	12:22pm V Priceless: Dating Game theme! Woo!
	12:22pm Lizardner Dave: Loving this show so far.
	12:23pm Sue P.: I'd love to have Whipped Cream on 7"! Soundz fantastic.
	12:24pm northguineahills: I still think of Evolution Control Committee's mashup of Whipped Cream and By the Time I Get to Arizona every time I hear Whipped Cream.
	12:25pm Wilde: Sounds like Under The Double Eagle
	12:25pm Doug Schulkind: I think we should petition the Pope to canonize him a Toussaint!
	12:26pm ndbob: The original Whipped Cream was done by the Stokes, an NO group
	12:26pm rascal yammers: this is special... thanks!
	12:28pm Lane Gray: I logged in late. Trying to sleep, with mixed results. The Amazing Rhythm Aces did a good version of Lipstick Traces
	12:30pm Lane Gray: Is there a level that gets UM-Swag? Like a slice of pie?
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: There is a level that gets you my DJ premium but you probably already have that!
	12:32pm Lane Gray: So no new swag, just straight groveling? We're still down for it.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: The groveling is over till next week.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: The t-shirts are new and they are beautiful.
	12:34pm Parq: That's neat about Naomi Neville. I never knew about that. Mrs. Parq and I got to see a nice, understated solo piano set by Toussaint in NYC years ago. Feels like it must have been the 80s.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: I wish I could catch a Toussaint show.
	12:37pm Lane Gray: Done. Even already PayPalled the money.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: You're a prince among michael jacksons, Lane.
	12:39pm Lane Gray: And I'm getting the chipmunk T-shirt. What's this about the mascot contest? Pimpin says he's up for it.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: You'll have to read up and enter him!
	12:43pm PKNY: @UM - do they list personnel on that 'The Allen Toussaint Songbook'? Sure sounded like the Meters on that Don Covay track.
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: I don't have the notes handy.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: You are correct!
	12:53pm Artie Haywire: i do feel good, thanks.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad to hear that Artie.
	12:58pm PKNY: Don' t know if the Toussaint playlist is set for today, but if you have Betty Harris' "There's a Break in the Road" handy, it would make my day.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: I'm poking around!
	1:04pm northguineahills: Van Dyke Parks!
	1:04pm PKNY: 2 thumbs up! Either way, I'm digging all of the Toussaint goodies today!
	1:05pm Guido from Cologne: hello Michael & everyone!
	1:08pm Doug Schulkind: Guido's here!
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Hey Guido!
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: I hear me some Dr. John on this Ringo.
	1:11pm Dean: Dr. John sings the Curious George cartoon theme song.
	1:11pm PKNY: Awwwwww yeah! Thank you, sir!
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: Hey, it was a great suggestion!
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: If I was a betting man, I'd guess "Meters" for this one too. I hear George Porter Jr.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Yep.
	1:14pm PKNY: Oh yeah! There's some argument whether it's Ziggy on drums, or James Black. But whoever it is, much props to Mr. Toussaint for always giving the drummer some.
	1:14pm Parq: Glad you were able to find that killer Betty Harris side.
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: I had it in the digital libarry.
	1:22pm Jeff Golick: I would just like to say: Ziggy Modeliste.
	1:23pm Alex In Illinois: I have not been following along in the comments today, because I have been rather busy working. I have been listening though since Give the Drummer Some started.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Hey Jeff...SAY IT! Hi Alex!
	1:27pm Jeff Golick: Does Ziggy's last name properly have three or four syllables?
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: I always hear three.
	1:30pm PKNY: There was (is?) a live version of the Pointer Sisters doing this floating around the YouTubes, and they really let the drummer loose on it.
	1:31pm doctorjazz: great show, loving it!
	1:31pm Parq: There was a great Pointers live album in the 70s, recorded in SF with a full orchestra. Some of the lushest, most satisfying charts I've ever heard.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: I'll look for that PKNY. Thanks Doc!
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: I love faked live records.
	1:35pm Dean: Heard Brinsley Schwarz (the man, not the band) two weekends ago with Graham Parker. Great show. Swell guy.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: I'd LOVE to catch that tour...but it won't happen.
