	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Artie!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: STOP OBSESSING!
	12:14pm Listener Gregory: It is interesting how every few years (like 3-5?) a gospel song would hit the pop charts and do very well. Then you wouldn't hear any on the radio (commercial pop, anyway) for years again. Or is that just my memory?
	12:15pm KimSorise: In 45 minutes, UM!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Gregory!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Cool, Kim!
	🛒 12:15pm Phillippe: Howdy

	12:21pm Marie: loverly (the Al Stewart). Hi UM, hi everybody!
	12:21pm dan: Great segue into Peter Sarstedt
	12:22pm Listener Gregory: Don't know Sarstedt... it sounded like Phil Ochs to me! Sorry!
	12:22pm asheville jon: This guy sounds like a creepy stalker
	12:23pm mauri: when you listen to your radioo you tune in to uncle michaeel

	12:24pm Marie: I love the story that these lyrics tell
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	12:25pm efd: oh I would have commented now if I hadn't already commented.
	12:25pm KimSorise: This is our jam, UM!
	12:26pm Marie: That last line about being able to look into her head...I dunno
	12:27pm KimSorise: Very true @dan. Never listened to him with that comparison.
	12:27pm Alex In Illinois: Hi Y'all. I enjoyed Doug's show too.
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Alex!
	12:28pm Artie: Hailing from Dylan Thomas' Welsh neighborhood, no doubt.
	12:28pm dan: Dynamite opening set UM.
	12:31pm doctorjazz: Where Do You Go To My Lovely was played quite a bit, was some sort of hit, I do remember it from back in the day.
	12:33pm dan: I sent my requests in from the get-go.
	12:34pm doctorjazz: How many reissues do you think Song For My Father has had? 98, according to Discogs... www.discogs.com...
	12:35pm doctorjazz: I have this Roches album (was a big fan), actually don't remember this track, typical
	12:37pm hyde: hello!
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: hyde!
	12:38pm KimSorise: Wow @docjazz! That's a series in itself.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: 125, Doc.
	12:40pm adamdoesit: doctorjazz, I don't remember it, either -- and the Roches are part of the musical texture of my childhood. I've been revisiting the McGarrigle Sisters, who I think of in parallel with the Roches. Those records have been full of surprises for me. Maybe I'll turn to Maggie, Terre, and Suzzy next.
	12:42pm dan: Rip Mike Nesmith
	12:42pm hyde: aw, the Nes
	12:43pm Listening Out There: Nesmith hated the hat...
	12:43pm hyde: i listened to a lot of Magnetic South this week
	12:43pm dan: "That's not even Mike Nesmith's real hat" AAAHHHHHHH
	12:44pm Webhamster Henry: The Roche/McGarrigle/Wainwright folk-a-matic universe is worth exploring!
	12:44pm βrian: Can Zoom add a watch cap to my image?
	12:45pm Webhamster Henry: And now, the two left thumb stylings of Jonathan & Darlene Edwards.
	12:46pm doctorjazz: @adamdoesit-have dug back a bit in the early Roches albums-I love playing Dear Mr Sellack for my actor/daughter, and The Hallelujah Chorus for my classy friends.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: LOT! Henry! Brian!
	12:47pm doctorjazz: So need to go back to Kate and Anna-there's a cover of The Bicycle Song my daughter likes to play for me, have to dig the original out.
	12:49pm johnk77: kenny rankin died in 2009 44 years before played guitar on bringing it all back home
	12:50pm Uncle Michael: john!
	12:51pm doctorjazz: Rankin was on Bringing it all...? Wow, didn't recall that!
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: wrong album cover alert!
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Didn't Alan Sherman do a version of this, Me'chaya? I keep hearing that as they sing...
	12:52pm KimSorise: I just heard a pop song the other day that samples Fresh Garbage. No idea what it was though
	12:53pm listener james from westwood: @Kim: Pink, I think.
	12:53pm johnk77: loudon wainwright 3 1 of the nicest/funniest/smartest people in the entertainment biz also violent femmes fan!
	12:54pm KimSorise: In 2003 apparently! HAHAHA always late to the party on "new" music
	12:55pm KimSorise: YESYESYES! Way to close out the school day UM! Thanks for the Dan <3
	🛒 12:55pm Alvy Singer: Hi Uncle Michael. Excellent Steely Dan deep cut.
	12:56pm dan: Nice Steely Dan vinyl sound
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Alvy! Happy to, Kim!
	1:00pm listener james from westwood: Who among us isn't whistling along to this TV classic!
	1:00pm dan: "Oh, Elizabeth, I think this is the one."
	1:00pm adamdoesit: mmm… chocolate upside-down cake.
	1:01pm βrian: I almost wish there was a prequel so we could all have met Elizabeth.
	🛒 1:01pm Alvy Singer: BB King and The Three Degrees both appeared on episodes of Sanford & Son.
	1:01pm listener james from westwood: Lamont [in a dashiki, in a back-to-his roots phase with a new name]: Just try it, Pop. Kalunda. Kalunda. Fred [walking away dismissively] Calendar!
	1:03pm Alex In Illinois: I heard that Quincy Jones wrote it too.
	1:04pm spodiodi: my father had an old truck that had seen some serious action called Sanford (my grandmother's idea)
