Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 7, 2022 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.

Keith Jarrett is, aside from being an incredibly gifted artist, one of modern music's most enigmatic personalities. Unfortunately, for those of us who rever his talent and huge musical output, he suffers from nerve damage that makes playing the piano with both hands now nearly impossible. Joni Mitchell has similar problems.
