Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 8, 2021 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.

Does anyone know what group's vocals are being edited/manipulated in Bathtime in Clerkenwell by The Real Tuesday Weld? Sounds like early Mills Brothers, but heard something else recently that could be a candidate. Sure don't think the vocals were freshly created.

Hello Uncle Michael & hinky dinks
In 1959, Ace Records removed Smith's vocal track from the original recording of his song "Sea Cruise" and replaced it with a vocal track by singer Frankie Ford.[3] The song was Ford's first hit, selling over a million copies. Ace's decision to release the song with the Ford vocal and to not release Smith's original version meant that Smith was unable to fully benefit from his own work, and the move by Ace is considered by music historians to be an example of racial injustice in the 1950s pop-music industry. (Smith's original version of the song was eventually released.)

A friend I work with gave me a small sound system a few weeks ago because I knew it'd be useful for someone else. The CD he'd unknowingly left in it was Little Feat disc autographed by all of 'em. I'm gonna be rich....mwooo-ha HAHHH...RRRRRICH!

I have a Minnesota relative involved with a coop that originally installed phone service in farming areas. When the coop provided residential Internet access a few years back, they...installed fiber to residences. It was cheaper. Imagine...

Whoa! Just discovered you played Biff Rose earlier. I remember buying that album for 99 cents in a Thrifty(now CVS) Drug Store in LA in 1971. Got some Tim Hardin and Donovan discs as well, same price.

@Franco Twinkie. Yes, they always had great cut-outs. But my real discovery in those long-ago days was a now defunct department store known as White Front. They had thousands of these LPs with the holes drilled through the corner or the corner simply cut off. Got all my Bonzo Dog Band and Keith Emerson with the Nice records there(along with several hundred others before they went out of business).