	1:07pm Roberto: I'm here for Cat Lucas.
	1:08pm redkayak: Happy Friday all!
	1:08pm Marie: I went out with someone whose grandpa's last name was Sanford who then changed his first name to Sanford such that his full name became Sanford Sanford @).
	1:08pm dan: UM, you should name your next cat Stevens
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	1:09pm spodiodi: that's cool, Marie. my gram also called my father Sanford (usually to shame him when she thought his truck looked especially messy/filled with treasure)
	1:10pm johnk77: @dan winning internet so far today?;>
	1:10pm Roberto: Where dat boi at
	1:11pm Marie: @Spodiodi--I love that your grandma wanted the truck to be named Sanford. I had an old Schwinn that named Sammy
	1:11pm Marie: I named it Sammy, I mean
	1:11pm spodiodi: Roberto, on a unicycle somewhere. i hope.
	🛒 1:11pm Brian in UK: Uncle, hello. Does a deep cut need stitches? Butterfly or otherwise.
	1:12pm Marie: I love this song so much
	1:12pm northguineahills: Thanks, UM, I need to vamoose, cheers!
	1:12pm spodiodi: Sammy the bike! i love it. my vehicle names are usually just generic abbreviations (and Bessy)
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! ngh! take care.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: which song, Marie?
	🛒 1:13pm Phillippe: Damn, I had totally forgotten Todd was in a band...
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: A couple of bands!
	1:13pm Marie: Yeah, Sammy was a hand-me down from an older bro., red Schwinn
	1:13pm doctorjazz: Does anyone else hear Steely Dan in this?
	1:14pm Marie: @UM--love is the answer
	🛒 1:14pm Phillippe: I had a red Mazda B2000 that I named Go Big Red
	🛒 1:15pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: You're playing all my favorites!
	1:15pm spodiodi: i love that, Phillippe! lol
	1:15pm dan: Any Squeeze coming up? One of their songs would fit perfectly in this set.
	🛒 1:16pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: First XTC song I ever heard - asked in the cafe what they were playing. I love Andy's voice.
	1:17pm spodiodi: my current car's name is the same as Yogi's buddy and one of my first nicknames
	1:18pm Roberto: I think Generals and Majors was my first XTC song. It got a surprising amount of radio play.
	🛒 1:18pm Phillippe: Was XTC made up of flat earthers? "The world is biscuit shaped" doesn't scream big round ball to me...
	1:19pm Roberto: It depends on the application, Philippe. It's biscuit shaped when it's for him to feed his face.
	1:19pm Marie: Well, Philippe, maybe that problems with spatial perception, or their biscuits were globular..
	🛒 1:19pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love Generals and Majors too. Not too keen on Making Plans for Nigel.
	1:19pm Marie: that=they had
	1:20pm Roberto: Joe! Great artist, total idiot regarding his smoking-in-public stance.
	1:20pm dan: Joe Jackson is going back on tour next year.
	🛒 1:20pm Phillippe: @spodi So your car has a couple dents, or boo-boos?
	1:21pm Alex In Illinois: My first XTC song that i heard was "Making Plans for Nigel". Then, "Life Begins at the Hop"
	1:21pm Marie: I saw Joe J. live in the aughts and it was a fantastic show
	🛒 1:22pm Phillippe: I found Joe Jackson's live 2 CD set at a thrift store for a buck. Scarfed that baby up!
	1:22pm dan: @Marie Saw him in 2012 at the Town Hall in Manhattan when he was doing the Duke Ellington repertoire. Him and the band were tight. The absolute best in musicianship.
	1:22pm Marie: I've also had 2 spottings of Joe J. in NYC--once on Broadway, by NYU, and once at an old restaurant in Tribeca--the Ear Inn
	1:23pm sufferwords: yes
	1:23pm Roberto: DAMN dis set doe!
	1:23pm hyde: agree with Roberto
	1:24pm Marie: @dan--absolutely, right on
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: sufferwords! I last saw Joe play in about 2001 or so.
	1:24pm unpopularfred: well I'll be damned, some (early) Joe Jackson I don't know. (While I'm here, Joe did a great cover of King of the World on the Summer in the City album)
	1:24pm doctorjazz: Television!!! Very cool track! (Got to see the original, and the reformed band a few years back at the Solid Sounds festival.)
	1:24pm johnk77: does joe jackson still live on king street in manhattan?
	1:24pm sufferwords: remember when Television was considered punk rock-
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: fred! I didn't know that.
	1:25pm dan: @Marie When they did "Is She Really Going Out With Him", the bass player (not Graham Maby) did the riff on a tuba, Joe was on accordion and the other band members played assorted non-rock instruments
	1:25pm Marie: So many bands that are considered punk were just making really good rock and roll, I find
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Unreleased "Look Sharp" track, Fred...till that promo comp, anyway.
	1:26pm Roberto: Joe recently remarked he was considering leaving New York in protest of the anit-smoking regulations, hence my comment regarding his idiocy.
	1:26pm doctorjazz: Television was always a bad fit for for punk rock (?dueling guitar solos...?)
	1:26pm Marie: @dan--wow, impressive, sounds great
	1:26pm johnk77: yes joe has been pro-cigarette smoking since at least the 80s
