	12:09pm dan: @Doug Someone I know shared a meme of Bernie Sanders in place of Nick Drake on the Bryter Layter album cover and it was retitled, "Brrrryter Layter".

	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Sinner! Wendy! Franco!
	12:17pm rw: Ha! TDK. Weird, huh?
	12:18pm Roberto: Crawling From The Wreckage brings back memories of early '80s rock radio.
	12:18pm wendy del formaggio: I’m doing laundry so I’m only chatting intermittently, but I’m here...and happy about it. Also, hands off Bernie. I will fight you. You will lose. And I will even wear mittens while we battle. :-D
	12:19pm chresti: Hi UM and dinks!
	12:19pm johnk77: https://www.trendsmap.com/twitter/tweet/1352246185986293762 answering my own question;>
	🛒 12:19pm Brian in UK: Uncle, an appropriate song.
	12:19pm Gerry from Miami: Will we ever get any more country greatness out of California's Central Valley? The air quality there has gotten so bad that no one will be able to sing. Throat cancer will run rampant! Oh, the humanity!
	12:20pm TDK60: Hi Brian in UK: Yes, I detect some hints in the setlist..
	🛒 12:20pm Brian in UK: Wendy, I got this for Christmas, very good social history and cheese teaser. www.theguardian.com...
	12:20pm Gerry from Miami: I think I remember Graham Parker and the Rumour doing this one as well
	12:21pm otto: AFTER THE STORM IS RIGHT.... got FEET of the white fluffy stuff up here in the NW Adirondacks... Hinky Dinkin' during shovel breaks. Hi, all.
	12:22pm dan: If I didn't have the tracklist, I would have sworn that was Bonnie Tyler singing.
	12:22pm Jeff Golick: Fri-yay!
	12:22pm wendy del formaggio: @Brian in UK: Nice! Any book that calls out the MMB is welcome on my shelves.
	12:23pm Gerry from Miami: Bonnie Tyler's voice was way more raspy. Like a female Rod Stewart.
	🛒 12:24pm listener 126464: Cheers Uncle Michael, everybody!
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! chresti! BiUK! Gerry! otto! Jeff! 126464!
	12:25pm Paul from Toronto: @Gerry from Miami You're right, Graham Parker from his album "Your Country" www.youtube.com...
	12:26pm Gerry from Miami: Post-Trumpian America! Lovin' it!
	🛒 12:26pm Brian in UK: Wendy it has got me interested in the territorial cheeses, Caerphilly, Red Leicester Double Gloucester & Cheshire, which in the Seventies were dire.
	12:27pm Stanley: The Average White Band from The Nearly All White Scotland
	12:27pm Guy in NL: Yeah! A.W.B.
	12:27pm johnk77: great set selecter graham parker composer terry williams drummer on the dave edmunds recently heard mikey desbarres talking smack about swan song records & others:>
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! Guy!
	12:27pm prudy: Hello all...got a work call at 12:30 damn...Stone Soul Picnic?
	12:27pm Stanley: Hi Uncle
	12:27pm davefromtoronto: afternoon ya'll! what are you snacking on today UM?
	12:27pm dougseidel: yes you are a very good dj!
	12:28pm johnk77: awb perhaps best live band ever to open for tommy tutone!
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: dave! doug!
	12:29pm Gerry from Miami: Where's the "soul" in that great Laura Nyro song? I kinda dug the 5th Dimension, but they bleached all the heart out of this one. Damn producers!
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: lol!
	12:35pm Cal Zone!: Swell opening set today!
	12:36pm davefromtoronto: sounds great from here.
	12:36pm Paul from Toronto: @davefromtoronto I agree
	12:37pm davefromtoronto: hey paul - where you located in t.o?
	12:37pm Paul from Toronto: Leslieville
	12:39pm davefromtoronto: i used to live around there. now upper scarborough. ever go to the duke of kent bar?
	12:39pm Pauly from Clifton: Afternoon, Uncle Michael, Crew, folks!
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Cal!
	12:40pm listener Rey: Hi UM. Like Dexter, I'm doin' alright too!
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Rey!
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Pauly!
	🛒 12:42pm Brian in UK: Oh Yes sing the Byrds.
	12:42pm Paul from Toronto: @davefromtoronto I grew up at Sheppard & Neilson. My local is The Gull in the Beaches. I used to go to The Duke about a decade ago with friends, great bar
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: sorry meant duke of york @queen and leslie
	12:43pm Dean: Yes singing decades ago about the dearth of hospital beds during pandemic
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	12:44pm doctorjazz: Hey Dinks!
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Doc! How are you doing?
	12:45pm Paul from Toronto: Ah, the Duke. I've lived here since the early 90's and I've went once, for the Tragically Hip's final show. The projected in on the house next door and the neighbourhood filled the patio
	12:46pm captain mike: Yes sure are awful!
	🛒 12:48pm Brian in UK: I saw Yes when this came out and Jon Hendricks came on stage and sang a scat number with Jon Anderson, oddly odd. I was there primarily to see the Who two weeks before they played Woodstock.
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: mike.
	12:48pm davefromtoronto: it was a sketchy dive bar when i used to go over 10 years ago. saturday karaoke with the regular freaks was a blast.
	🛒 12:49pm Brian in UK: Did David St Hubbins write this.
	12:50pm Paul from Toronto: it's gentrified a bit now (like the neighbourhood). Carole Pope plays there every halloween.
	12:50pm Hubig Pie: Who and Yes on the same bill? I sense an Abbott and Costello sketch about to happen
	12:50pm dan: @Captain Mike I'm a big Yes fan, but I didn't think that was one of their best songs. Incidentally, my Dad only saw Yes once in 1972, he didn't care for them, but enjoyed the opening act It's A Beautiful Day.
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinkles
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Hubig! Coel!
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: well, I liked it
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Hubig Pie, it was the National Jazz & Blues Festival. I know bizarre. Same weekend as Sharon Tate was killed, the things you remember.
	12:53pm Paul from Toronto: I'm not a huge Yes fan but I really liked that tune.
	12:54pm Roberto: This administration-not-being-insane situation is taking some getting used to. It's not a bad thing.
	12:54pm TDK60: Brian, I saw the friggin' Ooo about 3 nights before Woodstuck.
