	12:33pm Uncle Michael: They're from near to KC and still live in the area...still tour.

	12:33pm Uncle Michael: And....Jeff!
	12:33pm doctorjazz: I think I still have the Tarkio Road LP in the racks somewhere, really good album.
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: We're doing the AM today,Danny!...and the FM.
	12:34pm doctorjazz: (Not the RACK!!)
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: case in point
	12:36pm northguineahills: From the other room, it sounded like Tokyo Rose.
	12:36pm Little Danny: So this is what Cymarron sounds like? This is almost cartoonishly 1971
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: NGH!
	12:37pm Stanley: I hear the call. 'phones in, app on. Shlater, friends
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: See ya, Stanley!
	12:41pm Artie Haywire: That's one sensitive outlaw.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: 1971...I blame the ferns.
	12:43pm listener jeff: 1971 - I know most everyone has heard it but if you haven't search "One toke over the Line Lawrence Welk" 1971. A Brewer and Shipley song too.
	12:44pm hyde: i'm reading a fried chicken bucket list for the south. fun fact: reading about fried chicken increases desire for fried chicken by about 5000%
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: It's fried chicken for the soul.
	12:48pm Little Danny: "Signs" was a big hit for them too, dood!
	12:50pm Scraps deSelby: Even better!
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Danny...thank you. I'm in my '71 Bubble!
	12:53pm 67tele: hi all
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Tele!
	12:55pm northguineahills: I'm only aware of chart toppers from the years '83-'92, when I used to listen top 40 radio. Outside of that, I'm usually clueless.
	🛒 12:55pm Brian in UK: This was on Bark?
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Whimper?
	12:56pm Scraps: "Signs" charted in 1971. ;-)
	12:57pm hyde: '71 was a bad year for Grace Slick
	12:57pm melinda: Grace Slick had such a great voice.
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Signs was a 1970 release, however.
	12:58pm Rich in Washington: I predict big things for these Lead Zeppelin lads.
	12:59pm burke: @Rich If they stick with it and put the work in.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: I wonder whatever happened to them.
	1:02pm Little Danny: The line "A big legged woman ain't got no soul" always bothered me, though I suppose he was only "told" that
	1:02pm Uncle Michael: He didn't know...he said so!
	1:03pm Dominick: Such a killer groove
	1:03pm Scraps: Rock doesn't care for fat women
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: The rhythm guitar, Dominick. amiright?
	1:04pm doctorjazz: Aww, missed Black Dog (gotta get some work done at some point), but nice to get back for Clean Up Woman, great tune!
	1:06pm melinda: I like Marty Robbins.
	1:07pm Jeff Golick: @Little Danny: I'm with you on that Zep line, though I don't think the singer believes it.
	🛒 1:08pm KevinfromBayRidge: Damnnnn! This stuff is very distracting when you're trying to do your taxes...Well, Fuck the 1040!
	1:09pm Scraps: Looooove this
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Stick it to the man, Kevin.
	🛒 1:10pm KevinfromBayRidge: Think the Scissor Sisters might have been inspired by this?
	1:16pm hyde: i was 8 in '71. don't remember much about radio. but that is my favorite design year for Topps baseball cards.
	1:17pm glenn: i think i might still have some topps gum from 1971.
	1:18pm Alex In Illinois: In 1971? I did not have access to pop music yet. Maybe records off of cereal boxes, but my folks did not listen to pop music. I did not know that there were other radio stations on transistor radios other than KMOX, and I our stereo was always tuned to KFUO, a classical station.
	🛒 1:18pm KevinfromBayRidge: I was already bemoaning the declination of freeform on the commercial dial ( WPLJ & WNEW). AOR was rearing it's ugly head.
	1:18pm sinner: Do you know the Bee Gee's I.O.I.O. 45? I bought it when it first came out (71?). It has this funky African drum intro.
	1:18pm Doug Schulkind: I may have the complete '71 Topps set. My peak baseball card buying years were '68-'73.
