	11:37am Uncle Michael: might have enough to fill the time
	11:38am still b/p: If time, some fun mid-70s 10CC...but not the big Top 40 bits.
	11:38am mauri: evening. have some laphroig everyone!
	11:38am Uncle Michael: no mas!
	11:38am doctorjazz: Second "Uncle John's Band" (since all Live Dead is a bit impractical).
	🛒 11:39am Brian in UK: Hey mauri, no ice, ha ha.
	11:40am melinda: I didn't know Aztec Camera did Jump. Much better than the original.
	11:40am mauri: I drilled a hole today through the lakes ice. its 25cm thick. some guy was riding a bicycle there.
	11:40am Jeff Golick: The 10" package this came in was pretty memorable. I remember spending a lot of time with it.
	11:41am glenn: tmi, jeff.
	11:41am still b/p: I kept thinking someone would do a loud version of this as "Trump!" at a campaign event. Did they...?
	11:41am Mike East: I'll have some Laphroaig. You buyin', mauri? G'mornin' folks.
	11:42am Artie Haywire: I think I still have mine, though I haven't laid hands on it in a while.
	11:42am βrian: @doctorjazz: Resurrection has a stubborn rep for being impractical.
	11:42am Uncle Michael: I think we're solid gold till the top of the hour. Thanks everyone.
	11:42am Jeff Golick: Ha, @glenn. You can see it here! www.discogs.com...

	11:43am Uncle Michael: Next time, Jeff. I think I'll do an all-requests how soon.
	11:43am Mike East: 10x better than the original here. Thanks, UM.
	11:43am Listener Robert: Got any Yugoslav kolas?
	11:44am doctorjazz: Always loved this Jump (have it somewhere at home). Pretty ballsy, both the version and taking on a guitar solo...

	11:46am burke: Don't give up, Gord!
	11:46am Jeff: Yeah, I just saw you had the time covered by now. Hey, in future I dare ya to dig into Ani DiFranco'd Dilate album, too - Untouchable Face is basically the best bitter third wheel song I've every seen, Superhero is good, Amazing Grace is a worthy interpretation.
	11:47am Uncle Michael: I'll delve!
	11:47am glenn: get ry cooder to sing my eulogy.
	11:48am Rich in Washington: Got any Nick Lowe?
	11:48am annie: leaving in a few, ...i'll listen to the archives

	11:49am Jeff Golick: Yes, thank you.
	🛒 11:50am Brian in UK: Uncle, a hot chocolate and two buttered crumpets. Thanks.
	11:50am βrian: Golly, Sir Wonder sounds great.
	11:51am doctorjazz: Agree, haven't heard this Stevie in a while, terrific!
	11:51am Rich in Washington: ah. Just caught up on the comments from Doug's show. It all makes sense now. Sending good vibes your way, Doug.
	11:52am Jeff Golick: It's got the same percussion as "Do It Again," kinda.
	11:52am βrian: Born Stevland Hardaway Judkins in Saginaw, Michigan.
	11:52am Uncle Michael: kinda!
	11:52am paul b: All right if you're taking requests: Do you have "If they Hang You" by the Mekons, its off Honky Tonkin i believe. You know I was going to ask for some J Geils Band, but you played A song called Jump and I thought - perhaps that slots been filled.
	11:53am Uncle Michael: all slots filled, I'm afraid
	11:54am melinda: Hearing a song one requested is fun! Especially when it's the last slot.
	11:55am βrian: I just put black-eyed peas on the shopping list. Just because.
	11:55am still b/p: No room at the Request Inn, and you must hum in the stable.
	11:55am glenn: it's a pretty good version of billy joe, i gotta say.
	🛒 11:55am Brian in UK: Great observational song. A good song can take being covered.
	11:57am Mike East: I have a pretty distinct memory of the first time I heard Ode to Billy Joe...though I have no idea who's version it was.