	1:27pm listener james from westwood: Squeeze!!
	1:27pm dan: Thanks for the Squeeze UM
	1:28pm doctorjazz: Fabulous set, UM! Love this Squeeze!
	1:28pm dan: @Marie Here's the actual performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6pLdnkcsmA
	1:28pm Stanley: @Marie - punk wasn't so much a type of music, as a time in musical history. And a big hello to Uncle Michael. Happy to be able to tune in.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: stanley!
	1:30pm Roberto: Joe can shove his cigs you-know-where.
	1:30pm doctorjazz: I'd agree with Stanley, it wasn't so much a musical style (bit, did it harden into one), but an attitude, coupled with sneering vocals.
	1:30pm Stanley: Hi Uncle. Loving these seventies 'hits'.
	1:30pm Roberto: I would use the Brit slang for cigs but some of y'all might find it offensive.
	1:30pm Marie: @Stanley--wow, interesting, I never heard that idea....
	1:31pm Roberto: Try to, not try and.
	1:32pm Roberto: Are we trying and have a good time? I tried and have a good time. Try not and have a good time. Yeah. No.
	1:33pm Marie: @dan--wow, I'll check that link out, thanks!
	1:33pm Roberto: Sorry, that one really bugs me. Almost as much as people smoking anywhere near me.
	1:34pm Roberto: I have no friends. But my cats really love me!
	1:34pm Stanley: @Marie - if you look at the Stiff Records catalogue, you'll see that in the main part it's just good ol' rock n roll (The Damned being the exception), with a gnarly attitude, as Dr Jazz said.
	1:35pm Roberto: You really are taking no prisoners today, UM!
	1:35pm Stanley: Joe Jackson should do a duet with Joni Mitchell
	1:36pm Marie: @Stanley, yeah, hm, I know offhand that Still Little Fingers was on that label and they fit right into what ur saying
	1:36pm Pedro in Arlington: Dandy show today, Uncle Michael. A pleasure.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: Roberto, you didn't hear my comma?
	1:37pm Roberto: Oh shiz. Sorry, UM. The comma makes it correct.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: Pedro!
	1:37pm Marie: Gosh, I make typos all over the place--Still=Stiff, above, and now I am doubting if they are in fact on Stiff Records. Nevermind. @)
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Pedro!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: NSTAGP
	1:41pm Roberto: Uncle, Uncle!
	1:41pm hyde: haha, the second concert i ever went to was Yes (in the round! anyone remember that gimmick?)
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: In don't take prisoners, Roberto. Wait for the Red Cross.
	1:42pm Roberto: This sure has been a great couple of sets to wait for Lucas to.
	1:42pm spodiodi: GTAV in the heezy!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Lucas is sleeping on the bed, if I know Lucas.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: GTAV?
	1:43pm Marie: @hyde--yes, I saw Prince live, in the round, back in the 90s and it was, not surprisingly, truly awesome. Sometimes it really makes sense in terms of the space
	1:43pm dan: I wish the surviving core members of Yes: Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Steve Howe, Alan White can reunite for one last tour. Tony Levin should do bass as he did with AWBH
	1:44pm hyde: @Marie wow, that sounds better than seeing Yes!
	1:46pm Marie: I don't know about that but Prince believed in giving the audience their money's worth--unlike a lot of bands. He was an amazing performer (as were his cohorts @) )
	1:46pm dan: I've seen plenty of groups in the round at Westbury Music Fair like Ringo Starr, The Moody Blues, Steve Winwood, to name a few.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: this Rick bass sounds SO great...never gets old
	1:48pm spodiodi: UM, Grand Theft Auto V (video game -- lots of great songs like this one on it's radio stations.) this one inspired me to maek a race course in the editor. after that, the publisher created a similar race.
	1:49pm johnk77: the sound of a clavinet?
	1:49pm Stanley: Stevie Wonderful!!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: clavinet-errific!
	1:50pm spodiodi: jam it on the one
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: horn chart on this gives me chills
	🛒 1:51pm Alvy Singer: Talking Book, which was released in October of '72, was Stevie's 15th album. Incredible output considering he started in '62.
	1:53pm doctorjazz: And, he started around age 11, which would have him around 21 for this album.
	1:54pm TDK60: DJ Uncle Michael, I'm here, finally.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: TDK! YOU'RE LATE!
	1:55pm TDK60: Hey, it's Cat.
	1:56pm adamdoesit: Gotta step out for the next hour, just when the joint is jumpin, and the kitties are getting they purr on. Thanks for the tunes, UM.
	1:56pm Roberto: LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS
	1:56pm johnk77: clavinet seen as crucial in both michigan and jamaica? thank u selecter esp. this dr.john
	1:57pm johnk77: cat did NOT start djing
	1:58pm doctorjazz: What a beautiful song Bonnie's covering (one of those I haven't heard a bad version of)
	1:59pm johnk77: just saw brief early 1970s interview w/bonnie on toots hibbert doc from bbc now on youtube also selectah on fyah

