	12:02pm Listening Out There: ...every doggone thang...
	12:02pm dan: Good afternoon. Let's Hinky and Dinky.
	12:02pm Rudy Poot: Someone ask for me?
	12:03pm βrian: Is a rooty-poot akin to a square root?
	12:03pm burke: Ah, but I cannot be an accomplice to a rudy poot.
	12:04pm Roberto: Whoop-dee-dee it's hunky dunky dinky winky pinky time.
	12:04pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! LOT! dan! Rudy! Brian! burke!
	12:04pm Webhamster Henry: Topeka popped up in a crossword puzzle I was doing the other day #claimtofame
	🛒 12:05pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: duuuuuude
	12:05pm davefromtoronto: that's cold...
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! Henry!
	12:05pm Roberto: Yay Byrds!
	🛒 12:05pm Franco Twinkie: Hey hey.
	12:05pm Jeff Golick: I think I would watch a "making of" documentary about the making of today's GIF/vid.
	🛒 12:07pm Brian in UK: Uncle. Not wanting to be picky but what is the connection twixt Byrds and Boettcher?
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! dave! Franco! Jeff! Brian!
	🛒 12:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: that gif is fantastic!
	12:09pm dan: Evelyn isn't much of a bluesy name like Bertha or Irma.
	12:10pm chresti: Hi Dinkees!
	12:10pm david w: Uncle Michael's spirit animal?
	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Just backing vocals, Brian.
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: chresti! David!
	12:12pm βrian: My spirit animal is a bartender.
	🛒 12:13pm WR: Who's Evelyn?
	12:13pm doctorjazz: Hello Dinks! (Hinks too, don't want you to feel left out)
	12:13pm dan: I'm convinced, Nick Gilder is not a man.
	12:13pm Roberto: Nick channeling Ronnie Spector.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: WR! Doc!
	🛒 12:14pm Brian in UK: Uncle, I see. One of Firesign is on that album, making the exploding noise on Draft Morning. Allegedly.
	🛒 12:15pm Franco Twinkie: Is it bad form to say my spirit animal has been grilled and put on a tortilla with lots of fresh beans and salsa verde?
	12:15pm βrian: We used to be dinks in our household. Now we're dioks. That came as a surprise.
	12:17pm Rich in Washington: What kind of hinky dink you peddling here?
	🛒 12:18pm WR: Franco, didn't someone write that you are videoing your adventures with freshly made tortillas and mole? When is the premier?
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:19pm johnk77: my spirit animal is a twisted funky root cooked or raw nice work selecter
	12:20pm βrian: Prairie turnips are funky, I've heard.
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: john!
	12:21pm johnk77: that nick gilder deep track co-written by the artist produced by chapman and peter coleman who was perhaps with chinnichap around that time?
	12:22pm chresti: I've been told that Bobcat is my spirit animal.
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: WR, was that me shooting my mouth off again? Yes I am, but the story is just starting to reveal itself. Many more tortillas must be consumed and considered before I can get out the digital glue gun.
	12:24pm βrian: Spirit Mole was Doug's first band in high school, I've heard.
	12:26pm Jeff Golick: I just got Caravan bingo.
	🛒 12:27pm Franco Twinkie: Brian, Fresh Mole was the lead track on the first Spirit album, but in 1968 mole was unknown to most people, so they changed the title to Fresh Garbage.
	12:28pm johnk77: spirit killed live
	🛒 12:31pm Franco Twinkie: Spirit had a hit with I Got A Line On You, which was originally called I Got Mole On My Shirt, but once again cooler heads prevailed.
	12:32pm Roberto: Now that UM has broached the subject, I'm having major orthodontic work done and my mouf is full of all kinds of meshugos.
	12:33pm Roberto: And it's only going to get worse from here.
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: ouch
	12:34pm Jeff Golick: I don't think I've ever heard any other version of "Black Diamond."
	12:36pm Artie: The Donnas are awesome.