	11:57am melinda: Thanks UM.
	11:57am Uncle Michael: it was a pleasure
	11:58am Jeff Golick: I'd said it before and I'll say it again: I love harmony.
	11:59am melinda: I saw the movie Ode to Billy Joe as a child and it was confusing and depressing. I remember hanging out in the parking lot before the movie started and asking my dad what 'ode' meant.
	11:59am Jeff Golick: (Not really out on a limb there, but still.)
	11:59am still b/p: I don't recall what season it actually was when Where Is The Love was charting highest, but it reminds me of fair days.
	12:00pm Webhamster Henry: This song is the cure for "The Christmas Song"
	12:01pm Jeff: Ol' Zaz - he was just never the same.
	12:01pm βrian: Bless this house of rooty-poots.
	12:01pm hyde: hiya
	12:03pm geezerette: UM!!! Other people!!!
	12:03pm glenn: truth. what's wrong with the rooty-poots?
	12:04pm Jeff: Now I want to write "Ode to Billy Joel."
	12:04pm 67tele: I have a request - play whatever you want! I trust you
	12:05pm doctorjazz: That was fun! Now, back to our regularly scheduled broadcast.
	12:05pm melinda: @Jeff: haha
	12:06pm 67tele: @Jeff: haha - Billy Joel was throwin his pianna off the whatchacallit bridge
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: PEOPLE!
	12:08pm Jeff Golick: Wut.
	12:08pm Alex In Illinois: . . . and the Governor's office had the traffic blocked on the George Washington Bridge
	12:08pm βrian: Is that Laphroaig still on offer?
	🛒 12:10pm Brian in UK: A drop of Jamesons is fine with me.
	12:10pm glenn: the fighting jamesons morphed into the non-violent bushmills.
	12:11pm βrian: "Whisky and pain both taste the same ..."
	12:11pm still b/p: The Tullamore Dewds were chill with everybody.
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: I'm a hell of an Irishman. Who knew?
	12:13pm listener jeff: I would love to be your request screener. Look at the image on Ken's latest playlist 4th from the bottom. Is that the double-penultimate image?
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: Here's a fave.
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: @Jeff: Billy Joel naturally drives himself off of the bridge.
	12:17pm Stanley: Yeah Baby!
	12:19pm geezerette: AFLAC
	12:20pm Artie Haywire: Cool duck of the in crowd?
	12:21pm geezerette: COLD duck :)
	12:23pm still b/p: Function follows freeform.
	12:23pm ndbob: Ode to Billy Joe was not exactly a good movie - but it did star Glynnis O'Connor who is a really good actress
	12:24pm ndbob: a little snow on the ground here
	12:24pm geezerette: I feel bad for insignificant snow.
	12:24pm βrian: Here's a song with another bridge reference: The Late John Garfield Blues
	12:26pm hyde: that song about snow reminded me about the "Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Championship" skit on SNL, which i haven't thought about for a loooooong time
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Brian: "You lose"
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Shooting Championship
	12:29pm βrian: ... but I'm still dancing.
	12:33pm geezerette: Hot Ham
	12:33pm mauri: hey cool music uncle!
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Mauri.
	12:36pm βrian: Footch Kapoot were from Wisconsin, I see.
	12:36pm glenn: oh dear.
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: Well, that's the only place the spell it that way.
	12:39pm geezerette: retroactive request for follow-up of "She Loves You" by Peter Sellers.
	12:39pm still b/p: Rooty Poot v. Footch Kapoot for all the loot...or marbles!
	12:40pm geezerette: no sympathy for devil; he's already pres. elect.
	12:41pm βrian: You mean, "She Luffs You."
	12:41pm Stevel: Without Jonathon Round would there be a Tenacious D?
	12:42pm geezerette: Ja Ja Ja,@ Brian.
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: The request line prevented my usual acknowledgement of each of your presences. My apologies. I'm thrilled to see you all.
