Listener comments!
	12:05pm Rich in Washington: How can I be in two places at once when I'm not anywhere at all?
	12:06pm Doug Schulkind: Thank you, Michael.
	12:08pm Webhamster Henry: Like the pronunciation of "Nashville"
	12:09pm Parq: Thinking the same thing, Henry -- "Naishville".
	12:09pm whattawino: Whew, I feared they pulled your clearance! This is a great day NOW! Yay UM!
	12:10pm Roberto: Greetings, Dinklings!
	12:11pm Dean: Well, Amazing Grace did come, but not for me. Fire alarm ushered us out of the building during that last of Doug's sets. What does this portend?
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Rich! Doug! Henry! Parq! Wino! Roberto!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	12:14pm Jeff Golick: Oh it's ON.

	12:16pm Doug Schulkind: Does this song translate to English as "I do not want Tofurkey" ?
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Si.
	12:21pm glenn: rootie poots. others.
	12:22pm Doug Schulkind: Comedian Harmonists make my heart swell. In a good way.
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: glenn!
	12:23pm Little Danny: Hey all
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: Danny!
	12:24pm Little Danny: Fascinating lost sounds here
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: It once was lost...
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Joe Meek cumbia.
	12:28pm Little Danny: Man I want the original "I Hear a New World" vinyl set so bad. Still sounds like future music
	12:30pm Doug Schulkind: Mmm, cake.
	12:30pm northguineahills: Lee Van Cleef makes my Friday!
	12:30pm northguineahills: Paul McCartney comes pre-clickied!
	12:30pm Dean: I watched an interview with Linda a couple weeks ago. She was lovely, just as Paul wrote.
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: NGH!
	12:36pm Listening Out There: Sorry to hear about computer problems, World Traveler. Having electricity is overrated...
	12:38pm northguineahills: Dance skinny girl, dance!
	12:39pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: L.O.T.! Bob!
	12:43pm Dean: This song always creeped me out as a kid.
	12:43pm Parq: Hah- I woke up this morning with "Cool Water" on my mind, and I always associate it with Uncle Michael.
	12:43pm Dean: But now I'm a man. I can handle it, pretty much.
	12:44pm Parq: What I never could figure out: is "Dan" a guy he's travelling with, or his horse?
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: Parq!
	12:45pm Webhamster Henry: I think Dan is the Horse!
	🛒 12:46pm Brian in UK: The Turtles sing etcetera on Eleanore.
	🛒 12:46pm Brian in UK: Ooops hello Uncle.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	12:52pm The Oscar: Afternoon all! For whatever reason they had us sing "Cool Water" in fourth grade. I always thought Dan was an odd name for a horse, but I did enjoy singing about a guy dying of thirst.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	12:56pm Webhamster Henry: Sparks sounding oddly like Togawa Jun.
	12:57pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinklings
	12:57pm The Oscar: WHOA that segue!
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	12:58pm Parq: Kitties.
	12:59pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:59pm Dean: These last two tracks, political commentary?
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	1:03pm coelacanth∅: so was that cool water the same cool water that Hank sang? (in which case i'm sorry i missed it, even though it must pale in comparison) ?
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: I don't know that there's any other Cool Water.
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: OK. I went for my walk and was hearing that awesome Osmonds track, which I woulda never guessed was them..
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: and I have that record. I obviously haven't listened to much of it.
	1:07pm Dean: Hank, same song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpsE4lShiIw
	1:08pm Rich in Washington: I think there's a slightly different version of Cool Water. My dad used to play some kind of Best of record by them often when I was a tadpole and I recall the version I remember as sounding just slightly different (cursed with a weird phonographic memory).
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: seems like a song title that would get around. i'd bet there's at least one other song named "cool water"
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Rich, I'm pretty sure the Sons recorded it several times.
	1:15pm coelacanth∅: Hank recorded it once, that i know of, but there's a version with guitar overdubs that sounds pretty different than the bare version.