	12:36pm burke: Headbanging at the La Quinta Inn in Fresno
	12:36pm Roberto: I put it off for 30 years and now it's coming home to roost.
	12:37pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow hinky dinky listeners
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Artie! John!
	12:38pm chresti: Someone recently said their implant fell out..
	12:39pm John from Florham park: @Uncle mike howdy @Chestri howdy
	12:39pm chresti: John howdy do.
	12:39pm doctorjazz: I thought the first Mole hit was, "I Got A Lime on You"
	12:42pm chresti: Haha doc
	🛒 12:42pm Franco Twinkie: No, iJa,ja,ja!
	12:43pm John from Florham park: Wow all kiss songs hope I hear a version of beth too
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: No power ballads.
	12:45pm chresti: Thank you
	12:46pm John from Florham park: @Uncle Michael sniff sniff
	12:54pm Jeff Golick: Lyrically, KISS might've been a bit one-note.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: They were committed.
	12:55pm Jeff Golick: I should've signed that comment, "Captain Obvious."
	12:57pm spodiodi: party?? i come for the hinks, but i stay for the dinks \m/ UM!
	1:01pm dan: Doctor's office radio choices aren't great to begin with.
	1:01pm spodiodi: i could barely feel my new dentist's hands in my mouth. so gentle. no pain.
	1:01pm Listening Out There: When I go to the dentist's I hear...Chicago, The Eagles, Elton John...another downside to those visits...
	1:02pm chresti: AI probably curated the music selection
	1:02pm John from Florham park: Uncle Michael the only channel I listen too on SiriusXM is deep tracks and they are doing a tribute to rush wich gets a little old after a while
	1:03pm chresti: haha Turn up the drill!
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: spodi!
	🛒 1:04pm WR: All pain is relative.
	1:04pm The Oscar: Eye-to-eye contact sounds uncomfortable.
	🛒 1:04pm Franco Twinkie: If we were youngsters we might be talking about going to buy a bag of weed and some acid in excruciating detail, but time moves on and priorities change, no?
	1:05pm Handy Haversack: Goodness, I missed quite a set on the way home. But now I can turn up the volume at least. Hello, all. First time listening to this show. Hiya, John from FP!
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	🛒 1:05pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: My dentist has the Sirius "romance" channel which is mostly horrible 70s era goopy love songs. Used to be just the straight 70s channel which at least had more variety. During the holidays they had on the Hallmark holiday channel (although both the dentist and her assistant are Indian and remarked that they hear enough holiday music elsewhere) AND I got hit by the $%^(& Little Drummer Boy. Adding insult to injury!
	1:06pm Uncle Michael: Handy!
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Damn, Lizzie.
	1:12pm dan: Sounds just like "Rock Around The Clock"
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: And "Move It On Over".
	1:13pm Handy Haversack: People used to be able to jump only on clocks as they moved over. Led to some confusion in early rock.
	1:14pm dan: RASPBERRIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:20pm Mark R.: Nice to hear one of the Mott album tracks, I really only know the hits.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: This is one of my favorite Mott tracks.
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: I like Ian Hunter's voice.
	1:21pm dan: I would love to hear Mott The Hoople in a dentist waiting room.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Mark!
	1:24pm doctorjazz: My dentist used to let me pick a channel on Spotify to listen to while he worked. He stopped doing that, though, just current pop now, if anything (I wonder if my asking for the Ornette Coleman channel had anything to do with that...)
	1:25pm βrian: Yesterday, we were discussing listening to Arvo Pärt while in the dentist's chair.
	1:26pm chresti: I think opera or classical would go with the drill sounds.
	1:27pm Mark R.: The WFMU app on your phone is handy at the dentist. I once listened to Trouble's show while getting a root canal (true story).
	1:31pm βrian: I'm down to zero apps on my phone now. Nice and tidy.
	1:31pm dan: Got to hear ELO perform this live at Radio City, simply amazing
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: Brian, you could just carry around a candy bar or a bar of soap.
	1:36pm βrian: Nah, I have a browser, e-mail, text, and even a friggin' video camera. Apps are just vectors of infection.