	1:20pm sinner: You got the '69 Joe Pepitone??
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: glenn! Kevin, I played I.O.I.O. on the show not long ago.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: I'm a sucker for '73 and '74 Topps. Have a soft spot for '76. Seventy-ones are beautiful, though, @hyde.
	1:20pm hyde: @Doug whoa, cool. i only have a handful of that year left. somewhere i have juan marichal, orlando cepeda and some bad red sox.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: Trade ya for a '64 Joe Shlabotnik, @sinner.
	1:20pm sinner: I think you and I are the only ones who bought that record.
	1:21pm hyde: @Jeff i actually do have a full set from '73. like that year too.
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: "bought"...that's cute.
	1:22pm sinner: @JG: How about the card MVP year for Zoilo Versalles?
	1:23pm Jeff Golick: * sigh * -- I have a lot of '77s, which I really dislike.
	1:23pm Jeff Golick: How many Enos Cabell cards does a boy need?
	1:23pm glenn: more importantly, how many more games will the cubs win than the chisox this year? 40?
	1:25pm glenn: not to, you know, fulminate discord amongst the deejays or anything.
	1:25pm Jeff Golick: @sinner: had to look him up! Zorro sounds sweet. Played on the Twins team with one of my favorite all-time names...Harmon Killebrew.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Great question, glenn. I'll say 36.
	1:26pm hyde: @Jeff to get the real flavor of that '77 set, you really need the Bake McBride card cdn-images-1.medium.com...*XWO2HTJyuLdOEuFp6nu6_w.jpeg
	1:27pm hyde: whoa that link looks ugly. try this tinyurl.com...
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: Ooof. Yup.
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: I always found the airbrushing (?) paint job (?) on this Rick Jones to be...subpar: goo.gl...
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: (Mariners first season, I think.)
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: My fiend Dan Epstein recently published an article about airbrshed cards. Can't look for it right now.
	1:33pm hyde: haha, wow. i don't remember that one. i have a bunch of those '74 (i think) cards where they say "washington", "national league" for the team that ultimately became the san diego padres.
	1:34pm frenchee: UnkMike, this is one hella trip down memory lane. I mean, duh, that's your jam, but whoa. Thanks.
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: frenchee! YW
	1:36pm Jeff Golick: (last card comment; sorry) I like the '74 TRADED cards, such as: goo.gl... -- just a notch above a "Wanted" poster. @UM: I will gladly take that article link when you have less going on...
	1:36pm glenn: didn't that washington team eventually become the [boo, hiss and boo some more] texas rangers?
	1:37pm burke: What about Karen Carpenter? I guess they moved her out from behind the kit.
	1:37pm glenn: i never had any rare earth records. i have lots of rare earth magnets. stronger than shit, they are.
	1:40pm hyde: @glenn i sort of botched the story. what happened was that the washington senators had moved to texas, and then there was a move to take the padres and sell them to a guy in washington d.c. so topps went ahead and printed cards with the washington imprimatur. but then ray kroc stepped in and kept the padres in s.d.
	1:41pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Guido!
	1:43pm glenn: ya know... it wouldn't be beyond the realm of possibility for two washington teams to win championships this year.
	1:43pm Jeff Golick: Go on...
	1:44pm glenn: although i give the capitals a much better chance than the nationals.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: Blackhawks, baby.
	1:45pm hyde: i love Dolly Parton so much
	1:46pm Jeff Golick: I'm just really glad the Islanders are not going to make the playoffs cuz their fans really muck up my evening commute.
	1:49pm glenn: i think the hawks are in for a battle this year. the west has some really good teams.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I know. I'll quickly turn the rest of my attention to baseball.
	1:50pm doctorjazz: I don't want ANY Brooklyn groups making any playoffs, ticked off they all arrived when I moved out of Brooklyn!
	1:51pm hyde: @doctorjazz i think you're safe with the Nets
	1:54pm glenn: and speaking of douchery of the highest order - www.thestar.com...