	12:54pm coelacanth∅: it's a byrds song, no?
	12:55pm captain mike: 70’s overblown prog rock comes dangerously close to self parody in retrospect
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: oui
	12:55pm Gerry from Miami: Audience was a super band that never made it through the muck of the music business. I remember buying their second LP, House on the Hill, and loving it.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Gerry, they earned their place with that album. I think it was last week that I played Jackdaw from it. Maybe the week before. Indian Summer is great too.
	12:56pm Roberto: Well that must have been confusing, what with Audience being on the stage. Did they sign off their shows with "thank you, you've been a lovely band?"
	12:57pm Hubig Pie: Brian in UK, was The Guess Who also on the bill? That would complete the whole Who's on first routine
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Merch Table was the name of my first band in...
	🛒 1:00pm Brian in UK: TDK60, they were very good.
	1:00pm dan: In an alternate world, Gross National Product would be synonymous with Three Dog Night and Blood Sweat and Tears as late 60s/early 70s rock royalty.
	1:00pm Roberto: Hypothetical band names in that vein: - The Roadies - The Refreshments - Security
	1:01pm Paul from Toronto: This voice brings me right back to the 80s
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I'm good for at least one shitty segue every Friday.
	1:03pm TDK60: Shropshire Brian, Good! Same here. They were in top form, astounding. They were on a bill with B.B. King, Jefferson Airplane. Top show.
	1:03pm Wendy del Formaggio: Now now, Uncle Michael. The proper response is to get up, brush off the dust, and say, "I meant to do that."
	🛒 1:03pm Brian in UK: You can tell Bob Mould from two postcodes away. Still enjoy Copper Blue.
	1:05pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks for the chuckle, and the shout-out. <3
	1:05pm TDK60: Was just listening to 'Copper Blue' and 'Workbook' the other day.
	1:05pm Gerry from Miami: There was a comedy troupe from LA called the Credibility Gap that did just an Abbott and Coatello-type skit, employing rock groups Yes, the Who and the Guess Who. Very funny album, too, called Woodschtick. Renowned Simpson's voiceover Harry Shearer and David L. Lander, Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley, were members of the group.
	1:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: @Gerry: Someone played that on WFMU recently, when David Lander passed away. I think it was Ira the K. It was a funny track.
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: you had a prog in your throat?
	1:08pm Wendy del Formaggio: Nope. Bed music is at an appropriate volume.
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: it's a worthy b-side to some other of Rex's catchphrases
	1:10pm Guy in NL: YO!
	1:12pm Paul from Toronto: Flip this little biscuit over
	1:13pm Paul from Toronto: a mere bag of shells
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: I'm afraid this is a long biscuit, Paul.
	1:14pm Guy in NL: No way, YO!
	1:14pm Power Papi: Never been a fan of the squeaky squawky jazz
	1:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: Mmm...biscuits. I wish I knew how to make biscuits. Baking intimidates me.
	1:15pm dan: Is this the Squeaky Sax Set?
	1:15pm barrett785: WooHoo Dinky Time!
	1:16pm davefromtoronto: it's the titticut follies horn quartet.
	1:16pm dan: @Dave You win the internet today.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Pat! Papi!
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: I DON'T GET DAVE'S REVERENCE.
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: Parker and McPhee both have discographies as long as your arm!! Both are over 80 too. Free improv is hit or miss. I'm liking a lot here. They are communicating with their horns. You have to really listen and listen hard!
	1:19pm davefromtoronto: you ever heard of the documentary called "titticut follies?
	🛒 1:19pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey UM!
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Phillippe! @Dave...nope.
	1:22pm dan: @UM Titicut Follies was a documentary made in the 1960s about a mental institution in Connecticut
	1:22pm Paul from Toronto: In my youth I was so adverse to Roxy Music I once left a girl because she had Avalon in her collection.
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: Paul...Paul.
	1:23pm davefromtoronto: check this when you get a chance. better than i can explain it. anyone here seen/heard of it? and yeah to what dan said... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titicut_Follies
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: thanks for the pointers/explanations
	1:23pm Paul from Toronto: Really digging this tune, though.
	1:25pm davefromtoronto: yeah - wouldn't recommend it though - literally a nightmare on film...
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Any Ningún Artista fans here?
	1:26pm dan: @dave Incidentally, I was watching another documentary by that filmmaker of Titicut Follies, Frederick Wiseman called Juvenile Court. Much better film in my opinion.
	1:27pm Gerry from Miami: Yeah, that Titicutt Follies doc was a cause celebre. A real-life "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," only way worse.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: That was with Harry Anderson, right? Michael J. Fox was such a little punk.
	1:27pm davefromtoronto: oh yeah that's on kanopy - i'll check it out.
	1:28pm dan: @dave I didn't need to pay for some service to see the film, someone uploaded it on Internet Archive.
	1:29pm Andres: Afternoon Uncle Michael and all! Been listening in to your show for the first time. Enjoying very much. Gracias!
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: De nada, Andres! Welcome.
	1:30pm dan: @dave Here's the link to that and other Wiseman films: https://archive.org/details/FrederickWisemanPublicHousingDiscTwo
	1:30pm davefromtoronto: dan do you have kanopy in the US? it's free streaming through the public library system.
	1:31pm Paul from Toronto: This album has so many hilarious covers. Rumble is great.
	1:31pm davefromtoronto: assuming you're living there...
	1:31pm dan: @dave Oh, I thought it was a streaming service like Netflix or Prime.
	1:32pm davefromtoronto: no you just need a library card. it's great, better than netflix imho
	1:33pm dan: @dave Anything is better than Netflix.
	1:34pm northguineahills: Almost missed my Hinks w/ my Dinks! (I actually have a friend we call him Hinx due to his last name).
	1:35pm dougseidel: Uncle Michael - you have such a groovy setup in that room - is that all for the radio show or do you do other stuff in there also?
	1:35pm dan: I'd go with Italian meatballs.
	1:35pm TDK60: I don't know the 3rd one but manicotti is swell; never had it w/crepe.
	1:36pm dougseidel: I vote for number 2 - sounds great.