	1:38pm Dean: Ry Cooder playing on this Rufus? This track sounds like the best stuff on Bop till You Drop, which featured some tasty work by Chaka Khan.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: I don't believe so Dean (could be wrong). Rufus was just a little band from Chicago then...and they held their own without help.
	1:42pm chromaphone: I listened to Everything I Do Gonna Be Funky driving to work yesterday morning on the What It Is comp. Great show!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Thanks chromaphone!
	1:47pm Jeff Golick: I'm planning a "faux fans" show for an upcoming Magic Hour show, and there's a different Brinsley Schwarz song on my playlist...
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: Excellent Jeff. My breath is bated.
	1:48pm Jeff Golick: ...it will assuredly not come close to your level, UM, but it might be a hoot and holler.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: Oh please!
	1:53pm Jeff Golick: Love this song, but have only known the Etta James version!
	1:55pm Guido from Cologne: Really some fine versions here in this show! Never had an idea they exist ...
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: It was a lot of fun to pull together.
	2:00pm Mike East: Dr John was in the studio this week with the Bill Withers tribute. I printed out some lyrics for him.
	2:00pm doctorjazz: The good doctor!
	2:01pm Dean: @Mike East: If they were the lyrics to "Happy Birthday," rest assured that there is no risk of liability for copyright infringement.
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: I's be struck dumb...so would my printer.
	2:04pm listener james from westwood: Good call on this Palmer!
	2:04pm Mike East: truth be told, I printed it for an intern, but it was FOR him. they interviewed him in the office behind mine...and I stopped answering phones for a couple minutes. He's the man.
	2:05pm johnk77: great work selecter um i have seen 8 of these artists live luckily i saw the band twice @mikeeast mac rebennack was good friends w/bonnie raitt back in the day in doc pomus book lonely avenue mac is portrayed as troubled
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: I haven't played Bonnie....yet!
	2:06pm Dean: Wait, who was singing on the Johnny Winter tune?
	2:08pm Dean: I dunno, Power Station kinda grows on me.
	2:08pm Dean: I thought I was hearing Bonnie.
	2:09pm johnk77: until rober palmer turned into michael desbarres michael if u r reading this no disrespect
	2:10pm Peter Nelson: Damn...looks like I just missed a great set 'cos I was on the phone. Love that Robert Palmer album.
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: good call, johnk77
	2:10pm chromaphone: Yea Dean, I thought that was her too.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: The Winter album: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:11pm Mike East: I was expecting Bonnie Raitt to be a part of that tribute this week too, but I didn't see her.
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: I love Bill Withers.
	2:16pm chromaphone: Recently saw that doc about the concert at the Ali/Foreman fight and Withers was incredible on a solo tune.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Jerry covering Toussaint, tasty!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Jerry's band on this: Nicky Hopkins - piano John Kahn - bass, Synthesizer, vibraphone Ron Tutt - drums Larry Knechtel - fender rhodes Donna Jean Godchaux - background vocals
	2:20pm Santos L Halper: Jer! Was listening recently to a nice live version of this ( from Don't Let Go -'76)
	2:20pm Parq: I'm hearing an organ on this. Reminds me of his work with Merl Saunders. Kahn, I'm guessing?
	2:21pm johnk77: @um more great selecting @lane amazing rthythm aces killer live mid seventies jerry sometimes great on stage mess offstage marin county seventies nicky hopkins great on and off
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: I'm thinking so. I have the CD booklet stored far away.
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Jerry's credited as playing the organ on this album himself.
	2:23pm johnk77: only really met nicky once sleeping lady fairfax
	2:25pm johnk77: best garcia live i saw in this period gamh sf chris hayes on second guitar probaby merl + others
	2:26pm Dean: As I've mentioned before, I attended every single GD show, but I've never heard Garcia on his own.
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Every single one?
	🛒 2:28pm Brian in UK: Quyck hello Uncle, going out for birthday meal with twin daughters & rest of family. I is one lucky man.
	2:28pm Dean: Almost missed the last one in Chicago. Had to call in sick at work. But yeah. Every single Grateful Dead show ever.
