	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Lane! VP!
	12:10pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	12:12pm Dean: The Marvin Pontiac was the banjo piece by Bach somebody asked about during Doug's show. It's from the cantata "Nicht Mit Mir Ficken."
	12:14pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Uncle Michael! Anyone for tenass?
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Henry!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Anyone else hearing a blown driver in their right headphone? Maybe it's just me.
	12:17pm Dean: Not hearing any distortion, but if you turn the 'phones around the right ear trouble will go away.
	12:19pm Webhamster Henry: We had Chicken Man on WDRC or WPOP in Hartford.
	12:25pm coelacanth∅: good morning Uncle M and Dinklers
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	12:33pm coelacanth∅: ...regarding weird sounding remasters, i generally try to get the least "remastered" that i can get, when it comes to pre-cd music. - "let it be...naked" is a weird exception, since it's "stripped down" but also remastered. ...i far and away prefer it; but i think "i've got a feeling" is one of the tracks that's not affected by the stripped-down-ness.
	12:34pm northguineahills: I think I'll toggle the image went I go home for lunch.
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Coel, LIBN is the most controversial Beatles release, I think.
	12:35pm coelacanth∅: haha, yes -toggle while you eat.
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: On or off, NGH?
	12:35pm northguineahills: well, better then while at work.
	12:35pm northguineahills: on
	12:38pm coelacanth∅: UM, most people i've mentioned that release to had never heard of it (somehow) but yeah i could see that. if they knew more of the history of how that album ended up having all that slop poured over it they might be more open to the naked version.
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: The Spector work on LIB is complicated...he poured slop on it...but he picked MUCH better takes than Glyn Johns had chosen for the unreleased "Get Back" album.
	12:43pm coelacanth∅: really? where might i hear the original choices? did i know they were out there??
	12:46pm Listener Scott: Hello UM! Often forget to say hello but rarely forget to listen.
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Even more swamped at work than usual, hi all! Likely won't appear much...Happy New Year!
	12:50pm Cecile: I don't usually like calypso that much, but this is great.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Scott! Nice to see your smiling avatar. Doc!
	12:53pm still b/p: Calypso is an anagram for cosplay...so there's that.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: I've never met Gerard Cosplay.
	12:55pm Cecile: the band sloan in their alteregos Feltworth made the joke that the blues is just like playing Happy Birthday all the time with different lyrics. I feel that way about calypso at times. I love the lyrics it seems like it's the same tune.
	12:57pm coelacanth∅: i'll have to seek out those boots. i don't doubt you,UM, but i didn't know they were around. i just hear "long and winding road" and "let it be" - 2 songs i could almost not stand to hear, despite acknowledging them being good songs - and not only sans slop but also, at least in the case of winding road, a much better vocal take; and i can listen to the whole album through now. (except i usually skip "get back") ...was it spector's choice to leave "don't let me down" off? (the naked version being a better take than the "hey jude" version)
	12:57pm northguineahills: When Peter Sellers isn't doing brownface in "The Party", he does Caribbean calypsos caricatures....
	12:58pm Roberto: Unc-eleh!
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Coel, I'm not the oracle. You'll get to decide what you think.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: obviously. i was just curious what your opinion is.
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: (but i've dropped it)
	1:08pm still b/p: Voo Vee Ah Bee OO-Chuck-A-Mao-Mao Foe-Dee-O-Dee Bo Bo Ska Diddle Daddle. If the next song completes the right incantation, what demon is summoned?
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I believe Spector had access to everything. Email me and I'll hook you up.
	1:14pm listener james from westwood: New Year's will be the usual Sunday night dinner w/ Dad, then heading home one town over and reading myself to sleep.
	1:15pm The Oscar: Slammed with work, but checking in! When I was a kid, my family had a New Years Day tradition of watching Robert Altman's Popeye. I have no idea how this came about.
	1:15pm northguineahills: huh, I used to get pastrami salmon and caviar for New Years as well, but I have no idea where to find that here.
	1:16pm listener james from westwood: New Year's Day will be a work day with, blessedly, no incoming email.
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: I had the Internet email me caviar this year. (ok, they used a box)
	1:20pm Sue P.: New Year's Day = Kielbasa + Sauerkraut. New Year's Eve is just another night.
	1:21pm Sem: Howdy, UM, and the hinkiest of the dinkiest.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Sue! Sem!
	1:22pm Sem: New Year's here is usually a lobster bob, followed by hi-speed run to Emergency.
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Allergic?
	1:23pm Sem: Claw/lip-nose-ear action.
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: Wait till they're dead to remove the rubber bands!
	1:25pm Sem: Dead? No amateurs around here, UM.
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: I'm so confused.
	1:27pm still b/p: Ya gotta show 'em who's boss! www.youtube.com...
	1:30pm mauri: crawman sem
	1:31pm northguineahills: You need to have an order of over $100 for Russ & Daughters for them to mail you their products. (They have the best smoked fish and caviar I've come across. Not sure if I could eat $100 worth.
	1:32pm Cecile: You can freeze smoked fish.
	1:33pm Sem: Haluatko jakaa hummerin kanssani, mauri?
	1:33pm northguineahills: Loving this JCS cover.
	1:34pm Cecile: Superstarrrrrrr
	1:36pm Jeff Golick: I turn 50 next month - considering a meal at Russ & Daughters restaurant to celebrate.
	1:37pm still b/p: There's a small sealed slab of smoked salmon in the fridge of unrecallable vintage. Long, multi-year storage. In 2018....out it goes.
	1:38pm dan: Good afternoon everyone.