	1:38pm chresti: Haha UM.
	1:38pm Hubig Pie: Townes Van Zandt for the dentist chair music
	1:40pm annie: i worked for a woman who found his music fine....we went crazy listening to hour after hour of (t)his drudge
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Hubig!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: annie! I adore this drudge...what a GREAT album
	1:42pm chresti: People are getting their phones swiped from their hands in downtown LA, having a bar of soap in their hands instead would of prevented that.
	🛒 1:43pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti and I were just talking about ELO and their tenancy to sing about winsome unrealized emotional states, as opposed to Mott The Hoople who described dodgier situations that you might look at as aspirational. Am I nuts?
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: I have no opinion with regard to your mental state, Franco. I'm not a qualified therapist.
	1:45pm annie: well,UM, ya had to be there... it was tedious a terrible way to turn someone on to townes
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: I thought we were talking about Crosby!
	1:46pm annie: ... andi LOVE townes's music
	🛒 1:48pm Franco Twinkie: Fair enough, Michael. However an objective listener would most likely come to the same conclusion.
	1:48pm dan: Nobel Laureate Robert Zimmerman
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: I have never been accused of being one of those, either.
	1:51pm still b/p: I used to love hearing 'Lily..." on the radio back in the day. I'm sure my responsiveness must be mentioned in the documentary about WBCN that's showing in Monty Hall soon.
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: still b/p! Mentioned in the documentary?
	1:54pm doctorjazz: Bobby Die-lan, started watching the doc, Rolling Thunder, music was fun in it.
	1:55pm still b/p: Noooo...no mention in it, just being silly about them being of course oblivious to what kids in the 'burbs listening might find extra appeal in. I am eager to see the doc if it comes 'round my way.
	1:55pm Jeff Golick: I listened to this Bob recently. Still not into it. I think it's because I don't listen to words that closely.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: It's a great movie, Jeff.
	1:58pm βrian: Ah, I read that as WCBN. I'd love to see that, if so.
	🛒 1:59pm Franco Twinkie: So, The Grateful Dead recorded this before John Philips, the writer?
	2:04pm Listening Out There: Another tune that would have fit in that set is Mountain's "Theme for an Imaginary Western." Woulda, woulda...
	2:04pm chresti: This "Dawn Air" would work with a root canal.
	2:04pm doctorjazz: Awww, missed Townes...
	🛒 2:05pm Franco Twinkie: How about Western Movies by The Olympics?
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Franco.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: And Heroes & Villains...
	2:10pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Uncle Michael! Sorry I missed the Kiss covers set (but then again, I can listen to it in perpetuity in about an hour).
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: Hey Gaylord! I shoulda known that was in your wheelhouse.
	2:12pm still b/p: This Lynne song is beautiful. And makes me weep.
	2:13pm Gaylord Fields: Oh, yeah! One of my favorites is the Volebeats' version of "See You Tonight" from the Gene solo LP.
	2:14pm Marie: Another ab fab gif. I'm really enjoying your show today, UM. Thanks! Hi all!
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: I'll seek that out, Gaylord.
	2:15pm Jeff Golick: A Very Gentle Sound was the name of my first, and last, high school band.
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Marie! Thank you.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Mixed Nuts was the name of my first(and last) High School Band (we didn't have the cojones to call ourselves Hot Nuts).
	2:19pm doctorjazz: (After that I became a sensitive acoustic guitar strummer...)
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: You keep at it, and the callouses will come.
	2:23pm doctorjazz: That came and went.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: Fantastic show today, UM! Been listening from my kitchetorium while cooking up an epic meal.
	2:26pm Hubig Pie: My high school band was "Gastrointestinal and the Flu" before it was changed to "The Ruptured Cockamamies"
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Rich. Whatcha making?
	2:28pm βrian: Does "kitchetorium" imply there's a studio audience? À la Galloping Gourmet?
