Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 19, 2016 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.

I think the spindle is turning, the camera is going around the spindle. Glad I can toggle it off, dizzying!
  12:12pm
Dean:

The spindle is still from the POV of the camera, just as the label is still (the text doesn't budge). But the reflections from the spindle give the appearance of motion. There's no similar illusion for the label.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:12pm
Uncle Michael:

The spindle and record are turning together and stationary, relative to the camera. The reflections on the spindle create the illusion of it moving, relative to the camera.

So, believe it or not, I've been trying to research the Duke Ellington sax player from "...Apple Tree", I believe it was Otto Hardwicke (have to check with Phil Schapp for the definitive word on this). I pulled up the clip and listened, not Hodges, that's my call (and I'm sticking with it!)

Re: Neil MacArthur (note spelling), this from a Goldmine survey in April '04 of various compilations of prog/folk-ish obscure tunes:

"Carved with the same care and detail as last year's Velvet Tinmine exhumation of glam-rock's trashiest moments, ZigZag (named for the English magazine that most championed such artists) rounds up a wealth of names that range from the enduringly memorable (Leo Sayer, Tim Rose, Clifford T. Ward), through a handful of passing dazzlers (Brian Protheroe's ''Pinball'' was a pleasant minor hit, Howard Werth's ''You're Not Smiling'' will have you grinning like an idiot) and onto some genuinely obscure oddities. Who is Jake? What is Ellis? And why did Colin Blunstone change his name to Neil MacArthur? The answers are all here, grasshopper, and you will be glad you sought them out."

The article goes on to note the presence of another Neil McArthur in The Green House Band, but neither it nor, as far as I can tell, the liner notes to ZigZag actually answer the question. Puzzling.

Dominick: First, Uncle Michael never said that it was from the 2004 edition. Second, when Uncle Michael said that it was from the 2004 edition, he was correct. Third, when Uncle Michael incorrectly said that it was from the 2004 edition, he was expressing non-actionable opinion.
