 I think. Lyrical minimalism,gorgeous!
	2:39pm geezerette: @JP: Listen to your Uncle Michael! Sings & PLays is sing-ular!
	2:40pm JP from KC: Thanks, UM & Geezerette! I felt a pang of shame in writing that. I feel like I should've gotten into his work much earlier. I'll have to check out both of those albums.
	2:41pm geezerette: Gotta go guys, see you later! No shame JP, just joy when you hear it!
	2:42pm Ham: whoa, this is great.
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: see ya G
	2:42pm JP from KC: Thanks, Geeze. Take care!
	2:43pm Uncle Michael: Ham! The cumbia?
	2:45pm Ham: those low vocals that kept interjecting.
	2:46pm listener james from westwood: Loving this cumbia! And now craving calzones.
	2:46pm Ham: ..la rumba.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: sin calzones...I'm afraid.
	2:48pm chromaphone: Jesse Kaminsky introduced me to this stuff
	2:49pm Parq: Gavotte? Gevult!
	2:50pm Ham: ¡sin calzones! ¡ay ya ya!
	2:51pm Listener Robert: Is he saying rumba or Roomba?
	2:52pm chromaphone: Oh, I thought you meant Sedaka.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I, for one, welcome our Roomba overlords.
	🛒 2:54pm Brian in UK: Changeable April Evening. Good title for a live album. Great show Uncle..
	2:56pm JP from KC: Excellent show today, Uncle Michael! Catch you next week. GO CUBS!