	2:31pm still b/p: Never had a high school band, but my buddies and I did discuss doing a rock lip sync act in monk robes at intermission in the annual school musical (for which we always were the stage & lighting crew). I remain grateful to this day -- I THANK the stars -- that our lack of initiative prevented the plan's realization, and prevented even any official proposal of it.
	2:32pm Dean: As with many JMT records, Stefan Winter reissued the Hank Roberts on his Winter & Winter label.
	2:34pm chresti: I have a distant cousin that was called the Iceman during his football career.
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	2:34pm chresti: Love this Senor Coconut.
	2:35pm chresti: ..that was your bed music.
	2:36pm burke: Thanks for the show, and a happy weekend to all! I bet on the groundhog to beat the spread on Sunday
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Indeedly-do!
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Never bet against Phil.
	2:37pm Rich in Washington: @βrian: only in my head. I host an imaginary cooking show.
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: Is this what Liverpool is like?
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: @UM: I made something like potatoes O'Brien with rosemary picked out of our garden, then cooked eggs sunnyside up in the middle of it, with chorizo sausages on the side. Defib kit at the ready.
	🛒 2:40pm Franco Twinkie: Thank you Michael. I gotta split early and pay my moms water bill RIGHT NOW, followed by a Thai seafood curry before the lunch rush.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: nice!
	2:40pm βrian: I love to cook. My most recent challenge is satisfying a 6-yr-old. Anchovies, kalamata olives, and Thai fish soup have passed muster, among other things.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: HURRY, Franco!
	2:41pm βrian: I hear you can use a defib kit, in a pinch, to harden the caramel on a crème brûlée.
	2:41pm still b/p: I gotta go to Bureau of Motor Vehicles...and I don't wannaaaaaaaa!
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: You'll meet nice people! You'll make new friends!
	2:42pm Handy Haversack: But can you use it to get Maud into the perfumed garden, @βrian?
	2:43pm still b/p: I'll stand up and call out, "FMU...? Uncle Michael fans? Right....right? Yah!"
	2:43pm chresti: Sounds like your 6 year old has well developed taste, Brian.
	2:44pm Roberto: Durn, that's twangy!
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Do it!!
	2:45pm dan: Dave Swarbrick was one hell of a fiddle player, almost on the same level as Charlie Daniels.
	🛒 2:45pm Brian in UK: @βrian what stock did you use for the soup?
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Dan, you made milk shoot out my nose...and I'm not even drinking milk.
	2:47pm doctorjazz: I got some Winter and Winter records, but foolishly passed on many BECAUSE THEY COST A BUCK MORE THAN OTHER CD'S. Talk about short sighted. (Hat Hut produced the same reaction in me, to my regret).
	2:47pm doctorjazz: Love Spence!
	2:47pm dan: @UM What's that supposed to mean?
	2:49pm Dean: Joseph Spence reminds me of the guitarist (or ukulele player?) who appeared frequently on LA's KPFK, an Asian(-American?) fellow, iirc, who often busked around downtown LA in the '80s, '90s. Can't remember his name...help?
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: That you think more of Charlie's abilities than I do.
	2:51pm Dean: I confess I acquired most of my W&W stuff as used records.
	2:51pm dan: @UM Listen to "The South's Gonna Do It Again" and tell me that Charlie Daniels isn't a great fiddle player.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: OK. I'll get back to you.
	2:54pm Gaylord Fields: I listen to "The South's Gonna Do It Again" and get nauseated. But that has nothing to do with CD's fiddling prowess or lack thereof.
	2:54pm chresti: Don't know, Dean. Sorry.
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Really enjoyed the show, @Uncle Michael. Glad to have listened. Just wish the KISS covers set hadn't been while I was on the subway!
	2:55pm Dean: Thanks, chresti.
	2:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks, UM, great stuff, great fun as usual...
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks UM!
	2:59pm Asheville Jon: Thanks UM!!!
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: Jon!
	3:01pm spodiodi: thanks, UM!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 31, 2020

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.

	12:02pm Listening Out There: ...every doggone thang...
