	12:23pm chas.: Dang! I'm overwhelmed by the research you must have put into this set, Uncle Michael.
	12:24pm John Lee: O-haw haw haw haw
	12:25pm Gary: One of my formative experiences was seeing John Lee Hooker play in a high school or grammar school auditorium in Gilroy, Calif., in the late 70s.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Hi tate, et al. @chas., It's what we do! Thanks for 'preciatin'.
	12:31pm northguineahills: typical ngh story: my friend's band opened for the Clean last night, so he put me on the list. There were three bands playing, and I got there right before his band went on. I thought they were the first band, so, afterwards, I went out to get a quick bite. I came back and my friend said, "where were you? the Clean just finished." Son of a!!! It still was a fun night, as I got to have beersies w/ all of the involved bands.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad it was still good times, NGH.
	12:36pm Jeff Golick: Well, they only came from New Zealand, right, @ngh? Ugh, though; I feel your pain.
	12:40pm northguineahills: It could be worse, I've shown up at shows before the week after they happened (and the week before), I'm temporally imbalanced.
	12:46pm Parq: i.chzbgr.com...
	12:48pm listener james from westwood: All danced up on this end!! Diggin' it.

	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, all! Hi Evan.
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Parq, hah!
	12:52pm listener james from westwood: Old shtuff always welcome. Ella all the more so.
	12:55pm PMD: Missed the first hour, darn.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'll start it again!
	12:58pm ndbob: great one here!
	12:59pm Mike East: please do, Uncle Michael. I spent the first hour dealing with crashing computer and dummies on the phone...turning up the speakers intermittently in between for a moment of sweet relief
	1:02pm PMD: wow. hell of a song. lyrics.
	1:02pm Doug Schulkind: @Gary Was John Lee playing the Garlic Festival? (Sorry, that's all the Gilroy I know.)
	1:02pm Uncle Michael: yeah
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: "yeah" was to PMD
	1:06pm listener james from westwood: Is today the computer-doomsday? Mine was giving me tsuris earlier today. I specifically ordered the tsuris-free model for this very reason.
	1:07pm listener james from westwood: w00t! VU 2day!
	1:08pm Jeff Golick: never not welcome
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: Lou Reed's high water mark. And he still had a long way to go. ::hides::
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: If I had a solid argument, I'd make it.
	1:13pm northguineahills: Hmmmm..., now I feel a need to dig up Zeitkrazer's "Metal Machine Music" for my weekly Friday night dance session.
	1:13pm Dean: You order the tsuris-free version, you get tsuris for free.
	1:15pm listener james from westwood: Dammit, I need to read the fine print more closely.
	1:15pm northguineahills: John Lee Hooker, the patron saint of GTDS radio.
	1:15pm PMD: Are you a vampire?
	1:16pm Pedro G.: Dang, stepped away and missed JLH. But that's why God invented the WFMU archives.
	1:16pm John Lee: Pow Pow Pow Pow
	1:17pm northguineahills: ok, how da fuq did I not know of Free Creek?!!
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: How is the VU on Cotillion (love that name) when mine is on Atlantic?
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: Tuba or euphonium?
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: It existed in the same release year on both labels...that's all I know.
	1:20pm northguineahills: The world needs more tuba, even the ranchero my neighbors blasts on the weekends.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: US ed on Cotillion: www.discogs.com...
	🛒 1:20pm Brian in UK: @Jeff, I loves Loaded. Doug Yule step up too.
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: UK ed on Atlantic: www.discogs.com...
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: it was my first VU. I sorta worked my way backward... Will always love it.
	🛒 1:22pm Brian in UK: @ngh Rob's premium from last year is TFM tooobah.
	🛒 1:23pm Brian in UK: @Jeff I remember singing Lonesome Cowboy Bill many times on a long motorbike journey.
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: @ngh: Gotta find a way to get this one spinning on D:O Radio: www.fmp-publishing.de...
	🛒 1:25pm Brian in UK: @Jeff you must. Ever heard Flight of the Bumblebee on Toobah.
	1:26pm PMD: I was all busy adding my own lyrics to New Blood and someone cut in.
