WFMU: Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from June 24, 2016

Listener comments!
	8:26am doctorjazz: Ready for the long distance marathon show... On your mark, get set...
	🛒 8:45am Brian in UK: Live from Uncle's back yard with grass cutter cam (as opposed to leaf blower guy). It's no yawn on your lawn.
	🛒 8:47am Brian in UK: Nice photograph, the skies over the UK today; and I do not mean just the weather.
	8:52am Uncle Michael: It's an ill wind that blows. No good.
	9:01am doctorjazz: Drumma theme...????? Ahhhh....there we go
	9:02am ndbob: morning UM and everyone! Will be here for the first part of the day - doctor's appointment this afternoon
	9:02am annie: i'm here but i'm sleeping.. please keep the noise down?
	9:02am Andrew Waterloo: dammit, UK
	9:03am listener james from westwood: How do, UM and all! @Brian: Deepest sympathies. I've been suppressing a rage-stroke all morning.
	9:04am Andrew Waterloo: I haven't heard from my UK coworkers, yet. But, they're in New Castle, the first place to vote Remain.
	9:05am hyde: Brexit wins and Ralph Stanley dies. This is no fun.
	9:05am Uncle Michael: Doc! Brian! Bob! Annie! James! Andrew!
	9:09am Uncle Michael: Hyde! how is everyone?
	9:09am listener james from westwood: I have a former workmate, a Yorkshireman living in the US, who took himself off Facebook years ago bc he couldn't keep from getting keyed up and pulled into online rows, for whom I'm genuinely concerned right now. He could well stress himself into the hospital over this.
	9:15am doctorjazz: Have some personal problems resulting from the Brexit vote as well, man, this is the year voters defy the pundits (and common sense).
	9:15am Andrew Waterloo: I was in New Castle last week and the Sun was just brutal. We didn't talk about it.
	9:17am Andrew Waterloo: unfortunately the voters are going to got owned a long with everyone else.
	9:17am duke: Howdy UM and lsiteners
	9:18am hyde: awwww, there he is. One of the greats.
	9:21am Dominick: very nice
	🛒 9:21am Brian in UK: Mr Clawhammer has gone. Hell.
	9:25am Alex In Illinois: I've been here, listening. I heard the into and all. I've been too busy to comment so far.
	9:25am Jeff Golick: Hi. This is the weirdest year ever. I blame...uh... (Ps. Sorry for the old HDT link in today's email, folks. I'm no Doug.)
	9:26am listener james from westwood: Feels less like the restoration of empire and more like a sickening lurch into the V for Vendetta future.
	9:27am Listener Scott: Glad to have you for six hours UM. Nice surprise.
	🛒 9:27am Brian in UK: England, that is to say not London, voted out not the UK. And to cap it all there is bluddy Glastonbury, headliners, Coldplay and Adele.
	9:28am Uncle Michael: Duke! Alex! Jeff! Scott!
	9:30am Goyim in the AM: Trying to look at the bright side: this might be a good time to order that fine handcrafted English bass guitar, at least until the luthiers have to burn their wood stocks for fuel. Morning, all. Trying to avoid any far right glee here in Austria, successful so far.
	9:30am Alex In Illinois: Gotta attend a meeting now. I'l lbe back later.
	9:30am Jeff Golick: @Brian in UK: I actually had to google that lineup as I didn't believe you.
	9:31am Uncle Michael: Goyim!
	9:32am listener james from westwood: Bomb Squad production was fierce right out o the gate on PE's discs.
	🛒 9:33am Brian in UK: @Jeff cutting edge. @Goyim, Far right in Holland & France have already called for referedums in their countries.
	9:36am A Phlebotomist Writes: We are all the same color under the skin.
	9:36am annie: here in NC, we in asheville want to crete the new state of West Carolina. raleigh is doing everything in its power to destroy asheville.
	🛒 9:37am Brian in UK: Is this Arthur J Prysock. The TS Eliot tribute poet.
	9:38am hyde: oh wow, Arthur Prysock sang the "Let it be Lowenbrau" beer ad
	9:38am Uncle Michael: Welcome Phleb!
	9:38am Goyim in the AM: @Brian they are surely doing it here too, I just haven't had the stomach to look yet. 'scuse me a moment while I go wallow in filth...
	9:40am Mr C: Burn Baby Burn. Old Arthur Prysock socks it to Studio 54.
	9:41am Goyim in the AM: @Brian. Yup. Just got introduced to the word Öxit. Now what the hell am I supposed to do with all these Outstria t-shirts I ordered to get rich off of?
	9:42am Uncle Michael: Mornin' Mr. C.
	9:43am ndbob: @annie won't happen - movements like that never go anywhere
	9:44am listener james from westwood: @hyde: I THOUGHT that voice sounded familiar! Deep-buried ad memories flooding back!
	9:45am Mike East: we did backline for Public Enemy earlier this week. Good morning, Hinky Dinkers!
	9:46am Uncle Michael: Mike! How was that experience?
	9:50am Mike East: Well, from my end it was mostly just reading emails, typing things into a computer and purchasing things like bass strings, drum sticks, guitar picks and turntable cartridges...so not really much fun. One of my colleagues actually got to go to the gig. By all accounts a great day at the park, but I doubt he really cared much about the music.
	🛒 9:51am Brian in UK: Uncle need to get some protein drinks and a massage to go the distance today.
	9:54am Webhamster Henry: I got a lot of "Let It Be Löwengard" in college.
	9:54am listener james from westwood: UM, cartoons were indeed my early tutelage in both classical music and the Great American Songbook.
	9:55am hyde: this Flamingos record has the best production ever
	9:56am annie: damn tootin' hyde; one of my faves..
	9:56am Uncle Michael: Hyde is correct!
	9:56am Lewis: is this slowed down just a tad...?
	9:58am Alex In Illinois: What is that 2 syllable word that is echoes in that Flamingos song?
	9:58am Uncle Michael: Good catch Lewis. Corrected...thank you!
	10:01am still b/p: Goo' morning. Don't think I recognized Hot Canary, but...well, it completes me. Regarding cartoon/life reference and integration and influence -- I was trying yesterday to figure out how succinctly I could describe Clyde Crashcup (and his Richard Haydn-mimicking voice) and his shtick to someone as an example of a character option they might try in stage performance.
	10:02am listener james from westwood: Would never have known about cumbia or Chicha Libre if not for FMU. Eternally grateful.
	10:04am Uncle Michael: Good morning still b/p. That's cool, James. I'm still trying to track down the first cumbia sonidera that I heard over 25 years ago.
	10:04am βrian: Tumbled in through the laundry chute. Good morning.
	10:04am annie: yeah, i think it was fmu for the intro to cumbia, but i also listen to the saturday brazilian shows on OZ.. crossover exposure i guess
	10:04am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	10:05am listener james from westwood: @βrian: If you saw any of my black socks, tell them they are missed.
	10:06am βrian: I do hope Trump doesn't return. He seems to have found his spiritual home ...
	10:08am βrian: Are they the ribbed garter hose, James? No nonsense there.
	10:09am 67tele: hey hey
	10:10am Uncle Michael: Paisley '67 Tele, perchance?
	10:10am βrian: Next up, will Topeka vote to stay or to leave?
	10:10am Webhamster Henry: I've always been interested in cartoon music, and the large amounts of Raymond Scott played on WFMU was attractive to me! Carl Stalling's soundtracks for Warners, bereft of Mel Blanc and other voices are on the Carl Stalling Project recordings. At MGM, Scott Bradley did admirable work. Then there's also the great Fleischer Brothers sound tracks. The idea of an almost free associative yet rigorously programmatic music is very appealing!
	10:12am 67tele: no mine's an overpainted red scratched up Tele with 'Damn Shambles' spraypainted on the back (kinda like 'Fang' from Paul Revere and...)
	10:14am hyde: @Webhamster Henry i want to hear that record of Max Fleischer cartoon music that Gary Lucas put out earlier this year
	10:15am still b/p: Whenever a cumbia begins here it pulls me out of my slouch. A brief attempt to learn to dance the cumbia 15 years ago was...how do you say "not a smashing success" in Spanish? And how do you say "I just improv some other damn thing instead?"
	10:17am βrian: You'll have to explain "Slug Bug" to the kids, Uncle Michael.
	10:23am Uncle Michael: If you see a VW Beetle, hit someone.
	10:24am V Priceless: Hey Uncle M!
	10:24am Uncle Michael: VP!
	10:27am sinner: ...no, no. Cubs vote to leave the National League.
	10:28am Uncle Michael: sinner...umm...
	10:30am still b/p: A young lady in the midwest introduced me to this one: when a car with just one headlight on -- a "perdiddle" -- approaches, it's kiss time. So if a VW with a light out comes by...do you get pucker punched?
	10:32am Uncle Michael: Fake Vanilla Fudge!
	10:32am V Priceless: zactly!!
	10:32am Dominick: exactly what I was about to say
	10:33am βrian: Those midwestern women!
	10:34am Uncle Michael: Dom!
	10:34am Uncle Michael: fake Harry!
	🛒 10:35am Brian in UK: Something about a coconut?
	10:41am Little Danny: Go Uncle Michael!
	10:43am 67tele: @still: pucker punch! love it. I guess out here in Colorado that perdiddle might morph into the Spanish 'perdido' or lost... perhaps it's its root?
	10:46am Uncle Michael: Hey Danny!
	10:46am Webhamster Henry: Someone did a paradiddle on the headlight, apparently.
	10:46am Webhamster Henry: So, when are you getting around to Borscht Riders In The Sky?
	10:48am Dominick: this makes me feel dirty
	10:48am Uncle Michael: I dunno, Henry...I have it. it's umm...pretty...it's something.
	10:49am Little Danny: I am hoping this turns into whole set of '50s pop vocal harmonies. COME AT ME LETTERMEN
	10:50am Jeff Golick: The Brexit vote looks very city vs. country, which is feeling evermore like the eternal divide - here, there, everywhere. Now vs. then; tradition vs. new vistas; polyglot vs. uniform. Depressing.
	10:50am still b/p: "Ominousness has been removed from this version of Riders In The Sky to protect the sensitive listener." @ 67tele -- Wiki takes us to mysterious Westchester County. NY, for origins and variation stories
	10:51am Marie: I love your tune selections UM. Thanks!
	10:51am Uncle Michael: Thank you Marie!
	10:52am βrian: Back from a Señor Coconut interlude.
	10:53am Uncle Michael: I love Senor Coconut!
	10:53am ndbob: @Jeff not quite city v country - some fairly large cities voted to leave - but definitely young v old
	10:55am Jeff Golick: @ndbob: Ah. Well, then all we have to do is stop the aging process.
	10:55am βrian: Seems like some folks just wanted to pitch some bricks, and the Brexit vote seemed to provide a lot of ammo.
	10:57am 67tele: wow this willie hutch sounds creepily like the monkey time...wonder which came first, the monkey or the duck? seems to be a good example of the ol'copycat cash in
	10:58am Little Danny: Willie Hutch: maybe the greatest northern double-sider?
	10:59am Uncle Michael: For others to judge, Danny. Not my bailiwick.
	11:01am ndbob: One of the most bizarre things about Twitter during the Brexit vote was the endless series of impassioned Tweets by Lindsay Lohan for the Remain campaign
	11:01am Rich in Washington: I forgot that this was bonus Hinky Dinky time. Nice surprise to wake up to. Greetings, everyone!
	11:01am ndbob: Even Reuters commented on it
	11:02am Marie: Has anyone been paying attention to the "smart city" movement? I am just starting to learn about it. Methinks it bears attention and I am very skeptical. Seems like another example of the notion that digitization can solve all problems and a potential way for certain people to gain power over others.
	11:03am Dean: Maybe the United States should vote to return to England? We could start wearing powdered wigs again.
	11:04am hyde: @ndbob haha, i didn't see that!
	11:05am doctorjazz: My ears perked up, the sound of Jerry!
	11:05am Jeff Golick: @ndbob: The Lohan tweets were a thing of (bizzare, utterly odd) beauty.
	11:05am Uncle Michael: Rich! Dean! Just in time!