	1:36pm northguineahills: Willisau is in Suisse. My partner strongly suggested Rock en Espanol. I've been working on my Korean. (at least I'm fluent in espanol). go w/ the lamb....
	1:36pm rw: I say go with choice #1. It sounds easiest. And I'm out. Thanks as always UM! Happy Friday all!
	1:36pm Sam: I'd go with the manicotti--special for a special day (strdy)
	1:36pm Paul from Toronto: Spaghetti and meatballs. The three meat kind, browned and slow-cooked in the sauce.
	🛒 1:37pm listener 126464: meatballs
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: NGH! SAM! Take care, rw!
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: doug, I listen to music down here sometimes when it's not even Friday!
	1:38pm Andres: One for pusghetti and meatballs! I found a recipe for giant meatballs at serious eats that my family goes nuts for.
	1:38pm Gerry from Miami: Michael, Willisau is a town in Switzerland that hosts an annual jazz festival. Never been, but I'm sure it's beautuful.
	1:38pm dougseidel: I vote against lamb. last time i dealt with lamb i felt like I was taking apart one of gods very complicated creations.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Andres, I may have that recipe printed out in my to-try stack.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: I'm making all three of those things over the next couple of weeks. I may go ahead and start with the meatballs. Feels like a groundswell.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the Willisau info.
	1:42pm Andres: UM: All my meatballs were dry and tough before that recipe. It keeps them deliciously moist! I use the same principles from the recipe for keeping a meatloaf moist as well.
	1:43pm davefromtoronto: spaghetti and meatballs is always a good idea. throw some garlic bread with cheese and a glass of red wine - or a coke with ice - and your all set.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: It's difficult to go wrong with Serious Eats. I'm a big fan of Daniel Gritzer's recipes. I wonder if it's one of his.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: I see the one that I printed out is his. www.seriouseats.com...
	1:48pm Hubig Pie: Meatball with spaghettis,- one giant gutbomb and seved atop several kinds of noodles
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: All you guys and gals are making me hungry!!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: I learned how to properly cook pasta in a way that a home cook can develop starchy pasta water from him. From him I also learned to make pasta al aglio e olio and by extension, how to properly finish pasta all the time.
	1:49pm Paul from Toronto: This is like the one I usually make, I also add pancetta. www.today.com...
	1:50pm Andres: UM: That’s the one I use. I skip the optional gelatin for simplicity. My daughter has requested this for her birthday dinnner so it’s got her vote as well!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I think I have some pancetta. If not, I'll use some jowl bacon.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: thanks for that link, Andres
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I mean Paul!
	1:50pm dougseidel: jowl bacon wow
	1:51pm Paul from Toronto: I make my own chicken bone broth, it's pure jelly
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: jowl bacon because I can't get guanciale for making carbonara.
	1:52pm Gerry from Miami: The one and only Hook! A true legend. "Hooker and Heat" was a very popular record!
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: I made matzoh ball soup yesterday. all my homemade stock goes there.
	1:53pm Uncle Michael: This is one of those "buffet plate" sets.
	1:55pm Paul from Toronto: I have a number of Matzoh Ball Sou recipes saved to try. Can't make up my mind whih is the best.
	1:55pm Paul from Toronto: p
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: I have one that I started with and tweaked over several years.
	1:57pm PMD: have I entered a dance hall?
	1:58pm coelacanth∅: Ozarks!
	1:58pm PMD: Oh, guess not! :-)
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: 4 eggs, 1/4 cup schmaltz, 1/4 cup seltzer. cup yehuda matzoh meal, 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp. fresh ground pepper, 1/4 tsp baking powder mix wet and dry separately, then together rest in fridge for 30 minutes make 12 balls, poach for an hour
	1:58pm northguineahills: The only good Jewish deli I've found in this state closed. So, no matzoh ball soup for me (until I get a kitchen).
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: PMD!
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: poach in well-salted water
	1:59pm Gerry from Miami: If I didn't know any better, Michael, I would think this show had been commandeered by Giada DeLaurentis. LOL!
	1:59pm johnk77: thanks for ozarks have not heard in about 35 years top shelf county rock at the time
	1:59pm johnk77: also country rock:>
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: Giada needs to EAT SOME FOOD.
	2:00pm Paul from Toronto: Thanks, UM. The one that I keep leaning towards is this one by Dan Auerbach arthurmag.com...
	2:01pm Gerry from Miami: This band was OMD before that Brit synth band stole their initials.
	2:01pm davefromtoronto: i feel like i'm getting fat just reading all this...
	2:02pm Wendy del Formaggio: Uncle Michael, I have written down your matzoh ball recipe. Thank you.
	2:04pm coelacanth∅: lotsa chooglers on that, the best ozarks album
	2:05pm davefromtoronto: speaking of getting to heaven...
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Good luck with it, Wendy!
	2:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thank you. I always have quarts of homemade chicken stock in the freezer, so I'm halfway there!
	2:06pm Gerry from Miami: Does anyone remember Mark Farner and Grand Funk name-dropping Freddy King in their hit single, "We're an American Band?"
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Booze and poker was his thing.
	🛒 2:09pm Alvy Singer: Freddie King was the opener for Grand Funk during the Phoenix tour. Hi there Uncle Michael.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	2:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: This must be the fox-trot portion of today's program.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: I'm a sucker for any version of Ochi Chernye.
	2:13pm Gerry from Miami: Grand Funk Railroad were pretty popular already, but I guess it took Todd Rundgren's production skills to send them into the platinum stratosphere with that 1970 LP, "We're an American Band."
	2:14pm Paul from Toronto: UM, are you pro- or anti- noodle in your matzoh ball soup
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Homegrown chiquitas in Omaha...
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Neither pro or con, Paul. I never saw a noodle in matzoh ball soup till I was in New York. Not a thing in the midwest.
	2:16pm Paul from Toronto: I never understood the point. But some recipes I've seen suggest adding them
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: I don't use them. They're just foreign to me. I've seen noodles AND kreplach in MBS...2nd Ave Deli in NYC.
	2:18pm Andres: Loving these shellac selections! Microphone to the gramophone cone to record or digital wizardry?
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: I didn't digitize any of these. Sourced from all over, Andres.