	12:44pm glenn: is redcap 1972 slang for roofie?
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: dunno, maybe a mushroom?
	12:45pm βrian: These guys give me diaeresis.
	12:47pm βrian: Redcap: en.wikipedia.org...
	12:48pm glenn: you have a complex?
	12:50pm geezerette: uh oh. now he's WITH the devil...
	12:51pm Jeff: Jonathon Round's Sympathy for the Devil sounds like it's from the Rolling Stones stage musical.
	12:52pm Jeff: Has there been a show called "Mersey Boys"? Asking for a friend.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: Uh huh...
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for that link Brian. Yes, Glenn. I'm in therapy though.
	12:54pm frenchee: Lindsey is so silvery...that's a request I wouldn't've thought of! How about something doomy by The National?
	12:56pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Unc'n'all. Actually ,one of the guitarists from BOC ,Eric Bloom, lives down the street from my parents in Boynton Beach, where I am right now. So I just might ask him about that.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm afraid we're out of the request zone, frenchee. Do, Kevin!
	12:58pm frenchee: OK, sorry, I hadn't scrolled down completely. Great show, UM!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Thanks!
	12:59pm melinda: Great Bee Gees.
	12:59pm KevinfromBayRidge: Okay...But not in a stalking kinda way!
	1:01pm Stanley: J J Cale. Hahahah (said in a knowing but friendly way)
	1:04pm glenn: i never thought this could happen to me. the penthouse forum school of songwriting.
	1:06pm hyde: i love this Roger Nichols.
	1:06pm doctorjazz: No time to post, but I'm listening, enjoying the show (they make me work, goshdangit!)
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I appreciate the fingerless ears.
	1:16pm burke: TV just said coldest Chicago Bears game ever will be on Sunday.
	1:16pm hyde: yum, oxtail
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: I was in Chicago for what was, in 1985, the coldest day in the city's recorded history. -26 We went out...had tickets to see Connors and McEnroe play.
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: Seems a little cold for tennis, but i guess those guys are champs, so.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: There was a roof.
	1:27pm burke: Wait a minute...ice tennis...they could have that in the Winter Olympics! Like tennis, but with ice skates.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: And they could soak their balls in water and freeze them!
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: just got in to work. What did I miss?
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: all the best stuff
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: what a horrible commute. Roads solid ice. Not sure why I risked it.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: Don't risk going home. Sleep under your desk.
	1:32pm glenn: pffft. you don't know cold. The coldest CFL game was the 1991 Grey Cup. The temperature was -27 degrees Celsius (-17 Fahrenheit). ChaCha on!
	1:34pm doctorjazz: Great Boogie Woogie This Bradley.
	1:34pm doctorjazz: And some Bobby D.
	1:34pm glenn: by the way, did anybody see the revew of the trump grill in vanity fair? the mangled orange hellbeast is losing his mind. [again]
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: Yes. If only it were funny.
	1:35pm geezerette: Buck was great! Ya-hoo ,Buck!
	1:40pm geezerette: @UM, Nope. Ain't funny a-tall.
	1:41pm geezerette: ...but this is! :)
	1:41pm Webhamster Henry: Bob & Ray sound kind of young here.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: last night, was irritated by a huge stalk of celery that protruded through the crisper drawer, making closing the fridge door difficult. I sort of kicked the crisper drawer shut and it sheared off the tips of each stalk and they went flying. It was like fingers flying in one of those industrial safety splatter films. It was hilarious. My wife didn't find it as funny as I did.
	1:42pm glenn: they never do, rich. they never do.
	1:42pm Jeff Golick: Speaking of work (@Rich), it's my company's holiday lunch today, in the office. I have just received about 5 different emails informing us that there are dessert items in every department we got. I might not survive the afternoon.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Your wife is, of course, wrong.
	1:43pm Jeff Golick: (In other words, you can keep your celery.) AND: they never are, @UM; they never are.