	2:03pm prudy: wow...I missed the theme from Sanford and Son...Redd Foxx was such a great physical comedian...
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: also prepping for making eggplant lasagna later today.
	2:04pm johnk77: love has no pride featured at many of bonnie's best live performances
	2:04pm TDK60: Yes, Rich. I'm doing housework but will stop by from time to time to post my witty comments and discerning music critiques..
	2:06pm hyde: it's true, you hear a lot about clown shoes. not so much about clown socks.
	2:06pm johnk77: remix in progress:>
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Paul! Rich!
	2:09pm spodiodi: Phillippe, indeed it do. (was afk, and just saw your q.) also has a supporting model name
	2:12pm Rich in Washington: Late lurky comment #1: Re Rick sound. Recently acquired Fragile on LP for the first time and the ringy Rickenbacker bass sounds are amazing. I'm obsessed by Rick bass sounds lately.
	2:13pm TDK60: That's very discerning of you to notice, Rich in Wa. Great bass sound.
	2:14pm coelacanth∅: fragile's a perfect album
	2:16pm prudy: one of my favorite songs by Wings...thanks UM
	2:16pm TDK60: I haven't listened to Venus & Mars since I was ..... well, I forget...
	2:17pm TDK60: Lighters lit and lifted!
	2:17pm coelacanth∅: just turned on the video, something i rarely do and forgot that sound comes along with it...so chicago sounded far more complex than i remembered it ...and Michael you're wearing one of my favorite fmu ts, and one that gets the most comments from the fmuless population
	2:17pm dan: My uncle actually saw McCartney at the Concertgubow in 1971.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: 😃
	🛒 2:20pm Alvy Singer: Allen Toussaint plays the piano on Rock Show.
	2:21pm TDK60: Paul got excited. Throw a coda in there.
	2:24pm dan: Tumbleweed Connection, Elton John's unsung masterpiece.
	2:24pm TDK60: I just got it. An all-LP show. Round and round. Golly, I'm on it.
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: Nothing gets by you cassette-boy!
	2:31pm Marie: mooshin picture--I like it!
	2:31pm drew: Don't forget Jack Klugman!
	2:32pm coelacanth∅: i Love sushi. i do not love uni.
	2:34pm Listener Gregory: I am running away to rejoin this circus.
	2:34pm WLSClark: TODD is a GOD!! "RA"!!!
	2:35pm dan: Amazing how Todd plays every instrument and sings every word on this song and 3/4 of the Something/Anything album
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Clark!
	2:35pm WLSClark: Uncle, I am seeing what I missed--great stuff!! Pure and Easy and all!!
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: nice to see you hear
	2:36pm Marie: Hate to be a bummer but I just learned that palm oil (article was in The Guardian), in your vittles, is to be avoided--spurs on stomach and mouth cancers--I just dumped some rice snacks last night after seeing they had palm oil
	2:38pm WLSClark: Only knew of Girl of my Dreams and loved that one, but this is even BETTER!
	2:38pm βrian: It's good for greasing palms, but that's it.
	2:38pm doctorjazz: Only know the hit, Girl of my Dreams, but really like this track!
	2:39pm βrian: Gorilla my dreams is how I remember it.
	2:40pm WLSClark: I see "Oops Wrong Planet" got play. I LOVE that album!
	2:40pm TDK60: It's 2:40, you know what that means! Wait...
	2:41pm WLSClark: So sad that Mr. Tavares passed away. "Remember What I Told You to Forget" is my fave.
	2:41pm TDK60: ..am I gettin' lysdexic?
	2:42pm WLSClark: Sad about Joe Simon passing this week too.
	2:42pm doctorjazz: Thought we were going to hear Barry White/Ally McBeal at first...
	2:42pm dan: Another music loss this week was Phil Chen, bass extraordinaire for Rod Stewart and later lineups of The Doors.
	2:45pm Marie: Did you know the Dems are coming to take your music??! Just kiddink--mimicking the right wing here... @)
	2:45pm coelacanth∅: ah, jeez. -and Robbie Shakespear. rest in peace Phil Chen.
	2:45pm WLSClark: Hey, Coel!
	2:46pm Marie: I said it before, I'll say it again, Mr. Science has grown on me, like a fungus
	2:46pm TDK60: I still haven't pulled out some old LPs to blast some hypnotic knock-you-over Robbie bass.
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: take this music and shove it ...in my earholes
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: hey WLSC!
	2:48pm coelacanth∅: - speaking of killer bass
	2:49pm dan: Doesn't anyone want to punch Mr. Science out if he was in your company?