	2:19pm Pauly from Clifton: UM, thanks for the matzoh ball recipe! From my experience, it's either noodles or matzoh balls, not both.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: YW, Pauly.
	2:20pm Paul from Toronto: I agree.
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: Two out of two Pauls' agree.
	2:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: I think it's safe to say the 2nd Avenue Deli knows from matzoh ball soup.
	2:24pm dan: Loving this flute bed music.
	2:25pm Paul from Toronto: I think the first time I had matzoh ball soup was at Switzer's Deli here in Toronto back in the 80's. They don't exist any longer.
	🛒 2:26pm listener 126464: unmentioned sausage
	2:26pm davefromtoronto: put the sausage in the meatball. wait,that doesn't sound right...
	2:26pm Doug Schulkind: Our new administration believes in Mr. Science!
	2:27pm northguineahills: I prefer my Italian sausage w/ chili peppers (I've only done veggie sausage manicotti..)
	2:27pm dan: Mr. Science sounds like a sleazy, dime store version of Mr. Rogers.
	🛒 2:27pm Brian in UK: Mr Anthony 'Button Down Collar' Fauci.
	2:27pm Roberto: Experiments like "Let's Make the Water Turn Black?"
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: The sausage goes next to the manacotti. I wasn't clear.
	2:28pm northguineahills: Wait, that wasn't Bill Nye!
	2:29pm Gerry from Miami: UncleMike, have you ever heard Al Bowlly's English-language vocal version of Ochi Chyornye as Dark Eyes? Real nice. That song(and poem) have a tumultuous history, but the song is a keeper. I had a Russian instructor in college who loved the song and made us learn the lyrics in Russisn.
	2:29pm davefromtoronto: just as long as you hold the chicken between your thighs...
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: I'll seek out the Al Bowlly! Where's DutchTheo?
	🛒 2:31pm Brian in UK: Dusty
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: shitty segue #2!
	2:31pm northguineahills: It's weird when I watch foreign films, and they use American vernacular. (i've heard it from Latin America/Europe/East Asia).
	2:31pm Gerry from Miami: Kudos to you, Michael, for inserting those memorable lyrics from Grand Funk"s biggest smash.
	2:31pm dan: Young Dusty is great.
	2:31pm northguineahills: No Buffalos involved here...
	2:32pm Andres: Gotta go. Great show, Uncle Michael! Good luck with the meatballs! Bon appétit, all!
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: seared into my brain, Gerry. Take care, Andres. Don't be a stranger.
	2:34pm coelacanth∅: gotta hit the road Thanks UM!
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Coe ya Seel!
	2:35pm northguineahills: Is this fox from the British psyche folk scene? (as I haven't heard it before).
	2:36pm dan: Odessa, the Bee Gees' underrated masterpiece.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: couldn't say, ngh
	🛒 2:38pm Brian in UK: Uncle, great selections. ngh was that Mr Fox?
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: thanks, Brian
	2:40pm Gerry from Miami: Odessa, the fuzzy red felt-covered double album from those wonderful Brothers Gibb. Their last gasp at great pop before the disco deluge that made them so fabulously wealthy.
	2:40pm northguineahills: Never mind, I was thinking of Mr. Fox! (sounded similar)
	2:41pm northguineahills: Brian beat me to it (have one of their albums).
	🛒 2:41pm Franco Twinkie: Two chord marvel this.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Is that too many, Franco? They should have gone modal. D'oh! THIRD CHORD!
	🛒 2:43pm Franco Twinkie: THREE chords on the bridge, no?
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: positively baroque
	2:44pm northguineahills: If two chords are too many, try Glenn Branca...
	2:45pm davefromtoronto: is this the lunkhead portion of the show?
	2:46pm Paul from Toronto: Freakbeat from Begium
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: yep
	2:48pm Doug Schulkind: "I hear the teardrops trying to break through." Fantastic.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: Liz = Lynn's mom.
	2:50pm Paul from Toronto: Is this the Clover that backed Elvis Costello in his first album?
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Yes it is.
	2:52pm davefromtoronto: speaking of ec i couldn't believe i was hearing him do "3rd rate romance" on an early recording.
	2:53pm Gerry from Miami: Sorry if I offended any super Bee Gees fans with my comment about Odessa being their last stab at real 60s Britpop. Between that album and the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, they actually put out some records that still had that distinctive flavor of their earlier material. But I could stop with Odessa and be completely satisfied.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: Yep, it's on the Flip City stuff. I think it makes perfect sense.
	2:53pm chresti: Where is Lucas?
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: Upstairs, asleep.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: No worries, Gerry.
	2:54pm densely: This week I've been listening to the Neville Brothers' medley of Amazing Grace/Down By The Riverside/Amen. Curative.
	2:54pm Jeff Golick: Turning over "Hard to Handle"!
	2:55pm northguineahills: Didn't know the Violent Femmes were around in 2000. (saw them in 1994).
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: densely!
	🛒 2:56pm listener 126464: Than you Uncle Michael!
	🛒 2:56pm Franco Twinkie: I am rejoicing, truly.
	2:56pm dan: Let us rejoice in what's to come. Thanks UM.
	2:56pm Roberto: I think the Femmes are still around now.
	2:57pm davefromtoronto: awesome show as usual! thanks UM.
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks UM!
	2:57pm Gerry from Miami: Did it ever occur to listeners how Otis Redding always sounded like a much older man. He was only 24 when he died in that plane crash with the Bar-Kays.
	2:57pm Paul from Toronto: Thanks, as always UM. I will try that recipe. See ya soon, everyone
	🛒 2:57pm Franco Twinkie: You hit all the right spots today Michael, Thanks aplently.
	2:57pm northguineahills: abrazos y besos amigos! Gracias, UM!
	2:58pm Roberto: We have a shot now. Another four years of what we just had might have been the end of any and all hope.
	2:58pm otto: Snow croquet court groomed! Happy Friday ya'll!!!!! Thanks UM!
	2:59pm northguineahills: Chins up friends, we might make it!
	2:59pm Gerry from Miami: Great show, Michael! Will try to listen every Friday from now on. Didn't know what I was missing!
	3:00pm doctorjazz: Too busy to chat, but dig the sounds, thanks, UM!
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM!