	1:44pm Uncle Michael: This is a safe space where wives can be wrong. Who has the talking stick?
	1:47pm Jeff Golick: The talking stick is probably with the butter: img.papyrusonline.com...
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: That's my life. It used to be "Mom..."
	1:49pm βrian: "Mama, come here quick, bring me that talkin' stick"
	1:50pm Jeff Golick: I was given that card fairly recently.
	1:51pm βrian: Was the card-giver from Wisconsin, perchance?
	1:52pm Jeff Golick: Nope. Just from the Land of Disenchantment.
	1:54pm glenn: duchess. or lady bo?
	2:00pm melinda: Flying celery stalks sounds funny, as long as no one's eye was put out.
	2:06pm Rich in Washington: I think I didn't pick the pieces up where they probably rolled under the fridge. I gotta get on that or my wife will REALLY think that wasn't funny.
	2:09pm Jeff Golick: The mice will like it, though.
	2:11pm hyde: ducked out for a bit. impressed to see the flying celery discussion still going!
	2:11pm βrian: Yup!
	2:11pm Rich in Washington: whenever I hear this bass riff, it reminds me of this goofy new agey witchcraft radio show that ran in Portland OR in the 80s. This was the show's theme song. Some dude who called himself The Bear who would read from Wicca, witchcraft, Magick books and play stuff like Jade Warrior, Kitaro. He was universally despised by the other DJs and staff for some reason.
	🛒 2:13pm Brian in UK: Not heard 'In And Around Greg Lake' by The Wondermints yet in any tributes.
	2:16pm V Priceless: Hey UM!
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: VP, America's leading Chris Squire enthusiast!
	2:18pm Dean: Whenever Jon Anderson sings, "I feel lost in the city," I'm poised to hear Steve Perry, instead, "I feel lost in the ci-TAY."
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: I think Jon kinda does sing ci-TAY.
	2:22pm Dean: No. Too horrible a thought. When it comes to Yes, I'm in denial.
	2:24pm glenn: yes to me is a perfect example of being too instrumentally proficient, and too editorially deficient.
	2:26pm Dean: Really? What part of Tales from Topographic Oceans needs to be struck? How can they more efficiently have said, "Colored in pastures of chance Dancing leaves cast spells of challenge Amused but real in thought We fled from the sea whole" ???
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: good point
	2:29pm glenn: not lyrically. it's like they're trying to fit everything they know into 7 minutes.
	2:32pm Dean: It is hard to argue that they're not bombastic and pretentious, true. Even Beethoven knew how to kick back and riff now and then.
	🛒 2:44pm Brian in UK: Did Johnny Cash ever cover this song?
	2:44pm burke: Nice callback to earlier today! You can "do it again" again.
	2:45pm ndbob: interesting version here - never heard this
	2:45pm Jeff Golick: What @burke said.
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: dunno, Brian...not that I know of
	🛒 2:47pm Brian in UK: He could make any song his own. American Recordings 6? Got to rustle up an omelette. Thanks Uncle.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Brian. See you later...
	2:51pm V Priceless: I think Mike Rutherford has to be one of most over-looked Rock bass guitarists. So many of his Gabreil-era bass parts are nuts. Just sayin'......I'm more the school of Dennis Dunaway/JJ Burnell/Trevor Bolder, but much respect for Squire, who no doubt moved mountains for the electric rock bass, along with the great Ox, of course, and Jack Bruce.
	2:52pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:52pm V Priceless: Thanx, Uncle M!
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: and sold a lot of Rickenbachers!
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: thanks friends
	2:53pm geezerette: Fun,UM! Thanks always.
	2:53pm V Priceless: haha
	2:56pm Dean: Great insight, VP. I'm a huge Gabriel-era fan, but I've always subliminally figured Rutherford was struggling to keep up. I have no good reason for that sense. Another great JJ bassist: Avenel. He is missed.