	11:05am Jeff Golick: Saw this, too: "When history books are written, they will sat that Brexit could have been stopped had Lindsay Lohan expressed her opinions earlier."
	11:06am Lewis: TCU baby!
	11:06am 67tele: young, supple Jerry no less...
	11:06am annie: marie, agree... the more technology slips into our culture, the easier it is to control the population. i'm as off grid as i can be and still have my fmu to cheer me up.
	11:08am βrian: @Dean: Pity the dentists!
	11:08am Dean: @Marie: I was just reading this yesterday: https://nextcity.org/daily/entry/national-neighborhood-indicators-partnership-local-data-intermediary I share your skepticism. OTOH, I like this idea of local data intermediaries. Maybe that's because I work with folks who do this sort of thing, but not out of hunger for power. I remember this show, @UM! It was a Sunday. I got to miss school the next day.
	11:08am doctorjazz: Nice about a Dead jam, gives the DJ a chance for a bathroom break!
	11:10am Marie: Hi Annie, yeah, good way of putting it. I hate FB, don't tweet, and just put a piece of tape over my Mac webcam (as I just read Mark Zuckerberg did). I mean, all this is such fertile ground for all kinds of manipulations and for sci-fi writers.
	11:12am annie: the further a city administration can distance itself from the people, via wbsites, "surveys", and digital information, the more they can do behind our backs. i don't trust any city gubmint that promotes an "easier and more efficient" way to let them know how i feel
	11:12am Marie: Hey, Dean, yes, I am sure there can be multiple good uses. I think, right now at least, most of the manipulating will be/is of a commercial sort and a political sort.
	11:14am βrian: I don't remember ever not having my laptop lens taped over. I prefer text anyway.
	11:14am ndbob: @Jeff - Yep they were - not always the most articulate Tweets, but true
	11:15am Dean: "I have nothing to hide" is a common ill-informed refrain among some proponents of expanded insidious surveillance. But if anybody were to hack my laptop cam and get a load of my mug, he'd think otherwise. @Marie: The projects I'm thinking of involve making public documentation (e.g., federal, state, and local government records) readily available to all. The flow of information is in the opposite direction from, e.g., what @annie describes. Or at least that's how it's supposed to be.
	11:16am sinner: feller aint a-skeered of playin the Dead.
	11:16am 67tele: I too am as honest as a Denver man can be...
	11:17am Uncle Michael: I ain't-a-skeered of much.
	11:17am Jeff Golick: At least we have Fox News, for comic relief: www.mirror.co.uk...
	11:19am βrian: I can't do the identity-mediated-via-corporations thing, myself. A little twitter to monitor quickly changing events, but that's it.
	11:20am holland oats: now where was i
	11:20am ndbob: Right about government records Dean - most of the worrying seems tinged with conspiracy type thinking - and I won't go anywhere near there
	11:20am Jeff Golick: I'm scared of almost everything. But twitter is killing it right now, in the gallows humor dept.: "has anybody written an article yet on what Brexit means for the Eagles"
	11:22am annie: seriously: Brexit stands for Britain/exit? i thought it was a cabal of countries waiting at the door to form a more perfect union.
	🛒 11:23am Brian in UK: @Jeff History might say Lindsay WHO.
	11:23am ndbob: It means to take it easy Jeff
	🛒 11:23am Brian in UK: 'till Europe freezes over.
	11:24am βrian: Scotland's sure to bolt now, n'est-ce pas?
	🛒 11:25am Brian in UK: Mais oui, jock.
	11:25am Dean: @ndbob, I myself share some of the worry, without resorting to conspiracy. Sheer ignorance explains a lot. And as Marie suggests, tech can be exploited for both good and eevil. Maybe somebody should start a Breturn movement? Or Brinever Mind? Bron Second Thought?
	11:26am ndbob: Most likely Brian - remains to be seen when a good time for another vote is - I was strongly opposed to independence last time - maybe not this time
	11:26am annie: is ths almost over? this GD?
	11:26am Marie: I don't really fear government conspiracies as much as "undue" corporate influence. A book was published recently about a certain business that paid preachers in the US South (not sure exactly when) to say capitalism was Christian. The author was interviewed on NPR--"Fresh Air"--a professor of history at the Univ. Of Illinois.
	11:26am doctorjazz: Had to step out for a bit, returned, still Dead, something constant to hang on to... (this is a great set! Lesh doesn't get the credit for what happens, at least not as much as Garcia, but he really moves things and ups the ante)
	11:26am Dean: annie: You mean "this GD Grateful Dead jam"?
	🛒 11:26am Brian in UK: annie two more weeks.
	11:26am βrian: And what with the clamor of Le Pennistes, can France be far behind?
	11:27am annie: ....you guys said it all, Brian and Dean
	11:28am hyde: did Uncle Michael put this on and then go out to cut the lawn?
	🛒 11:28am Brian in UK: @βrian refer to comment at 9:33.
	11:28am annie: don't let UM know i said this but i really hate the GD GD
	11:29am ndbob: I'm not exactly a fan Annie - but that's OK:)
	11:30am holland oats: we are with you um
	11:30am listener james from westwood: 6 hours does indeed allow for the mega-jams! As does freedom from the grim toll of commercials.
	11:30am Stanley: Hi Gang. @Brian - dunno about you but I'm having a shite day
	11:31am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: And now a word from Kars for Kids.
	11:31am annie: i can tolerate it for a while, but the repetition gets old. i never did get their popularity. i still love you UM
	11:31am doctorjazz: Now, maybe I'm missing something, but wasn't the Brexit referendum NOT BINDING? While it expresses the will of the people, it doesn't automatically mean it is going to happen, no legal power. There will likely be some kind of effort to negate the vote, I'd guess.
	11:31am listener james from westwood: @Marie: was it "The Blessings of Business," by Grem, by any chance?
	🛒 11:31am Brian in UK: Stanley sorry to hear that, not working? Mine got better after I left work.
	11:32am βrian: @BUK: Oh dear. On the other hand, Scotland could move to the right side of the road, as a first step.
	11:32am Doug Schulkind: Greetings from Brookline, Mass. My daughter is on a college tour at Harvard and I am lounging in a breezy apartment next to Michael Dukakis' house. Heading to Maine tomorrow morning!
	11:33am annie: yes, djazz, i saw that comment ... i think there's more to it than meets the eye
	11:33am βrian: Have a steamed bug for us, Doug.
	11:33am Stanley: @βrian: we're already talking about Indyref 2
	11:33am listener james from westwood: Brookline! Good memories of my Boston College years near there.
	11:33am Dean: Hie thee to Weirdo Records, Doug!
	11:33am listener james from westwood: You miiiight be able to get WZBC from there, depending on how many of yinz have metal fillings.
	🛒 11:34am Brian in UK: Hey Doug, Pittsexit. Mainesremains.
	11:35am hyde: @Dean yeah, that's a good store
	🛒 11:35am Brian in UK: Stanley, a beverage my friend.
	11:35am βrian: TurnpikExit?
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: @ βrian Steamed bugs ARE Maine.
	11:36am Uncle Michael: Doug!
	11:36am Parq: < spit take > James, you worked for ZBC? I was Music Director in 1977 and did my last show there in July '79.
	11:36am Stanley: THanks Brian. Got a plan to have a sullen sup around 6pm.
	11:36am βrian: I can almost imagine NJ voting for independence from NY ...
	11:37am ndbob: @srjazz Yes that's true - but I can't imagine them not following through on it - there's years of negotiation to go through - no one is exactly sure how it will proceed from here.
	11:37am annie: so, wait, how old it the EU anyway?
	11:38am listener james from westwood: @Parq: Nope, just a listener while attending BC. A school pal did DJ there, however (this would've been 87-91).
	11:38am Parq: Annie, I read 41 years.
	11:38am Dean: @hyde: I've been there only once. I got off the T and walked to the store hoping to find the Borbetomagus/Hijokaidan CD on Victo. As you know the inventory isn't that extensive. It's the, uh, weirdness that's so compelling. I swear I could smell the disk when I entered the store. Indeed, they had it.
	11:39am annie: hhhm.. 41 years
	11:39am doctorjazz: There was a strong movement for a while for Staten Island to secede from New York (it really DOES belong in Jersey), but it fizzled. Same sort of arguments, would be bad for the borough, etc.
	11:40am Stanley: If it weren't for WFMU I'd commit kamikaze.
	🛒 11:40am Brian in UK: @annie we joined the EEC (European Economic Community) in'73. Confirmed in '75. This morphing into the EU later.
	11:41am Doug Schulkind: Back when New York and New Jersey were fighting over which state got to claim Ellis Island, I remember wishing that we (New York) could just give New Jersey Staten Island instead.
	11:41am hyde: @Dean oh crap! i was going to say i hadn't been there in years, and i just googled it and they closed last year ;(
	11:42am βrian: One more plate of adzuki beans, one more divine wind.
	11:42am Uncle Michael: I'd commit kama sutracide.
	🛒 11:42am Brian in UK: Stanley we have music and beer. I cannot stand the oxygen that the press give to Farridge, pathetic little toe rag.
	11:42am Mike East: @Doug - We (NJ) would have given it back.
	11:42am annie: it's very interesting that the euro currency is just under 20 years old.
	11:43am doctorjazz: Hey, Doug, College Tour! Harvard! Pretty cool. Just finished all that stuff myself, younger daughter's High School Graduation is this afternoon, college in the fall. Good Luck with it all, fun trip to you all!
	11:43am βrian: Hara-tickly is my solution.
	11:43am Jeff Golick: Is Newbury Comics still a thing?
	11:43am 67tele: thinking of doing a Worxit and clocking out early today in sympathy
	11:44am Mike East: Years ago, there was a call for new mottos for NJ and some Brooklyn bred friends of mine suggested "New Jersey: Hey, at least its not Staten Island"
	11:44am still b/p: Doug, I was up in Tenants Harbor a week ago for a day's visit where a friend was staying in a quiet little place. Gooood midcoast medicine.
	11:44am Marie: Hi Listerner James, no, I was referring to "One Nation Under God" by Kevin Kruse. (I had to go look it up.) "The Blessings of Business" that you mentioned sounds great.
	11:45am hyde: @Jeff yeah, there's still a bunch of them. they're not really what they were, though
	11:45am listener james from westwood: @Jeff: I can only hope. I had the flagship Newbury, Tower Records, and a roleplaying game shop within a neat triangle via the Green Line. Very dangerous financially.
	11:46am Stanley: @Brian True dat. The rise of intolerance and stupidity is shocking. All we need is the US to vote in Trump, then we're all screwed.
	11:47am still b/p: There's a Newbury Comics near me in Maine. Just a few days ago I heard a young person complain about the comics focus being long gone there.
	11:48am Dean: @hyde: Goddammit!
	11:48am βrian: It's all about cartoons now.
	11:48am Dean: @UM: Before you broadcast Flemish, have the courtesy to depress the cough button.
	11:48am Konin: Hey Uncle! Lekker deuntje daar!
	11:49am listener james from westwood: @Marie: Due disclosure, I was Grem's proofreader. :) But it sounded so similar in content that I wondered if it were the book I proofed. Grem just came out, so I figured the author was doing press.
	11:49am still b/p: Lotta Damndutch....decent drag name.
	11:49am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: Yeah, I walked that walk. The Tower on Comm Ave.? I am fondly remembering rambling cluelessly around Harvard Sq. as a teen, hitting up used records stores and used clothing stores, looking for just the right overcoat. @βrian: I am agreeing with your "some folks wanted to pitch some bricks" comment above (!0:55). The degree to which this is true is...depressing.
	11:50am Doug Schulkind: @doctorjazz Congrats to you and the grad! @still b/p We are heading down east, as we always do. If anyone will be anywhere near Stonington on Deer Isle, come and see us!
	11:51am annie: stonington..deer isle.. i miss maine.. pass through brooklin and wave at them for me
	11:51am Rich in Washington: Where'd you score tamales, UM? A tamale man/lady with a cart roll by your place?
	11:53am Uncle Michael: No cart, sadly! Konin! In Walloon, si vous plais!