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 17, 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.

	12:09pm Uncle Michael: email link in first comment fixed
	12:09pm Doug Schulkind: The drummer on this Horace Silver album, Roger Humphries, is a local legend here in Pittsburgh. He has been playing live here for generations, but has done exceedingly few recordings and live dates out of town.
	12:09pm Uncle Michael: Doc!
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: What say you?

	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Artie!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: STOP OBSESSING!
	12:14pm Listener Gregory: It is interesting how every few years (like 3-5?) a gospel song would hit the pop charts and do very well. Then you wouldn't hear any on the radio (commercial pop, anyway) for years again. Or is that just my memory?
	12:15pm KimSorise: In 45 minutes, UM!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Gregory!
	12:15pm Uncle Michael: Cool, Kim!
	🛒 12:15pm Phillippe: Howdy

	12:21pm Marie: loverly (the Al Stewart). Hi UM, hi everybody!
	12:21pm dan: Great segue into Peter Sarstedt
	12:22pm Listener Gregory: Don't know Sarstedt... it sounded like Phil Ochs to me! Sorry!
	12:22pm asheville jon: This guy sounds like a creepy stalker
	12:23pm mauri: when you listen to your radioo you tune in to uncle michaeel

	12:25pm efd: oh I would have commented now if I hadn't already commented.
	12:25pm KimSorise: This is our jam, UM!
	12:26pm Marie: That last line about being able to look into her head...I dunno
	12:27pm KimSorise: Very true @dan. Never listened to him with that comparison.
	12:27pm Alex In Illinois: Hi Y'all. I enjoyed Doug's show too.
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Alex!
	12:28pm Artie: Hailing from Dylan Thomas' Welsh neighborhood, no doubt.
	12:28pm dan: Dynamite opening set UM.
	12:31pm doctorjazz: Where Do You Go To My Lovely was played quite a bit, was some sort of hit, I do remember it from back in the day.
	12:33pm dan: I sent my requests in from the get-go.
	12:34pm doctorjazz: How many reissues do you think Song For My Father has had? 98, according to Discogs... www.discogs.com...
	12:35pm doctorjazz: I have this Roches album (was a big fan), actually don't remember this track, typical
	12:37pm hyde: hello!
	12:37pm Uncle Michael: hyde!
	12:38pm KimSorise: Wow @docjazz! That's a series in itself.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: 125, Doc.
	12:40pm adamdoesit: doctorjazz, I don't remember it, either -- and the Roches are part of the musical texture of my childhood. I've been revisiting the McGarrigle Sisters, who I think of in parallel with the Roches. Those records have been full of surprises for me. Maybe I'll turn to Maggie, Terre, and Suzzy next.
	12:42pm dan: Rip Mike Nesmith
	12:42pm hyde: aw, the Nes
	12:43pm Listening Out There: Nesmith hated the hat...

	12:44pm Webhamster Henry: The Roche/McGarrigle/Wainwright folk-a-matic universe is worth exploring!
	12:44pm βrian: Can Zoom add a watch cap to my image?
	12:45pm Webhamster Henry: And now, the two left thumb stylings of Jonathan & Darlene Edwards.
	12:46pm doctorjazz: @adamdoesit-have dug back a bit in the early Roches albums-I love playing Dear Mr Sellack for my actor/daughter, and The Hallelujah Chorus for my classy friends.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: LOT! Henry! Brian!
	12:47pm doctorjazz: So need to go back to Kate and Anna-there's a cover of The Bicycle Song my daughter likes to play for me, have to dig the original out.
	12:49pm johnk77: kenny rankin died in 2009 44 years before played guitar on bringing it all back home
	12:50pm Uncle Michael: john!
	12:51pm doctorjazz: Rankin was on Bringing it all...? Wow, didn't recall that!
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: wrong album cover alert!
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Didn't Alan Sherman do a version of this, Me'chaya? I keep hearing that as they sing...
	12:52pm KimSorise: I just heard a pop song the other day that samples Fresh Garbage. No idea what it was though
	12:53pm listener james from westwood: @Kim: Pink, I think.

	12:56pm dan: Nice Steely Dan vinyl sound
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: Alvy! Happy to, Kim!
	1:00pm listener james from westwood: Who among us isn't whistling along to this TV classic!
	1:00pm dan: "Oh, Elizabeth, I think this is the one."