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: Have a good time, Brian! happy birthday!
	🛒 2:29pm Brian in UK: Man, I love that first Robert Palmer album played it last week.
	🛒 2:30pm Brian in UK: THe first three tracks all roll into one.
	2:31pm johnk77: @mike east is probably helping one of trey's other bands right this minute=>
	2:31pm chromaphone: I saw a single one.
	2:31pm Dean: Yep, chromahpone, I was there, too.
	🛒 2:32pm Brian in UK: Sorry Uncle it is daughters bday but I will take it.
	2:33pm chromaphone: Do you remember how bad Phil's singing was Dean?
	🛒 2:33pm Brian in UK: Good weekend, all.
	2:33pm Dean: It was an odd night.
	2:33pm johnk77: bonnie one of the greatest evaluators of writers and players
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: This gentleman is in Bonnie's touring band.
	2:39pm johnk77: this sometimes gentleman is one of bonnie's many ex-monitor mixers:>
	2:40pm johnk77: i have board cassettes of bonnie doing this live
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: is she fussy?
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: it's long been a staple of her live show
	2:41pm doctorjazz: Never heard this Lowell George cover, always been curious about this album, fine cover.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Lowell's one solo album is excellent...just excellent.
	🛒 2:43pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Lowell George. Now he's a dead musician I genuinely miss - he'd still be doing great stuff unlike, say, Jim Morrison.
	2:43pm doctorjazz: He can sing.
	2:44pm johnk77: @um she kept the monitors simple back in the day her lead vocal, drums, harmony vocals she was easy if u could get her sound lowell was very interesting but 24/7 blow+tequila was punishing
	2:44pm chromaphone: Is that Little Feat behind her?
	2:45pm P-90: Hi. Yes ,I think of Bonnie as being a little comparable to Emmylou Harris, she's astute at performing, writing producing, and has that knack for "evaluating" other writers and players, like you say, @johnk77.
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: behind whom, chromaphone?
	2:46pm johnk77: nicolette was very nice
	2:46pm chromaphone: Nicolette. I guess prbly not but the piano made me think of them.
	2:47pm P-90: ...then there's the Nicolette Larson saga
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Hard to say, I don't have the liner notes. I know Ted Templeman produced that album.
	2:48pm doctorjazz: Now this Zevon album (and track) is fabulous!
	🛒 2:48pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: "A Certain Girl" is my favorite Warren Zevon song! Thanks.
	2:49pm P-90: I miss Nicolette. Zevon too. They both burned brightly and far too briefly.
	2:49pm Parq: This Zevon track was a high point of what I thought was a pretty disappointing album. His original stuff just didn't have the zest of the first couple of albums.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: I think her name is "Lizzie."
	2:50pm Parq: Props to Dr. Jazz and my dissent is offered respectfully.
	2:50pm johnk77: ted+lenny came out on some little feat dates
	2:50pm chromaphone: Bill Payne I was right!: www.discogs.com...
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: good call chromaphone
	2:56pm Santos L Halper: Great show UM! BTW I had a great time at Wrigley Sunday, watching Arrieta dominate under the blood moon...
	2:57pm P-90: Heard the rumor that Helen has been placed in supervised living with Alzheimer's symptoms?
	2:57pm doctorjazz: No prob, @parq, but do like the songs on it. "Gorrilla, You're a Desperado", "Play It All Night Long", "Jennie Needs a Shooter", and the tune played, classic Zevon.
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Wow Santos! Lucky! That's a shame to hear P-90
	2:58pm Guido from Cologne: loved the show1 thank you Michael!
	2:58pm Parq: Uncle M, this show was one for the books. Thanks for all the effort and all the good vibes.
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Guido!
	2:59pm Webhamster Henry: This _is_ the Devo version, I was just wondering if this was it.
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: Just three more songs...hang with me...
	2:59pm listener james from westwood: In my head, the end credits of the film "Heavy Metal" are now scrolling up the screen to this Devo.
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: hah!
	3:00pm doctorjazz: Great show! Thanks, UM!
	3:01pm Uncle Michael: thanks Doctor J.