	12:02pm dan: Good afternoon. Let's Hinky and Dinky.
	12:02pm Rudy Poot: Someone ask for me?
	12:03pm βrian: Is a rooty-poot akin to a square root?
	12:03pm burke: Ah, but I cannot be an accomplice to a rudy poot.
	12:04pm Roberto: Whoop-dee-dee it's hunky dunky dinky winky pinky time.
	12:04pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! LOT! dan! Rudy! Brian! burke!
	12:04pm Webhamster Henry: Topeka popped up in a crossword puzzle I was doing the other day #claimtofame
	🛒 12:05pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: duuuuuude
	12:05pm davefromtoronto: that's cold...
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Roberto! Henry!
	12:05pm Roberto: Yay Byrds!
	🛒 12:05pm Franco Twinkie: Hey hey.
	12:05pm Jeff Golick: I think I would watch a "making of" documentary about the making of today's GIF/vid.
	🛒 12:07pm Brian in UK: Uncle. Not wanting to be picky but what is the connection twixt Byrds and Boettcher?
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! dave! Franco! Jeff! Brian!
	🛒 12:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: that gif is fantastic!
	12:09pm dan: Evelyn isn't much of a bluesy name like Bertha or Irma.
	12:10pm chresti: Hi Dinkees!
	12:10pm david w: Uncle Michael's spirit animal?
	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Just backing vocals, Brian.
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: chresti! David!
	12:12pm βrian: My spirit animal is a bartender.
	🛒 12:13pm WR: Who's Evelyn?
	12:13pm doctorjazz: Hello Dinks! (Hinks too, don't want you to feel left out)
	12:13pm dan: I'm convinced, Nick Gilder is not a man.
	12:13pm Roberto: Nick channeling Ronnie Spector.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: WR! Doc!
	🛒 12:14pm Brian in UK: Uncle, I see. One of Firesign is on that album, making the exploding noise on Draft Morning. Allegedly.
	🛒 12:15pm Franco Twinkie: Is it bad form to say my spirit animal has been grilled and put on a tortilla with lots of fresh beans and salsa verde?
	12:15pm βrian: We used to be dinks in our household. Now we're dioks. That came as a surprise.
	12:17pm Rich in Washington: What kind of hinky dink you peddling here?
	🛒 12:18pm WR: Franco, didn't someone write that you are videoing your adventures with freshly made tortillas and mole? When is the premier?
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:19pm johnk77: my spirit animal is a twisted funky root cooked or raw nice work selecter
	12:20pm βrian: Prairie turnips are funky, I've heard.
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: john!
	12:21pm johnk77: that nick gilder deep track co-written by the artist produced by chapman and peter coleman who was perhaps with chinnichap around that time?
	12:22pm chresti: I've been told that Bobcat is my spirit animal.
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: WR, was that me shooting my mouth off again? Yes I am, but the story is just starting to reveal itself. Many more tortillas must be consumed and considered before I can get out the digital glue gun.
	12:24pm βrian: Spirit Mole was Doug's first band in high school, I've heard.
	12:26pm Jeff Golick: I just got Caravan bingo.
	🛒 12:27pm Franco Twinkie: Brian, Fresh Mole was the lead track on the first Spirit album, but in 1968 mole was unknown to most people, so they changed the title to Fresh Garbage.
	12:28pm johnk77: spirit killed live
	🛒 12:31pm Franco Twinkie: Spirit had a hit with I Got A Line On You, which was originally called I Got Mole On My Shirt, but once again cooler heads prevailed.
	12:32pm Roberto: Now that UM has broached the subject, I'm having major orthodontic work done and my mouf is full of all kinds of meshugos.
	12:33pm Roberto: And it's only going to get worse from here.
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: ouch
	12:34pm Jeff Golick: I don't think I've ever heard any other version of "Black Diamond."
	12:36pm Artie: The Donnas are awesome.
	12:36pm burke: Headbanging at the La Quinta Inn in Fresno
	12:36pm Roberto: I put it off for 30 years and now it's coming home to roost.