	11:53am annie: so, love to you all, i'm taking a nap with my head full of boogers and sneezing. the pistachio ice cream helped
	11:53am Marie: Love the Beef!
	11:53am Doug Schulkind: @annie I'm sure we'll stop at the Coo-op in Blue Hill. And the great bookstore.
	11:54am holland oats: @jeff - used to work at that tower... w mary lou lord!
	11:55am Konin: Alors, ca c'est autre chose, mon Oncle.
	11:55am Marie: Sounds like Ronnie James Dio!
	11:56am chromaphone: Looove Kyuss, nice.
	11:56am Uncle Michael: A little James Hetfield in him too.
	11:57am chromaphone: When I first heard them I thought he sounded like The Cult singer.
	11:58am Uncle Michael: Him too.
	11:58am 67tele: i don't take any shinki off anybody, but pass the speed and glue pls
	11:59am hyde: @Jeff Harvard Sq. used to have like 6 used bookstores, too. they're all pretty much gone, though Harvard Books still has used stuff. I was in the square one day after one of the big ones closed and they had just thrown a lot of the store contents into a huge dumpster and there was a frenzy of book addicts (like me) climbing into the thing and pawing through the discards.
	11:59am Uncle Michael: I don't know what Shinki is but this is the best band name ever.
	12:00pm 67tele: shinki dinky time soon?
	12:01pm Stanley: @βrian:(10:55) I agree and let's blame the immigrants
	12:01pm listener james from westwood: Diggin' the hell out of this track!
	12:01pm Dean: Grolier Poetry Bookshop still there?
	12:02pm geezerette: G'morning everybody.....doing laps in my coffee...don't know what shinki is either but it's waking me up!
	12:02pm hyde: @Dean yeah, that's still there
	12:03pm Stanley: Hot Leg? What were thinking, here?
	12:03pm Uncle Michael: Hinky Dinky wake up call!
	12:04pm Uncle Michael: Stanley...about rocking and ruling.
	12:04pm βrian: The Brits wanted their own chance to be immigrants again. (Why do Syrians get to have all the fun?)
	12:04pm doctorjazz: Been fun, off to graduation (Jeez...the baby..))
	12:05pm 67tele: fight for your right to get shinki with it
	12:06pm Stanley: UM - while hopping, I presume
	12:07pm Dean: Did he just sing, "get your Betty Boop on"?
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: hot and cold running legs
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: I sure hope so, Dean.
	🛒 12:08pm Brian in UK: @Stanley I am sure that the numbnuts of Little England weighed up the economic consequences of their vote along with any other concerns.
	12:10pm Dean: Maybe it was "Do you have any Grey Poupon."
	12:11pm Stanley: Unfortunately, the 350 million quid a week that they're after. may not materialise.
	12:11pm Lane Gray: I forgot this was the Pheidippides commemorative show
	12:12pm listener james from westwood: I think I've heard Diane Kamikaze use KIE-uss.
	12:12pm chromaphone: you got it Unkie.
	12:13pm listener james from westwood: Fun fact: Their name comes from Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.
	12:13pm geezerette: I come here for musical whiplash!
	12:14pm Dean: Boy, did King Fowley sing Karen's praises yesterday on Diane's show.
	12:14pm βrian: @geezerette: Have you signed the release form?
	12:14pm Dean: Billy Joel should cover this.
	12:15pm Jeff Golick: @holland oats: Cool! Was she a good co-worker?
	12:15pm Webhamster Henry: I write the songs, Piano Man!
	12:15pm geezerette: Wow,my head did a 360! Ow!
	12:16pm 67tele: ooh Richard and The Captain shoulda had a dueling pianos act, and Karen and Tenille coulda sat by and smirked...
	12:16pm Dean: And Lemmy should have covered this one.
	12:16pm holland oats: @jeff laugh riot
	12:18pm Stanley: I surrender to these mellow sounds of yesteryear.
	12:19pm geezerette: @Brian No & not gonna! Did a spit take and I'm drinking Sumatra. So love is not having to say you're sorry but you must surrender.
	12:19pm Webhamster Henry: Free Designy Karen
	12:19pm chromaphone: My 20 month old son and I danced around to the Free Design this morning UM :) So far he likes Kites are Fun and Bubbles.
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: Those are the two best songs!
	12:20pm still b/p: Hm...Karen and Toni together mighta been capable of some interesting fabulous old song fun duets and satisfying belting and entertaining old school stage performance song treatments....all that.
	12:21pm Stanley: I love the expression 'Don't piss on my parade'
	12:21pm geezerette: I've surrendered and now I'm putting on this funny costume they gave me.
	12:21pm 67tele: amen to the Free Design love
	12:23pm Stanley: This this doesn't sound like the Grateful Dead to me.
	12:26pm geezerette: chromophone you are a great mommy!...or daddy...
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: "blah, blah, blah" anyone else catch that?
	12:29pm geezerette: I'm being won over UM! Never thought possible.
	12:30pm ndbob: excellent show UM - be back after my appointment if the show is still on
	12:30pm Parq: Must be pretty atypical stuff -- we're what, seven songs into the set, and I didn't even catch who it is until I jumped over here to see who's doing "Clancy".
	12:32pm Dominick: That is a well set up Wurlitzer!
	12:32pm 67tele: this is the happiest sad there is...
	12:32pm geezerette: So Richard is actually a jazz guy,kinda.
	12:33pm Webhamster Henry: Uncle Michael is the master of the Guiltless Pleasure Deep Cut.
	12:35pm 67tele: @Henry i agree
	12:35pm Dean: Imagine if Karen had lived The Carpenters sharing a stage with fellow Downey, CA, denizens The Blasters.
	12:36pm geezerette: Dean!hahaha!
	12:37pm Dean: I'm more than half serious.
	12:37pm geezerette: Dave and Karen sing Dustbowl Ballads.
	12:37pm Dean: There y'are!
	12:38pm 67tele: the Casters? There were some people like that but I think they did something different
	12:38pm βrian: "Straight Outta Downey"
	12:38pm listener james from westwood: Holy crow, Francis E. Dec.
	12:38pm geezerette: :DDDD!
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: Dec. Something I never thought I'd hear on Hinky Dinky Time.
	12:39pm Dominick: oh boy! Dec via Doc
	12:40pm hyde: aw, hell. i ate lunch outside and miseed a whole set of the Carpenters? le sigh.
	12:40pm Goyim in the AM: It's worth googling images of Dec's original letters.
	12:40pm βrian: This is better than a bottle of Dr Bronner's!
	12:40pm Marie: @Listener James--you were the proofreader on that book? Neat. I am a proofreader/copyeditor too... at an advertising company... :>{ .... I hope more people become more aware of how the capitalism/christianity link was formed. Cheers!
	12:41pm Rich in Washington: Someone tracked down Brittan (?) and he sort of wants nothing to do with the Dec thing now but also seemed sort of miffed that it's blown up so big over the years without much props to him. I think his readings are fantastic.
	12:41pm geezerette: EEEEEEEEEEEEK-K-K-K!!!
	12:41pm Jeff Golick: Dec is new to me.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: I have (a facsimile) one of the flyers framed in my office.
	12:42pm chromaphone: wtf
	12:42pm geezerette: New to me too! Sounds so Fire Sign!
	12:43pm Lane Gray: I'm picturing this with a video like. Frank Capra's animated educational movies (I still love Hemo the Magnificent)
	12:43pm Dean: Sounds like he's reading from outtakes from Kenneth Koch's marvelous long poem, "When the Sun Tries to Go On."
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: www.bentoandstarchky.com...
	12:43pm Parq: Makes about as much sense as anything else I'm hearing or reading today.
	12:43pm geezerette: @Lane,yes!
	12:44pm 67tele: is this the same guy who used to post stuff on telephone poles?
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: Yes. These readings need a Craig Baldwin type found footage type movie treatment.
	12:44pm 67tele: yea pre-Internet wierdness
	12:44pm listener james from westwood: @Marie: Wow, fellow copyeditor/proofer here, too! Freelance in my case. I was indeed the Grem book's proofreader. Fascinating stuff; really went into the deeper origins of that relation between capitalism and XTianity.
	12:45pm geezerette: UM thanks for great link!
	12:45pm listener james from westwood: The cheerful delivery is the clincher here.
	12:45pm Lane Gray: Although I was an adult before I knew that was Capra.
	12:45pm Alex In Illinois: I think I heard this on the Subgenious Hour of slack back in the early 1990's
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, UM, what Parq said - this totally fits in today. Dec would run for office if he was alive today.
	12:45pm 67tele: this guy would have made a great advertising copywriter
	12:45pm Dean: Ex.: Is the basketball coach a homosexual lemon manufacturer? It is suspected by O'Ryan in his submarine. When I was a child we always cried to be driven for a ride in that submarine. Daddy would say Yes! Mommy would say No! The maid read Anna Karenina and told us secrets. Some suspected her of a liaison with O'Ryan. Nothing but squirrels Seemed to be her interest, at the windows, except on holidays, like Easter and Thanksgiving, when She would leave the basement and rave among the leaves, shouting, I am the Spirit of softball! Come to me!
	12:46pm geezerette: wow that was exhausting!
	12:46pm βrian: The Order of the Blue Pencil inducts thee.
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: @67tele: Indeed. My first ever forays on the web was tracking down Dec, leading me to the Kooks Museum, which I would visit nearly every time I was online in the mid=90s.
	12:46pm Parq: Lane, I didn't know Hemo the Mag was Capra until you said it just now.
	12:47pm 67tele: ha ha so there Burroughs
	12:49pm geezerette: Found Church of Sub Genius,Laughing Squid and Kooks Museum in 90s too. Also Deoxy.org.
	12:51pm βrian: Bob have mercy on us.
	12:51pm Rich in Washington: @geezerette: Yep. Me too. And Schwa, Snake Oil.
	12:51pm geezerette: :D
	12:52pm Rich in Washington: Kooks Museum & Kooks book author Donna Kossy lives in Portland and is a pal. She sells crazy books and pamphlets in her online store.
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Dec was ahead of his time: www.nytimes.com...
	12:53pm Rich in Washington: Dec would be Trump's policy adviser, press sec'ty
	12:53pm geezerette: It was like finding a stack of old Mad Magazines. So much fun.
	12:53pm Marie: @ James--yeah, that's kind of "funny" (or something) that we both do that. I am going to have to check that book out! (see if you missed anything... just kiddink!). I realized freelance didn't suit me as well as a F-T position.
	12:56pm Rich in Washington: @geezerette: it was like crack for the brain. In some ways, those early days when I was only sporadically online were so magic - the web hadn't been totally taken over by business creeps and mediocretins. Just arty weirdos.
	12:56pm βrian: Is there a credit for clicker, UM?
	12:56pm geezerette: UM,oh no! Not funny but sad.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Brian? What? I don't understand.
	12:58pm geezerette: @Rich: I completely agree and that was what got me hooked. It was magical and really kind of hippy.
	12:58pm mauri: all the best um! im listening and setting up a tent on an island on lake saimaa. perfect.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: great mauri! happy to be there with you!
	12:59pm still b/p: A re-gripe from Cranky McCrankface: What I see printed and published and posted -- everything from ads and brochures to news articles of all kinds and even museum wall text/labels -- makes a person think proofreaders are extinct or mythical. Bless the work of the survivors.
	1:00pm βrian: ... on the Spanish Wine track.
	1:00pm βrian: @mauri: Any mosquitos thereabouts?
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: If Bob survives this year it'll be some kind of miracle.
	1:01pm geezerette: @still b/p: Amen! Proof readers and editors are heroes.
	1:02pm geezerette: @Jeff G.: Is he not well?
	1:02pm Dean: A lot of Planet Waves strikes me in the same way. But, yeah, BotT and "Buckets," in particular, are pinnacles.
	1:03pm listener james from westwood: @still b/p: We're out there! We're not always hired for the jobs that need doing, what with austerity and shifting markets redirecting $ from quality control, but some of us are still on staff here and there, preventing eyerolls in museums or while reading ads. And some of us not on staff tote pens for guerrilla edits....
