	🛒 12:14pm Brian in UK: Michael Levine wrote it and Gary Morse played it.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Vader, don't lose that number.
	12:16pm Lane Gray: Mike Perlowin mainly plays classical on his pedal steel. Has a cool version of the Firebird Suite
	12:17pm Lewis: 4 for 4 on the clicky stars so far... (i include the in-theme)
	12:17pm Marie: Howdy! I love that image.
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: Brian! Lewis! Marie! Thanks!

	12:22pm Stevel: Ditto, Goldrush. Neat.
	12:23pm mauri: buudifuul
	12:26pm Dean: I'm feeling so good I want to know Christmas in the Biblical sense.
	12:28pm Lewis: "Comestibles!"
	12:30pm Lane Gray: Ambrosi is a great place. And their used knives are good, cheap, but ugly.
	12:31pm Dominick: At last! A dance I'm good at!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I thought of you, Dom.
	12:35pm Dominick: Some very Grapey goodness!
	12:35pm coelacanth: greetings Uncle and dinky listeners
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Hello fish that walks on the ground!
	12:36pm Parq: Okay, I might as well admit it. I can't stop gazing at that actress's shape in that sheer gown.
	🛒 12:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this here be Klassik Garage Sound. Yessir.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: You noticed that, did you Parq? Rev!
	🛒 12:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for '65 these are hipsters...
	12:42pm tate: glad to be listening again today
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: Hey Tate...been a while. Good to see you.
	12:45pm Dean: 99 miles from L.A. puts you somewhere around Santa Barbara if you're traveling south. But L.A. is such a sprawl that even when you get there you're still not there.
	12:52pm Lane Gray: So what cool stuff did you discover in KC this time?
	12:53pm Alex In Illinois: I have been listening since the beginning of Doug's show, but have not said anything yet.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Hey Dean... Hi Alex. Speak now or forever speak again some more later.
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: lane I discovered that the Consentino's market in Brookside carries many Boar's Head products I didn't know they made...such as a navel cut pastrami...and they had some excellent Norwegiaan lox. I got the good baba ganouj from down at city market...and white anchovies at Bella Napoli...Serrano ham and pancetta at city market too.
	12:59pm Mike East: we had some great baba ganouj in Durham, NC last week, for breakfast. Also a lovely cup of tea w/ sage.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: Al...Ahhhhh!
	1:01pm Lane Gray: Cool.
	1:02pm Uncle Michael: City Market is produce and other vendors...there's a good Middle Eastern grocery and a good Italian deli there.
	1:02pm Mike East: oh also, hello, nice show so far! Hell yes, Al Green!
	1:02pm Parq: I mentioned to a high school pal that I dug Al Green, and he responded, "Oh, you're one of those guys." When I gave him a quizzical look, he responded (somewhat sheepishly, to his credit) that Al Green was known for being really popular with women. Growing up blue-collar Catholic in New Jersey was like that.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Al Green has tactical value. Was that his point?
	1:06pm Parq: Um, to tell you the truth, UM, I didn't have anyone to be tactical with at the time, and he knew it.
	1:08pm johnk77: nice work selecter rev al green on of bonnie raitt's favorite composers thanx for tenpole tudor steve jones great bloke in early eighties and probably before+after
	1:09pm johnk77: one of
	1:09pm Sue P.: If by "tactical" you mean demonstrating you had good musical taste, I get that. ha. HA.
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: it never hurts to prepare, Parq.
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Sue...that's exactly what I mean.
	1:10pm Alex In Illinois: @Parq: I think the point is to be ready, just in case the opportunity occurred unexpectedly.
	1:17pm Lane Gray: There's always room for cello
	1:19pm doctorjazz: Moody's really conjure high school.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Oh, you're one of those guys.
	🛒 1:21pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello HDinkyworld. Thanks fot this great MBs song. Not too much love for 'em on the mothership
	1:21pm Dean: I think he was referring to the credit ranking agency, like Standard & Poors.
	1:21pm mauri: that one yeah him he's one of those fuckers who likes music
	1:22pm Dean: Is this the song where George asks if your refrigerator is running?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Ain't it the truth...Kevin,...and for that matter, mauri.
	1:23pm Doug Schulkind: Possum!
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: George had Prince Albert in the can.