	2:56pm Mike East: Haven't been commenting, but goddamn, thanks for the music, man. Really needed it today.
	2:59pm melinda: Thanks Uncle M
	2:59pm hyde: thanks Uncle Michael! great stuff.
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	9:50am Stanley: Great show, UM. Loved the request bit. I'm in India for the next three weeks, so may not be tuning in much but wishing you a happy time over the Christmas and New Year holiday.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 16, 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.

	11:36am Flash Strap: hey uncle!

	11:37am Uncle Michael: might have enough to fill the time
	11:38am still b/p: If time, some fun mid-70s 10CC...but not the big Top 40 bits.
	11:38am mauri: evening. have some laphroig everyone!
	11:38am Uncle Michael: no mas!
	11:38am doctorjazz: Second "Uncle John's Band" (since all Live Dead is a bit impractical).

	11:40am mauri: I drilled a hole today through the lakes ice. its 25cm thick. some guy was riding a bicycle there.
	11:40am Jeff Golick: The 10" package this came in was pretty memorable. I remember spending a lot of time with it.
	11:41am glenn: tmi, jeff.
	11:41am still b/p: I kept thinking someone would do a loud version of this as "Trump!" at a campaign event. Did they...?
	11:41am Mike East: I'll have some Laphroaig. You buyin', mauri? G'mornin' folks.
	11:42am Artie Haywire: I think I still have mine, though I haven't laid hands on it in a while.

	11:42am Jeff Golick: Ha, @glenn. You can see it here! www.discogs.com...

	11:43am Listener Robert: Got any Yugoslav kolas?

	11:46am Jeff: Yeah, I just saw you had the time covered by now. Hey, in future I dare ya to dig into Ani DiFranco'd Dilate album, too - Untouchable Face is basically the best bitter third wheel song I've every seen, Superhero is good, Amazing Grace is a worthy interpretation.
	11:47am Uncle Michael: I'll delve!
	11:47am glenn: get ry cooder to sing my eulogy.
	11:48am Rich in Washington: Got any Nick Lowe?

	🛒 11:50am Brian in UK: Uncle, a hot chocolate and two buttered crumpets. Thanks.

	11:51am doctorjazz: Agree, haven't heard this Stevie in a while, terrific!
	11:51am Rich in Washington: ah. Just caught up on the comments from Doug's show. It all makes sense now. Sending good vibes your way, Doug.
	11:52am Jeff Golick: It's got the same percussion as "Do It Again," kinda.
	11:52am βrian: Born Stevland Hardaway Judkins in Saginaw, Michigan.
	11:52am Uncle Michael: kinda!
	11:52am paul b: All right if you're taking requests: Do you have "If they Hang You" by the Mekons, its off Honky Tonkin i believe. You know I was going to ask for some J Geils Band, but you played A song called Jump and I thought - perhaps that slots been filled.
	11:53am Uncle Michael: all slots filled, I'm afraid
	11:54am melinda: Hearing a song one requested is fun! Especially when it's the last slot.
	11:55am βrian: I just put black-eyed peas on the shopping list. Just because.
	11:55am still b/p: No room at the Request Inn, and you must hum in the stable.
	11:55am glenn: it's a pretty good version of billy joe, i gotta say.
	🛒 11:55am Brian in UK: Great observational song. A good song can take being covered.
	11:57am Mike East: I have a pretty distinct memory of the first time I heard Ode to Billy Joe...though I have no idea who's version it was.
	11:57am melinda: Thanks UM.
	11:57am Uncle Michael: it was a pleasure
	11:58am Jeff Golick: I'd said it before and I'll say it again: I love harmony.
	11:59am melinda: I saw the movie Ode to Billy Joe as a child and it was confusing and depressing. I remember hanging out in the parking lot before the movie started and asking my dad what 'ode' meant.
	11:59am Jeff Golick: (Not really out on a limb there, but still.)