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 22, 2021

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.

	12:17pm rw: Ha! TDK. Weird, huh?
	12:18pm Roberto: Crawling From The Wreckage brings back memories of early '80s rock radio.
	12:18pm wendy del formaggio: I’m doing laundry so I’m only chatting intermittently, but I’m here...and happy about it. Also, hands off Bernie. I will fight you. You will lose. And I will even wear mittens while we battle. :-D
	12:19pm chresti: Hi UM and dinks!
	12:19pm johnk77: https://www.trendsmap.com/twitter/tweet/1352246185986293762 answering my own question;>
	🛒 12:19pm Brian in UK: Uncle, an appropriate song.
	12:19pm Gerry from Miami: Will we ever get any more country greatness out of California's Central Valley? The air quality there has gotten so bad that no one will be able to sing. Throat cancer will run rampant! Oh, the humanity!
	12:20pm TDK60: Hi Brian in UK: Yes, I detect some hints in the setlist..
	🛒 12:20pm Brian in UK: Wendy, I got this for Christmas, very good social history and cheese teaser. www.theguardian.com...
	12:20pm Gerry from Miami: I think I remember Graham Parker and the Rumour doing this one as well
	12:21pm otto: AFTER THE STORM IS RIGHT.... got FEET of the white fluffy stuff up here in the NW Adirondacks... Hinky Dinkin' during shovel breaks. Hi, all.
	12:22pm dan: If I didn't have the tracklist, I would have sworn that was Bonnie Tyler singing.
	12:22pm Jeff Golick: Fri-yay!
	12:22pm wendy del formaggio: @Brian in UK: Nice! Any book that calls out the MMB is welcome on my shelves.
	12:23pm Gerry from Miami: Bonnie Tyler's voice was way more raspy. Like a female Rod Stewart.
	🛒 12:24pm listener 126464: Cheers Uncle Michael, everybody!
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! chresti! BiUK! Gerry! otto! Jeff! 126464!
	12:25pm Paul from Toronto: @Gerry from Miami You're right, Graham Parker from his album "Your Country" www.youtube.com...
	12:26pm Gerry from Miami: Post-Trumpian America! Lovin' it!
	🛒 12:26pm Brian in UK: Wendy it has got me interested in the territorial cheeses, Caerphilly, Red Leicester Double Gloucester & Cheshire, which in the Seventies were dire.
	12:27pm Stanley: The Average White Band from The Nearly All White Scotland
	12:27pm Guy in NL: Yeah! A.W.B.
	12:27pm johnk77: great set selecter graham parker composer terry williams drummer on the dave edmunds recently heard mikey desbarres talking smack about swan song records & others:>
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! Guy!
	12:27pm prudy: Hello all...got a work call at 12:30 damn...Stone Soul Picnic?
	12:27pm Stanley: Hi Uncle
	12:27pm davefromtoronto: afternoon ya'll! what are you snacking on today UM?
	12:27pm dougseidel: yes you are a very good dj!
	12:28pm johnk77: awb perhaps best live band ever to open for tommy tutone!
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: dave! doug!
	12:29pm Gerry from Miami: Where's the "soul" in that great Laura Nyro song? I kinda dug the 5th Dimension, but they bleached all the heart out of this one. Damn producers!
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: lol!
	12:35pm Cal Zone!: Swell opening set today!
	12:36pm davefromtoronto: sounds great from here.
	12:36pm Paul from Toronto: @davefromtoronto I agree
	12:37pm davefromtoronto: hey paul - where you located in t.o?
	12:37pm Paul from Toronto: Leslieville
	12:39pm davefromtoronto: i used to live around there. now upper scarborough. ever go to the duke of kent bar?
	12:39pm Pauly from Clifton: Afternoon, Uncle Michael, Crew, folks!
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Cal!
	12:40pm listener Rey: Hi UM. Like Dexter, I'm doin' alright too!
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Rey!
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Pauly!
	🛒 12:42pm Brian in UK: Oh Yes sing the Byrds.
	12:42pm Paul from Toronto: @davefromtoronto I grew up at Sheppard & Neilson. My local is The Gull in the Beaches. I used to go to The Duke about a decade ago with friends, great bar
	12:42pm davefromtoronto: sorry meant duke of york @queen and leslie
	12:43pm Dean: Yes singing decades ago about the dearth of hospital beds during pandemic
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	12:44pm doctorjazz: Hey Dinks!
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Doc! How are you doing?
	12:45pm Paul from Toronto: Ah, the Duke. I've lived here since the early 90's and I've went once, for the Tragically Hip's final show. The projected in on the house next door and the neighbourhood filled the patio
	12:46pm captain mike: Yes sure are awful!
	🛒 12:48pm Brian in UK: I saw Yes when this came out and Jon Hendricks came on stage and sang a scat number with Jon Anderson, oddly odd. I was there primarily to see the Who two weeks before they played Woodstock.
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: mike.
	12:48pm davefromtoronto: it was a sketchy dive bar when i used to go over 10 years ago. saturday karaoke with the regular freaks was a blast.
	🛒 12:49pm Brian in UK: Did David St Hubbins write this.
	12:50pm Paul from Toronto: it's gentrified a bit now (like the neighbourhood). Carole Pope plays there every halloween.
	12:50pm Hubig Pie: Who and Yes on the same bill? I sense an Abbott and Costello sketch about to happen
	12:50pm dan: @Captain Mike I'm a big Yes fan, but I didn't think that was one of their best songs. Incidentally, my Dad only saw Yes once in 1972, he didn't care for them, but enjoyed the opening act It's A Beautiful Day.
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinkles
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Hubig! Coel!
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: well, I liked it
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Hubig Pie, it was the National Jazz & Blues Festival. I know bizarre. Same weekend as Sharon Tate was killed, the things you remember.
	12:53pm Paul from Toronto: I'm not a huge Yes fan but I really liked that tune.
	12:54pm Roberto: This administration-not-being-insane situation is taking some getting used to. It's not a bad thing.
	12:54pm TDK60: Brian, I saw the friggin' Ooo about 3 nights before Woodstuck.
	12:54pm coelacanth∅: it's a byrds song, no?