	1:16pm Rich in Washington: I am sure you are right. I have this weird OCD-ish thing about versions of songs, which is often fouled by the fact that artists would often record different versions of their songs for different labels, etc. I get somewhat particular about a certain recording.
	1:21pm northguineahills: To dig, or not to dig, that is the Doug....
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: Rich, i can relate. even if i don't like a version, i'm interested to hear it. i will always (almost always) have a favorite though.
	1:26pm ndbob: I need to go - good to catch part of your show UM!
	1:26pm Rich in Washington: It's funny how that is more of a thing with music in the 40s/50s/early 60s but after that, it's somewhat rare-ish for an artist to record different versions of the same song.
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: See ya Bob!
	1:28pm doctorjazz: Been enjoying the show in the car (much better way to listen than at work, but usually don't have the luxury ). Shopping stop next!
	🛒 1:33pm dutchtheo: Tickling the strings, cure for after diner dip, aloha
	1:36pm Rich in Washington: OMG! A real Reuben! They're incredibly hard to find where I live.
	1:37pm Rich in Washington: What kind of dressing, UM?
	1:39pm Rich in Washington: I am particularly proud of my skillet steaks. It took me years of bland, grey steaks before I stumbled on how to do it right. I almost prefer them to my barbeque grill steaks..
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: mayo, a little ketchup, a little relish, a bit of horseradish.
	1:40pm northguineahills: I usually don't cook meat, but, I have yet to find decent corned beef. But, I rarely eat, I wouldn't want anything go to waste, but you gave me some good ideas.... /lately I've had insane, yet delicious culinary ideas late at night.....
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Nice! I don't think I've ever tried horseradish on a reuben before.
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: I've almost entirely transitioned to steaks in an iron skillet, preheated in the oven.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: I only see corned beef at supermarkets around here around St. Patty's day, and then, it doesn't look very good.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: I just recently read about that preheat method but I haven't tried it yet. Worth it?
	1:41pm doctorjazz: I have a memory of my mom making corned beef and tongue (nobody would eat the tongue after seeing it in its natural state
	1:42pm V Priceless: Hey Unc! Nice Strawbs cut!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: No wasted corned beef...the end that's not happily sliced becomes hash...red flannel hash.
	1:43pm northguineahills: I love tongue! As a kid in Japan, I would always order it at the local grill....
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: I used to eat tongue tacos at my favorite taco stand, but had an undercooked one and it grossed me out to no end and I also once read that beef tongue is one of those mad cow high risk meats, especially if undercooked - so now I can't eat them.
	1:44pm doctorjazz: Still can't eat tongue.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I've had tripe tacos and in menudo, but it's not my cup of tea. Also in pho. No pho king way.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: VP! Wondered if the Strawbs would draw you out. Way worth it, Rich...much better Maillard effect.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: The same taco stand has cabeza, beef brains, but I can't do it.
	1:47pm Doug Schulkind: Meh
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: Right?
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: New thing with steaks is marinating in shio koji. Google it.
	1:49pm Dean: Cabeza is not beef brains. It's the meat around the skull. Sesos are brains. I've had un taco con sesos at King Taco in South Central LA. Was yummy.
	1:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks Dean! I just assumed, given my rough Spanish.
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: Isn't that also what constitutes headcheese?
	1:51pm Dean: I think so, but given my rough Swiss, I don't know for sure.
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: my headcheese is full of holes.
	1:53pm Dean: headcheese=hovercraft; holes=eels
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: I teed that up.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: SHOOBY!
	1:56pm glenn: octopus tacos are the best.
	1:56pm Listening Out There: It's Shooby time. All is well...
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Octacos
	1:56pm The Oscar: Got up for a second, only to return to SHOOOOOOOBY!!!
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: Tacopus
	1:57pm Listening Out There: I think Irwin also put this on Songs in the Key of X....
	1:57pm Parq: Shooby was a compelling demonstration that "follow your dreams no matter what people say" isn't always good advice.
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: There was a somewhat expansive issue of the original Human Horn collection recently. I am sure Irwin was involved.