	1:26pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: sounds like suicide by tuba.
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Here 'tis www.youtube.com...
	1:27pm Doug Schulkind: I have two Pinguin Moschner CDs (including one of all Jimi Hendrix covers!!). Out of the blue, Moschner sent them to me around 15 years ago.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Dueling Tubas.
	1:27pm northguineahills: tubacide!
	1:28pm northguineahills: I would never have recognized this as Gary Lucas.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: because of my playlist error, NGH!
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: thanks. The slow zoom in adds a nice bit of tension.
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: Show of hands...who would like Gary Lucas and Bill Frisell to collaborate?
	1:31pm Jeff Golick: Ok, please forgive my record geekery coming up here...
	1:32pm Jeff Golick: Re Cotillion: Cotillion was a subsidiary label of Atlantic operating from 1968 to 1986. Its first significant artist was Brook Benton, who had his biggest hit in 1970 with Rainy Night In Georgia and released the triple-LP Woodstock soundtrack album that summer. The label soon after signed progressive rock legends Emerson Lake & Palmer. By the mid-Seventies, the label began signing the likes of funk bands Mass Production and Slave, P-Funk splinter groups the Brides Of Funkenstein and the Horny Horns, the Temptations (briefly) and became the home of Sister Sledge, who had been moved from sister label Atco in 1978. The last active artists were Johnny Gill, Stacy Lattisaw, Slave and Sister Sledge, who were moved to the parent Atlantic label after it was deactivated. Lattisaw moved to Motown and Gill ultimately joined New Edition. Still used on certain reissues (i.e. the Woodstock soundtrack album and the Velvet Underground's Loaded album).
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, JG!
	🛒 1:34pm Brian in UK: I used to have a Stacy Lattisaw & Johnny Gill LP produced by Narada Michael Blenkinsop on Cotillion.
	🛒 1:36pm Brian in UK: Narada Michael Blenkinsop had a religious experience and moved to the north of England where he wore flat caps grew leeks and raced whippets and changed his name.
	1:36pm Jeff Golick: @UM: I can cut-and-paste with the best of 'em. Also, yes to that Lucas/Frisell collab.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: I hope you all have headphones for this one.
	1:37pm βrian: ⌘-a, ⌘-v
	1:37pm P-90: @ Jeff Golick: if that be "record geekery" than no apologies necessary. @ Gary Lucas + Bill Frisell: a natural, organic pairing. Cool idea.
	1:37pm northguineahills: Gary Lucas & Bill Frissell haven't collaborated? They have played w/ essentially the same musicians that each other has played w/ for 35 years.
	🛒 1:38pm Brian in UK: Almost in time with the gif.
	1:38pm Dean: They work together here: http://www.sumption.org/cddb/jazz/f5116813.html
	1:38pm βrian: Or rather, ⌘-a, ⌘-c, ⌘-v
	1:40pm P-90: Thnx for the link, Dean
	1:40pm Stanley: Speekin' atcha!
	🛒 1:41pm Brian in UK: Hey Stanley, get thee to a hostelry.
	1:41pm northguineahills: They have played together w/ Jeff Buckley and another time w/ John Zorn. (the best I can remember)
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Yes, thanks Dean!
	1:44pm Stanley: Hey Brian - will do as soon as the cauliflower cheese is done then its a couple of pints of Ol' Spiny and back with an appetite the size of a horse. But meanwhile its finger poppin' time
	🛒 1:46pm Brian in UK: Stanley, you sound like the text of a Peter Greenway film.
	1:47pm Stanley: ...but without the nudity. I'm afraid.
	1:48pm northguineahills: Well, this is different and dubby for Bill Callahan.
	1:55pm listener james from westwood: I thought that was Yat-Kha rattling my kitchenware!
	🛒 1:56pm Brian in UK: Throat singing dub, anyone?
	1:56pm northguineahills: Sounds like Tom Waits crash landed in Tuva.
	1:56pm Stanley: True to my word, I'm off. Thanks, UM. The rest of the show on the archive will be like a nice piece of pie in the fridge for later. Shlater peeps. (Brian, ngh - tomorrow?)