	12:55pm captain mike: 70’s overblown prog rock comes dangerously close to self parody in retrospect
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: oui
	12:55pm Gerry from Miami: Audience was a super band that never made it through the muck of the music business. I remember buying their second LP, House on the Hill, and loving it.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Gerry, they earned their place with that album. I think it was last week that I played Jackdaw from it. Maybe the week before. Indian Summer is great too.
	12:56pm Roberto: Well that must have been confusing, what with Audience being on the stage. Did they sign off their shows with "thank you, you've been a lovely band?"
	12:57pm Hubig Pie: Brian in UK, was The Guess Who also on the bill? That would complete the whole Who's on first routine
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Merch Table was the name of my first band in...
	🛒 1:00pm Brian in UK: TDK60, they were very good.
	1:00pm dan: In an alternate world, Gross National Product would be synonymous with Three Dog Night and Blood Sweat and Tears as late 60s/early 70s rock royalty.
	1:00pm Roberto: Hypothetical band names in that vein: - The Roadies - The Refreshments - Security
	1:01pm Paul from Toronto: This voice brings me right back to the 80s
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: I'm good for at least one shitty segue every Friday.
	1:03pm TDK60: Shropshire Brian, Good! Same here. They were in top form, astounding. They were on a bill with B.B. King, Jefferson Airplane. Top show.
	1:03pm Wendy del Formaggio: Now now, Uncle Michael. The proper response is to get up, brush off the dust, and say, "I meant to do that."
	🛒 1:03pm Brian in UK: You can tell Bob Mould from two postcodes away. Still enjoy Copper Blue.
	1:05pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thanks for the chuckle, and the shout-out. <3
	1:05pm TDK60: Was just listening to 'Copper Blue' and 'Workbook' the other day.
	1:05pm Gerry from Miami: There was a comedy troupe from LA called the Credibility Gap that did just an Abbott and Coatello-type skit, employing rock groups Yes, the Who and the Guess Who. Very funny album, too, called Woodschtick. Renowned Simpson's voiceover Harry Shearer and David L. Lander, Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley, were members of the group.
	1:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: @Gerry: Someone played that on WFMU recently, when David Lander passed away. I think it was Ira the K. It was a funny track.
	1:07pm coelacanth∅: you had a prog in your throat?
	1:08pm Wendy del Formaggio: Nope. Bed music is at an appropriate volume.
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: it's a worthy b-side to some other of Rex's catchphrases
	1:10pm Guy in NL: YO!
	1:12pm Paul from Toronto: Flip this little biscuit over
	1:13pm Paul from Toronto: a mere bag of shells
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: I'm afraid this is a long biscuit, Paul.
	1:14pm Guy in NL: No way, YO!
	1:14pm Power Papi: Never been a fan of the squeaky squawky jazz
	1:15pm Wendy del Formaggio: Mmm...biscuits. I wish I knew how to make biscuits. Baking intimidates me.
	1:15pm dan: Is this the Squeaky Sax Set?
	1:15pm barrett785: WooHoo Dinky Time!
	1:16pm davefromtoronto: it's the titticut follies horn quartet.
	1:16pm dan: @Dave You win the internet today.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Pat! Papi!
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: I DON'T GET DAVE'S REVERENCE.
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: Parker and McPhee both have discographies as long as your arm!! Both are over 80 too. Free improv is hit or miss. I'm liking a lot here. They are communicating with their horns. You have to really listen and listen hard!
	1:19pm davefromtoronto: you ever heard of the documentary called "titticut follies?
	🛒 1:19pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey UM!
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Phillippe! @Dave...nope.
	1:22pm dan: @UM Titicut Follies was a documentary made in the 1960s about a mental institution in Connecticut
	1:22pm Paul from Toronto: In my youth I was so adverse to Roxy Music I once left a girl because she had Avalon in her collection.
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: Paul...Paul.
	1:23pm davefromtoronto: check this when you get a chance. better than i can explain it. anyone here seen/heard of it? and yeah to what dan said... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titicut_Follies
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: thanks for the pointers/explanations
	1:23pm Paul from Toronto: Really digging this tune, though.
	1:25pm davefromtoronto: yeah - wouldn't recommend it though - literally a nightmare on film...
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Any Ningún Artista fans here?
	1:26pm dan: @dave Incidentally, I was watching another documentary by that filmmaker of Titicut Follies, Frederick Wiseman called Juvenile Court. Much better film in my opinion.
	1:27pm Gerry from Miami: Yeah, that Titicutt Follies doc was a cause celebre. A real-life "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," only way worse.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: That was with Harry Anderson, right? Michael J. Fox was such a little punk.
	1:27pm davefromtoronto: oh yeah that's on kanopy - i'll check it out.
	1:28pm dan: @dave I didn't need to pay for some service to see the film, someone uploaded it on Internet Archive.
	1:29pm Andres: Afternoon Uncle Michael and all! Been listening in to your show for the first time. Enjoying very much. Gracias!
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: De nada, Andres! Welcome.
	1:30pm dan: @dave Here's the link to that and other Wiseman films: https://archive.org/details/FrederickWisemanPublicHousingDiscTwo
	1:30pm davefromtoronto: dan do you have kanopy in the US? it's free streaming through the public library system.
	1:31pm Paul from Toronto: This album has so many hilarious covers. Rumble is great.
	1:31pm davefromtoronto: assuming you're living there...
	1:31pm dan: @dave Oh, I thought it was a streaming service like Netflix or Prime.
	1:32pm davefromtoronto: no you just need a library card. it's great, better than netflix imho
	1:33pm dan: @dave Anything is better than Netflix.
	1:34pm northguineahills: Almost missed my Hinks w/ my Dinks! (I actually have a friend we call him Hinx due to his last name).
	1:35pm dougseidel: Uncle Michael - you have such a groovy setup in that room - is that all for the radio show or do you do other stuff in there also?
	1:35pm dan: I'd go with Italian meatballs.
	1:35pm TDK60: I don't know the 3rd one but manicotti is swell; never had it w/crepe.
	1:36pm dougseidel: I vote for number 2 - sounds great.
	1:36pm northguineahills: Willisau is in Suisse. My partner strongly suggested Rock en Espanol. I've been working on my Korean. (at least I'm fluent in espanol). go w/ the lamb....