	1:05pm 67tele: some interesting links, all. thanks.
	1:05pm βrian: Well, getting a little peckish, so I'm off the the Gavage cart.
	1:06pm mauri: good summer breeze over freshwater keeping mosquitos away and hair in style.
	🛒 1:08pm Brian in UK: Hey mauri have a good hair day with beer.
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: @geezerette: not that I know of; was more commenting on how messed up this year has been so far...
	🛒 1:10pm Brian in UK: No relation to Billericay Dickie?
	1:10pm Dean: Dylan played here a couple weeks ago across the street from my office. Closed the final night with ... "Free Bird"!
	1:11pm mauri: ta brian. woke up with a hair like brian may
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: Dave's not doing very well.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: How has Robin Zander not lost a step? How?
	1:14pm Dean: Practice, practice, practice.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Wayne Kramer on this track!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: His voice has held up.
	1:15pm geezerette: @Jeff G,: Oh good. No argument on year so far. Dreading November.
	1:16pm geezerette: Wayne Kramer!!!
	1:16pm listener james from westwood: Is it too early to say, at the 4-hour-ish mark, that this show is a fucking blast? Or should I wait until I've heard everything?
	1:16pm Jeff Golick: @Dean: oh you were at that show? V nice. Read about it online. It's like the flipside of the Judas concert.
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Better say it now.
	1:17pm listener james from westwood: THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING BLAST!
	1:18pm 67tele: what he said
	1:18pm Rich in Washington: Gawd, this song teleports me back to my freshman year in high school.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Thanks James.
	1:19pm Dean: @Jeff G.: No, I wasn't there, but I work across the street from the venue. Alas, not even late enough to hear a note. I don't know the Judas (Priest, I assume) reference...?
	1:19pm geezerette: @listener James: YES YES YES!!!
	1:21pm still b/p: Fucking blast! Now I can say, "Yes, I am on fb!"
	1:21pm Goyim in the AM: Was Billy Thorpe a one hit wonder, or does he have a hidden back catalog I need to know about?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Dig into the Aztecs.
	1:23pm Goyim in the AM: Will do, at 2115 Central European Daylight Time.
	1:25pm listener jeff: I remember the good old days when Dave the Spazz used this song for his mic break music a lot!
	1:26pm listener james from westwood: @listener jeff: Yes indeed!
	1:26pm geezerette: Yup!
	1:26pm Dean: I played America's Greatest Hits LP yesterday. Not a conceivable thought in high school.
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: Oh, @Dean. www.bbc.com... (Or are you pulling my leg?)
	1:31pm listener jeff: These are good old days too. Just different good and different days.
	1:33pm Alex In Illinois: Just in case people in the far future are reading this: "Gee, this sure is a long time ago!"
	1:35pm listener james from westwood: indiscreet heart / sweetheart is a cherry of a rhyme.
	1:36pm Dean: No, @Jeff, I was serious. I now recall having heard the "Judas" story, but like so much it didn't stick with me. I recently heard an interview with ... somebody (again, didn't stick) ... regarding Newport (not Manchester). The interviewee tried to argue that the booing at Newport had nothing to do with Dylan's going electric. Rather, it had to do with an extreme delay in the band's appearance and a really short show, because the band had only rehearsed at moment's notice a few tunes. Or something to that effect.
	1:37pm Webhamster Henry: Roy Smeck is always welcome!
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: He was the first guitar hero.
	1:39pm Goyim in the AM: Paganini would beg to differ.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: I stipulate "guitar hero" as a pop phenomena.
	1:40pm 67tele: wow i have a Roy Smeck guitar (Harmony company made them - mines from 1961)- its the black one in my little thingy next to the red Tele
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Roy merits knowing about.
	1:41pm Lane Gray: It's a shame that air travel was scarce and expensive in the 30s. A Smeck-Formby duet would have been entertaining
	1:42pm listener james from westwood: Marty!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Was george really a virtuoso?
	1:43pm Dean: @Jeff G.: It was Sound Opinions, to which I rarely listen, but when I'm in the car and it's on I'll give it an ear. The "somebody" was, for crying out loud, Al Kooper. Yeah, he's a somebody alright. The discussion about Newport is around the 50 min. point: https://podcast-stream.wbez.org/sound_opinions/audio/548-bob-dylan-at-75-from-protest-to-plugging-in.mp3
	1:44pm Goyim in the AM: cue boring lecture about distinctions between pop and classical music being in themselves modern and not relevant in 18th music; playlist commenters rise as one to kill G in the A.
	1:45pm geezerette: This show makes me SO DAMN HAPPY! :D
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: You're right GitA. If I had time, I'd defend my position!
	1:47pm Goyim in the AM: I totally get your point -- mine is more about the weird phenomenon of Paganini the pop star and his ability to sell guitars and violins, UM. There are clear parallels!
	1:53pm Lane Gray: He was quite good, and masked his goodness in the cheese.
	1:55pm hyde: wow, i have never heard this unreleased Trout Mask stuff. dang.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: I get you, Goyim.
	1:57pm ndbob: and back
	1:58pm northguineahills: About time you rep Turkmenistan! Howdies UM!
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: Hey NGH!
	2:01pm Jeff Golick: If "Skip Bifferty" didn't exist, Uncle Michael would've had to invent him. SKIP BIFFERTY!! It's almost an Arthur Miller two-fer!
	2:01pm Lane Gray: I'm on Officer Daryl Hall Memorial Highway
	2:01pm βrian: @NGH: Done with USCIS, these days?
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: Bifferty bofferty boo.
	2:07pm Parq: Loving this pseudo-Spanish hit.
	2:12pm Jeff Golick: Well, here's another one for the "we're going to need a bigger crypt" file: Michael "Dispatches" Herr, RIP.
	2:13pm Alex In Illinois: I actually would send you that if I found it and remembered, because in your hands, it will get shared on your webcast. Now if anyone here finds a concertina or a button accordion anywhere, it might be dangerous, so you must send it to me immediately.
	2:13pm Mike Sin: Just jumping in to say it was nice to hear someone else play that band "Blue" on the radio. I didn't discover them until the 21st century through a Jimmy McCulloch connection. Did those RSO LPs ever see the light of day on CD? Anyway, very much enjoying the show.
	2:13pm listener james from westwood: Just saw that, Jeff. Chris Jones of Esquire appears to have an appreciation up online.
	🛒 2:13pm Brian in UK: @Jeff that takes me back a ways.
	2:14pm Parq: Aw, Merle.
	2:14pm Dean: Wow, Michael Herr. RIP, indeed.
	2:15pm chromaphone: Found a great recent performance of youtube from this group
	🛒 2:16pm Brian in UK: Uncle, heading for the kitchen and beer or something stronger to assuage my sorrows. Saints preserve us from small minds.
	2:16pm chromaphone: on youtube not of
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: See you Brian! Lane, Greg Leisz is on this record.
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: Mike, I do think the Blue stuff got re-released.
	2:19pm Lane Gray: Cool. Greg is quite the picker
	2:23pm Webhamster Henry: Maybe we can have Sammy Appreciation day?
	2:23pm 67tele: this S D Jr cut is kind of the musical equiv of chewing up the scenery - much like his other shtuff
	2:24pm geezerette: Sammy Davis was a genius.
	2:24pm βrian: Moths to the flame. Reminds me of Joe Frank.
	2:24pm 67tele: oops i mean his other shinki
	2:25pm geezerette: Everybody sing!
	2:28pm 67tele: Beaunanza
	2:28pm geezerette: Was he from Quebec?
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: EVERYBODY SING!
	2:28pm Doug Schulkind: This is a hall-of-fame freeform set, Mr Uncle.
	🛒 2:29pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Everyone. Babs has nothing on Fanny! Keep on keepin on, Uncle Marathon!
	2:29pm geezerette: I'll say!
	2:29pm Webhamster Henry: Not the only french singing American movie star: wfmu.org...
	2:30pm Doug Schulkind: Bookened by Fred Flintstone and Delia Derbyshire. Somewhere, a freeform angel just received her wings.
	2:30pm hyde: i'm not a dr who nerd, but i am a delia derbyshire nerd
	2:31pm geezerette: :D !!!
	2:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Everybody do the twister twist!
	2:31pm βrian: What, you didn't read Le Petit Prince, UM?
	2:34pm Doug Schulkind: The estate-sale auction from my parents' house has started online. You, too, can relive my childhood, by scrolling through all the crapola: www.ebth.com...
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Brian, "as read by Lorne Greene."
	2:39pm Jeff Golick: Wow, @Doug. That must be weird to see. It's weird for me to see. Great chairs, btw!
	2:40pm Goyim in the AM: There are some beautiful things there, Doug. I will send the link to some Maryland and DC friends.
	2:41pm Parq: Gotta cut, UM. Some chores that can't wait await. Good week, champ.
	2:42pm johnk77: uk devolution good day to listen to cool and crazy music from a black irishman and a selecter on fyah
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: You can do anything you want to do, Parq!
	2:43pm johnk77: phil lynott loved clover rip
	🛒 2:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for the 1/4 day , Unc. Gotta scoot, too
	2:44pm ndbob: great version of this song
	2:45pm Mike East: Thanks for the Thin Lizzy...really needed that. Hey Johnk77!!
	2:45pm hyde: i have to work til 4. are you sure you don't want to do a 7 hour show?
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. See you early-departers later!
	2:46pm johnk77: @mikeeast keepin it real workin for a livin
	2:47pm Doug Schulkind: It is bizarre to see the everyday objects from my childhood home on such display. There are also some some incredibly valuable items in there sitting with bids of $1. Extremely harrowing. Thank God I will be moving out of Internet range tomorrow when I get to Maine (unless our cabin has Wifi), so I won't obsess over this. @Goyim in the AM Thanks, mate! My mother was an artist (many of her pieces are included in the auction) and she and father amassed a significant collection.
	2:48pm hyde: @Doug there's some great objects in there. good luck!
	2:49pm V Priceless: Thanks Uncle M! Swell show (I missed a bit...will catch the archive). Cheers!
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: Don't stop now, @UM. You're just getting going.
	2:51pm Listener Scott: Home stretch! Thanks UM.
	2:52pm listener james from westwood: Holy shit, I had not yet heard Portishead's cover of this. Fucking prescient.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I may make it. A 6% Glen Jones!
	2:53pm Jeff Golick: High Rise = the JG Ballard book-turned-movie?
	2:54pm Jeff Golick: (If so, that book has one of the more memorable first lines of recent times.)
	2:54pm geezerette: Quoting listener james from westwood: "THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING BLAST!" Thanks UM!
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. I'll spend the week in rehab and meet you all back here next Friday.
	2:57pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: Outstanding, @UM. Thank you!
	2:57pm V Priceless: dang! Stranglers too! Woo! U rock, Unc!
	2:58pm hyde: thanks UM, huge show!
	2:58pm still b/p: Hear hear! This show has been hours of entertainment! Also, we've spoken of auctions and the Maine coast and proofreading. This involves all three: a video for auction of very a high end property on the island Isleboro boasts of the region's early sun and says, “…that's because these islands are 300 miles farther east than any other point in the United States." That's crazy wrong, unless I'm confused, it's bafflingly waaaaaay off. Even Doug will be farther east in Stonington; much of the NE United States is within 300 miles. I can't figure what angle of geography, distance or common sense got kerflugled. Among all the people involved, no one said, "Wait a minute..." A little proofing, maybe, when you're pitching a many-million dollar product...?
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Four losses in a row, and you're headed to rehab? It's a long season, Uncle Michael! Not six hours long, but pretty long. You are my hero, Uncle M. I should take more vacations, just to hear you make such outsize brilliant radio.
	3:02pm listener james from westwood: Thanks most kindly for the mega-show, UM! These are always fun!
	3:04pm Goyim in the AM: Very good stuff, UM!
	3:06pm Uncle Michael: Thank you mi migas!
	10:30pm hoss cartwright: This archive is just 5:46:28 long when it BREXITS 90 seconds into Vanity Fare . . . . which still tours - not with anyone on the hits, but their drummer who retired last year went back to 1972.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from June 24, 2016

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.