	1:54pm Dean: Something tells me we're not going to hear from one of '71's finest records, likely because it didn't spawn a 7", but probably other reasons, too. It's the LA Philharmonic's recording of Holst's The Planets, Zubin Mehta conducting..
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: It was close, Dean.
	1:56pm Dean: It was the thought of back-announcing "Uranus, The Magician" that decided the matter, I know.
	2:01pm 67tele: you're going to have to get drunk and run around the house singing "Black Dog" very loud - it wont scare away the varmint but at least it will know you're crazy and leave your toes alone
	2:01pm Uncle Michael: It's kind of a deal-breaker.
	2:02pm Uncle Michael: Good advice, Tele.
	2:02pm ronzoni: red simpson and his singing trucks
	2:04pm glenn: red's the best.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Ron!
	2:04pm ronzoni: michael!
	2:05pm Alex in Illinois: The Carolina Chocolate Drops do a cover of this one
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Alex! Is it good?
	2:09pm βrian: I would think any cover is better than Van's. [sorry, allergies]
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: allergic to Van?
	2:11pm Dean: Oh, yeah, Humble Pie! I'm awaiting the release of Cherry Red's first "Bootleg Series" installment, three disks!
	2:11pm βrian: Profoundly. I always assume everybody is. Except Van, I guess.
	2:12pm doctorjazz: Humble Pie, like this cover!
	2:12pm Marie: UM!!!! You are playing so many songs that I absolutely love. You are making my afternoon. Thanks!
	2:12pm Dean: https://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/official-bootleg-box-set-volume-1/
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: @Dean: Oooooh!
	2:12pm ronzoni: quite a different arrangement from ray charles
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Marie!
	2:14pm doctorjazz: And Creedence, this is fun! (not the most played Creedence these days)
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: quite so, Ron.
	2:17pm Jeff Golick: I kind of want to start a Van reclamation project.
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: I didn't know it was an issue!
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Van is worshipped my some.
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: Recent Greil Marcus on Van (et al): pitchfork.com...
	2:19pm doctorjazz: I'm really shook!
	2:19pm Dominick: I'm a Van man
	2:19pm glenn: you either love him or you hate him.
	2:20pm hyde: i'll confess that post-Them Van has always been a problem for me
	2:20pm glenn: or sometimes you love him and hate him.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: I feel like there is some sort of Van Exhaustion out there, missing the forest (much of his catalog) for the Brown-Eyed trees. Or maybe I'm just overly influenced by @βrian's commentary.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: This is some great, underplayed Bob rightere.
	2:21pm Dominick: Blow your nose. Nose you blow
	2:22pm ronzoni: topeka honey - ha!
	2:24pm Dean: Like the Dead, VM is hella prolific. He's bound to generate a spectrum of opinions, and naturally exhaustion will play among them. Although I grew up hearing him on FM radio, my favorite record of his is Into the Music. Thereafter I kinda lost interest.
	2:28pm doctorjazz: Same here, the early few albums really resonated, he got mystical, I got less involved.
	2:28pm johnk77: jesse ed davis on guitar on the dylan van morrison was a living rock god when i started in the entertainment industry in the mid-seventies among a range of singer-songwriter in california unusual angry shoe-gazer yet compelling live possibly better w/them
	2:28pm Dean: Howard Werth, one of the first artists to record on Dangerhouse Records, along with X and The Bags.
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: John!
	2:30pm glenn: isn't sweet city woman from '71?
	2:30pm frenchee: CAN YOU DIG IT?
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: Yes, glenn.
	2:33pm johnk77: i met alice bag thru merwin belin or someone at chinnichap the la punk bags?
	2:34pm βrian: What I see when I hear Van: vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net...
	2:35pm Dean: Indeed, @johnk77, the same. Pat Bag, the bass player, used to drop by the record store where I worked. Likewise, I'd drop by the department store cosmetics counter where she worked. Alice wrote and toured an autobiography a few years ago. I need to read it.