	🛒 1:01pm Alvy Singer: BB King and The Three Degrees both appeared on episodes of Sanford & Son.
	1:01pm listener james from westwood: Lamont [in a dashiki, in a back-to-his roots phase with a new name]: Just try it, Pop. Kalunda. Kalunda. Fred [walking away dismissively] Calendar!
	1:03pm Alex In Illinois: I heard that Quincy Jones wrote it too.
	1:04pm spodiodi: my father had an old truck that had seen some serious action called Sanford (my grandmother's idea)
	1:07pm Roberto: I'm here for Cat Lucas.
	1:08pm redkayak: Happy Friday all!
	1:08pm Marie: I went out with someone whose grandpa's last name was Sanford who then changed his first name to Sanford such that his full name became Sanford Sanford @).
	1:08pm dan: UM, you should name your next cat Stevens
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	1:09pm spodiodi: that's cool, Marie. my gram also called my father Sanford (usually to shame him when she thought his truck looked especially messy/filled with treasure)
	1:10pm johnk77: @dan winning internet so far today?;>
	1:10pm Roberto: Where dat boi at
	1:11pm Marie: @Spodiodi--I love that your grandma wanted the truck to be named Sanford. I had an old Schwinn that named Sammy

	1:13pm Uncle Michael: which song, Marie?
	🛒 1:13pm Phillippe: Damn, I had totally forgotten Todd was in a band...
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: A couple of bands!
	1:13pm Marie: Yeah, Sammy was a hand-me down from an older bro., red Schwinn