	🛒 8:45am Brian in UK: Live from Uncle's back yard with grass cutter cam (as opposed to leaf blower guy). It's no yawn on your lawn.
	🛒 8:47am Brian in UK: Nice photograph, the skies over the UK today; and I do not mean just the weather.
	8:52am Uncle Michael: It's an ill wind that blows. No good.

	9:02am Andrew Waterloo: dammit, UK
	9:03am listener james from westwood: How do, UM and all! @Brian: Deepest sympathies. I've been suppressing a rage-stroke all morning.
	9:04am Andrew Waterloo: I haven't heard from my UK coworkers, yet. But, they're in New Castle, the first place to vote Remain.
	9:05am hyde: Brexit wins and Ralph Stanley dies. This is no fun.
	9:05am Uncle Michael: Doc! Brian! Bob! Annie! James! Andrew!
	9:09am Uncle Michael: Hyde! how is everyone?
	9:09am listener james from westwood: I have a former workmate, a Yorkshireman living in the US, who took himself off Facebook years ago bc he couldn't keep from getting keyed up and pulled into online rows, for whom I'm genuinely concerned right now. He could well stress himself into the hospital over this.
	9:15am doctorjazz: Have some personal problems resulting from the Brexit vote as well, man, this is the year voters defy the pundits (and common sense).
	9:15am Andrew Waterloo: I was in New Castle last week and the Sun was just brutal. We didn't talk about it.
	9:17am Andrew Waterloo: unfortunately the voters are going to got owned a long with everyone else.
	9:17am duke: Howdy UM and lsiteners
	9:18am hyde: awwww, there he is. One of the greats.
	9:21am Dominick: very nice
	🛒 9:21am Brian in UK: Mr Clawhammer has gone. Hell.
	9:25am Alex In Illinois: I've been here, listening. I heard the into and all. I've been too busy to comment so far.
	9:25am Jeff Golick: Hi. This is the weirdest year ever. I blame...uh... (Ps. Sorry for the old HDT link in today's email, folks. I'm no Doug.)
	9:26am listener james from westwood: Feels less like the restoration of empire and more like a sickening lurch into the V for Vendetta future.
	9:27am Listener Scott: Glad to have you for six hours UM. Nice surprise.
	🛒 9:27am Brian in UK: England, that is to say not London, voted out not the UK. And to cap it all there is bluddy Glastonbury, headliners, Coldplay and Adele.
	9:28am Uncle Michael: Duke! Alex! Jeff! Scott!
	9:30am Goyim in the AM: Trying to look at the bright side: this might be a good time to order that fine handcrafted English bass guitar, at least until the luthiers have to burn their wood stocks for fuel. Morning, all. Trying to avoid any far right glee here in Austria, successful so far.
	9:30am Alex In Illinois: Gotta attend a meeting now. I'l lbe back later.
	9:30am Jeff Golick: @Brian in UK: I actually had to google that lineup as I didn't believe you.
	9:31am Uncle Michael: Goyim!
	9:32am listener james from westwood: Bomb Squad production was fierce right out o the gate on PE's discs.
	🛒 9:33am Brian in UK: @Jeff cutting edge. @Goyim, Far right in Holland & France have already called for referedums in their countries.
	9:36am A Phlebotomist Writes: We are all the same color under the skin.
	9:36am annie: here in NC, we in asheville want to crete the new state of West Carolina. raleigh is doing everything in its power to destroy asheville.
	🛒 9:37am Brian in UK: Is this Arthur J Prysock. The TS Eliot tribute poet.
	9:38am hyde: oh wow, Arthur Prysock sang the "Let it be Lowenbrau" beer ad
	9:38am Uncle Michael: Welcome Phleb!
	9:38am Goyim in the AM: @Brian they are surely doing it here too, I just haven't had the stomach to look yet. 'scuse me a moment while I go wallow in filth...
	9:40am Mr C: Burn Baby Burn. Old Arthur Prysock socks it to Studio 54.
	9:41am Goyim in the AM: @Brian. Yup. Just got introduced to the word Öxit. Now what the hell am I supposed to do with all these Outstria t-shirts I ordered to get rich off of?
	9:42am Uncle Michael: Mornin' Mr. C.
	9:43am ndbob: @annie won't happen - movements like that never go anywhere
	9:44am listener james from westwood: @hyde: I THOUGHT that voice sounded familiar! Deep-buried ad memories flooding back!
	9:45am Mike East: we did backline for Public Enemy earlier this week. Good morning, Hinky Dinkers!
	9:46am Uncle Michael: Mike! How was that experience?
	9:50am Mike East: Well, from my end it was mostly just reading emails, typing things into a computer and purchasing things like bass strings, drum sticks, guitar picks and turntable cartridges...so not really much fun. One of my colleagues actually got to go to the gig. By all accounts a great day at the park, but I doubt he really cared much about the music.
	🛒 9:51am Brian in UK: Uncle need to get some protein drinks and a massage to go the distance today.
	9:54am Webhamster Henry: I got a lot of "Let It Be Löwengard" in college.
	9:54am listener james from westwood: UM, cartoons were indeed my early tutelage in both classical music and the Great American Songbook.
	9:55am hyde: this Flamingos record has the best production ever
	9:56am annie: damn tootin' hyde; one of my faves..
	9:56am Uncle Michael: Hyde is correct!
	9:56am Lewis: is this slowed down just a tad...?
	9:58am Alex In Illinois: What is that 2 syllable word that is echoes in that Flamingos song?
	9:58am Uncle Michael: Good catch Lewis. Corrected...thank you!
	10:01am still b/p: Goo' morning. Don't think I recognized Hot Canary, but...well, it completes me. Regarding cartoon/life reference and integration and influence -- I was trying yesterday to figure out how succinctly I could describe Clyde Crashcup (and his Richard Haydn-mimicking voice) and his shtick to someone as an example of a character option they might try in stage performance.
	10:02am listener james from westwood: Would never have known about cumbia or Chicha Libre if not for FMU. Eternally grateful.
	10:04am Uncle Michael: Good morning still b/p. That's cool, James. I'm still trying to track down the first cumbia sonidera that I heard over 25 years ago.
	10:04am βrian: Tumbled in through the laundry chute. Good morning.
	10:04am annie: yeah, i think it was fmu for the intro to cumbia, but i also listen to the saturday brazilian shows on OZ.. crossover exposure i guess
	10:04am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	10:05am listener james from westwood: @βrian: If you saw any of my black socks, tell them they are missed.
	10:06am βrian: I do hope Trump doesn't return. He seems to have found his spiritual home ...
	10:08am βrian: Are they the ribbed garter hose, James? No nonsense there.
	10:09am 67tele: hey hey
	10:10am Uncle Michael: Paisley '67 Tele, perchance?
	10:10am βrian: Next up, will Topeka vote to stay or to leave?
	10:10am Webhamster Henry: I've always been interested in cartoon music, and the large amounts of Raymond Scott played on WFMU was attractive to me! Carl Stalling's soundtracks for Warners, bereft of Mel Blanc and other voices are on the Carl Stalling Project recordings. At MGM, Scott Bradley did admirable work. Then there's also the great Fleischer Brothers sound tracks. The idea of an almost free associative yet rigorously programmatic music is very appealing!
	10:12am 67tele: no mine's an overpainted red scratched up Tele with 'Damn Shambles' spraypainted on the back (kinda like 'Fang' from Paul Revere and...)
	10:14am hyde: @Webhamster Henry i want to hear that record of Max Fleischer cartoon music that Gary Lucas put out earlier this year
	10:15am still b/p: Whenever a cumbia begins here it pulls me out of my slouch. A brief attempt to learn to dance the cumbia 15 years ago was...how do you say "not a smashing success" in Spanish? And how do you say "I just improv some other damn thing instead?"
	10:17am βrian: You'll have to explain "Slug Bug" to the kids, Uncle Michael.
	10:23am Uncle Michael: If you see a VW Beetle, hit someone.
	10:24am V Priceless: Hey Uncle M!
	10:24am Uncle Michael: VP!
	10:27am sinner: ...no, no. Cubs vote to leave the National League.
	10:28am Uncle Michael: sinner...umm...
	10:30am still b/p: A young lady in the midwest introduced me to this one: when a car with just one headlight on -- a "perdiddle" -- approaches, it's kiss time. So if a VW with a light out comes by...do you get pucker punched?
	10:32am Uncle Michael: Fake Vanilla Fudge!
	10:32am V Priceless: zactly!!
	10:32am Dominick: exactly what I was about to say
	10:33am βrian: Those midwestern women!
	10:34am Uncle Michael: Dom!
	10:34am Uncle Michael: fake Harry!
	🛒 10:35am Brian in UK: Something about a coconut?
	10:41am Little Danny: Go Uncle Michael!
	10:43am 67tele: @still: pucker punch! love it. I guess out here in Colorado that perdiddle might morph into the Spanish 'perdido' or lost... perhaps it's its root?
	10:46am Uncle Michael: Hey Danny!
	10:46am Webhamster Henry: Someone did a paradiddle on the headlight, apparently.
	10:46am Webhamster Henry: So, when are you getting around to Borscht Riders In The Sky?
	10:48am Dominick: this makes me feel dirty
	10:48am Uncle Michael: I dunno, Henry...I have it. it's umm...pretty...it's something.
	10:49am Little Danny: I am hoping this turns into whole set of '50s pop vocal harmonies. COME AT ME LETTERMEN
	10:50am Jeff Golick: The Brexit vote looks very city vs. country, which is feeling evermore like the eternal divide - here, there, everywhere. Now vs. then; tradition vs. new vistas; polyglot vs. uniform. Depressing.
	10:50am still b/p: "Ominousness has been removed from this version of Riders In The Sky to protect the sensitive listener." @ 67tele -- Wiki takes us to mysterious Westchester County. NY, for origins and variation stories
	10:51am Marie: I love your tune selections UM. Thanks!
	10:51am Uncle Michael: Thank you Marie!
	10:52am βrian: Back from a Señor Coconut interlude.
	10:53am Uncle Michael: I love Senor Coconut!
	10:53am ndbob: @Jeff not quite city v country - some fairly large cities voted to leave - but definitely young v old
	10:55am Jeff Golick: @ndbob: Ah. Well, then all we have to do is stop the aging process.
	10:55am βrian: Seems like some folks just wanted to pitch some bricks, and the Brexit vote seemed to provide a lot of ammo.
	10:57am 67tele: wow this willie hutch sounds creepily like the monkey time...wonder which came first, the monkey or the duck? seems to be a good example of the ol'copycat cash in
	10:58am Little Danny: Willie Hutch: maybe the greatest northern double-sider?
	10:59am Uncle Michael: For others to judge, Danny. Not my bailiwick.
	11:01am ndbob: One of the most bizarre things about Twitter during the Brexit vote was the endless series of impassioned Tweets by Lindsay Lohan for the Remain campaign
	11:01am Rich in Washington: I forgot that this was bonus Hinky Dinky time. Nice surprise to wake up to. Greetings, everyone!
	11:01am ndbob: Even Reuters commented on it
	11:02am Marie: Has anyone been paying attention to the "smart city" movement? I am just starting to learn about it. Methinks it bears attention and I am very skeptical. Seems like another example of the notion that digitization can solve all problems and a potential way for certain people to gain power over others.
	11:03am Dean: Maybe the United States should vote to return to England? We could start wearing powdered wigs again.
	11:04am hyde: @ndbob haha, i didn't see that!
	11:05am doctorjazz: My ears perked up, the sound of Jerry!
	11:05am Jeff Golick: @ndbob: The Lohan tweets were a thing of (bizzare, utterly odd) beauty.
	11:05am Uncle Michael: Rich! Dean! Just in time!
	11:05am Jeff Golick: Saw this, too: "When history books are written, they will sat that Brexit could have been stopped had Lindsay Lohan expressed her opinions earlier."
	11:06am Lewis: TCU baby!
	11:06am 67tele: young, supple Jerry no less...