	2:36pm ronzoni: 1971 was a pretty good year
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: 'twas
	2:38pm ronzoni: did i miss the osmonds as a result of my tardiness?
	2:38pm 07032forLife: This show is just amazing....can I ask Mr. Freedman to make you the WFMU morning man? Pleeeze!!!!
	2:39pm glenn: oh, pat bag is patricia morrison. i didn't know that.
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Osmonds in April, Ron. Sure...ask Ken.
	2:39pm βrian: UM could give the Topeka weather and traffic reports in place of the NYC ones. I like that!
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: And thanks for the praise, 0703!
	2:41pm ronzoni: ken.... osmond. got it.
	2:41pm doctorjazz: It would be great, UM, but quite a commute...
	2:41pm 07032forLife: That's fine...nobody listens to FMU for traffic, weather and the Jersey City School Lunch Menu anyway. Keep up the great work, Uncle!
	2:41pm Dean: She's also Patricia Ronaine, at least when I knew her.
	2:42pm johnk77: more @unclemichael also not mornings
	2:43pm βrian: All DJs should wear hot pants when broadcasting.
	2:46pm doctorjazz: (have to say, the school lunch bit drives me bonkers...)
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: I do....more or less.
	🛒 2:48pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for a great (WayBack Machine for me) show, Unc. Guess how much tax crap I did?!
	2:48pm βrian: For real? School lunch?? I've never heard of such a thing on any radio station.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: None?
	2:49pm jmd: Great show!
	2:49pm johnk77: #tbt
	2:49pm βrian: I bet those are ochre-colored fine linen hot pants, too.
	2:49pm Dean: No big deal. Play a tune from 1927 and it'll average out.
	2:49pm doctorjazz: Lots of fun, UM, catch you next week!
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: jmd, thanks!
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: It's not often that Doug and UM play the same artist in back-to-back shows. It's cool when it happens and it's Marvin Gaye, though.
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: see ya Doc...thanks!
	2:51pm Little Danny: This and "Inner City Blues" never fail to send chills up my spine. Great show UM
	2:51pm glenn: also in the way back mode, alice bag's flickr. www.flickr.com...
	🛒 2:52pm KevinfromBayRidge: You got it, UM!
	2:52pm Jeff Golick: Double shot of Al, too!
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Danny.
	2:53pm johnk77: marvin gaye's death 33 years ago tomorrow great work selecter @UM
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: thank you, John
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: What say we go out with a bang today?
	2:55pm Jeff Golick: ETERNAL RIFFAGE.
	2:55pm hyde: amazing show! thanks UM!
	2:55pm ronzoni: thanks for a great hour!
	2:55pm βrian: Impeachment is the bang I'm looking for.
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hanging out, everyone!
	2:57pm glenn: hubcap diamond star haloes for all!
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: TY UM!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from March 31, 2017

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.

	12:33pm Uncle Michael: They're from near to KC and still live in the area...still tour.

	12:35pm Uncle Michael: case in point
	12:36pm northguineahills: From the other room, it sounded like Tokyo Rose.

	12:43pm listener jeff: 1971 - I know most everyone has heard it but if you haven't search "One toke over the Line Lawrence Welk" 1971. A Brewer and Shipley song too.
	12:44pm hyde: i'm reading a fried chicken bucket list for the south. fun fact: reading about fried chicken increases desire for fried chicken by about 5000%
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: It's fried chicken for the soul.

	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Danny...thank you. I'm in my '71 Bubble!
	12:53pm 67tele: hi all
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Tele!
	12:55pm northguineahills: I'm only aware of chart toppers from the years '83-'92, when I used to listen top 40 radio. Outside of that, I'm usually clueless.
	🛒 12:55pm Brian in UK: This was on Bark?
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Whimper?
	12:56pm Scraps: "Signs" charted in 1971. ;-)
	12:57pm hyde: '71 was a bad year for Grace Slick
	12:57pm melinda: Grace Slick had such a great voice.