	12:37pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow hinky dinky listeners
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Artie! John!
	12:38pm chresti: Someone recently said their implant fell out..
	12:39pm John from Florham park: @Uncle mike howdy @Chestri howdy
	12:39pm chresti: John howdy do.
	12:39pm doctorjazz: I thought the first Mole hit was, "I Got A Lime on You"
	12:42pm chresti: Haha doc
	🛒 12:42pm Franco Twinkie: No, iJa,ja,ja!
	12:43pm John from Florham park: Wow all kiss songs hope I hear a version of beth too
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: No power ballads.
	12:45pm chresti: Thank you
	12:46pm John from Florham park: @Uncle Michael sniff sniff
	12:54pm Jeff Golick: Lyrically, KISS might've been a bit one-note.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: They were committed.
	12:55pm Jeff Golick: I should've signed that comment, "Captain Obvious."
	12:57pm spodiodi: party?? i come for the hinks, but i stay for the dinks \m/ UM!
	1:01pm dan: Doctor's office radio choices aren't great to begin with.
	1:01pm spodiodi: i could barely feel my new dentist's hands in my mouth. so gentle. no pain.
	1:01pm Listening Out There: When I go to the dentist's I hear...Chicago, The Eagles, Elton John...another downside to those visits...
	1:02pm chresti: AI probably curated the music selection
	1:02pm John from Florham park: Uncle Michael the only channel I listen too on SiriusXM is deep tracks and they are doing a tribute to rush wich gets a little old after a while
	1:03pm chresti: haha Turn up the drill!
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: spodi!
	🛒 1:04pm WR: All pain is relative.
	1:04pm The Oscar: Eye-to-eye contact sounds uncomfortable.
	🛒 1:04pm Franco Twinkie: If we were youngsters we might be talking about going to buy a bag of weed and some acid in excruciating detail, but time moves on and priorities change, no?
	1:05pm Handy Haversack: Goodness, I missed quite a set on the way home. But now I can turn up the volume at least. Hello, all. First time listening to this show. Hiya, John from FP!
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	🛒 1:05pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: My dentist has the Sirius "romance" channel which is mostly horrible 70s era goopy love songs. Used to be just the straight 70s channel which at least had more variety. During the holidays they had on the Hallmark holiday channel (although both the dentist and her assistant are Indian and remarked that they hear enough holiday music elsewhere) AND I got hit by the $%^(& Little Drummer Boy. Adding insult to injury!
	1:06pm Uncle Michael: Handy!
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Damn, Lizzie.
	1:12pm dan: Sounds just like "Rock Around The Clock"
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: And "Move It On Over".
	1:13pm Handy Haversack: People used to be able to jump only on clocks as they moved over. Led to some confusion in early rock.
	1:14pm dan: RASPBERRIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:20pm Mark R.: Nice to hear one of the Mott album tracks, I really only know the hits.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: This is one of my favorite Mott tracks.
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: I like Ian Hunter's voice.
	1:21pm dan: I would love to hear Mott The Hoople in a dentist waiting room.
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Mark!
	1:24pm doctorjazz: My dentist used to let me pick a channel on Spotify to listen to while he worked. He stopped doing that, though, just current pop now, if anything (I wonder if my asking for the Ornette Coleman channel had anything to do with that...)
	1:25pm βrian: Yesterday, we were discussing listening to Arvo Pärt while in the dentist's chair.
	1:26pm chresti: I think opera or classical would go with the drill sounds.
	1:27pm Mark R.: The WFMU app on your phone is handy at the dentist. I once listened to Trouble's show while getting a root canal (true story).
	1:31pm βrian: I'm down to zero apps on my phone now. Nice and tidy.
	1:31pm dan: Got to hear ELO perform this live at Radio City, simply amazing
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: Brian, you could just carry around a candy bar or a bar of soap.
	1:36pm βrian: Nah, I have a browser, e-mail, text, and even a friggin' video camera. Apps are just vectors of infection.
	1:38pm chresti: Haha UM.