	11:06am annie: marie, agree... the more technology slips into our culture, the easier it is to control the population. i'm as off grid as i can be and still have my fmu to cheer me up.
	11:08am βrian: @Dean: Pity the dentists!
	11:08am Dean: @Marie: I was just reading this yesterday: https://nextcity.org/daily/entry/national-neighborhood-indicators-partnership-local-data-intermediary I share your skepticism. OTOH, I like this idea of local data intermediaries. Maybe that's because I work with folks who do this sort of thing, but not out of hunger for power. I remember this show, @UM! It was a Sunday. I got to miss school the next day.
	11:08am doctorjazz: Nice about a Dead jam, gives the DJ a chance for a bathroom break!
	11:10am Marie: Hi Annie, yeah, good way of putting it. I hate FB, don't tweet, and just put a piece of tape over my Mac webcam (as I just read Mark Zuckerberg did). I mean, all this is such fertile ground for all kinds of manipulations and for sci-fi writers.
	11:12am annie: the further a city administration can distance itself from the people, via wbsites, "surveys", and digital information, the more they can do behind our backs. i don't trust any city gubmint that promotes an "easier and more efficient" way to let them know how i feel
	11:12am Marie: Hey, Dean, yes, I am sure there can be multiple good uses. I think, right now at least, most of the manipulating will be/is of a commercial sort and a political sort.
	11:14am βrian: I don't remember ever not having my laptop lens taped over. I prefer text anyway.
	11:14am ndbob: @Jeff - Yep they were - not always the most articulate Tweets, but true
	11:15am Dean: "I have nothing to hide" is a common ill-informed refrain among some proponents of expanded insidious surveillance. But if anybody were to hack my laptop cam and get a load of my mug, he'd think otherwise. @Marie: The projects I'm thinking of involve making public documentation (e.g., federal, state, and local government records) readily available to all. The flow of information is in the opposite direction from, e.g., what @annie describes. Or at least that's how it's supposed to be.
	11:16am sinner: feller aint a-skeered of playin the Dead.
	11:16am 67tele: I too am as honest as a Denver man can be...
	11:17am Uncle Michael: I ain't-a-skeered of much.
	11:17am Jeff Golick: At least we have Fox News, for comic relief: www.mirror.co.uk...
	11:19am βrian: I can't do the identity-mediated-via-corporations thing, myself. A little twitter to monitor quickly changing events, but that's it.
	11:20am holland oats: now where was i
	11:20am ndbob: Right about government records Dean - most of the worrying seems tinged with conspiracy type thinking - and I won't go anywhere near there
	11:20am Jeff Golick: I'm scared of almost everything. But twitter is killing it right now, in the gallows humor dept.: "has anybody written an article yet on what Brexit means for the Eagles"
	11:22am annie: seriously: Brexit stands for Britain/exit? i thought it was a cabal of countries waiting at the door to form a more perfect union.
	🛒 11:23am Brian in UK: @Jeff History might say Lindsay WHO.
	11:23am ndbob: It means to take it easy Jeff
	🛒 11:23am Brian in UK: 'till Europe freezes over.
	11:24am βrian: Scotland's sure to bolt now, n'est-ce pas?
	🛒 11:25am Brian in UK: Mais oui, jock.
	11:25am Dean: @ndbob, I myself share some of the worry, without resorting to conspiracy. Sheer ignorance explains a lot. And as Marie suggests, tech can be exploited for both good and eevil. Maybe somebody should start a Breturn movement? Or Brinever Mind? Bron Second Thought?
	11:26am ndbob: Most likely Brian - remains to be seen when a good time for another vote is - I was strongly opposed to independence last time - maybe not this time
	11:26am annie: is ths almost over? this GD?
	11:26am Marie: I don't really fear government conspiracies as much as "undue" corporate influence. A book was published recently about a certain business that paid preachers in the US South (not sure exactly when) to say capitalism was Christian. The author was interviewed on NPR--"Fresh Air"--a professor of history at the Univ. Of Illinois.
	11:26am doctorjazz: Had to step out for a bit, returned, still Dead, something constant to hang on to... (this is a great set! Lesh doesn't get the credit for what happens, at least not as much as Garcia, but he really moves things and ups the ante)
	11:26am Dean: annie: You mean "this GD Grateful Dead jam"?
	🛒 11:26am Brian in UK: annie two more weeks.
	11:26am βrian: And what with the clamor of Le Pennistes, can France be far behind?
	11:27am annie: ....you guys said it all, Brian and Dean
	11:28am hyde: did Uncle Michael put this on and then go out to cut the lawn?
	🛒 11:28am Brian in UK: @βrian refer to comment at 9:33.
	11:28am annie: don't let UM know i said this but i really hate the GD GD
	11:29am ndbob: I'm not exactly a fan Annie - but that's OK:)
	11:30am holland oats: we are with you um
	11:30am listener james from westwood: 6 hours does indeed allow for the mega-jams! As does freedom from the grim toll of commercials.
	11:30am Stanley: Hi Gang. @Brian - dunno about you but I'm having a shite day
	11:31am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: And now a word from Kars for Kids.
	11:31am annie: i can tolerate it for a while, but the repetition gets old. i never did get their popularity. i still love you UM
	11:31am doctorjazz: Now, maybe I'm missing something, but wasn't the Brexit referendum NOT BINDING? While it expresses the will of the people, it doesn't automatically mean it is going to happen, no legal power. There will likely be some kind of effort to negate the vote, I'd guess.
	11:31am listener james from westwood: @Marie: was it "The Blessings of Business," by Grem, by any chance?
	🛒 11:31am Brian in UK: Stanley sorry to hear that, not working? Mine got better after I left work.
	11:32am βrian: @BUK: Oh dear. On the other hand, Scotland could move to the right side of the road, as a first step.
	11:32am Doug Schulkind: Greetings from Brookline, Mass. My daughter is on a college tour at Harvard and I am lounging in a breezy apartment next to Michael Dukakis' house. Heading to Maine tomorrow morning!
	11:33am annie: yes, djazz, i saw that comment ... i think there's more to it than meets the eye
	11:33am βrian: Have a steamed bug for us, Doug.
	11:33am Stanley: @βrian: we're already talking about Indyref 2
	11:33am listener james from westwood: Brookline! Good memories of my Boston College years near there.
	11:33am Dean: Hie thee to Weirdo Records, Doug!
	11:33am listener james from westwood: You miiiight be able to get WZBC from there, depending on how many of yinz have metal fillings.
	🛒 11:34am Brian in UK: Hey Doug, Pittsexit. Mainesremains.
	11:35am hyde: @Dean yeah, that's a good store
	🛒 11:35am Brian in UK: Stanley, a beverage my friend.
	11:35am βrian: TurnpikExit?
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: @ βrian Steamed bugs ARE Maine.
	11:36am Uncle Michael: Doug!
	11:36am Parq: < spit take > James, you worked for ZBC? I was Music Director in 1977 and did my last show there in July '79.
	11:36am Stanley: THanks Brian. Got a plan to have a sullen sup around 6pm.
	11:36am βrian: I can almost imagine NJ voting for independence from NY ...
	11:37am ndbob: @srjazz Yes that's true - but I can't imagine them not following through on it - there's years of negotiation to go through - no one is exactly sure how it will proceed from here.
	11:37am annie: so, wait, how old it the EU anyway?
	11:38am listener james from westwood: @Parq: Nope, just a listener while attending BC. A school pal did DJ there, however (this would've been 87-91).
	11:38am Parq: Annie, I read 41 years.
	11:38am Dean: @hyde: I've been there only once. I got off the T and walked to the store hoping to find the Borbetomagus/Hijokaidan CD on Victo. As you know the inventory isn't that extensive. It's the, uh, weirdness that's so compelling. I swear I could smell the disk when I entered the store. Indeed, they had it.
	11:39am annie: hhhm.. 41 years
	11:39am doctorjazz: There was a strong movement for a while for Staten Island to secede from New York (it really DOES belong in Jersey), but it fizzled. Same sort of arguments, would be bad for the borough, etc.
	11:40am Stanley: If it weren't for WFMU I'd commit kamikaze.
	🛒 11:40am Brian in UK: @annie we joined the EEC (European Economic Community) in'73. Confirmed in '75. This morphing into the EU later.
	11:41am Doug Schulkind: Back when New York and New Jersey were fighting over which state got to claim Ellis Island, I remember wishing that we (New York) could just give New Jersey Staten Island instead.
	11:41am hyde: @Dean oh crap! i was going to say i hadn't been there in years, and i just googled it and they closed last year ;(
	11:42am βrian: One more plate of adzuki beans, one more divine wind.
	11:42am Uncle Michael: I'd commit kama sutracide.
	🛒 11:42am Brian in UK: Stanley we have music and beer. I cannot stand the oxygen that the press give to Farridge, pathetic little toe rag.
	11:42am Mike East: @Doug - We (NJ) would have given it back.
	11:42am annie: it's very interesting that the euro currency is just under 20 years old.
	11:43am doctorjazz: Hey, Doug, College Tour! Harvard! Pretty cool. Just finished all that stuff myself, younger daughter's High School Graduation is this afternoon, college in the fall. Good Luck with it all, fun trip to you all!
	11:43am βrian: Hara-tickly is my solution.
	11:43am Jeff Golick: Is Newbury Comics still a thing?
	11:43am 67tele: thinking of doing a Worxit and clocking out early today in sympathy
	11:44am Mike East: Years ago, there was a call for new mottos for NJ and some Brooklyn bred friends of mine suggested "New Jersey: Hey, at least its not Staten Island"
	11:44am still b/p: Doug, I was up in Tenants Harbor a week ago for a day's visit where a friend was staying in a quiet little place. Gooood midcoast medicine.
	11:44am Marie: Hi Listerner James, no, I was referring to "One Nation Under God" by Kevin Kruse. (I had to go look it up.) "The Blessings of Business" that you mentioned sounds great.
	11:45am hyde: @Jeff yeah, there's still a bunch of them. they're not really what they were, though
	11:45am listener james from westwood: @Jeff: I can only hope. I had the flagship Newbury, Tower Records, and a roleplaying game shop within a neat triangle via the Green Line. Very dangerous financially.
	11:46am Stanley: @Brian True dat. The rise of intolerance and stupidity is shocking. All we need is the US to vote in Trump, then we're all screwed.
	11:47am still b/p: There's a Newbury Comics near me in Maine. Just a few days ago I heard a young person complain about the comics focus being long gone there.
	11:48am Dean: @hyde: Goddammit!
	11:48am βrian: It's all about cartoons now.
	11:48am Dean: @UM: Before you broadcast Flemish, have the courtesy to depress the cough button.
	11:48am Konin: Hey Uncle! Lekker deuntje daar!
	11:49am listener james from westwood: @Marie: Due disclosure, I was Grem's proofreader. :) But it sounded so similar in content that I wondered if it were the book I proofed. Grem just came out, so I figured the author was doing press.
	11:49am still b/p: Lotta Damndutch....decent drag name.
	11:49am Jeff Golick: @ljfw: Yeah, I walked that walk. The Tower on Comm Ave.? I am fondly remembering rambling cluelessly around Harvard Sq. as a teen, hitting up used records stores and used clothing stores, looking for just the right overcoat. @βrian: I am agreeing with your "some folks wanted to pitch some bricks" comment above (!0:55). The degree to which this is true is...depressing.
	11:50am Doug Schulkind: @doctorjazz Congrats to you and the grad! @still b/p We are heading down east, as we always do. If anyone will be anywhere near Stonington on Deer Isle, come and see us!
	11:51am annie: stonington..deer isle.. i miss maine.. pass through brooklin and wave at them for me
	11:51am Rich in Washington: Where'd you score tamales, UM? A tamale man/lady with a cart roll by your place?
	11:53am Uncle Michael: No cart, sadly! Konin! In Walloon, si vous plais!
	11:53am annie: so, love to you all, i'm taking a nap with my head full of boogers and sneezing. the pistachio ice cream helped
	11:53am Marie: Love the Beef!
	11:53am Doug Schulkind: @annie I'm sure we'll stop at the Coo-op in Blue Hill. And the great bookstore.