	1:57pm P-90: Nice! Next they should cover the Allman Brothers' "Ramblin Man"
	1:59pm PMD: Damn, missed it. Archives are great.
	🛒 2:00pm Brian in UK: I imagine Richard Fenyman would have liked Albert Kuvezin & Yat-Kha. Yes, Stanley.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Goodbye, Stanley...wherever you are.
	2:04pm Dean: Player is doing for cliché what The Fall did for repetition.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: so true a stitch in time gathers no moss
	2:06pm Mike East: @northguineahills - Bryce is playing your dance party music...not that I'm board hopping, just couldn't help noticing
	2:06pm Dean: Old Rolling Stones tune, right?
	2:07pm northguineahills: Damn, Fridays are hard, as UM and Bryce are some of my favorite djs.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: I'll stamp your hands so you can go out and come back in.
	2:08pm Dean: Love(d) Fotomaker.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm honored to be held in similar regard to Bryce.
	2:09pm northguineahills: ok, that is just weird. Glad I got my request!
	2:11pm Len: Blimey, I've missed some good stuff back there.
	2:11pm Bryce: i can't tell where i end an uncle michael begins.......
	2:12pm Oroboros: I don't. Hi Bryce!
	2:13pm Bryce: rerro!
	2:15pm PMD: ABBA!
	2:15pm ndbob: abba!!!!
	2:16pm Uncle Michael: RERRO!
	2:16pm listener james from westwood: Oh, I needed this today!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Apologies for the saxophone on this otherwise great single.
	2:18pm listener james from westwood: (As well as all 5 hours of fine GTDR programming I've savored thus far, but, ABBA!)
	2:19pm Doug Schulkind: I knew I should've spun that Abdul Meets ABBA disc. Damn.
	2:23pm Parq: In the 70s, sax solos were mandated by federal law.
	2:25pm Dean: Buddy of mine has a couple files of Gerry Rafferty's insufferable "Baker Street," rendered sufferable by layering multiple playbacks from an LP. One includes the LP played via eccentric holes. It's a glorious nightmare of sonic barf.
	2:26pm listener james from westwood: Ho-lee crap. Did they release this after that TV version of "HHG2TG"? Sounds like the same voice actor!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: I believe so, James.
	2:28pm listener james from westwood: "Here I am, brain the size of a planet..."
	2:28pm Doug Schulkind: Reason to hate the Chicago Cubs #573: talkingpointsmemo.com...
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: I know what that story is and I'm not sure I'm buying it, Doug. The version I read was speculative and poorly sourced.
	2:33pm listener james from westwood: Got-damn this is a fierce song.
	2:35pm Doug Schulkind: The Cubs aren't denying, Uncle Michael.
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Denying what, that a lack of manpower was the cause of the mis-rolled tarp?
	2:38pm Doug Schulkind: No the fact that the are using a diminished ground crew in order to avoid workers passing the 30-hour threshold and thus triggering Obamacare payouts.
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: OK, two distinct issues. And I'm with you on the labor practice.
	2:40pm listener james from westwood: Can someone write a script that stars all versions of this song thruout the FMU playlist-verse? I need this because of reasons.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: It's the implication that it caused the malfunction that brings it to light. We have no idea if the Cubs are in any way unique in this labor practice...which is shitty.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Good idea, James!
	2:42pm Parq: Awesome Tom Jones production number of "Ghost" on his late-60s variety show, recasting the cowboys as bikers.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: I love the TJ version so much.
	2:48pm Parq: Matt's 2-4, by the way.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: That's what my cheat sheet says, Parq. It just looked weird and it messed me up! I'll correct.
	2:53pm listener james from westwood: My fantasy WFMU account feature would be to actually play all one's starred items like a regular show playlist. But for everything I can already do w WFMU online or via mobile, I honestly can't quibble.
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: It's been great hanging out with you today. Thanks everyone.
	2:58pm Tate: Good show as usual now on to the Cubs
	2:58pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:58pm listener james from westwood: UM, I could as easily use that star-all script on this all-star closing tune, too! Wonderful program and always a pleasure each Friday. Thanks!!