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Signs was a 1970 release, however.
	12:58pm Rich in Washington: I predict big things for these Lead Zeppelin lads.
	12:59pm burke: @Rich If they stick with it and put the work in.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: I wonder whatever happened to them.
	1:02pm Little Danny: The line "A big legged woman ain't got no soul" always bothered me, though I suppose he was only "told" that

	1:07pm Jeff Golick: @Little Danny: I'm with you on that Zep line, though I don't think the singer believes it.
	🛒 1:08pm KevinfromBayRidge: Damnnnn! This stuff is very distracting when you're trying to do your taxes...Well, Fuck the 1040!
	1:09pm Scraps: Looooove this
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Stick it to the man, Kevin.
	🛒 1:10pm KevinfromBayRidge: Think the Scissor Sisters might have been inspired by this?
	1:16pm hyde: i was 8 in '71. don't remember much about radio. but that is my favorite design year for Topps baseball cards.
	1:17pm glenn: i think i might still have some topps gum from 1971.
	1:18pm Alex In Illinois: In 1971? I did not have access to pop music yet. Maybe records off of cereal boxes, but my folks did not listen to pop music. I did not know that there were other radio stations on transistor radios other than KMOX, and I our stereo was always tuned to KFUO, a classical station.
	🛒 1:18pm KevinfromBayRidge: I was already bemoaning the declination of freeform on the commercial dial ( WPLJ & WNEW). AOR was rearing it's ugly head.
	1:18pm sinner: Do you know the Bee Gee's I.O.I.O. 45? I bought it when it first came out (71?). It has this funky African drum intro.
	1:18pm Doug Schulkind: I may have the complete '71 Topps set. My peak baseball card buying years were '68-'73.
	1:20pm sinner: You got the '69 Joe Pepitone??
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: glenn! Kevin, I played I.O.I.O. on the show not long ago.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: I'm a sucker for '73 and '74 Topps. Have a soft spot for '76. Seventy-ones are beautiful, though, @hyde.
	1:20pm hyde: @Doug whoa, cool. i only have a handful of that year left. somewhere i have juan marichal, orlando cepeda and some bad red sox.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: Trade ya for a '64 Joe Shlabotnik, @sinner.
	1:20pm sinner: I think you and I are the only ones who bought that record.
	1:21pm hyde: @Jeff i actually do have a full set from '73. like that year too.
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: "bought"...that's cute.
	1:22pm sinner: @JG: How about the card MVP year for Zoilo Versalles?
	1:23pm Jeff Golick: * sigh * -- I have a lot of '77s, which I really dislike.
	1:23pm Jeff Golick: How many Enos Cabell cards does a boy need?
	1:23pm glenn: more importantly, how many more games will the cubs win than the chisox this year? 40?
	1:25pm glenn: not to, you know, fulminate discord amongst the deejays or anything.
	1:25pm Jeff Golick: @sinner: had to look him up! Zorro sounds sweet. Played on the Twins team with one of my favorite all-time names...Harmon Killebrew.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Great question, glenn. I'll say 36.
	1:26pm hyde: @Jeff to get the real flavor of that '77 set, you really need the Bake McBride card cdn-images-1.medium.com...*XWO2HTJyuLdOEuFp6nu6_w.jpeg
	1:27pm hyde: whoa that link looks ugly. try this tinyurl.com...
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: Ooof. Yup.
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: I always found the airbrushing (?) paint job (?) on this Rick Jones to be...subpar: goo.gl...
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: (Mariners first season, I think.)
	1:32pm Uncle Michael: My fiend Dan Epstein recently published an article about airbrshed cards. Can't look for it right now.
	1:33pm hyde: haha, wow. i don't remember that one. i have a bunch of those '74 (i think) cards where they say "washington", "national league" for the team that ultimately became the san diego padres.
	1:34pm frenchee: UnkMike, this is one hella trip down memory lane. I mean, duh, that's your jam, but whoa. Thanks.