	1:38pm Hubig Pie: Townes Van Zandt for the dentist chair music
	1:40pm annie: i worked for a woman who found his music fine....we went crazy listening to hour after hour of (t)his drudge
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Hubig!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: annie! I adore this drudge...what a GREAT album
	1:42pm chresti: People are getting their phones swiped from their hands in downtown LA, having a bar of soap in their hands instead would of prevented that.
	🛒 1:43pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti and I were just talking about ELO and their tenancy to sing about winsome unrealized emotional states, as opposed to Mott The Hoople who described dodgier situations that you might look at as aspirational. Am I nuts?
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: I have no opinion with regard to your mental state, Franco. I'm not a qualified therapist.
	1:45pm annie: well,UM, ya had to be there... it was tedious a terrible way to turn someone on to townes
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: I thought we were talking about Crosby!
	1:46pm annie: ... andi LOVE townes's music
	🛒 1:48pm Franco Twinkie: Fair enough, Michael. However an objective listener would most likely come to the same conclusion.
	1:48pm dan: Nobel Laureate Robert Zimmerman
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: I have never been accused of being one of those, either.
	1:51pm still b/p: I used to love hearing 'Lily..." on the radio back in the day. I'm sure my responsiveness must be mentioned in the documentary about WBCN that's showing in Monty Hall soon.
	1:52pm Uncle Michael: still b/p! Mentioned in the documentary?
	1:54pm doctorjazz: Bobby Die-lan, started watching the doc, Rolling Thunder, music was fun in it.
	1:55pm still b/p: Noooo...no mention in it, just being silly about them being of course oblivious to what kids in the 'burbs listening might find extra appeal in. I am eager to see the doc if it comes 'round my way.
	1:55pm Jeff Golick: I listened to this Bob recently. Still not into it. I think it's because I don't listen to words that closely.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: It's a great movie, Jeff.
	1:58pm βrian: Ah, I read that as WCBN. I'd love to see that, if so.
	🛒 1:59pm Franco Twinkie: So, The Grateful Dead recorded this before John Philips, the writer?
	2:04pm Listening Out There: Another tune that would have fit in that set is Mountain's "Theme for an Imaginary Western." Woulda, woulda...
	2:04pm chresti: This "Dawn Air" would work with a root canal.
	2:04pm doctorjazz: Awww, missed Townes...
	🛒 2:05pm Franco Twinkie: How about Western Movies by The Olympics?
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Franco.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: And Heroes & Villains...
	2:10pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Uncle Michael! Sorry I missed the Kiss covers set (but then again, I can listen to it in perpetuity in about an hour).
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: Hey Gaylord! I shoulda known that was in your wheelhouse.
	2:12pm still b/p: This Lynne song is beautiful. And makes me weep.
	2:13pm Gaylord Fields: Oh, yeah! One of my favorites is the Volebeats' version of "See You Tonight" from the Gene solo LP.
	2:14pm Marie: Another ab fab gif. I'm really enjoying your show today, UM. Thanks! Hi all!
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: I'll seek that out, Gaylord.
	2:15pm Jeff Golick: A Very Gentle Sound was the name of my first, and last, high school band.
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: Marie! Thank you.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Mixed Nuts was the name of my first(and last) High School Band (we didn't have the cojones to call ourselves Hot Nuts).
	2:19pm doctorjazz: (After that I became a sensitive acoustic guitar strummer...)
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: You keep at it, and the callouses will come.
	2:23pm doctorjazz: That came and went.
	2:25pm Rich in Washington: Fantastic show today, UM! Been listening from my kitchetorium while cooking up an epic meal.
	2:26pm Hubig Pie: My high school band was "Gastrointestinal and the Flu" before it was changed to "The Ruptured Cockamamies"
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Thank you, Rich. Whatcha making?
	2:28pm βrian: Does "kitchetorium" imply there's a studio audience? À la Galloping Gourmet?