	1:58pm jmd: just on my way out to work and had to turn around and find out what the hell this song is (Shooby Taylor)! Terrific!!!
	1:58pm northguineahills: Shooby! -off to lunch in a bit, thanks UM!
	2:00pm Doug Schulkind: Wouldn't it be funny as hell if Shooby Taylor was in actuality Cecil Taylor pulling our legs. Oh God, please make it so.
	2:01pm Guido from Cologne: Zebra was correctly pronounced.
	2:04pm Guido from Cologne: ... a´nd Ventures' "New Testament" is surprisingly good.
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: @Doug: Shades of Darlene and Jonathan Edwards
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: jmd! Guido!
	2:07pm The Oscar: Digging this "Creepy Loners" set.
	2:11pm Dominick: mmmmmmmm
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Dominick!
	2:14pm Dominick: Ptooff!!!!!!!!!
	2:33pm The Oscar: Rutles! This album is such an overlooked gem.
	2:38pm Listening Out There: Snapping fingers here. Makes it tricky to type...
	2:39pm Webhamster Henry: Are you ready to Soft Rock?
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: New Rochelle, I can't hear you!
	2:41pm annie: damn, this is sooo nice..
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: annie!
	2:44pm Alex In Illinois: I've been to Dubuque! I like the Mississippi River museum.
	2:45pm annie: yeah, i had to run out on an errand, got back just in time ... !! yay
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Alex!
	🛒 2:47pm Brian in UK: Thanks Uncle. Good weekend everybody.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Likewise, Brian!
	2:50pm Doug Schulkind: Mott the applesauce.
	2:56pm annie: thanks UM!!!...
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: Show went down easy. Thanks, @UM.
	2:57pm Guido from Cologne: loved the show!
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: thanks everyone..see you next week.
	3:00pm Doug Schulkind: I like your show better with electricity.
	3:05pm Doug Schulkind: Thank you.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 17, 2018

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.

	1:08pm Rich in Washington: I think there's a slightly different version of Cool Water. My dad used to play some kind of Best of record by them often when I was a tadpole and I recall the version I remember as sounding just slightly different (cursed with a weird phonographic memory).
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: seems like a song title that would get around. i'd bet there's at least one other song named "cool water"
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Rich, I'm pretty sure the Sons recorded it several times.
	1:15pm coelacanth∅: Hank recorded it once, that i know of, but there's a version with guitar overdubs that sounds pretty different than the bare version.
	1:16pm Rich in Washington: I am sure you are right. I have this weird OCD-ish thing about versions of songs, which is often fouled by the fact that artists would often record different versions of their songs for different labels, etc. I get somewhat particular about a certain recording.
	1:21pm northguineahills: To dig, or not to dig, that is the Doug....
	1:23pm coelacanth∅: Rich, i can relate. even if i don't like a version, i'm interested to hear it. i will always (almost always) have a favorite though.
	1:26pm ndbob: I need to go - good to catch part of your show UM!
	1:26pm Rich in Washington: It's funny how that is more of a thing with music in the 40s/50s/early 60s but after that, it's somewhat rare-ish for an artist to record different versions of the same song.
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: See ya Bob!
	1:28pm doctorjazz: Been enjoying the show in the car (much better way to listen than at work, but usually don't have the luxury ). Shopping stop next!
	🛒 1:33pm dutchtheo: Tickling the strings, cure for after diner dip, aloha
	1:36pm Rich in Washington: OMG! A real Reuben! They're incredibly hard to find where I live.
	1:37pm Rich in Washington: What kind of dressing, UM?
	1:39pm Rich in Washington: I am particularly proud of my skillet steaks. It took me years of bland, grey steaks before I stumbled on how to do it right. I almost prefer them to my barbeque grill steaks..
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: mayo, a little ketchup, a little relish, a bit of horseradish.