	2:58pm P-90: Thnx UM!
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Bob.
	2:59pm John Lee: How How How How
	2:59pm Parq: Tom Paxton once told a 70s Cambridge MA audience that he knew he'd made it when he heard "Last Thing" introduced by another performer as an old Scottish folk song.
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: 'hanx, Uncle Michael! Have a great weekend!
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Great story, Parq. Bye, all.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 22, 2014

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.

	12:46pm Parq: i.chzbgr.com...
	12:48pm listener james from westwood: All danced up on this end!! Diggin' it.

	12:55pm PMD: Missed the first hour, darn.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'll start it again!
	12:58pm ndbob: great one here!
	12:59pm Mike East: please do, Uncle Michael. I spent the first hour dealing with crashing computer and dummies on the phone...turning up the speakers intermittently in between for a moment of sweet relief
	1:02pm PMD: wow. hell of a song. lyrics.
	1:02pm Doug Schulkind: @Gary Was John Lee playing the Garlic Festival? (Sorry, that's all the Gilroy I know.)
	1:02pm Uncle Michael: yeah
	1:05pm Uncle Michael: "yeah" was to PMD
	1:06pm listener james from westwood: Is today the computer-doomsday? Mine was giving me tsuris earlier today. I specifically ordered the tsuris-free model for this very reason.
	1:07pm listener james from westwood: w00t! VU 2day!
	1:08pm Jeff Golick: never not welcome
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: Lou Reed's high water mark. And he still had a long way to go. ::hides::
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: If I had a solid argument, I'd make it.
	1:13pm northguineahills: Hmmmm..., now I feel a need to dig up Zeitkrazer's "Metal Machine Music" for my weekly Friday night dance session.
	1:13pm Dean: You order the tsuris-free version, you get tsuris for free.
	1:15pm listener james from westwood: Dammit, I need to read the fine print more closely.
	1:15pm northguineahills: John Lee Hooker, the patron saint of GTDS radio.
	1:15pm PMD: Are you a vampire?
	1:16pm Pedro G.: Dang, stepped away and missed JLH. But that's why God invented the WFMU archives.
	1:16pm John Lee: Pow Pow Pow Pow
	1:17pm northguineahills: ok, how da fuq did I not know of Free Creek?!!
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: How is the VU on Cotillion (love that name) when mine is on Atlantic?
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: Tuba or euphonium?
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: It existed in the same release year on both labels...that's all I know.
	1:20pm northguineahills: The world needs more tuba, even the ranchero my neighbors blasts on the weekends.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: US ed on Cotillion: www.discogs.com...
	🛒 1:20pm Brian in UK: @Jeff, I loves Loaded. Doug Yule step up too.
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: UK ed on Atlantic: www.discogs.com...
	1:21pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: it was my first VU. I sorta worked my way backward... Will always love it.
	🛒 1:22pm Brian in UK: @ngh Rob's premium from last year is TFM tooobah.
	🛒 1:23pm Brian in UK: @Jeff I remember singing Lonesome Cowboy Bill many times on a long motorbike journey.
	1:24pm Jeff Golick: @ngh: Gotta find a way to get this one spinning on D:O Radio: www.fmp-publishing.de...
	🛒 1:25pm Brian in UK: @Jeff you must. Ever heard Flight of the Bumblebee on Toobah.
	1:26pm PMD: I was all busy adding my own lyrics to New Blood and someone cut in.
	1:26pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: sounds like suicide by tuba.
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Here 'tis www.youtube.com...
	1:27pm Doug Schulkind: I have two Pinguin Moschner CDs (including one of all Jimi Hendrix covers!!). Out of the blue, Moschner sent them to me around 15 years ago.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Dueling Tubas.
	1:27pm northguineahills: tubacide!
	1:28pm northguineahills: I would never have recognized this as Gary Lucas.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: because of my playlist error, NGH!
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: @Brian: thanks. The slow zoom in adds a nice bit of tension.
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: Show of hands...who would like Gary Lucas and Bill Frisell to collaborate?