	🛒 1:24pm KevinfromBayRidge: think it was also the last track on Children's Children's Children's
	1:27pm Mike East: I just bought that Moody Blues not long ago on a recommend from Irene Trudel's show, I think. I gotta give that another spin, I think
	1:28pm Dean: Well, thank you, UM. I know it pains you to spin TYA. Still waiting for Savoy Brown, though.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: hah! I'd forgotten about our TYA exchange. This just caught me on a good day, I guess. I will play some Savoy Brown soon...I promise.
	1:30pm Parq: Hah! Still have the tufted mallet I grabbed from a Mad Sq Garden stage at a '74 Moodys concert.
	1:30pm doctorjazz: Talk about interesting covers, never heard this Nazareth, nice version.
	1:31pm Dean: Nazareth? Is this the start of your holiday show?
	1:31pm coelacanth: Parq@1:02 i know what you mean; except i kept it on the dl! i didn't care what others thought,but i just assumed they wouldn't like it. they came to my house expecting to hear rock, and "space-rock"....but eventually they flipped through my albums and i couldn't deny my deviant tendencies.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: It's as close as I'll get today, Dean.
	🛒 1:32pm KevinfromBayRidge: Mike, That and Question of Balance are my MB faves. I started hearing their later stuff on "Album Oriented" stations a little too much.
	1:34pm Alex In Illinois: I switched from franks to gyros.
	1:34pm Dean: Trader Joe's frozen mac 'n' cheese is really, really good. Not at all like the box stuff. Not sure, though, it would go well even with good hot dogs.
	1:35pm ndbob: I think that the Phantom was discovered by Pat Boone - really
	1:36pm coelacanth: (why you leave off "you"? ..."rock and roll you"!)
	1:37pm coelacanth: haha!
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: It's like the missed knot in a Persian rug, coelacanth.
	1:41pm coelacanth: Great song!
	1:41pm Dominick: Love this!
	🛒 1:42pm KevinfromBayRidge: They flew on this one!
	🛒 1:42pm Brian in UK: I dug out The Worst of Jefferson Airplane last week. Great record. Top sounds.
	1:42pm Dean: That Sandy Stanton record is probably 1958: http://www.songpoemmusic.com/labels/fable.htm
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: probably!
	1:44pm coelacanth: ha!...well i actually was wondering if the single had it entitled without the "you". ...ridiculous,of course, but some radio stations might have not played a song who's title suggests sex, even in such a coded way!
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: This record is giving me actual goosebumps.
	🛒 1:48pm Brian in UK: Got me thinking of White Plains, a harmony group from around this time.
	1:49pm coelacanth: this is not on my days of future passed album.
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: Tony Rivers/Tony Burrows...matching Tonys?
	1:50pm Stanley: I go to the loo and you play Nazareth? Woe is me
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: maybe this was on a reissue as a bonus track...I may have made a mistake!
	1:50pm coelacanth: white plains...hmm... "my baby loves lovin""?
	1:52pm still b/p: A bubblegum survey might be titled Triumph of Treble.
	1:53pm Uncle Michael: The trouble with treble.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Yes, still b/p, that White Plains.
	🛒 1:54pm Brian in UK: Excellent.
	1:54pm coelacanth: ...all these old songs! it's a refresher course. (and a trivia game)
	1:54pm Stanley: Brian, the only other time I visited your home town was as a teenager. Watford football ground Elton Bog, Rod Stewart and Nazareth. Nineteen seventy something. You weren't there were you?
	1:55pm Jeff Golick: Here comes treble...
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: Treble is my middle name.
	1:56pm Dean: All about that bass.
	1:56pm coelacanth: my sister got a dog named "flower" at the shelter. no one liked it so the contest was on. i suggested "Tribble", since she was clearly going to be a handful. ...but her children didn't get the reference,unfortunately.
	🛒 1:57pm Brian in UK: Stanley. No. Moved there in '83. I used to go there to get parts for my BSA 650.
	1:57pm still b/p: Remember in the "Trouble With Treble" episode when all those 45s came dumping out of the upper cupboard onto Captain Kirk?
	1:58pm coelacanth: Hahaha!
	1:58pm Dean: Not quite, still b/p, but I do remember Spock cleaning the turntable stylus and producing hundreds of little dust balls.
	🛒 1:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Harmony Grass was like Simon&Garfunkel backed by CS&N - kinda notable...
	2:02pm coelacanth: yes it depends on the song...same thing with the strings. i almost always like flat-wound bass strings, but occasionally it's more about the twang than the bottom.
	🛒 2:05pm Brian in UK: Food, time for cooking. Great sounds, Uncle.