	11:59am still b/p: I don't recall what season it actually was when Where Is The Love was charting highest, but it reminds me of fair days.
	12:00pm Webhamster Henry: This song is the cure for "The Christmas Song"
	12:01pm Jeff: Ol' Zaz - he was just never the same.
	12:01pm βrian: Bless this house of rooty-poots.
	12:01pm hyde: hiya
	12:03pm geezerette: UM!!! Other people!!!
	12:03pm glenn: truth. what's wrong with the rooty-poots?
	12:04pm Jeff: Now I want to write "Ode to Billy Joel."
	12:04pm 67tele: I have a request - play whatever you want! I trust you
	12:05pm doctorjazz: That was fun! Now, back to our regularly scheduled broadcast.
	12:05pm melinda: @Jeff: haha
	12:06pm 67tele: @Jeff: haha - Billy Joel was throwin his pianna off the whatchacallit bridge
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: PEOPLE!
	12:08pm Jeff Golick: Wut.
	12:08pm Alex In Illinois: . . . and the Governor's office had the traffic blocked on the George Washington Bridge
	12:08pm βrian: Is that Laphroaig still on offer?
	🛒 12:10pm Brian in UK: A drop of Jamesons is fine with me.
	12:10pm glenn: the fighting jamesons morphed into the non-violent bushmills.
	12:11pm βrian: "Whisky and pain both taste the same ..."
	12:11pm still b/p: The Tullamore Dewds were chill with everybody.
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: I'm a hell of an Irishman. Who knew?
	12:13pm listener jeff: I would love to be your request screener. Look at the image on Ken's latest playlist 4th from the bottom. Is that the double-penultimate image?
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: Here's a fave.
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: @Jeff: Billy Joel naturally drives himself off of the bridge.
	12:17pm Stanley: Yeah Baby!
	12:19pm geezerette: AFLAC
	12:20pm Artie Haywire: Cool duck of the in crowd?
	12:21pm geezerette: COLD duck :)
	12:23pm still b/p: Function follows freeform.
	12:23pm ndbob: Ode to Billy Joe was not exactly a good movie - but it did star Glynnis O'Connor who is a really good actress
	12:24pm ndbob: a little snow on the ground here
	12:24pm geezerette: I feel bad for insignificant snow.
	12:24pm βrian: Here's a song with another bridge reference: The Late John Garfield Blues
	12:26pm hyde: that song about snow reminded me about the "Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Championship" skit on SNL, which i haven't thought about for a loooooong time
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Brian: "You lose"
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Shooting Championship
	12:29pm βrian: ... but I'm still dancing.
	12:33pm geezerette: Hot Ham
	12:33pm mauri: hey cool music uncle!
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Mauri.
	12:36pm βrian: Footch Kapoot were from Wisconsin, I see.
	12:36pm glenn: oh dear.
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: Well, that's the only place the spell it that way.
	12:39pm geezerette: retroactive request for follow-up of "She Loves You" by Peter Sellers.
	12:39pm still b/p: Rooty Poot v. Footch Kapoot for all the loot...or marbles!
	12:40pm geezerette: no sympathy for devil; he's already pres. elect.
	12:41pm βrian: You mean, "She Luffs You."
	12:41pm Stevel: Without Jonathon Round would there be a Tenacious D?
	12:42pm geezerette: Ja Ja Ja,@ Brian.
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: The request line prevented my usual acknowledgement of each of your presences. My apologies. I'm thrilled to see you all.
	12:44pm glenn: is redcap 1972 slang for roofie?
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: dunno, maybe a mushroom?
	12:45pm βrian: These guys give me diaeresis.
	12:47pm βrian: Redcap: en.wikipedia.org...
	12:48pm glenn: you have a complex?
	12:50pm geezerette: uh oh. now he's WITH the devil...
	12:51pm Jeff: Jonathon Round's Sympathy for the Devil sounds like it's from the Rolling Stones stage musical.