	1:31pm Jeff Golick: Ok, please forgive my record geekery coming up here...
	1:32pm Jeff Golick: Re Cotillion: Cotillion was a subsidiary label of Atlantic operating from 1968 to 1986. Its first significant artist was Brook Benton, who had his biggest hit in 1970 with Rainy Night In Georgia and released the triple-LP Woodstock soundtrack album that summer. The label soon after signed progressive rock legends Emerson Lake & Palmer. By the mid-Seventies, the label began signing the likes of funk bands Mass Production and Slave, P-Funk splinter groups the Brides Of Funkenstein and the Horny Horns, the Temptations (briefly) and became the home of Sister Sledge, who had been moved from sister label Atco in 1978. The last active artists were Johnny Gill, Stacy Lattisaw, Slave and Sister Sledge, who were moved to the parent Atlantic label after it was deactivated. Lattisaw moved to Motown and Gill ultimately joined New Edition. Still used on certain reissues (i.e. the Woodstock soundtrack album and the Velvet Underground's Loaded album).
	1:33pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, JG!
	🛒 1:34pm Brian in UK: I used to have a Stacy Lattisaw & Johnny Gill LP produced by Narada Michael Blenkinsop on Cotillion.
	🛒 1:36pm Brian in UK: Narada Michael Blenkinsop had a religious experience and moved to the north of England where he wore flat caps grew leeks and raced whippets and changed his name.
	1:36pm Jeff Golick: @UM: I can cut-and-paste with the best of 'em. Also, yes to that Lucas/Frisell collab.
	1:36pm Uncle Michael: I hope you all have headphones for this one.
	1:37pm βrian: ⌘-a, ⌘-v
	1:37pm P-90: @ Jeff Golick: if that be "record geekery" than no apologies necessary. @ Gary Lucas + Bill Frisell: a natural, organic pairing. Cool idea.
	1:37pm northguineahills: Gary Lucas & Bill Frissell haven't collaborated? They have played w/ essentially the same musicians that each other has played w/ for 35 years.
	🛒 1:38pm Brian in UK: Almost in time with the gif.
	1:38pm Dean: They work together here: http://www.sumption.org/cddb/jazz/f5116813.html
	1:38pm βrian: Or rather, ⌘-a, ⌘-c, ⌘-v
	1:40pm P-90: Thnx for the link, Dean
	1:40pm Stanley: Speekin' atcha!
	🛒 1:41pm Brian in UK: Hey Stanley, get thee to a hostelry.
	1:41pm northguineahills: They have played together w/ Jeff Buckley and another time w/ John Zorn. (the best I can remember)
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Yes, thanks Dean!
	1:44pm Stanley: Hey Brian - will do as soon as the cauliflower cheese is done then its a couple of pints of Ol' Spiny and back with an appetite the size of a horse. But meanwhile its finger poppin' time
	🛒 1:46pm Brian in UK: Stanley, you sound like the text of a Peter Greenway film.
	1:47pm Stanley: ...but without the nudity. I'm afraid.
	1:48pm northguineahills: Well, this is different and dubby for Bill Callahan.
	1:55pm listener james from westwood: I thought that was Yat-Kha rattling my kitchenware!
	🛒 1:56pm Brian in UK: Throat singing dub, anyone?
	1:56pm northguineahills: Sounds like Tom Waits crash landed in Tuva.
	1:56pm Stanley: True to my word, I'm off. Thanks, UM. The rest of the show on the archive will be like a nice piece of pie in the fridge for later. Shlater peeps. (Brian, ngh - tomorrow?)
	1:57pm P-90: Nice! Next they should cover the Allman Brothers' "Ramblin Man"
	1:59pm PMD: Damn, missed it. Archives are great.
	🛒 2:00pm Brian in UK: I imagine Richard Fenyman would have liked Albert Kuvezin & Yat-Kha. Yes, Stanley.
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Goodbye, Stanley...wherever you are.