	3:02pm P-90: A treat to catch the last hour today live, will get the rest on the archive. Thanks, and have a great weekend, @Pufnstuf Dude!
	3:02pm johnk77: @um fantastic;>
	3:03pm Guido from Cologne: i have another early 70ies Irma Thomas LP on fungus with some good Toussant version on it
	3:03pm Lewis: joining the show already in progress….
	3:03pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	3:04pm P-90: ...and I'd rather imagine just where Bratsk is than google it.
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thank s to all of you for listening today...remember the thing I'm not talking about!
	3:05pm P-90: Oh, yeah- that Important Silent Thing
	3:05pm Uncle Michael: One. More. Song.
	3:06pm Parq: Take your time, man. This is .. well, it sure damn is.
	3:08pm doctorjazz: Saw EC this summer, he can still bring it!
	3:08pm J-Dub: I feel like there should be a special sound effect that gets played whenever we go into Hinky Dinky Overtime.
	3:08pm Uncle Michael: I saw him too...yes he can.
	3:10pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, man! On to the postseason! (Seeing the Mets tmw, though, if not rained out...)
	3:10pm listener james from westwood: I love the HDT Highway! Clean restrooms, no speed traps, and tolls only once (or twice ... shhh) a year! Many thanks, Uncle Michael, and safe skies and seas, all!
	🛒 3:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw EC open for Dylan - didn't even know he was on the bill! Elvis was acoustic - which was clever, as reduced pressure for Bob to do so. Elvis was great - as were Bob & band (good period, good band).
	3:13pm Doug Schulkind: Lets go Metspiratesoriolesnotyankees!
	🛒 3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...good night.) - Thx UM !
	3:14pm doctorjazz: Saw him open for Steely Dan, he smoked them, Attractions style band.
	3:14pm P-90: We'll all pray for Helen Reddy and the Cubbies.
	3:15pm Uncle Michael: Thanks one and all!
	🛒 3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - nice doc !...

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from October 2, 2015

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.

	12:22pm Lizardner Dave: Loving this show so far.
	12:23pm Sue P.: I'd love to have Whipped Cream on 7"! Soundz fantastic.
	12:24pm northguineahills: I still think of Evolution Control Committee's mashup of Whipped Cream and By the Time I Get to Arizona every time I hear Whipped Cream.
	12:25pm Wilde: Sounds like Under The Double Eagle
	12:25pm Doug Schulkind: I think we should petition the Pope to canonize him a Toussaint!
	12:26pm ndbob: The original Whipped Cream was done by the Stokes, an NO group
	12:26pm rascal yammers: this is special... thanks!
	12:28pm Lane Gray: I logged in late. Trying to sleep, with mixed results. The Amazing Rhythm Aces did a good version of Lipstick Traces
	12:30pm Lane Gray: Is there a level that gets UM-Swag? Like a slice of pie?
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: There is a level that gets you my DJ premium but you probably already have that!
	12:32pm Lane Gray: So no new swag, just straight groveling? We're still down for it.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: The groveling is over till next week.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: The t-shirts are new and they are beautiful.
	12:34pm Parq: That's neat about Naomi Neville. I never knew about that. Mrs. Parq and I got to see a nice, understated solo piano set by Toussaint in NYC years ago. Feels like it must have been the 80s.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: I wish I could catch a Toussaint show.
	12:37pm Lane Gray: Done. Even already PayPalled the money.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: You're a prince among michael jacksons, Lane.
	12:39pm Lane Gray: And I'm getting the chipmunk T-shirt. What's this about the mascot contest? Pimpin says he's up for it.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: You'll have to read up and enter him!
	12:43pm PKNY: @UM - do they list personnel on that 'The Allen Toussaint Songbook'? Sure sounded like the Meters on that Don Covay track.
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: I don't have the notes handy.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: You are correct!
	12:53pm Artie Haywire: i do feel good, thanks.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad to hear that Artie.
	12:58pm PKNY: Don' t know if the Toussaint playlist is set for today, but if you have Betty Harris' "There's a Break in the Road" handy, it would make my day.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: I'm poking around!