	🛒 1:14pm Phillippe: I had a red Mazda B2000 that I named Go Big Red
	🛒 1:15pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: You're playing all my favorites!
	1:15pm spodiodi: i love that, Phillippe! lol
	1:15pm dan: Any Squeeze coming up? One of their songs would fit perfectly in this set.
	🛒 1:16pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: First XTC song I ever heard - asked in the cafe what they were playing. I love Andy's voice.
	1:17pm spodiodi: my current car's name is the same as Yogi's buddy and one of my first nicknames
	1:18pm Roberto: I think Generals and Majors was my first XTC song. It got a surprising amount of radio play.
	🛒 1:18pm Phillippe: Was XTC made up of flat earthers? "The world is biscuit shaped" doesn't scream big round ball to me...
	1:19pm Roberto: It depends on the application, Philippe. It's biscuit shaped when it's for him to feed his face.
	1:19pm Marie: Well, Philippe, maybe that problems with spatial perception, or their biscuits were globular..
	🛒 1:19pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love Generals and Majors too. Not too keen on Making Plans for Nigel.
	1:19pm Marie: that=they had
	1:20pm Roberto: Joe! Great artist, total idiot regarding his smoking-in-public stance.
	1:20pm dan: Joe Jackson is going back on tour next year.
	🛒 1:20pm Phillippe: @spodi So your car has a couple dents, or boo-boos?
	1:21pm Alex In Illinois: My first XTC song that i heard was "Making Plans for Nigel". Then, "Life Begins at the Hop"
	1:21pm Marie: I saw Joe J. live in the aughts and it was a fantastic show
	🛒 1:22pm Phillippe: I found Joe Jackson's live 2 CD set at a thrift store for a buck. Scarfed that baby up!
	1:22pm dan: @Marie Saw him in 2012 at the Town Hall in Manhattan when he was doing the Duke Ellington repertoire. Him and the band were tight. The absolute best in musicianship.
	1:22pm Marie: I've also had 2 spottings of Joe J. in NYC--once on Broadway, by NYU, and once at an old restaurant in Tribeca--the Ear Inn
	1:23pm sufferwords: yes
	1:23pm Roberto: DAMN dis set doe!
	1:23pm hyde: agree with Roberto
	1:24pm Marie: @dan--absolutely, right on
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: sufferwords! I last saw Joe play in about 2001 or so.
	1:24pm unpopularfred: well I'll be damned, some (early) Joe Jackson I don't know. (While I'm here, Joe did a great cover of King of the World on the Summer in the City album)
	1:24pm doctorjazz: Television!!! Very cool track! (Got to see the original, and the reformed band a few years back at the Solid Sounds festival.)
	1:24pm johnk77: does joe jackson still live on king street in manhattan?
	1:24pm sufferwords: remember when Television was considered punk rock-
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: fred! I didn't know that.
	1:25pm dan: @Marie When they did "Is She Really Going Out With Him", the bass player (not Graham Maby) did the riff on a tuba, Joe was on accordion and the other band members played assorted non-rock instruments
	1:25pm Marie: So many bands that are considered punk were just making really good rock and roll, I find
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Unreleased "Look Sharp" track, Fred...till that promo comp, anyway.
	1:26pm Roberto: Joe recently remarked he was considering leaving New York in protest of the anit-smoking regulations, hence my comment regarding his idiocy.
	1:26pm doctorjazz: Television was always a bad fit for for punk rock (?dueling guitar solos...?)
	1:26pm Marie: @dan--wow, impressive, sounds great
	1:26pm johnk77: yes joe has been pro-cigarette smoking since at least the 80s
	1:27pm listener james from westwood: Squeeze!!
	1:27pm dan: Thanks for the Squeeze UM
	1:28pm doctorjazz: Fabulous set, UM! Love this Squeeze!
	1:28pm dan: @Marie Here's the actual performance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6pLdnkcsmA
	1:28pm Stanley: @Marie - punk wasn't so much a type of music, as a time in musical history. And a big hello to Uncle Michael. Happy to be able to tune in.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: stanley!
	1:30pm Roberto: Joe can shove his cigs you-know-where.
	1:30pm doctorjazz: I'd agree with Stanley, it wasn't so much a musical style (bit, did it harden into one), but an attitude, coupled with sneering vocals.
	1:30pm Stanley: Hi Uncle. Loving these seventies 'hits'.
	1:30pm Roberto: I would use the Brit slang for cigs but some of y'all might find it offensive.
	1:30pm Marie: @Stanley--wow, interesting, I never heard that idea....
	1:31pm Roberto: Try to, not try and.
	1:32pm Roberto: Are we trying and have a good time? I tried and have a good time. Try not and have a good time. Yeah. No.
	1:33pm Marie: @dan--wow, I'll check that link out, thanks!
	1:33pm Roberto: Sorry, that one really bugs me. Almost as much as people smoking anywhere near me.
	1:34pm Roberto: I have no friends. But my cats really love me!
	1:34pm Stanley: @Marie - if you look at the Stiff Records catalogue, you'll see that in the main part it's just good ol' rock n roll (The Damned being the exception), with a gnarly attitude, as Dr Jazz said.
	1:35pm Roberto: You really are taking no prisoners today, UM!
	1:35pm Stanley: Joe Jackson should do a duet with Joni Mitchell
	1:36pm Marie: @Stanley, yeah, hm, I know offhand that Still Little Fingers was on that label and they fit right into what ur saying
	1:36pm Pedro in Arlington: Dandy show today, Uncle Michael. A pleasure.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: Roberto, you didn't hear my comma?
	1:37pm Roberto: Oh shiz. Sorry, UM. The comma makes it correct.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: Pedro!
	1:37pm Marie: Gosh, I make typos all over the place--Still=Stiff, above, and now I am doubting if they are in fact on Stiff Records. Nevermind. @)
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Pedro!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: NSTAGP
	1:41pm Roberto: Uncle, Uncle!
	1:41pm hyde: haha, the second concert i ever went to was Yes (in the round! anyone remember that gimmick?)
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: In don't take prisoners, Roberto. Wait for the Red Cross.
	1:42pm Roberto: This sure has been a great couple of sets to wait for Lucas to.
	1:42pm spodiodi: GTAV in the heezy!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Lucas is sleeping on the bed, if I know Lucas.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: GTAV?
	1:43pm Marie: @hyde--yes, I saw Prince live, in the round, back in the 90s and it was, not surprisingly, truly awesome. Sometimes it really makes sense in terms of the space
	1:43pm dan: I wish the surviving core members of Yes: Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Steve Howe, Alan White can reunite for one last tour. Tony Levin should do bass as he did with AWBH
	1:44pm hyde: @Marie wow, that sounds better than seeing Yes!
	1:46pm Marie: I don't know about that but Prince believed in giving the audience their money's worth--unlike a lot of bands. He was an amazing performer (as were his cohorts @) )
	1:46pm dan: I've seen plenty of groups in the round at Westbury Music Fair like Ringo Starr, The Moody Blues, Steve Winwood, to name a few.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: this Rick bass sounds SO great...never gets old
	1:48pm spodiodi: UM, Grand Theft Auto V (video game -- lots of great songs like this one on it's radio stations.) this one inspired me to maek a race course in the editor. after that, the publisher created a similar race.
	1:49pm johnk77: the sound of a clavinet?
	1:49pm Stanley: Stevie Wonderful!!
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: clavinet-errific!
	1:50pm spodiodi: jam it on the one
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: horn chart on this gives me chills
	🛒 1:51pm Alvy Singer: Talking Book, which was released in October of '72, was Stevie's 15th album. Incredible output considering he started in '62.
	1:53pm doctorjazz: And, he started around age 11, which would have him around 21 for this album.
	1:54pm TDK60: DJ Uncle Michael, I'm here, finally.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: TDK! YOU'RE LATE!
	1:55pm TDK60: Hey, it's Cat.
	1:56pm adamdoesit: Gotta step out for the next hour, just when the joint is jumpin, and the kitties are getting they purr on. Thanks for the tunes, UM.
	1:56pm Roberto: LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSS
	1:56pm johnk77: clavinet seen as crucial in both michigan and jamaica? thank u selecter esp. this dr.john
	1:57pm johnk77: cat did NOT start djing
	1:58pm doctorjazz: What a beautiful song Bonnie's covering (one of those I haven't heard a bad version of)
	1:59pm johnk77: just saw brief early 1970s interview w/bonnie on toots hibbert doc from bbc now on youtube also selectah on fyah