	2:04pm Dean: Player is doing for cliché what The Fall did for repetition.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: so true a stitch in time gathers no moss
	2:06pm Mike East: @northguineahills - Bryce is playing your dance party music...not that I'm board hopping, just couldn't help noticing
	2:06pm Dean: Old Rolling Stones tune, right?
	2:07pm northguineahills: Damn, Fridays are hard, as UM and Bryce are some of my favorite djs.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: I'll stamp your hands so you can go out and come back in.
	2:08pm Dean: Love(d) Fotomaker.
	2:08pm Uncle Michael: I'm honored to be held in similar regard to Bryce.
	2:09pm northguineahills: ok, that is just weird. Glad I got my request!
	2:11pm Len: Blimey, I've missed some good stuff back there.
	2:11pm Bryce: i can't tell where i end an uncle michael begins.......
	2:12pm Oroboros: I don't. Hi Bryce!
	2:13pm Bryce: rerro!
	2:15pm PMD: ABBA!
	2:15pm ndbob: abba!!!!
	2:16pm Uncle Michael: RERRO!
	2:16pm listener james from westwood: Oh, I needed this today!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Apologies for the saxophone on this otherwise great single.
	2:18pm listener james from westwood: (As well as all 5 hours of fine GTDR programming I've savored thus far, but, ABBA!)
	2:19pm Doug Schulkind: I knew I should've spun that Abdul Meets ABBA disc. Damn.
	2:23pm Parq: In the 70s, sax solos were mandated by federal law.
	2:25pm Dean: Buddy of mine has a couple files of Gerry Rafferty's insufferable "Baker Street," rendered sufferable by layering multiple playbacks from an LP. One includes the LP played via eccentric holes. It's a glorious nightmare of sonic barf.
	2:26pm listener james from westwood: Ho-lee crap. Did they release this after that TV version of "HHG2TG"? Sounds like the same voice actor!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: I believe so, James.
	2:28pm listener james from westwood: "Here I am, brain the size of a planet..."
	2:28pm Doug Schulkind: Reason to hate the Chicago Cubs #573: talkingpointsmemo.com...
	2:29pm Uncle Michael: I know what that story is and I'm not sure I'm buying it, Doug. The version I read was speculative and poorly sourced.
	2:33pm listener james from westwood: Got-damn this is a fierce song.
	2:35pm Doug Schulkind: The Cubs aren't denying, Uncle Michael.
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: Denying what, that a lack of manpower was the cause of the mis-rolled tarp?
	2:38pm Doug Schulkind: No the fact that the are using a diminished ground crew in order to avoid workers passing the 30-hour threshold and thus triggering Obamacare payouts.
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: OK, two distinct issues. And I'm with you on the labor practice.
	2:40pm listener james from westwood: Can someone write a script that stars all versions of this song thruout the FMU playlist-verse? I need this because of reasons.
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: It's the implication that it caused the malfunction that brings it to light. We have no idea if the Cubs are in any way unique in this labor practice...which is shitty.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Good idea, James!
	2:42pm Parq: Awesome Tom Jones production number of "Ghost" on his late-60s variety show, recasting the cowboys as bikers.
	2:47pm Uncle Michael: I love the TJ version so much.
	2:48pm Parq: Matt's 2-4, by the way.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: That's what my cheat sheet says, Parq. It just looked weird and it messed me up! I'll correct.
	2:53pm listener james from westwood: My fantasy WFMU account feature would be to actually play all one's starred items like a regular show playlist. But for everything I can already do w WFMU online or via mobile, I honestly can't quibble.
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: It's been great hanging out with you today. Thanks everyone.
	2:58pm Tate: Good show as usual now on to the Cubs
	2:58pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:58pm listener james from westwood: UM, I could as easily use that star-all script on this all-star closing tune, too! Wonderful program and always a pleasure each Friday. Thanks!!
	2:58pm P-90: Thnx UM!
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Bob.
	2:59pm John Lee: How How How How
	2:59pm Parq: Tom Paxton once told a 70s Cambridge MA audience that he knew he'd made it when he heard "Last Thing" introduced by another performer as an old Scottish folk song.
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: 'hanx, Uncle Michael! Have a great weekend!
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Great story, Parq. Bye, all.