	1:04pm northguineahills: Van Dyke Parks!
	1:04pm PKNY: 2 thumbs up! Either way, I'm digging all of the Toussaint goodies today!
	1:05pm Guido from Cologne: hello Michael & everyone!
	1:08pm Doug Schulkind: Guido's here!
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: Hey Guido!
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: I hear me some Dr. John on this Ringo.
	1:11pm Dean: Dr. John sings the Curious George cartoon theme song.
	1:11pm PKNY: Awwwwww yeah! Thank you, sir!
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: Hey, it was a great suggestion!
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: If I was a betting man, I'd guess "Meters" for this one too. I hear George Porter Jr.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Yep.
	1:14pm PKNY: Oh yeah! There's some argument whether it's Ziggy on drums, or James Black. But whoever it is, much props to Mr. Toussaint for always giving the drummer some.
	1:14pm Parq: Glad you were able to find that killer Betty Harris side.
	1:16pm Uncle Michael: I had it in the digital libarry.
	1:22pm Jeff Golick: I would just like to say: Ziggy Modeliste.
	1:23pm Alex In Illinois: I have not been following along in the comments today, because I have been rather busy working. I have been listening though since Give the Drummer Some started.
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Hey Jeff...SAY IT! Hi Alex!
	1:27pm Jeff Golick: Does Ziggy's last name properly have three or four syllables?
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: I always hear three.
	1:30pm PKNY: There was (is?) a live version of the Pointer Sisters doing this floating around the YouTubes, and they really let the drummer loose on it.
	1:31pm doctorjazz: great show, loving it!
	1:31pm Parq: There was a great Pointers live album in the 70s, recorded in SF with a full orchestra. Some of the lushest, most satisfying charts I've ever heard.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: I'll look for that PKNY. Thanks Doc!
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: I love faked live records.
	1:35pm Dean: Heard Brinsley Schwarz (the man, not the band) two weekends ago with Graham Parker. Great show. Swell guy.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: I'd LOVE to catch that tour...but it won't happen.
	1:38pm Dean: Ry Cooder playing on this Rufus? This track sounds like the best stuff on Bop till You Drop, which featured some tasty work by Chaka Khan.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: I don't believe so Dean (could be wrong). Rufus was just a little band from Chicago then...and they held their own without help.
	1:42pm chromaphone: I listened to Everything I Do Gonna Be Funky driving to work yesterday morning on the What It Is comp. Great show!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Thanks chromaphone!
	1:47pm Jeff Golick: I'm planning a "faux fans" show for an upcoming Magic Hour show, and there's a different Brinsley Schwarz song on my playlist...
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: Excellent Jeff. My breath is bated.
	1:48pm Jeff Golick: ...it will assuredly not come close to your level, UM, but it might be a hoot and holler.
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: Oh please!
	1:53pm Jeff Golick: Love this song, but have only known the Etta James version!
	1:55pm Guido from Cologne: Really some fine versions here in this show! Never had an idea they exist ...
	1:56pm Uncle Michael: It was a lot of fun to pull together.
	2:00pm Mike East: Dr John was in the studio this week with the Bill Withers tribute. I printed out some lyrics for him.
	2:00pm doctorjazz: The good doctor!
	2:01pm Dean: @Mike East: If they were the lyrics to "Happy Birthday," rest assured that there is no risk of liability for copyright infringement.
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: I's be struck dumb...so would my printer.
	2:04pm listener james from westwood: Good call on this Palmer!
	2:04pm Mike East: truth be told, I printed it for an intern, but it was FOR him. they interviewed him in the office behind mine...and I stopped answering phones for a couple minutes. He's the man.
	2:05pm johnk77: great work selecter um i have seen 8 of these artists live luckily i saw the band twice @mikeeast mac rebennack was good friends w/bonnie raitt back in the day in doc pomus book lonely avenue mac is portrayed as troubled
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: I haven't played Bonnie....yet!
	2:06pm Dean: Wait, who was singing on the Johnny Winter tune?
	2:08pm Dean: I dunno, Power Station kinda grows on me.
	2:08pm Dean: I thought I was hearing Bonnie.