	1:36pm rw: I say go with choice #1. It sounds easiest. And I'm out. Thanks as always UM! Happy Friday all!
	1:36pm Sam: I'd go with the manicotti--special for a special day (strdy)
	1:36pm Paul from Toronto: Spaghetti and meatballs. The three meat kind, browned and slow-cooked in the sauce.
	🛒 1:37pm listener 126464: meatballs
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: NGH! SAM! Take care, rw!
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: doug, I listen to music down here sometimes when it's not even Friday!
	1:38pm Andres: One for pusghetti and meatballs! I found a recipe for giant meatballs at serious eats that my family goes nuts for.
	1:38pm Gerry from Miami: Michael, Willisau is a town in Switzerland that hosts an annual jazz festival. Never been, but I'm sure it's beautuful.
	1:38pm dougseidel: I vote against lamb. last time i dealt with lamb i felt like I was taking apart one of gods very complicated creations.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Andres, I may have that recipe printed out in my to-try stack.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: I'm making all three of those things over the next couple of weeks. I may go ahead and start with the meatballs. Feels like a groundswell.
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the Willisau info.
	1:42pm Andres: UM: All my meatballs were dry and tough before that recipe. It keeps them deliciously moist! I use the same principles from the recipe for keeping a meatloaf moist as well.
	1:43pm davefromtoronto: spaghetti and meatballs is always a good idea. throw some garlic bread with cheese and a glass of red wine - or a coke with ice - and your all set.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: It's difficult to go wrong with Serious Eats. I'm a big fan of Daniel Gritzer's recipes. I wonder if it's one of his.
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: I see the one that I printed out is his. www.seriouseats.com...
	1:48pm Hubig Pie: Meatball with spaghettis,- one giant gutbomb and seved atop several kinds of noodles
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: All you guys and gals are making me hungry!!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: I learned how to properly cook pasta in a way that a home cook can develop starchy pasta water from him. From him I also learned to make pasta al aglio e olio and by extension, how to properly finish pasta all the time.
	1:49pm Paul from Toronto: This is like the one I usually make, I also add pancetta. www.today.com...
	1:50pm Andres: UM: That’s the one I use. I skip the optional gelatin for simplicity. My daughter has requested this for her birthday dinnner so it’s got her vote as well!
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I think I have some pancetta. If not, I'll use some jowl bacon.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: thanks for that link, Andres
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I mean Paul!
	1:50pm dougseidel: jowl bacon wow
	1:51pm Paul from Toronto: I make my own chicken bone broth, it's pure jelly
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: jowl bacon because I can't get guanciale for making carbonara.
	1:52pm Gerry from Miami: The one and only Hook! A true legend. "Hooker and Heat" was a very popular record!
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: I made matzoh ball soup yesterday. all my homemade stock goes there.
	1:53pm Uncle Michael: This is one of those "buffet plate" sets.
	1:55pm Paul from Toronto: I have a number of Matzoh Ball Sou recipes saved to try. Can't make up my mind whih is the best.
	1:55pm Paul from Toronto: p
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: I have one that I started with and tweaked over several years.
	1:57pm PMD: have I entered a dance hall?
	1:58pm coelacanth∅: Ozarks!
	1:58pm PMD: Oh, guess not! :-)
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: 4 eggs, 1/4 cup schmaltz, 1/4 cup seltzer. cup yehuda matzoh meal, 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp. fresh ground pepper, 1/4 tsp baking powder mix wet and dry separately, then together rest in fridge for 30 minutes make 12 balls, poach for an hour
	1:58pm northguineahills: The only good Jewish deli I've found in this state closed. So, no matzoh ball soup for me (until I get a kitchen).
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: PMD!
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: poach in well-salted water
	1:59pm Gerry from Miami: If I didn't know any better, Michael, I would think this show had been commandeered by Giada DeLaurentis. LOL!
	1:59pm johnk77: thanks for ozarks have not heard in about 35 years top shelf county rock at the time
	1:59pm johnk77: also country rock:>
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: Giada needs to EAT SOME FOOD.
	2:00pm Paul from Toronto: Thanks, UM. The one that I keep leaning towards is this one by Dan Auerbach arthurmag.com...
	2:01pm Gerry from Miami: This band was OMD before that Brit synth band stole their initials.
	2:01pm davefromtoronto: i feel like i'm getting fat just reading all this...
	2:02pm Wendy del Formaggio: Uncle Michael, I have written down your matzoh ball recipe. Thank you.
	2:04pm coelacanth∅: lotsa chooglers on that, the best ozarks album
	2:05pm davefromtoronto: speaking of getting to heaven...
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Good luck with it, Wendy!
	2:06pm Wendy del Formaggio: Thank you. I always have quarts of homemade chicken stock in the freezer, so I'm halfway there!
	2:06pm Gerry from Miami: Does anyone remember Mark Farner and Grand Funk name-dropping Freddy King in their hit single, "We're an American Band?"
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Booze and poker was his thing.
	🛒 2:09pm Alvy Singer: Freddie King was the opener for Grand Funk during the Phoenix tour. Hi there Uncle Michael.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Alvy!
	2:10pm Wendy del Formaggio: This must be the fox-trot portion of today's program.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: I'm a sucker for any version of Ochi Chernye.
	2:13pm Gerry from Miami: Grand Funk Railroad were pretty popular already, but I guess it took Todd Rundgren's production skills to send them into the platinum stratosphere with that 1970 LP, "We're an American Band."
	2:14pm Paul from Toronto: UM, are you pro- or anti- noodle in your matzoh ball soup
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Homegrown chiquitas in Omaha...
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Neither pro or con, Paul. I never saw a noodle in matzoh ball soup till I was in New York. Not a thing in the midwest.
	2:16pm Paul from Toronto: I never understood the point. But some recipes I've seen suggest adding them
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: I don't use them. They're just foreign to me. I've seen noodles AND kreplach in MBS...2nd Ave Deli in NYC.
	2:18pm Andres: Loving these shellac selections! Microphone to the gramophone cone to record or digital wizardry?
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: I didn't digitize any of these. Sourced from all over, Andres.