	1:40pm northguineahills: I usually don't cook meat, but, I have yet to find decent corned beef. But, I rarely eat, I wouldn't want anything go to waste, but you gave me some good ideas.... /lately I've had insane, yet delicious culinary ideas late at night.....
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Nice! I don't think I've ever tried horseradish on a reuben before.
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: I've almost entirely transitioned to steaks in an iron skillet, preheated in the oven.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: I only see corned beef at supermarkets around here around St. Patty's day, and then, it doesn't look very good.
	1:41pm Rich in Washington: I just recently read about that preheat method but I haven't tried it yet. Worth it?
	1:41pm doctorjazz: I have a memory of my mom making corned beef and tongue (nobody would eat the tongue after seeing it in its natural state
	1:42pm V Priceless: Hey Unc! Nice Strawbs cut!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: No wasted corned beef...the end that's not happily sliced becomes hash...red flannel hash.
	1:43pm northguineahills: I love tongue! As a kid in Japan, I would always order it at the local grill....
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: I used to eat tongue tacos at my favorite taco stand, but had an undercooked one and it grossed me out to no end and I also once read that beef tongue is one of those mad cow high risk meats, especially if undercooked - so now I can't eat them.
	1:44pm doctorjazz: Still can't eat tongue.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I've had tripe tacos and in menudo, but it's not my cup of tea. Also in pho. No pho king way.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: VP! Wondered if the Strawbs would draw you out. Way worth it, Rich...much better Maillard effect.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: The same taco stand has cabeza, beef brains, but I can't do it.
	1:47pm Doug Schulkind: Meh
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: Right?
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: New thing with steaks is marinating in shio koji. Google it.
	1:49pm Dean: Cabeza is not beef brains. It's the meat around the skull. Sesos are brains. I've had un taco con sesos at King Taco in South Central LA. Was yummy.
	1:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks Dean! I just assumed, given my rough Spanish.
	1:51pm Rich in Washington: Isn't that also what constitutes headcheese?
	1:51pm Dean: I think so, but given my rough Swiss, I don't know for sure.
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: my headcheese is full of holes.
	1:53pm Dean: headcheese=hovercraft; holes=eels
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: I teed that up.
	1:55pm Rich in Washington: SHOOBY!
	1:56pm glenn: octopus tacos are the best.
	1:56pm Listening Out There: It's Shooby time. All is well...
	1:56pm Rich in Washington: Octacos
	1:56pm The Oscar: Got up for a second, only to return to SHOOOOOOOBY!!!
	1:57pm Rich in Washington: Tacopus
	1:57pm Listening Out There: I think Irwin also put this on Songs in the Key of X....
	1:57pm Parq: Shooby was a compelling demonstration that "follow your dreams no matter what people say" isn't always good advice.
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: There was a somewhat expansive issue of the original Human Horn collection recently. I am sure Irwin was involved.
	1:58pm jmd: just on my way out to work and had to turn around and find out what the hell this song is (Shooby Taylor)! Terrific!!!
	1:58pm northguineahills: Shooby! -off to lunch in a bit, thanks UM!
	2:00pm Doug Schulkind: Wouldn't it be funny as hell if Shooby Taylor was in actuality Cecil Taylor pulling our legs. Oh God, please make it so.
	2:01pm Guido from Cologne: Zebra was correctly pronounced.
	2:04pm Guido from Cologne: ... a´nd Ventures' "New Testament" is surprisingly good.
	2:04pm Rich in Washington: @Doug: Shades of Darlene and Jonathan Edwards
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: jmd! Guido!
	2:07pm The Oscar: Digging this "Creepy Loners" set.
	2:11pm Dominick: mmmmmmmm
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: Dominick!
	2:14pm Dominick: Ptooff!!!!!!!!!
	2:33pm The Oscar: Rutles! This album is such an overlooked gem.
	2:38pm Listening Out There: Snapping fingers here. Makes it tricky to type...
	2:39pm Webhamster Henry: Are you ready to Soft Rock?
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: New Rochelle, I can't hear you!
	2:41pm annie: damn, this is sooo nice..