	2:09pm johnk77: until rober palmer turned into michael desbarres michael if u r reading this no disrespect
	2:10pm Peter Nelson: Damn...looks like I just missed a great set 'cos I was on the phone. Love that Robert Palmer album.
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: good call, johnk77
	2:10pm chromaphone: Yea Dean, I thought that was her too.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: The Winter album: en.wikipedia.org...
	2:11pm Mike East: I was expecting Bonnie Raitt to be a part of that tribute this week too, but I didn't see her.
	2:12pm Uncle Michael: I love Bill Withers.
	2:16pm chromaphone: Recently saw that doc about the concert at the Ali/Foreman fight and Withers was incredible on a solo tune.
	2:18pm doctorjazz: Jerry covering Toussaint, tasty!
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: Jerry's band on this: Nicky Hopkins - piano John Kahn - bass, Synthesizer, vibraphone Ron Tutt - drums Larry Knechtel - fender rhodes Donna Jean Godchaux - background vocals
	2:20pm Santos L Halper: Jer! Was listening recently to a nice live version of this ( from Don't Let Go -'76)
	2:20pm Parq: I'm hearing an organ on this. Reminds me of his work with Merl Saunders. Kahn, I'm guessing?
	2:21pm johnk77: @um more great selecting @lane amazing rthythm aces killer live mid seventies jerry sometimes great on stage mess offstage marin county seventies nicky hopkins great on and off
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: I'm thinking so. I have the CD booklet stored far away.
	2:23pm Uncle Michael: Jerry's credited as playing the organ on this album himself.
	2:23pm johnk77: only really met nicky once sleeping lady fairfax
	2:25pm johnk77: best garcia live i saw in this period gamh sf chris hayes on second guitar probaby merl + others
	2:26pm Dean: As I've mentioned before, I attended every single GD show, but I've never heard Garcia on his own.
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: Every single one?
	🛒 2:28pm Brian in UK: Quyck hello Uncle, going out for birthday meal with twin daughters & rest of family. I is one lucky man.
	2:28pm Dean: Almost missed the last one in Chicago. Had to call in sick at work. But yeah. Every single Grateful Dead show ever.
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: Have a good time, Brian! happy birthday!
	🛒 2:29pm Brian in UK: Man, I love that first Robert Palmer album played it last week.
	🛒 2:30pm Brian in UK: THe first three tracks all roll into one.
	2:31pm johnk77: @mike east is probably helping one of trey's other bands right this minute=>
	2:31pm chromaphone: I saw a single one.
	2:31pm Dean: Yep, chromahpone, I was there, too.
	🛒 2:32pm Brian in UK: Sorry Uncle it is daughters bday but I will take it.
	2:33pm chromaphone: Do you remember how bad Phil's singing was Dean?
	🛒 2:33pm Brian in UK: Good weekend, all.
	2:33pm Dean: It was an odd night.
	2:33pm johnk77: bonnie one of the greatest evaluators of writers and players
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: This gentleman is in Bonnie's touring band.
	2:39pm johnk77: this sometimes gentleman is one of bonnie's many ex-monitor mixers:>
	2:40pm johnk77: i have board cassettes of bonnie doing this live
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: is she fussy?
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: it's long been a staple of her live show
	2:41pm doctorjazz: Never heard this Lowell George cover, always been curious about this album, fine cover.
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: Lowell's one solo album is excellent...just excellent.
	🛒 2:43pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Lowell George. Now he's a dead musician I genuinely miss - he'd still be doing great stuff unlike, say, Jim Morrison.
	2:43pm doctorjazz: He can sing.
	2:44pm johnk77: @um she kept the monitors simple back in the day her lead vocal, drums, harmony vocals she was easy if u could get her sound lowell was very interesting but 24/7 blow+tequila was punishing
	2:44pm chromaphone: Is that Little Feat behind her?
	2:45pm P-90: Hi. Yes ,I think of Bonnie as being a little comparable to Emmylou Harris, she's astute at performing, writing producing, and has that knack for "evaluating" other writers and players, like you say, @johnk77.
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: behind whom, chromaphone?