	2:19pm Pauly from Clifton: UM, thanks for the matzoh ball recipe! From my experience, it's either noodles or matzoh balls, not both.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: YW, Pauly.
	2:20pm Paul from Toronto: I agree.
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: Two out of two Pauls' agree.
	2:21pm Wendy del Formaggio: I think it's safe to say the 2nd Avenue Deli knows from matzoh ball soup.
	2:24pm dan: Loving this flute bed music.
	2:25pm Paul from Toronto: I think the first time I had matzoh ball soup was at Switzer's Deli here in Toronto back in the 80's. They don't exist any longer.
	🛒 2:26pm listener 126464: unmentioned sausage
	2:26pm davefromtoronto: put the sausage in the meatball. wait,that doesn't sound right...
	2:26pm Doug Schulkind: Our new administration believes in Mr. Science!
	2:27pm northguineahills: I prefer my Italian sausage w/ chili peppers (I've only done veggie sausage manicotti..)
	2:27pm dan: Mr. Science sounds like a sleazy, dime store version of Mr. Rogers.
	🛒 2:27pm Brian in UK: Mr Anthony 'Button Down Collar' Fauci.
	2:27pm Roberto: Experiments like "Let's Make the Water Turn Black?"
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: The sausage goes next to the manacotti. I wasn't clear.
	2:28pm northguineahills: Wait, that wasn't Bill Nye!
	2:29pm Gerry from Miami: UncleMike, have you ever heard Al Bowlly's English-language vocal version of Ochi Chyornye as Dark Eyes? Real nice. That song(and poem) have a tumultuous history, but the song is a keeper. I had a Russian instructor in college who loved the song and made us learn the lyrics in Russisn.
	2:29pm davefromtoronto: just as long as you hold the chicken between your thighs...
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: I'll seek out the Al Bowlly! Where's DutchTheo?
	🛒 2:31pm Brian in UK: Dusty
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: shitty segue #2!
	2:31pm northguineahills: It's weird when I watch foreign films, and they use American vernacular. (i've heard it from Latin America/Europe/East Asia).
	2:31pm Gerry from Miami: Kudos to you, Michael, for inserting those memorable lyrics from Grand Funk"s biggest smash.
	2:31pm dan: Young Dusty is great.
	2:31pm northguineahills: No Buffalos involved here...
	2:32pm Andres: Gotta go. Great show, Uncle Michael! Good luck with the meatballs! Bon appétit, all!
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: seared into my brain, Gerry. Take care, Andres. Don't be a stranger.
	2:34pm coelacanth∅: gotta hit the road Thanks UM!
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Coe ya Seel!
	2:35pm northguineahills: Is this fox from the British psyche folk scene? (as I haven't heard it before).
	2:36pm dan: Odessa, the Bee Gees' underrated masterpiece.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: couldn't say, ngh
	🛒 2:38pm Brian in UK: Uncle, great selections. ngh was that Mr Fox?
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: thanks, Brian
	2:40pm Gerry from Miami: Odessa, the fuzzy red felt-covered double album from those wonderful Brothers Gibb. Their last gasp at great pop before the disco deluge that made them so fabulously wealthy.
	2:40pm northguineahills: Never mind, I was thinking of Mr. Fox! (sounded similar)
	2:41pm northguineahills: Brian beat me to it (have one of their albums).
	🛒 2:41pm Franco Twinkie: Two chord marvel this.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Is that too many, Franco? They should have gone modal. D'oh! THIRD CHORD!
	🛒 2:43pm Franco Twinkie: THREE chords on the bridge, no?
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: positively baroque
	2:44pm northguineahills: If two chords are too many, try Glenn Branca...
	2:45pm davefromtoronto: is this the lunkhead portion of the show?
	2:46pm Paul from Toronto: Freakbeat from Begium
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: yep
	2:48pm Doug Schulkind: "I hear the teardrops trying to break through." Fantastic.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: Liz = Lynn's mom.
	2:50pm Paul from Toronto: Is this the Clover that backed Elvis Costello in his first album?
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: Yes it is.
	2:52pm davefromtoronto: speaking of ec i couldn't believe i was hearing him do "3rd rate romance" on an early recording.
	2:53pm Gerry from Miami: Sorry if I offended any super Bee Gees fans with my comment about Odessa being their last stab at real 60s Britpop. Between that album and the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, they actually put out some records that still had that distinctive flavor of their earlier material. But I could stop with Odessa and be completely satisfied.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: Yep, it's on the Flip City stuff. I think it makes perfect sense.
	2:53pm chresti: Where is Lucas?
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: Upstairs, asleep.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: No worries, Gerry.
	2:54pm densely: This week I've been listening to the Neville Brothers' medley of Amazing Grace/Down By The Riverside/Amen. Curative.
	2:54pm Jeff Golick: Turning over "Hard to Handle"!
	2:55pm northguineahills: Didn't know the Violent Femmes were around in 2000. (saw them in 1994).
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: densely!
	🛒 2:56pm listener 126464: Than you Uncle Michael!
	🛒 2:56pm Franco Twinkie: I am rejoicing, truly.
	2:56pm dan: Let us rejoice in what's to come. Thanks UM.
	2:56pm Roberto: I think the Femmes are still around now.
	2:57pm davefromtoronto: awesome show as usual! thanks UM.
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks UM!
	2:57pm Gerry from Miami: Did it ever occur to listeners how Otis Redding always sounded like a much older man. He was only 24 when he died in that plane crash with the Bar-Kays.
	2:57pm Paul from Toronto: Thanks, as always UM. I will try that recipe. See ya soon, everyone
	🛒 2:57pm Franco Twinkie: You hit all the right spots today Michael, Thanks aplently.
	2:57pm northguineahills: abrazos y besos amigos! Gracias, UM!
	2:58pm Roberto: We have a shot now. Another four years of what we just had might have been the end of any and all hope.
	2:58pm otto: Snow croquet court groomed! Happy Friday ya'll!!!!! Thanks UM!
	2:59pm northguineahills: Chins up friends, we might make it!
	2:59pm Gerry from Miami: Great show, Michael! Will try to listen every Friday from now on. Didn't know what I was missing!
	3:00pm doctorjazz: Too busy to chat, but dig the sounds, thanks, UM!
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM!
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