	12:52pm Jeff: Has there been a show called "Mersey Boys"? Asking for a friend.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: Uh huh...
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for that link Brian. Yes, Glenn. I'm in therapy though.
	12:54pm frenchee: Lindsey is so silvery...that's a request I wouldn't've thought of! How about something doomy by The National?
	12:56pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Unc'n'all. Actually ,one of the guitarists from BOC ,Eric Bloom, lives down the street from my parents in Boynton Beach, where I am right now. So I just might ask him about that.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm afraid we're out of the request zone, frenchee. Do, Kevin!
	12:58pm frenchee: OK, sorry, I hadn't scrolled down completely. Great show, UM!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Thanks!
	12:59pm melinda: Great Bee Gees.
	12:59pm KevinfromBayRidge: Okay...But not in a stalking kinda way!
	1:01pm Stanley: J J Cale. Hahahah (said in a knowing but friendly way)
	1:04pm glenn: i never thought this could happen to me. the penthouse forum school of songwriting.
	1:06pm hyde: i love this Roger Nichols.
	1:06pm doctorjazz: No time to post, but I'm listening, enjoying the show (they make me work, goshdangit!)
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I appreciate the fingerless ears.
	1:16pm burke: TV just said coldest Chicago Bears game ever will be on Sunday.
	1:16pm hyde: yum, oxtail
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: I was in Chicago for what was, in 1985, the coldest day in the city's recorded history. -26 We went out...had tickets to see Connors and McEnroe play.
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: Seems a little cold for tennis, but i guess those guys are champs, so.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: There was a roof.
	1:27pm burke: Wait a minute...ice tennis...they could have that in the Winter Olympics! Like tennis, but with ice skates.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: And they could soak their balls in water and freeze them!
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: just got in to work. What did I miss?
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: all the best stuff
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: what a horrible commute. Roads solid ice. Not sure why I risked it.
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: Don't risk going home. Sleep under your desk.
	1:32pm glenn: pffft. you don't know cold. The coldest CFL game was the 1991 Grey Cup. The temperature was -27 degrees Celsius (-17 Fahrenheit). ChaCha on!
	1:34pm doctorjazz: Great Boogie Woogie This Bradley.
	1:34pm doctorjazz: And some Bobby D.
	1:34pm glenn: by the way, did anybody see the revew of the trump grill in vanity fair? the mangled orange hellbeast is losing his mind. [again]
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: Yes. If only it were funny.
	1:35pm geezerette: Buck was great! Ya-hoo ,Buck!
	1:40pm geezerette: @UM, Nope. Ain't funny a-tall.
	1:41pm geezerette: ...but this is! :)
	1:41pm Webhamster Henry: Bob & Ray sound kind of young here.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: last night, was irritated by a huge stalk of celery that protruded through the crisper drawer, making closing the fridge door difficult. I sort of kicked the crisper drawer shut and it sheared off the tips of each stalk and they went flying. It was like fingers flying in one of those industrial safety splatter films. It was hilarious. My wife didn't find it as funny as I did.
	1:42pm glenn: they never do, rich. they never do.
	1:42pm Jeff Golick: Speaking of work (@Rich), it's my company's holiday lunch today, in the office. I have just received about 5 different emails informing us that there are dessert items in every department we got. I might not survive the afternoon.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Your wife is, of course, wrong.
	1:43pm Jeff Golick: (In other words, you can keep your celery.) AND: they never are, @UM; they never are.
	1:44pm Uncle Michael: This is a safe space where wives can be wrong. Who has the talking stick?
	1:47pm Jeff Golick: The talking stick is probably with the butter: img.papyrusonline.com...
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: That's my life. It used to be "Mom..."
	1:49pm βrian: "Mama, come here quick, bring me that talkin' stick"
	1:50pm Jeff Golick: I was given that card fairly recently.