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: frenchee! YW
	1:36pm Jeff Golick: (last card comment; sorry) I like the '74 TRADED cards, such as: goo.gl... -- just a notch above a "Wanted" poster. @UM: I will gladly take that article link when you have less going on...
	1:36pm glenn: didn't that washington team eventually become the [boo, hiss and boo some more] texas rangers?
	1:37pm burke: What about Karen Carpenter? I guess they moved her out from behind the kit.
	1:37pm glenn: i never had any rare earth records. i have lots of rare earth magnets. stronger than shit, they are.
	1:40pm hyde: @glenn i sort of botched the story. what happened was that the washington senators had moved to texas, and then there was a move to take the padres and sell them to a guy in washington d.c. so topps went ahead and printed cards with the washington imprimatur. but then ray kroc stepped in and kept the padres in s.d.
	1:41pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Guido!
	1:43pm glenn: ya know... it wouldn't be beyond the realm of possibility for two washington teams to win championships this year.
	1:43pm Jeff Golick: Go on...
	1:44pm glenn: although i give the capitals a much better chance than the nationals.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: Blackhawks, baby.
	1:45pm hyde: i love Dolly Parton so much
	1:46pm Jeff Golick: I'm just really glad the Islanders are not going to make the playoffs cuz their fans really muck up my evening commute.
	1:49pm glenn: i think the hawks are in for a battle this year. the west has some really good teams.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I know. I'll quickly turn the rest of my attention to baseball.
	1:50pm doctorjazz: I don't want ANY Brooklyn groups making any playoffs, ticked off they all arrived when I moved out of Brooklyn!
	1:51pm hyde: @doctorjazz i think you're safe with the Nets
	1:54pm glenn: and speaking of douchery of the highest order - www.thestar.com...
	1:54pm Dean: Something tells me we're not going to hear from one of '71's finest records, likely because it didn't spawn a 7", but probably other reasons, too. It's the LA Philharmonic's recording of Holst's The Planets, Zubin Mehta conducting..
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: It was close, Dean.
	1:56pm Dean: It was the thought of back-announcing "Uranus, The Magician" that decided the matter, I know.
	2:01pm 67tele: you're going to have to get drunk and run around the house singing "Black Dog" very loud - it wont scare away the varmint but at least it will know you're crazy and leave your toes alone
	2:01pm Uncle Michael: It's kind of a deal-breaker.
	2:02pm Uncle Michael: Good advice, Tele.
	2:02pm ronzoni: red simpson and his singing trucks
	2:04pm glenn: red's the best.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Ron!
	2:04pm ronzoni: michael!
	2:05pm Alex in Illinois: The Carolina Chocolate Drops do a cover of this one
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Alex! Is it good?
	2:09pm βrian: I would think any cover is better than Van's. [sorry, allergies]
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: allergic to Van?
	2:11pm Dean: Oh, yeah, Humble Pie! I'm awaiting the release of Cherry Red's first "Bootleg Series" installment, three disks!
	2:11pm βrian: Profoundly. I always assume everybody is. Except Van, I guess.
	2:12pm doctorjazz: Humble Pie, like this cover!
	2:12pm Marie: UM!!!! You are playing so many songs that I absolutely love. You are making my afternoon. Thanks!
	2:12pm Dean: https://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/official-bootleg-box-set-volume-1/
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: @Dean: Oooooh!
	2:12pm ronzoni: quite a different arrangement from ray charles
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Marie!
	2:14pm doctorjazz: And Creedence, this is fun! (not the most played Creedence these days)
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: quite so, Ron.
	2:17pm Jeff Golick: I kind of want to start a Van reclamation project.
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: I didn't know it was an issue!
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Van is worshipped my some.
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: Recent Greil Marcus on Van (et al): pitchfork.com...
	2:19pm doctorjazz: I'm really shook!
	2:19pm Dominick: I'm a Van man
	2:19pm glenn: you either love him or you hate him.
