Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 28, 2015 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

If you leave the cheese out of the pesto until actual use, it maintains better color (I am told).

I bought a 3 pound bag of peanuts last week thinking my kids could snack on them since they always love the free peanuts at 5guys.

One of my early jobs as a kid, 5YO or so, was to pick the peaches from the tree in our backyard, bag 'em up 20 or so to a bag, pack 'em in a red wagon, wheel the wagon around the neighborhood, and sell 'em for a quarter per bag. The neighbors might then reciprocate with samples of the resulting baked goodies.

The movie version of the jukebox musical "Mama Mia" is uneven, and pretty much just for hardcore Abba fans (such as I -- I endorse James's post of the Lester picture), but it had its moments. The rendering of "Winner" is one of them, ending with a helicopter shot that, by me, more than justified the cost of seeing it at the Zigfield.

Everyone liked it but me and Denise. I played well, but the handoffs from singing to playing were ROUGH. I didn't give it enough prep time. It was good enough for a gig or jam, but a spotlight set should be better than that

I also dug that Clay Pigeon show. I didn't know that Foghat tune was produced by Dave Edmunds. I couldn't chime in on his playlist b/c I was sweeping clay dust while at work. It truly was "Music to Dust By".

I only found out about "Journey" a few years ago when it was included on a comp called Garden Of Delights several years ago (an excellent comp, btw, if it's still in print) but I've loved Duncan Browne's "Wild Places" since it came out in the mid-'70s.