	1:51pm βrian: Was the card-giver from Wisconsin, perchance?
	1:52pm Jeff Golick: Nope. Just from the Land of Disenchantment.
	1:54pm glenn: duchess. or lady bo?
	2:00pm melinda: Flying celery stalks sounds funny, as long as no one's eye was put out.
	2:06pm Rich in Washington: I think I didn't pick the pieces up where they probably rolled under the fridge. I gotta get on that or my wife will REALLY think that wasn't funny.
	2:09pm Jeff Golick: The mice will like it, though.
	2:11pm hyde: ducked out for a bit. impressed to see the flying celery discussion still going!
	2:11pm βrian: Yup!
	2:11pm Rich in Washington: whenever I hear this bass riff, it reminds me of this goofy new agey witchcraft radio show that ran in Portland OR in the 80s. This was the show's theme song. Some dude who called himself The Bear who would read from Wicca, witchcraft, Magick books and play stuff like Jade Warrior, Kitaro. He was universally despised by the other DJs and staff for some reason.
	🛒 2:13pm Brian in UK: Not heard 'In And Around Greg Lake' by The Wondermints yet in any tributes.
	2:16pm V Priceless: Hey UM!
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: VP, America's leading Chris Squire enthusiast!
	2:18pm Dean: Whenever Jon Anderson sings, "I feel lost in the city," I'm poised to hear Steve Perry, instead, "I feel lost in the ci-TAY."
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: I think Jon kinda does sing ci-TAY.
	2:22pm Dean: No. Too horrible a thought. When it comes to Yes, I'm in denial.
	2:24pm glenn: yes to me is a perfect example of being too instrumentally proficient, and too editorially deficient.
	2:26pm Dean: Really? What part of Tales from Topographic Oceans needs to be struck? How can they more efficiently have said, "Colored in pastures of chance Dancing leaves cast spells of challenge Amused but real in thought We fled from the sea whole" ???
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: good point
	2:29pm glenn: not lyrically. it's like they're trying to fit everything they know into 7 minutes.
	2:32pm Dean: It is hard to argue that they're not bombastic and pretentious, true. Even Beethoven knew how to kick back and riff now and then.
	🛒 2:44pm Brian in UK: Did Johnny Cash ever cover this song?
	2:44pm burke: Nice callback to earlier today! You can "do it again" again.
	2:45pm ndbob: interesting version here - never heard this
	2:45pm Jeff Golick: What @burke said.
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: dunno, Brian...not that I know of
	🛒 2:47pm Brian in UK: He could make any song his own. American Recordings 6? Got to rustle up an omelette. Thanks Uncle.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Brian. See you later...
	2:51pm V Priceless: I think Mike Rutherford has to be one of most over-looked Rock bass guitarists. So many of his Gabreil-era bass parts are nuts. Just sayin'......I'm more the school of Dennis Dunaway/JJ Burnell/Trevor Bolder, but much respect for Squire, who no doubt moved mountains for the electric rock bass, along with the great Ox, of course, and Jack Bruce.
	2:52pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:52pm V Priceless: Thanx, Uncle M!
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: and sold a lot of Rickenbachers!
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: thanks friends
	2:53pm geezerette: Fun,UM! Thanks always.
	2:53pm V Priceless: haha
	2:56pm Dean: Great insight, VP. I'm a huge Gabriel-era fan, but I've always subliminally figured Rutherford was struggling to keep up. I have no good reason for that sense. Another great JJ bassist: Avenel. He is missed.
	2:56pm Mike East: Haven't been commenting, but goddamn, thanks for the music, man. Really needed it today.
	2:59pm melinda: Thanks Uncle M
	2:59pm hyde: thanks Uncle Michael! great stuff.
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	9:50am Stanley: Great show, UM. Loved the request bit. I'm in India for the next three weeks, so may not be tuning in much but wishing you a happy time over the Christmas and New Year holiday.