	11:54am holland oats: @jeff - used to work at that tower... w mary lou lord!
	11:55am Konin: Alors, ca c'est autre chose, mon Oncle.
	11:55am Marie: Sounds like Ronnie James Dio!
	11:56am chromaphone: Looove Kyuss, nice.
	11:56am Uncle Michael: A little James Hetfield in him too.
	11:57am chromaphone: When I first heard them I thought he sounded like The Cult singer.
	11:58am Uncle Michael: Him too.
	11:58am 67tele: i don't take any shinki off anybody, but pass the speed and glue pls
	11:59am hyde: @Jeff Harvard Sq. used to have like 6 used bookstores, too. they're all pretty much gone, though Harvard Books still has used stuff. I was in the square one day after one of the big ones closed and they had just thrown a lot of the store contents into a huge dumpster and there was a frenzy of book addicts (like me) climbing into the thing and pawing through the discards.
	11:59am Uncle Michael: I don't know what Shinki is but this is the best band name ever.
	12:00pm 67tele: shinki dinky time soon?
	12:01pm Stanley: @βrian:(10:55) I agree and let's blame the immigrants
	12:01pm listener james from westwood: Diggin' the hell out of this track!
	12:01pm Dean: Grolier Poetry Bookshop still there?
	12:02pm geezerette: G'morning everybody.....doing laps in my coffee...don't know what shinki is either but it's waking me up!
	12:02pm hyde: @Dean yeah, that's still there
	12:03pm Stanley: Hot Leg? What were thinking, here?
	12:03pm Uncle Michael: Hinky Dinky wake up call!
	12:04pm Uncle Michael: Stanley...about rocking and ruling.
	12:04pm βrian: The Brits wanted their own chance to be immigrants again. (Why do Syrians get to have all the fun?)
	12:04pm doctorjazz: Been fun, off to graduation (Jeez...the baby..))
	12:05pm 67tele: fight for your right to get shinki with it
	12:06pm Stanley: UM - while hopping, I presume
	12:07pm Dean: Did he just sing, "get your Betty Boop on"?
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: hot and cold running legs
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: I sure hope so, Dean.
	🛒 12:08pm Brian in UK: @Stanley I am sure that the numbnuts of Little England weighed up the economic consequences of their vote along with any other concerns.
	12:10pm Dean: Maybe it was "Do you have any Grey Poupon."
	12:11pm Stanley: Unfortunately, the 350 million quid a week that they're after. may not materialise.
	12:11pm Lane Gray: I forgot this was the Pheidippides commemorative show
	12:12pm listener james from westwood: I think I've heard Diane Kamikaze use KIE-uss.
	12:12pm chromaphone: you got it Unkie.
	12:13pm listener james from westwood: Fun fact: Their name comes from Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.
	12:13pm geezerette: I come here for musical whiplash!
	12:14pm Dean: Boy, did King Fowley sing Karen's praises yesterday on Diane's show.
	12:14pm βrian: @geezerette: Have you signed the release form?
	12:14pm Dean: Billy Joel should cover this.
	12:15pm Jeff Golick: @holland oats: Cool! Was she a good co-worker?
	12:15pm Webhamster Henry: I write the songs, Piano Man!
	12:15pm geezerette: Wow,my head did a 360! Ow!
	12:16pm 67tele: ooh Richard and The Captain shoulda had a dueling pianos act, and Karen and Tenille coulda sat by and smirked...
	12:16pm Dean: And Lemmy should have covered this one.
	12:16pm holland oats: @jeff laugh riot
	12:18pm Stanley: I surrender to these mellow sounds of yesteryear.
	12:19pm geezerette: @Brian No & not gonna! Did a spit take and I'm drinking Sumatra. So love is not having to say you're sorry but you must surrender.
	12:19pm Webhamster Henry: Free Designy Karen
	12:19pm chromaphone: My 20 month old son and I danced around to the Free Design this morning UM :) So far he likes Kites are Fun and Bubbles.
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: Those are the two best songs!
	12:20pm still b/p: Hm...Karen and Toni together mighta been capable of some interesting fabulous old song fun duets and satisfying belting and entertaining old school stage performance song treatments....all that.
	12:21pm Stanley: I love the expression 'Don't piss on my parade'
	12:21pm geezerette: I've surrendered and now I'm putting on this funny costume they gave me.
	12:21pm 67tele: amen to the Free Design love
	12:23pm Stanley: This this doesn't sound like the Grateful Dead to me.
	12:26pm geezerette: chromophone you are a great mommy!...or daddy...
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: "blah, blah, blah" anyone else catch that?
	12:29pm geezerette: I'm being won over UM! Never thought possible.
	12:30pm ndbob: excellent show UM - be back after my appointment if the show is still on
	12:30pm Parq: Must be pretty atypical stuff -- we're what, seven songs into the set, and I didn't even catch who it is until I jumped over here to see who's doing "Clancy".
	12:32pm Dominick: That is a well set up Wurlitzer!
	12:32pm 67tele: this is the happiest sad there is...
	12:32pm geezerette: So Richard is actually a jazz guy,kinda.
	12:33pm Webhamster Henry: Uncle Michael is the master of the Guiltless Pleasure Deep Cut.
	12:35pm 67tele: @Henry i agree
	12:35pm Dean: Imagine if Karen had lived The Carpenters sharing a stage with fellow Downey, CA, denizens The Blasters.
	12:36pm geezerette: Dean!hahaha!
	12:37pm Dean: I'm more than half serious.
	12:37pm geezerette: Dave and Karen sing Dustbowl Ballads.
	12:37pm Dean: There y'are!
	12:38pm 67tele: the Casters? There were some people like that but I think they did something different
	12:38pm βrian: "Straight Outta Downey"
	12:38pm listener james from westwood: Holy crow, Francis E. Dec.
	12:38pm geezerette: :DDDD!
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: Dec. Something I never thought I'd hear on Hinky Dinky Time.
	12:39pm Dominick: oh boy! Dec via Doc
	12:40pm hyde: aw, hell. i ate lunch outside and miseed a whole set of the Carpenters? le sigh.
	12:40pm Goyim in the AM: It's worth googling images of Dec's original letters.
	12:40pm βrian: This is better than a bottle of Dr Bronner's!
	12:40pm Marie: @Listener James--you were the proofreader on that book? Neat. I am a proofreader/copyeditor too... at an advertising company... :>{ .... I hope more people become more aware of how the capitalism/christianity link was formed. Cheers!
	12:41pm Rich in Washington: Someone tracked down Brittan (?) and he sort of wants nothing to do with the Dec thing now but also seemed sort of miffed that it's blown up so big over the years without much props to him. I think his readings are fantastic.
	12:41pm geezerette: EEEEEEEEEEEEK-K-K-K!!!
	12:41pm Jeff Golick: Dec is new to me.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: I have (a facsimile) one of the flyers framed in my office.
	12:42pm chromaphone: wtf
	12:42pm geezerette: New to me too! Sounds so Fire Sign!
	12:43pm Lane Gray: I'm picturing this with a video like. Frank Capra's animated educational movies (I still love Hemo the Magnificent)
	12:43pm Dean: Sounds like he's reading from outtakes from Kenneth Koch's marvelous long poem, "When the Sun Tries to Go On."
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: www.bentoandstarchky.com...
	12:43pm Parq: Makes about as much sense as anything else I'm hearing or reading today.
	12:43pm geezerette: @Lane,yes!
	12:44pm 67tele: is this the same guy who used to post stuff on telephone poles?
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: Yes. These readings need a Craig Baldwin type found footage type movie treatment.
	12:44pm 67tele: yea pre-Internet wierdness
	12:44pm listener james from westwood: @Marie: Wow, fellow copyeditor/proofer here, too! Freelance in my case. I was indeed the Grem book's proofreader. Fascinating stuff; really went into the deeper origins of that relation between capitalism and XTianity.
	12:45pm geezerette: UM thanks for great link!
	12:45pm listener james from westwood: The cheerful delivery is the clincher here.
	12:45pm Lane Gray: Although I was an adult before I knew that was Capra.
	12:45pm Alex In Illinois: I think I heard this on the Subgenious Hour of slack back in the early 1990's
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, UM, what Parq said - this totally fits in today. Dec would run for office if he was alive today.
	12:45pm 67tele: this guy would have made a great advertising copywriter
	12:45pm Dean: Ex.: Is the basketball coach a homosexual lemon manufacturer? It is suspected by O'Ryan in his submarine. When I was a child we always cried to be driven for a ride in that submarine. Daddy would say Yes! Mommy would say No! The maid read Anna Karenina and told us secrets. Some suspected her of a liaison with O'Ryan. Nothing but squirrels Seemed to be her interest, at the windows, except on holidays, like Easter and Thanksgiving, when She would leave the basement and rave among the leaves, shouting, I am the Spirit of softball! Come to me!
	12:46pm geezerette: wow that was exhausting!
	12:46pm βrian: The Order of the Blue Pencil inducts thee.
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: @67tele: Indeed. My first ever forays on the web was tracking down Dec, leading me to the Kooks Museum, which I would visit nearly every time I was online in the mid=90s.
	12:46pm Parq: Lane, I didn't know Hemo the Mag was Capra until you said it just now.
	12:47pm 67tele: ha ha so there Burroughs
	12:49pm geezerette: Found Church of Sub Genius,Laughing Squid and Kooks Museum in 90s too. Also Deoxy.org.
	12:51pm βrian: Bob have mercy on us.
	12:51pm Rich in Washington: @geezerette: Yep. Me too. And Schwa, Snake Oil.
	12:51pm geezerette: :D
	12:52pm Rich in Washington: Kooks Museum & Kooks book author Donna Kossy lives in Portland and is a pal. She sells crazy books and pamphlets in her online store.
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Dec was ahead of his time: www.nytimes.com...
	12:53pm Rich in Washington: Dec would be Trump's policy adviser, press sec'ty
	12:53pm geezerette: It was like finding a stack of old Mad Magazines. So much fun.
	12:53pm Marie: @ James--yeah, that's kind of "funny" (or something) that we both do that. I am going to have to check that book out! (see if you missed anything... just kiddink!). I realized freelance didn't suit me as well as a F-T position.
	12:56pm Rich in Washington: @geezerette: it was like crack for the brain. In some ways, those early days when I was only sporadically online were so magic - the web hadn't been totally taken over by business creeps and mediocretins. Just arty weirdos.
	12:56pm βrian: Is there a credit for clicker, UM?
	12:56pm geezerette: UM,oh no! Not funny but sad.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Brian? What? I don't understand.
	12:58pm geezerette: @Rich: I completely agree and that was what got me hooked. It was magical and really kind of hippy.
	12:58pm mauri: all the best um! im listening and setting up a tent on an island on lake saimaa. perfect.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: great mauri! happy to be there with you!
	12:59pm still b/p: A re-gripe from Cranky McCrankface: What I see printed and published and posted -- everything from ads and brochures to news articles of all kinds and even museum wall text/labels -- makes a person think proofreaders are extinct or mythical. Bless the work of the survivors.
	1:00pm βrian: ... on the Spanish Wine track.
	1:00pm βrian: @mauri: Any mosquitos thereabouts?
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: If Bob survives this year it'll be some kind of miracle.
	1:01pm geezerette: @still b/p: Amen! Proof readers and editors are heroes.
	1:02pm geezerette: @Jeff G.: Is he not well?
	1:02pm Dean: A lot of Planet Waves strikes me in the same way. But, yeah, BotT and "Buckets," in particular, are pinnacles.
	1:03pm listener james from westwood: @still b/p: We're out there! We're not always hired for the jobs that need doing, what with austerity and shifting markets redirecting $ from quality control, but some of us are still on staff here and there, preventing eyerolls in museums or while reading ads. And some of us not on staff tote pens for guerrilla edits....
	1:05pm 67tele: some interesting links, all. thanks.
	1:05pm βrian: Well, getting a little peckish, so I'm off the the Gavage cart.
	1:06pm mauri: good summer breeze over freshwater keeping mosquitos away and hair in style.