	🛒 2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Electric Bass Guitar is an even newer instrument than the Electric Guitar - & the Guitar itself was never respectable: Bach wrote for Lute & Cello - the Guitar was the village bicycle that everybody had had a ride on...So - Rules Schmules.
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hangin' out Brian.
	2:08pm Lane Gray: Reverend Rabbit, you know what (they think) was the first use of the electric bass guitar on record?
	🛒 2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No man - hit me !
	2:09pm Lane Gray: I'd heard it was Reno and Smiley.
	2:09pm coelacanth: exactly,RR. most wfmu djs would be outlaws if some stuffy theory snobs had their way.
	🛒 2:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...websearches to make sure Reno & Smiley isn't a cop parody starring Ren&Stimpy...) - Bluegrass ?
	2:13pm Lane Gray: Yup. Bluegrass.
	🛒 2:22pm KevinfromBayRidge: Love Dave Van Ronk's version of Amsterdam
	2:31pm coelacanth: Incredible song!! ...never heard this cover.
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: This is about as good a Hair cover as I've ever heard.
	🛒 2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for the DNC - snark...
	2:33pm Dominick: wowzers!
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: heh.
	🛒 2:33pm KevinfromBayRidge: Yup! Almost forgot how good these guys were.
	2:33pm Mike East: up there with Nina Simone "Ain't Got No/I got Life"
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, that's contender.
	2:34pm coelacanth: yup.
	2:39pm doctorjazz: Spacebox?
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Ya.
	2:42pm Stevel: Spacebox is really capturing my mood, which, likely, is cause for alarm.
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Another Captain Beefheart with an accent!
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Bryant/West, great stuff!
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: I wish I knew who the fiddle player was.
	2:46pm Lane Gray: I can try to find out. Gordon Terry wouldn't surprise me
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: having never heard of him, it wouldn't surprise me either.
	2:51pm mauri: funny last songs. I sure enjoyed your show uncle michael. good night.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: Thanks mauri...see you next time.
	2:53pm coelacanth: Thanks Michael! ciao y'all.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: Stick around for DJ Guy's special if you can...see you all next week!
	2:54pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	🛒 2:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx UM !

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 18, 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.

	🛒 12:14pm Brian in UK: Michael Levine wrote it and Gary Morse played it.
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Vader, don't lose that number.
	12:16pm Lane Gray: Mike Perlowin mainly plays classical on his pedal steel. Has a cool version of the Firebird Suite
	12:17pm Lewis: 4 for 4 on the clicky stars so far... (i include the in-theme)
	12:17pm Marie: Howdy! I love that image.
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: Brian! Lewis! Marie! Thanks!
	12:20pm Stanley: Love the toggle facility
	12:22pm doctorjazz: Great version of Goldrush.
	12:22pm Stevel: Ditto, Goldrush. Neat.
	12:23pm mauri: buudifuul
	12:26pm Dean: I'm feeling so good I want to know Christmas in the Biblical sense.
	12:28pm Lewis: "Comestibles!"
	12:30pm Lane Gray: Ambrosi is a great place. And their used knives are good, cheap, but ugly.
	12:31pm Dominick: At last! A dance I'm good at!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I thought of you, Dom.
	12:35pm Dominick: Some very Grapey goodness!
	12:35pm coelacanth: greetings Uncle and dinky listeners
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Hello fish that walks on the ground!
	12:36pm Parq: Okay, I might as well admit it. I can't stop gazing at that actress's shape in that sheer gown.
	🛒 12:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this here be Klassik Garage Sound. Yessir.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: You noticed that, did you Parq? Rev!
	🛒 12:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for '65 these are hipsters...
	12:42pm tate: glad to be listening again today
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: Hey Tate...been a while. Good to see you.
	12:45pm Dean: 99 miles from L.A. puts you somewhere around Santa Barbara if you're traveling south. But L.A. is such a sprawl that even when you get there you're still not there.
	12:52pm Lane Gray: So what cool stuff did you discover in KC this time?
	12:53pm Alex In Illinois: I have been listening since the beginning of Doug's show, but have not said anything yet.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Hey Dean... Hi Alex. Speak now or forever speak again some more later.
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: lane I discovered that the Consentino's market in Brookside carries many Boar's Head products I didn't know they made...such as a navel cut pastrami...and they had some excellent Norwegiaan lox. I got the good baba ganouj from down at city market...and white anchovies at Bella Napoli...Serrano ham and pancetta at city market too.
	12:59pm Mike East: we had some great baba ganouj in Durham, NC last week, for breakfast. Also a lovely cup of tea w/ sage.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: Al...Ahhhhh!