	2:03pm prudy: wow...I missed the theme from Sanford and Son...Redd Foxx was such a great physical comedian...
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: also prepping for making eggplant lasagna later today.
	2:04pm johnk77: love has no pride featured at many of bonnie's best live performances
	2:04pm TDK60: Yes, Rich. I'm doing housework but will stop by from time to time to post my witty comments and discerning music critiques..
	2:06pm hyde: it's true, you hear a lot about clown shoes. not so much about clown socks.
	2:06pm johnk77: remix in progress:>
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Paul! Rich!
	2:09pm spodiodi: Phillippe, indeed it do. (was afk, and just saw your q.) also has a supporting model name
	2:12pm Rich in Washington: Late lurky comment #1: Re Rick sound. Recently acquired Fragile on LP for the first time and the ringy Rickenbacker bass sounds are amazing. I'm obsessed by Rick bass sounds lately.
	2:13pm TDK60: That's very discerning of you to notice, Rich in Wa. Great bass sound.
	2:14pm coelacanth∅: fragile's a perfect album
	2:16pm prudy: one of my favorite songs by Wings...thanks UM
	2:16pm TDK60: I haven't listened to Venus & Mars since I was ..... well, I forget...
	2:17pm TDK60: Lighters lit and lifted!
	2:17pm coelacanth∅: just turned on the video, something i rarely do and forgot that sound comes along with it...so chicago sounded far more complex than i remembered it ...and Michael you're wearing one of my favorite fmu ts, and one that gets the most comments from the fmuless population
	2:17pm dan: My uncle actually saw McCartney at the Concertgubow in 1971.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: 😃
	🛒 2:20pm Alvy Singer: Allen Toussaint plays the piano on Rock Show.
	2:21pm TDK60: Paul got excited. Throw a coda in there.
	2:24pm dan: Tumbleweed Connection, Elton John's unsung masterpiece.
	2:24pm TDK60: I just got it. An all-LP show. Round and round. Golly, I'm on it.
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: Nothing gets by you cassette-boy!
	2:31pm Marie: mooshin picture--I like it!

	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Clark!
	2:35pm WLSClark: Uncle, I am seeing what I missed--great stuff!! Pure and Easy and all!!
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: nice to see you hear
	2:36pm Marie: Hate to be a bummer but I just learned that palm oil (article was in The Guardian), in your vittles, is to be avoided--spurs on stomach and mouth cancers--I just dumped some rice snacks last night after seeing they had palm oil
	2:38pm WLSClark: Only knew of Girl of my Dreams and loved that one, but this is even BETTER!
	2:38pm βrian: It's good for greasing palms, but that's it.
	2:38pm doctorjazz: Only know the hit, Girl of my Dreams, but really like this track!
	2:39pm βrian: Gorilla my dreams is how I remember it.
	2:40pm WLSClark: I see "Oops Wrong Planet" got play. I LOVE that album!
	2:40pm TDK60: It's 2:40, you know what that means! Wait...
	2:41pm WLSClark: So sad that Mr. Tavares passed away. "Remember What I Told You to Forget" is my fave.
	2:41pm TDK60: ..am I gettin' lysdexic?
	2:42pm WLSClark: Sad about Joe Simon passing this week too.
	2:42pm doctorjazz: Thought we were going to hear Barry White/Ally McBeal at first...
	2:42pm dan: Another music loss this week was Phil Chen, bass extraordinaire for Rod Stewart and later lineups of The Doors.
	2:45pm Marie: Did you know the Dems are coming to take your music??! Just kiddink--mimicking the right wing here... @)
	2:45pm coelacanth∅: ah, jeez. -and Robbie Shakespear. rest in peace Phil Chen.
	2:45pm WLSClark: Hey, Coel!
	2:46pm Marie: I said it before, I'll say it again, Mr. Science has grown on me, like a fungus
	2:46pm TDK60: I still haven't pulled out some old LPs to blast some hypnotic knock-you-over Robbie bass.
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: take this music and shove it ...in my earholes
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: hey WLSC!
	2:48pm coelacanth∅: - speaking of killer bass
	2:49pm dan: Doesn't anyone want to punch Mr. Science out if he was in your company?
	2:49pm WLSClark: 5 years of brilliance closing fast after this came out.

	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I need to find myself some wings.
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: not the album version
	2:53pm WLSClark: I wish we could see all the Summer of Soul films. Bob Irwin saw them and I think maybe 50 hours worth, not sure?