	2:31pm still b/p: Never had a high school band, but my buddies and I did discuss doing a rock lip sync act in monk robes at intermission in the annual school musical (for which we always were the stage & lighting crew). I remain grateful to this day -- I THANK the stars -- that our lack of initiative prevented the plan's realization, and prevented even any official proposal of it.
	2:32pm Dean: As with many JMT records, Stefan Winter reissued the Hank Roberts on his Winter & Winter label.
	2:34pm chresti: I have a distant cousin that was called the Iceman during his football career.
	2:34pm Uncle Michael: Dean!
	2:34pm chresti: Love this Senor Coconut.
	2:35pm chresti: ..that was your bed music.
	2:36pm burke: Thanks for the show, and a happy weekend to all! I bet on the groundhog to beat the spread on Sunday
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Indeedly-do!
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Never bet against Phil.
	2:37pm Rich in Washington: @βrian: only in my head. I host an imaginary cooking show.
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: Is this what Liverpool is like?
	2:39pm Rich in Washington: @UM: I made something like potatoes O'Brien with rosemary picked out of our garden, then cooked eggs sunnyside up in the middle of it, with chorizo sausages on the side. Defib kit at the ready.
	🛒 2:40pm Franco Twinkie: Thank you Michael. I gotta split early and pay my moms water bill RIGHT NOW, followed by a Thai seafood curry before the lunch rush.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: nice!
	2:40pm βrian: I love to cook. My most recent challenge is satisfying a 6-yr-old. Anchovies, kalamata olives, and Thai fish soup have passed muster, among other things.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: HURRY, Franco!
	2:41pm βrian: I hear you can use a defib kit, in a pinch, to harden the caramel on a crème brûlée.
	2:41pm still b/p: I gotta go to Bureau of Motor Vehicles...and I don't wannaaaaaaaa!
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: You'll meet nice people! You'll make new friends!
	2:42pm Handy Haversack: But can you use it to get Maud into the perfumed garden, @βrian?
	2:43pm still b/p: I'll stand up and call out, "FMU...? Uncle Michael fans? Right....right? Yah!"
	2:43pm chresti: Sounds like your 6 year old has well developed taste, Brian.
	2:44pm Roberto: Durn, that's twangy!
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Do it!!
	2:45pm dan: Dave Swarbrick was one hell of a fiddle player, almost on the same level as Charlie Daniels.
	🛒 2:45pm Brian in UK: @βrian what stock did you use for the soup?
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Dan, you made milk shoot out my nose...and I'm not even drinking milk.
	2:47pm doctorjazz: I got some Winter and Winter records, but foolishly passed on many BECAUSE THEY COST A BUCK MORE THAN OTHER CD'S. Talk about short sighted. (Hat Hut produced the same reaction in me, to my regret).
	2:47pm doctorjazz: Love Spence!
	2:47pm dan: @UM What's that supposed to mean?
	2:49pm Dean: Joseph Spence reminds me of the guitarist (or ukulele player?) who appeared frequently on LA's KPFK, an Asian(-American?) fellow, iirc, who often busked around downtown LA in the '80s, '90s. Can't remember his name...help?
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: That you think more of Charlie's abilities than I do.
	2:51pm Dean: I confess I acquired most of my W&W stuff as used records.
	2:51pm dan: @UM Listen to "The South's Gonna Do It Again" and tell me that Charlie Daniels isn't a great fiddle player.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: OK. I'll get back to you.
	2:54pm Gaylord Fields: I listen to "The South's Gonna Do It Again" and get nauseated. But that has nothing to do with CD's fiddling prowess or lack thereof.
	2:54pm chresti: Don't know, Dean. Sorry.
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Really enjoyed the show, @Uncle Michael. Glad to have listened. Just wish the KISS covers set hadn't been while I was on the subway!
	2:55pm Dean: Thanks, chresti.
	2:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks, UM, great stuff, great fun as usual...
	2:57pm chresti: Thanks UM!
	2:59pm Asheville Jon: Thanks UM!!!
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: Jon!
	3:01pm spodiodi: thanks, UM!