	1:01pm Lane Gray: Cool.
	1:02pm Uncle Michael: City Market is produce and other vendors...there's a good Middle Eastern grocery and a good Italian deli there.
	1:02pm Mike East: oh also, hello, nice show so far! Hell yes, Al Green!
	1:02pm Parq: I mentioned to a high school pal that I dug Al Green, and he responded, "Oh, you're one of those guys." When I gave him a quizzical look, he responded (somewhat sheepishly, to his credit) that Al Green was known for being really popular with women. Growing up blue-collar Catholic in New Jersey was like that.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Al Green has tactical value. Was that his point?
	1:06pm Parq: Um, to tell you the truth, UM, I didn't have anyone to be tactical with at the time, and he knew it.
	1:08pm johnk77: nice work selecter rev al green on of bonnie raitt's favorite composers thanx for tenpole tudor steve jones great bloke in early eighties and probably before+after
	1:09pm johnk77: one of
	1:09pm Sue P.: If by "tactical" you mean demonstrating you had good musical taste, I get that. ha. HA.
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: it never hurts to prepare, Parq.
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Yes, Sue...that's exactly what I mean.
	1:10pm Alex In Illinois: @Parq: I think the point is to be ready, just in case the opportunity occurred unexpectedly.
	1:17pm Lane Gray: There's always room for cello
	1:19pm doctorjazz: Moody's really conjure high school.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Oh, you're one of those guys.
	🛒 1:21pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello HDinkyworld. Thanks fot this great MBs song. Not too much love for 'em on the mothership
	1:21pm Dean: I think he was referring to the credit ranking agency, like Standard & Poors.
	1:21pm mauri: that one yeah him he's one of those fuckers who likes music
	1:22pm Dean: Is this the song where George asks if your refrigerator is running?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Ain't it the truth...Kevin,...and for that matter, mauri.
	1:23pm Doug Schulkind: Possum!
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: George had Prince Albert in the can.
	🛒 1:24pm KevinfromBayRidge: think it was also the last track on Children's Children's Children's
	1:27pm Mike East: I just bought that Moody Blues not long ago on a recommend from Irene Trudel's show, I think. I gotta give that another spin, I think
	1:28pm Dean: Well, thank you, UM. I know it pains you to spin TYA. Still waiting for Savoy Brown, though.
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: hah! I'd forgotten about our TYA exchange. This just caught me on a good day, I guess. I will play some Savoy Brown soon...I promise.
	1:30pm Parq: Hah! Still have the tufted mallet I grabbed from a Mad Sq Garden stage at a '74 Moodys concert.
	1:30pm doctorjazz: Talk about interesting covers, never heard this Nazareth, nice version.
	1:31pm Dean: Nazareth? Is this the start of your holiday show?
	1:31pm coelacanth: Parq@1:02 i know what you mean; except i kept it on the dl! i didn't care what others thought,but i just assumed they wouldn't like it. they came to my house expecting to hear rock, and "space-rock"....but eventually they flipped through my albums and i couldn't deny my deviant tendencies.
	1:31pm Uncle Michael: It's as close as I'll get today, Dean.
	🛒 1:32pm KevinfromBayRidge: Mike, That and Question of Balance are my MB faves. I started hearing their later stuff on "Album Oriented" stations a little too much.
	1:34pm Alex In Illinois: I switched from franks to gyros.
	1:34pm Dean: Trader Joe's frozen mac 'n' cheese is really, really good. Not at all like the box stuff. Not sure, though, it would go well even with good hot dogs.
	1:35pm ndbob: I think that the Phantom was discovered by Pat Boone - really
	1:36pm coelacanth: (why you leave off "you"? ..."rock and roll you"!)
	1:37pm coelacanth: haha!
	1:39pm Uncle Michael: It's like the missed knot in a Persian rug, coelacanth.
	1:41pm coelacanth: Great song!
	1:41pm Dominick: Love this!
	🛒 1:42pm KevinfromBayRidge: They flew on this one!
	🛒 1:42pm Brian in UK: I dug out The Worst of Jefferson Airplane last week. Great record. Top sounds.
	1:42pm Dean: That Sandy Stanton record is probably 1958: http://www.songpoemmusic.com/labels/fable.htm
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: probably!
	1:44pm coelacanth: ha!...well i actually was wondering if the single had it entitled without the "you". ...ridiculous,of course, but some radio stations might have not played a song who's title suggests sex, even in such a coded way!
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: This record is giving me actual goosebumps.