	2:20pm hyde: i'll confess that post-Them Van has always been a problem for me
	2:20pm glenn: or sometimes you love him and hate him.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: I feel like there is some sort of Van Exhaustion out there, missing the forest (much of his catalog) for the Brown-Eyed trees. Or maybe I'm just overly influenced by @βrian's commentary.
	2:21pm Jeff Golick: This is some great, underplayed Bob rightere.
	2:21pm Dominick: Blow your nose. Nose you blow
	2:22pm ronzoni: topeka honey - ha!
	2:24pm Dean: Like the Dead, VM is hella prolific. He's bound to generate a spectrum of opinions, and naturally exhaustion will play among them. Although I grew up hearing him on FM radio, my favorite record of his is Into the Music. Thereafter I kinda lost interest.
	2:28pm doctorjazz: Same here, the early few albums really resonated, he got mystical, I got less involved.
	2:28pm johnk77: jesse ed davis on guitar on the dylan van morrison was a living rock god when i started in the entertainment industry in the mid-seventies among a range of singer-songwriter in california unusual angry shoe-gazer yet compelling live possibly better w/them
	2:28pm Dean: Howard Werth, one of the first artists to record on Dangerhouse Records, along with X and The Bags.
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: John!
	2:30pm glenn: isn't sweet city woman from '71?
	2:30pm frenchee: CAN YOU DIG IT?
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: Yes, glenn.
	2:33pm johnk77: i met alice bag thru merwin belin or someone at chinnichap the la punk bags?
	2:34pm βrian: What I see when I hear Van: vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net...
	2:35pm Dean: Indeed, @johnk77, the same. Pat Bag, the bass player, used to drop by the record store where I worked. Likewise, I'd drop by the department store cosmetics counter where she worked. Alice wrote and toured an autobiography a few years ago. I need to read it.
	2:36pm ronzoni: 1971 was a pretty good year
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: 'twas
	2:38pm ronzoni: did i miss the osmonds as a result of my tardiness?
	2:38pm 07032forLife: This show is just amazing....can I ask Mr. Freedman to make you the WFMU morning man? Pleeeze!!!!
	2:39pm glenn: oh, pat bag is patricia morrison. i didn't know that.
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Osmonds in April, Ron. Sure...ask Ken.
	2:39pm βrian: UM could give the Topeka weather and traffic reports in place of the NYC ones. I like that!
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: And thanks for the praise, 0703!
	2:41pm ronzoni: ken.... osmond. got it.
	2:41pm doctorjazz: It would be great, UM, but quite a commute...
	2:41pm 07032forLife: That's fine...nobody listens to FMU for traffic, weather and the Jersey City School Lunch Menu anyway. Keep up the great work, Uncle!
	2:41pm Dean: She's also Patricia Ronaine, at least when I knew her.
	2:42pm johnk77: more @unclemichael also not mornings
	2:43pm βrian: All DJs should wear hot pants when broadcasting.
	2:46pm doctorjazz: (have to say, the school lunch bit drives me bonkers...)
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: I do....more or less.
	🛒 2:48pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for a great (WayBack Machine for me) show, Unc. Guess how much tax crap I did?!
	2:48pm βrian: For real? School lunch?? I've never heard of such a thing on any radio station.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: None?
	2:49pm jmd: Great show!
	2:49pm johnk77: #tbt
	2:49pm βrian: I bet those are ochre-colored fine linen hot pants, too.
	2:49pm Dean: No big deal. Play a tune from 1927 and it'll average out.
	2:49pm doctorjazz: Lots of fun, UM, catch you next week!
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: jmd, thanks!
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: It's not often that Doug and UM play the same artist in back-to-back shows. It's cool when it happens and it's Marvin Gaye, though.
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: see ya Doc...thanks!
	2:51pm Little Danny: This and "Inner City Blues" never fail to send chills up my spine. Great show UM
	2:51pm glenn: also in the way back mode, alice bag's flickr. www.flickr.com...
	🛒 2:52pm KevinfromBayRidge: You got it, UM!