	2:46pm johnk77: nicolette was very nice
	2:46pm chromaphone: Nicolette. I guess prbly not but the piano made me think of them.
	2:47pm P-90: ...then there's the Nicolette Larson saga
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Hard to say, I don't have the liner notes. I know Ted Templeman produced that album.
	2:48pm doctorjazz: Now this Zevon album (and track) is fabulous!
	🛒 2:48pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: "A Certain Girl" is my favorite Warren Zevon song! Thanks.
	2:49pm P-90: I miss Nicolette. Zevon too. They both burned brightly and far too briefly.
	2:49pm Parq: This Zevon track was a high point of what I thought was a pretty disappointing album. His original stuff just didn't have the zest of the first couple of albums.
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: I think her name is "Lizzie."
	2:50pm Parq: Props to Dr. Jazz and my dissent is offered respectfully.
	2:50pm johnk77: ted+lenny came out on some little feat dates
	2:50pm chromaphone: Bill Payne I was right!: www.discogs.com...
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: good call chromaphone
	2:56pm Santos L Halper: Great show UM! BTW I had a great time at Wrigley Sunday, watching Arrieta dominate under the blood moon...
	2:57pm P-90: Heard the rumor that Helen has been placed in supervised living with Alzheimer's symptoms?
	2:57pm doctorjazz: No prob, @parq, but do like the songs on it. "Gorrilla, You're a Desperado", "Play It All Night Long", "Jennie Needs a Shooter", and the tune played, classic Zevon.
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Wow Santos! Lucky! That's a shame to hear P-90
	2:58pm Guido from Cologne: loved the show1 thank you Michael!
	2:58pm Parq: Uncle M, this show was one for the books. Thanks for all the effort and all the good vibes.
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: Thank you Guido!
	2:59pm Webhamster Henry: This _is_ the Devo version, I was just wondering if this was it.
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: Just three more songs...hang with me...
	2:59pm listener james from westwood: In my head, the end credits of the film "Heavy Metal" are now scrolling up the screen to this Devo.
	3:00pm Uncle Michael: hah!
	3:00pm doctorjazz: Great show! Thanks, UM!
	3:01pm Uncle Michael: thanks Doctor J.
	3:02pm P-90: A treat to catch the last hour today live, will get the rest on the archive. Thanks, and have a great weekend, @Pufnstuf Dude!
	3:02pm johnk77: @um fantastic;>
	3:03pm Guido from Cologne: i have another early 70ies Irma Thomas LP on fungus with some good Toussant version on it
	3:03pm Lewis: joining the show already in progress….
	3:03pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	3:04pm P-90: ...and I'd rather imagine just where Bratsk is than google it.
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Thank s to all of you for listening today...remember the thing I'm not talking about!
	3:05pm P-90: Oh, yeah- that Important Silent Thing
	3:05pm Uncle Michael: One. More. Song.
	3:06pm Parq: Take your time, man. This is .. well, it sure damn is.
	3:08pm doctorjazz: Saw EC this summer, he can still bring it!
	3:08pm J-Dub: I feel like there should be a special sound effect that gets played whenever we go into Hinky Dinky Overtime.
	3:08pm Uncle Michael: I saw him too...yes he can.
	3:10pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, man! On to the postseason! (Seeing the Mets tmw, though, if not rained out...)
	3:10pm listener james from westwood: I love the HDT Highway! Clean restrooms, no speed traps, and tolls only once (or twice ... shhh) a year! Many thanks, Uncle Michael, and safe skies and seas, all!
	🛒 3:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Saw EC open for Dylan - didn't even know he was on the bill! Elvis was acoustic - which was clever, as reduced pressure for Bob to do so. Elvis was great - as were Bob & band (good period, good band).
	3:13pm Doug Schulkind: Lets go Metspiratesoriolesnotyankees!
	🛒 3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...good night.) - Thx UM !
	3:14pm doctorjazz: Saw him open for Steely Dan, he smoked them, Attractions style band.
	3:14pm P-90: We'll all pray for Helen Reddy and the Cubbies.
	3:15pm Uncle Michael: Thanks one and all!
	🛒 3:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - nice doc !...
