Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 13, 2017 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.

My wife just started working with a guy named Fernando...every time she takes or covers one of his classes, I start singing the ABBA song. Now she's mad at me cuz she can't talk to the guy without humming the song in her head. Love that song, man.

The next songwriters you should focus on are: Richard and Robert Sherman, Stephen Sondheim, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Holland/Dozier/Holland

I put chili pepper in most things I cook, thought I don't care for intense heat. It needs to be in balance.

Tabasco is American but it's made only 10 minutes away from New Iberia, so that counts as Spanish to me.

I like intense heat every now and while, if there also good flavor present. Not a fan capsaicin extracts, only natural pepper sauces.

I recall hearing a version of S.O.S. on WFMU several years ago, I believe it was from that Abba-salutely comp. I remember it having a really cool marching beat on the snare drum that knocked me out.