	🛒 1:48pm Brian in UK: Got me thinking of White Plains, a harmony group from around this time.
	1:49pm coelacanth: this is not on my days of future passed album.
	1:49pm Uncle Michael: Tony Rivers/Tony Burrows...matching Tonys?
	1:50pm Stanley: I go to the loo and you play Nazareth? Woe is me
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: maybe this was on a reissue as a bonus track...I may have made a mistake!
	1:50pm coelacanth: white plains...hmm... "my baby loves lovin""?
	1:52pm still b/p: A bubblegum survey might be titled Triumph of Treble.
	1:53pm Uncle Michael: The trouble with treble.
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Yes, still b/p, that White Plains.
	🛒 1:54pm Brian in UK: Excellent.
	1:54pm coelacanth: ...all these old songs! it's a refresher course. (and a trivia game)
	1:54pm Stanley: Brian, the only other time I visited your home town was as a teenager. Watford football ground Elton Bog, Rod Stewart and Nazareth. Nineteen seventy something. You weren't there were you?
	1:55pm Jeff Golick: Here comes treble...
	1:55pm Uncle Michael: Treble is my middle name.
	1:56pm Dean: All about that bass.
	1:56pm coelacanth: my sister got a dog named "flower" at the shelter. no one liked it so the contest was on. i suggested "Tribble", since she was clearly going to be a handful. ...but her children didn't get the reference,unfortunately.
	🛒 1:57pm Brian in UK: Stanley. No. Moved there in '83. I used to go there to get parts for my BSA 650.
	1:57pm still b/p: Remember in the "Trouble With Treble" episode when all those 45s came dumping out of the upper cupboard onto Captain Kirk?
	1:58pm coelacanth: Hahaha!
	1:58pm Dean: Not quite, still b/p, but I do remember Spock cleaning the turntable stylus and producing hundreds of little dust balls.
	🛒 1:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Harmony Grass was like Simon&Garfunkel backed by CS&N - kinda notable...
	2:02pm coelacanth: yes it depends on the song...same thing with the strings. i almost always like flat-wound bass strings, but occasionally it's more about the twang than the bottom.
	🛒 2:05pm Brian in UK: Food, time for cooking. Great sounds, Uncle.
	🛒 2:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Electric Bass Guitar is an even newer instrument than the Electric Guitar - & the Guitar itself was never respectable: Bach wrote for Lute & Cello - the Guitar was the village bicycle that everybody had had a ride on...So - Rules Schmules.
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for hangin' out Brian.
	2:08pm Lane Gray: Reverend Rabbit, you know what (they think) was the first use of the electric bass guitar on record?
	🛒 2:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No man - hit me !
	2:09pm Lane Gray: I'd heard it was Reno and Smiley.
	2:09pm coelacanth: exactly,RR. most wfmu djs would be outlaws if some stuffy theory snobs had their way.
	🛒 2:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...websearches to make sure Reno & Smiley isn't a cop parody starring Ren&Stimpy...) - Bluegrass ?
	2:13pm Lane Gray: Yup. Bluegrass.
	🛒 2:22pm KevinfromBayRidge: Love Dave Van Ronk's version of Amsterdam
	2:31pm coelacanth: Incredible song!! ...never heard this cover.
	2:32pm Uncle Michael: This is about as good a Hair cover as I've ever heard.
	🛒 2:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...for the DNC - snark...
	2:33pm Dominick: wowzers!
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: heh.
	🛒 2:33pm KevinfromBayRidge: Yup! Almost forgot how good these guys were.
	2:33pm Mike East: up there with Nina Simone "Ain't Got No/I got Life"
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, that's contender.
	2:34pm coelacanth: yup.
	2:39pm doctorjazz: Spacebox?
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Ya.
	2:42pm Stevel: Spacebox is really capturing my mood, which, likely, is cause for alarm.
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Another Captain Beefheart with an accent!
	2:43pm doctorjazz: Bryant/West, great stuff!
	2:44pm Uncle Michael: I wish I knew who the fiddle player was.
	2:46pm Lane Gray: I can try to find out. Gordon Terry wouldn't surprise me
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: having never heard of him, it wouldn't surprise me either.
	2:51pm mauri: funny last songs. I sure enjoyed your show uncle michael. good night.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: Thanks mauri...see you next time.
	2:53pm coelacanth: Thanks Michael! ciao y'all.
	2:54pm Uncle Michael: Stick around for DJ Guy's special if you can...see you all next week!
	2:54pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	🛒 2:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx UM !