	1:39pm Uncle Michael: Dan!
	1:40pm northguineahills: I want an accordion lesson! Thanks UM off to lunch
	1:41pm dan: Bob Elliot the father of Chris Elliot
	1:43pm Listener Robert: My favorite in this series was where the person's husband had been out of work for 40 years. He was a Zeppelin pilot. So they tried to console her with airline tickets.
	1:44pm The Oscar: I've always wanted this song to be a zombie-sequel to "He Stopped Loving Her Today," but I've never quite been able to make it work.
	1:44pm Uncle Michael: Robert! Oscar, I hear you.
	1:46pm still b/p: Willie reaches for some beltin'!
	1:50pm dan: For a second I thought this was Tom Jones.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: Stick around, Dan...
	1:58pm Listener Robert: 128k MP3 stream sound OK to others? Is it just my system straining?
	1:59pm Roberto: Gotta run, happy new year all!
	2:01pm Listener Robert: Restarting the player (Dragon) fixed it here.
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: whew! Bye Roberto...
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Jerry Granelli launched his career as the uncredited drummer on Vince Guarladi's "Charlie Brown's Christmas.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Guitar players on this are Robben Ford and Bill Frissell. Bass player is Jerry's son L. Anthony Granelli.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: J. Anthony...
	2:13pm dan: Tom Jones time.
	2:16pm dan: What a coincidence. I discovered this Badfinger song for the first time only a few weeks ago.
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: latter-day BF is very overlooked.
	2:18pm dan: Especially when Yes' Tony Kaye was their keyboardist.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 29, 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.

	12:57pm coelacanth∅: i'll have to seek out those boots. i don't doubt you,UM, but i didn't know they were around. i just hear "long and winding road" and "let it be" - 2 songs i could almost not stand to hear, despite acknowledging them being good songs - and not only sans slop but also, at least in the case of winding road, a much better vocal take; and i can listen to the whole album through now. (except i usually skip "get back") ...was it spector's choice to leave "don't let me down" off? (the naked version being a better take than the "hey jude" version)
	12:57pm northguineahills: When Peter Sellers isn't doing brownface in "The Party", he does Caribbean calypsos caricatures....
	12:58pm Roberto: Unc-eleh!
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Coel, I'm not the oracle. You'll get to decide what you think.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: obviously. i was just curious what your opinion is.
	1:08pm coelacanth∅: (but i've dropped it)
	1:08pm still b/p: Voo Vee Ah Bee OO-Chuck-A-Mao-Mao Foe-Dee-O-Dee Bo Bo Ska Diddle Daddle. If the next song completes the right incantation, what demon is summoned?
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I believe Spector had access to everything. Email me and I'll hook you up.
	1:14pm listener james from westwood: New Year's will be the usual Sunday night dinner w/ Dad, then heading home one town over and reading myself to sleep.
	1:15pm The Oscar: Slammed with work, but checking in! When I was a kid, my family had a New Years Day tradition of watching Robert Altman's Popeye. I have no idea how this came about.
	1:15pm northguineahills: huh, I used to get pastrami salmon and caviar for New Years as well, but I have no idea where to find that here.

	1:16pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: I had the Internet email me caviar this year. (ok, they used a box)
	1:20pm Sue P.: New Year's Day = Kielbasa + Sauerkraut. New Year's Eve is just another night.

	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Allergic?
	1:23pm Sem: Claw/lip-nose-ear action.
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: Wait till they're dead to remove the rubber bands!

	1:31pm northguineahills: You need to have an order of over $100 for Russ & Daughters for them to mail you their products. (They have the best smoked fish and caviar I've come across. Not sure if I could eat $100 worth.
	1:32pm Cecile: You can freeze smoked fish.

	1:44pm The Oscar: I've always wanted this song to be a zombie-sequel to "He Stopped Loving Her Today," but I've never quite been able to make it work.