	🛒 1:08pm Brian in UK: Hey mauri have a good hair day with beer.
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: @geezerette: not that I know of; was more commenting on how messed up this year has been so far...
	🛒 1:10pm Brian in UK: No relation to Billericay Dickie?
	1:10pm Dean: Dylan played here a couple weeks ago across the street from my office. Closed the final night with ... "Free Bird"!
	1:11pm mauri: ta brian. woke up with a hair like brian may
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: Dave's not doing very well.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: How has Robin Zander not lost a step? How?
	1:14pm Dean: Practice, practice, practice.
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Wayne Kramer on this track!
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: His voice has held up.
	1:15pm geezerette: @Jeff G,: Oh good. No argument on year so far. Dreading November.
	1:16pm geezerette: Wayne Kramer!!!
	1:16pm listener james from westwood: Is it too early to say, at the 4-hour-ish mark, that this show is a fucking blast? Or should I wait until I've heard everything?
	1:16pm Jeff Golick: @Dean: oh you were at that show? V nice. Read about it online. It's like the flipside of the Judas concert.
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Better say it now.
	1:17pm listener james from westwood: THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING BLAST!
	1:18pm 67tele: what he said
	1:18pm Rich in Washington: Gawd, this song teleports me back to my freshman year in high school.
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Thanks James.
	1:19pm Dean: @Jeff G.: No, I wasn't there, but I work across the street from the venue. Alas, not even late enough to hear a note. I don't know the Judas (Priest, I assume) reference...?
	1:19pm geezerette: @listener James: YES YES YES!!!
	1:21pm still b/p: Fucking blast! Now I can say, "Yes, I am on fb!"
	1:21pm Goyim in the AM: Was Billy Thorpe a one hit wonder, or does he have a hidden back catalog I need to know about?
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: Dig into the Aztecs.
	1:23pm Goyim in the AM: Will do, at 2115 Central European Daylight Time.
	1:25pm listener jeff: I remember the good old days when Dave the Spazz used this song for his mic break music a lot!
	1:26pm listener james from westwood: @listener jeff: Yes indeed!
	1:26pm geezerette: Yup!
	1:26pm Dean: I played America's Greatest Hits LP yesterday. Not a conceivable thought in high school.
	1:29pm Jeff Golick: Oh, @Dean. www.bbc.com... (Or are you pulling my leg?)
	1:31pm listener jeff: These are good old days too. Just different good and different days.
	1:33pm Alex In Illinois: Just in case people in the far future are reading this: "Gee, this sure is a long time ago!"
	1:35pm listener james from westwood: indiscreet heart / sweetheart is a cherry of a rhyme.
	1:36pm Dean: No, @Jeff, I was serious. I now recall having heard the "Judas" story, but like so much it didn't stick with me. I recently heard an interview with ... somebody (again, didn't stick) ... regarding Newport (not Manchester). The interviewee tried to argue that the booing at Newport had nothing to do with Dylan's going electric. Rather, it had to do with an extreme delay in the band's appearance and a really short show, because the band had only rehearsed at moment's notice a few tunes. Or something to that effect.
	1:37pm Webhamster Henry: Roy Smeck is always welcome!
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: He was the first guitar hero.
	1:39pm Goyim in the AM: Paganini would beg to differ.
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: I stipulate "guitar hero" as a pop phenomena.
	1:40pm 67tele: wow i have a Roy Smeck guitar (Harmony company made them - mines from 1961)- its the black one in my little thingy next to the red Tele
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Roy merits knowing about.
	1:41pm Lane Gray: It's a shame that air travel was scarce and expensive in the 30s. A Smeck-Formby duet would have been entertaining
	1:42pm listener james from westwood: Marty!
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: Was george really a virtuoso?
	1:43pm Dean: @Jeff G.: It was Sound Opinions, to which I rarely listen, but when I'm in the car and it's on I'll give it an ear. The "somebody" was, for crying out loud, Al Kooper. Yeah, he's a somebody alright. The discussion about Newport is around the 50 min. point: https://podcast-stream.wbez.org/sound_opinions/audio/548-bob-dylan-at-75-from-protest-to-plugging-in.mp3
	1:44pm Goyim in the AM: cue boring lecture about distinctions between pop and classical music being in themselves modern and not relevant in 18th music; playlist commenters rise as one to kill G in the A.
	1:45pm geezerette: This show makes me SO DAMN HAPPY! :D
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: You're right GitA. If I had time, I'd defend my position!
	1:47pm Goyim in the AM: I totally get your point -- mine is more about the weird phenomenon of Paganini the pop star and his ability to sell guitars and violins, UM. There are clear parallels!
	1:53pm Lane Gray: He was quite good, and masked his goodness in the cheese.
	1:55pm hyde: wow, i have never heard this unreleased Trout Mask stuff. dang.
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: I get you, Goyim.
	1:57pm ndbob: and back
	1:58pm northguineahills: About time you rep Turkmenistan! Howdies UM!
	1:59pm Uncle Michael: Hey NGH!
	2:01pm Jeff Golick: If "Skip Bifferty" didn't exist, Uncle Michael would've had to invent him. SKIP BIFFERTY!! It's almost an Arthur Miller two-fer!
	2:01pm Lane Gray: I'm on Officer Daryl Hall Memorial Highway
	2:01pm βrian: @NGH: Done with USCIS, these days?
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: Bifferty bofferty boo.
	2:07pm Parq: Loving this pseudo-Spanish hit.
	2:12pm Jeff Golick: Well, here's another one for the "we're going to need a bigger crypt" file: Michael "Dispatches" Herr, RIP.
	2:13pm Alex In Illinois: I actually would send you that if I found it and remembered, because in your hands, it will get shared on your webcast. Now if anyone here finds a concertina or a button accordion anywhere, it might be dangerous, so you must send it to me immediately.
	2:13pm Mike Sin: Just jumping in to say it was nice to hear someone else play that band "Blue" on the radio. I didn't discover them until the 21st century through a Jimmy McCulloch connection. Did those RSO LPs ever see the light of day on CD? Anyway, very much enjoying the show.
	2:13pm listener james from westwood: Just saw that, Jeff. Chris Jones of Esquire appears to have an appreciation up online.
	🛒 2:13pm Brian in UK: @Jeff that takes me back a ways.
	2:14pm Parq: Aw, Merle.
	2:14pm Dean: Wow, Michael Herr. RIP, indeed.
	2:15pm chromaphone: Found a great recent performance of youtube from this group
	🛒 2:16pm Brian in UK: Uncle, heading for the kitchen and beer or something stronger to assuage my sorrows. Saints preserve us from small minds.
	2:16pm chromaphone: on youtube not of
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: See you Brian! Lane, Greg Leisz is on this record.
	2:19pm Uncle Michael: Mike, I do think the Blue stuff got re-released.
	2:19pm Lane Gray: Cool. Greg is quite the picker
	2:23pm Webhamster Henry: Maybe we can have Sammy Appreciation day?
	2:23pm 67tele: this S D Jr cut is kind of the musical equiv of chewing up the scenery - much like his other shtuff
	2:24pm geezerette: Sammy Davis was a genius.
	2:24pm βrian: Moths to the flame. Reminds me of Joe Frank.
	2:24pm 67tele: oops i mean his other shinki
	2:25pm geezerette: Everybody sing!
	2:28pm 67tele: Beaunanza
	2:28pm geezerette: Was he from Quebec?
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: EVERYBODY SING!
	2:28pm Doug Schulkind: This is a hall-of-fame freeform set, Mr Uncle.
	🛒 2:29pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Everyone. Babs has nothing on Fanny! Keep on keepin on, Uncle Marathon!
	2:29pm geezerette: I'll say!
	2:29pm Webhamster Henry: Not the only french singing American movie star: wfmu.org...
	2:30pm Doug Schulkind: Bookened by Fred Flintstone and Delia Derbyshire. Somewhere, a freeform angel just received her wings.
	2:30pm hyde: i'm not a dr who nerd, but i am a delia derbyshire nerd
	2:31pm geezerette: :D !!!
	2:31pm Ken From Hyde Park: Everybody do the twister twist!
	2:31pm βrian: What, you didn't read Le Petit Prince, UM?
	2:34pm Doug Schulkind: The estate-sale auction from my parents' house has started online. You, too, can relive my childhood, by scrolling through all the crapola: www.ebth.com...
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Brian, "as read by Lorne Greene."
	2:39pm Jeff Golick: Wow, @Doug. That must be weird to see. It's weird for me to see. Great chairs, btw!
	2:40pm Goyim in the AM: There are some beautiful things there, Doug. I will send the link to some Maryland and DC friends.
	2:41pm Parq: Gotta cut, UM. Some chores that can't wait await. Good week, champ.
	2:42pm johnk77: uk devolution good day to listen to cool and crazy music from a black irishman and a selecter on fyah
	2:42pm Uncle Michael: You can do anything you want to do, Parq!
	2:43pm johnk77: phil lynott loved clover rip
	🛒 2:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for the 1/4 day , Unc. Gotta scoot, too
	2:44pm ndbob: great version of this song
	2:45pm Mike East: Thanks for the Thin Lizzy...really needed that. Hey Johnk77!!
	2:45pm hyde: i have to work til 4. are you sure you don't want to do a 7 hour show?
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. See you early-departers later!
	2:46pm johnk77: @mikeeast keepin it real workin for a livin
	2:47pm Doug Schulkind: It is bizarre to see the everyday objects from my childhood home on such display. There are also some some incredibly valuable items in there sitting with bids of $1. Extremely harrowing. Thank God I will be moving out of Internet range tomorrow when I get to Maine (unless our cabin has Wifi), so I won't obsess over this. @Goyim in the AM Thanks, mate! My mother was an artist (many of her pieces are included in the auction) and she and father amassed a significant collection.
	2:48pm hyde: @Doug there's some great objects in there. good luck!
	2:49pm V Priceless: Thanks Uncle M! Swell show (I missed a bit...will catch the archive). Cheers!
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: Don't stop now, @UM. You're just getting going.
	2:51pm Listener Scott: Home stretch! Thanks UM.
	2:52pm listener james from westwood: Holy shit, I had not yet heard Portishead's cover of this. Fucking prescient.
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I may make it. A 6% Glen Jones!
	2:53pm Jeff Golick: High Rise = the JG Ballard book-turned-movie?
	2:54pm Jeff Golick: (If so, that book has one of the more memorable first lines of recent times.)
	2:54pm geezerette: Quoting listener james from westwood: "THIS SHOW IS A FUCKING BLAST!" Thanks UM!
	2:56pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. I'll spend the week in rehab and meet you all back here next Friday.
	2:57pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: Outstanding, @UM. Thank you!
	2:57pm V Priceless: dang! Stranglers too! Woo! U rock, Unc!
	2:58pm hyde: thanks UM, huge show!
	2:58pm still b/p: Hear hear! This show has been hours of entertainment! Also, we've spoken of auctions and the Maine coast and proofreading. This involves all three: a video for auction of very a high end property on the island Isleboro boasts of the region's early sun and says, “…that's because these islands are 300 miles farther east than any other point in the United States." That's crazy wrong, unless I'm confused, it's bafflingly waaaaaay off. Even Doug will be farther east in Stonington; much of the NE United States is within 300 miles. I can't figure what angle of geography, distance or common sense got kerflugled. Among all the people involved, no one said, "Wait a minute..." A little proofing, maybe, when you're pitching a many-million dollar product...?
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Four losses in a row, and you're headed to rehab? It's a long season, Uncle Michael! Not six hours long, but pretty long. You are my hero, Uncle M. I should take more vacations, just to hear you make such outsize brilliant radio.
	3:02pm listener james from westwood: Thanks most kindly for the mega-show, UM! These are always fun!
	3:04pm Goyim in the AM: Very good stuff, UM!
	3:06pm Uncle Michael: Thank you mi migas!
	10:30pm hoss cartwright: This archive is just 5:46:28 long when it BREXITS 90 seconds into Vanity Fare . . . . which still tours - not with anyone on the hits, but their drummer who retired last year went back to 1972.
