	12:10pm listener james from westwood: Camera Obscura! Finally saw my first episode of "Black Mirror," the "Fifteen Million Merits" one, and have had both ABBA's "I Have a Dream" and, more hauntingly, "Anyone Who Knows What Love Is," stuck in my head since.

	12:17pm JP from KC: I'm an Anglophile, So I prefer to do the "mess about."
	12:17pm Stanley: @annie, james - Charlie Brooker is one of the few voices of sanity over here. I like Rich Hall's take on American life.
	12:17pm Lane Gray: Was that a glass harmonica on Super Trouper?
	12:17pm frenchee: I hear Nilsson Scmilsson calling, I'm here! Hello UM and co.
	12:18pm Uncle Michael: Lane! I couldn't say.
	12:18pm Jeff Golick: Holy smokes, Ahmet Ertegun. Here's a very long and wonderful profile of Ertegun from the NYer, 1978: www.newyorker.com...

	12:19pm annie: this smells of nichols and may..
	12:20pm Lane Gray: JP, Miles Jupp said that, because he's British, he calls the popular website "youvalve"
	12:20pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hi Frenchee! waves back
	12:21pm Dominick: Omlette
	12:23pm Doug Schulkind: Omlette Coleman. (Somebody had to say it.)
	12:23pm Marie: Love this bed music! Makes me think of all sorts of tv shows from the 70s.
	12:23pm Lane Gray: Stanley, I prefer Jeremy Hardy or Mark Steel to Charlie. Speaking of Jeremy, NEWS QUIZ RETURNS TODAY! As soon as HDTR is over, I'm off to the iPlayer
	🛒 12:24pm Brian in UK: Hello Uncle. Hello MacStanley. Love the name Oblio.
	12:24pm johnk77: ahmet was very cool in person. funny, with great stories. he truly enjoyed hanging w/bands+crews. great show already today selecter @um

	12:26pm melinda: @marie I agree!
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: BiUK! John!
	12:28pm Stanley: @Lane, Brian - good guys, too. But Charlie has the sardonic edge, I like. Lane - good to see you get iPlayer
	12:28pm Lane Gray: Michael, my brother just sent me the new box thingie from Stephen Merritt. Cool stuff on it
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: ooh! Nice, Lane.
	12:29pm Roberto: 'Sup Unc!
	12:29pm doctorjazz: Allman Fudge!
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	12:30pm Marie: Hi Melinda, yeah, the score to car chases, driving, all sorts of things, usually set in Southern California. It's like I have a whole little world in my mind of Southern California as seen through movies and TV
	12:31pm melinda: me too
	12:36pm glenn: i know the blue jays suck right now, but hey, WHAT ABOUT THOSE BLACKHAWKS, HUH?
	12:36pm Jeff Golick: Thanks for playing this.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Blackhawks showed up with NOTHING.
	12:36pm Lane Gray: Stanley, I can get the radio iPlayer. I need to activate my VPN to watch BBC TV. At home, the Internet thinks I'm in Northamptonshire (the new series of Robot Wars was INSANE).
	12:37pm glenn: no kidding. 3 goals in 4 games. ouch.
	12:37pm glenn: did an allman die?
	12:37pm Parq: Okay, this is the one Allmans number I still really dig, tho I prefer the Flimore version.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: There's not much ABB I don't love...a lot.
	12:38pm Stanley: Lane, hehe, Northamptonshire.
	12:39pm glenn: duane and dickie can bring it, that's for sure.
	12:39pm Stanley: I hear the call. I have to obey. Later, guys. (adopts wild stare, puts earphones in, makes for the door)
	12:40pm Marie: I think this is such a good driving song.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Marie...the next one would be the BEST driving song...if not for the threat of running right off the road.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: See ya Stanley!
	12:42pm Marie: Hm! :>)
	12:42pm Lane Gray: I chose it because of the brilliant Katherine Jakeways radio serial. And because just to make sure I can fool Auntie Beeb, I edited the physical location Windows reports. Unfortunately Waldenbroke does not actually exist.
	12:42pm Parq: This would make such a great jazz piece. Alto sax, piano and tenor sax. Who's with me?
	12:43pm Marie: I wonder if there are any records of people driving off the road because of the music they are listening to.
	12:43pm glenn: it already IS jazz.
	12:44pm Lane Gray: Parq, include a phase-shifted pedal steel and I'm in.
	12:44pm hyde: nice. i've been listening to the Duane Allman Anthology a lot lately
	12:44pm burke: @Parq: I don't have a horn but 'll bring my kazoo.
	12:44pm mauri: it's summer soon wheee
	12:45pm Doug Schulkind: Jessice was used during the "road trip" footage in the film Shoeless Joe.
	12:45pm listener james from westwood: @Marie, funny you mention driving, "Jessica" on now is one of my fave driving songs!
	12:45pm Parq: Glenn, yeah, but you know what I mean. Miles style. Blakey style.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: "Jessica" gives me chills and makes me mist up the moment it starts. It cuts to the heart of me, joyously, and I've stopped wondering why.
	12:46pm Marie: @UM--I hear ya on this! I am pretty sure I have been wheeling around to this, high as a kite (on weed), but as a passenger
	12:46pm glenn: man, this makes me nostalgic for 1977, even though i know this is from '73.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: When the piano comes in...I cry...every time. Who knows why.
	12:46pm geezerette: "All Man Brothers" seems redundant,...or hopeful... Howdy UM & party people!!!
	12:46pm doctorjazz: Walking bass, soulful sax, yeah, I can hear it. In my next life...
	12:47pm Marie: I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Take it to the bridge...
	12:48pm geezerette: It's happy music!
	12:48pm Doug Schulkind: No, I meant the film Field of Dreams.
	12:48pm Parq: UM, this was their first album after... you know. I'd be surprised if that didn't have anything to do with it.
	12:49pm glenn: hinky dinky time is one of my two favourite things from kansas. this is the other. restoringross.com...
	12:49pm doctorjazz: Musicians all have their pet phrases, but I can spot Dicky Betts a mile away.
	12:49pm Marie: Jessica must have been really loved.
	12:51pm geezerette: Marie, thinking that too. Lucky girl. :)
	12:51pm hyde: Jessica was Dickey Betts' daughter
	12:51pm glenn: dickie can play an arpeggio like nobody's business.
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Sure is car driving music. Great thing about a motorcycle you do not need anything to side track you, there are too many other distractions.
	12:53pm Marie: I love this show!
	🛒 12:54pm Brian in UK: The late Bruce Langhorne lost three fingers. Still could play.
	12:55pm hyde: the Allmans were the first big show I ever went to, at the old Boston Garden. Circa 1979.
	12:56pm annie: it will always and forever be Jessica for me. no other allman tune grabs me like that.
	12:56pm Lewis: The Weekend here in The North, it is going to be a spectacular weekend. I will continuing with my experimentation around cooking with fire...
	12:57pm geezerette: It's summer in L.A., that's good!
	12:57pm doctorjazz: Saw the Allman Bros and the Dead at JFK in the early 70's, OK show, ahem...
	12:58pm Rich in Washington: All our kids and newly minted grandson are coming over this weekend. I am pretty excited about that.
	12:58pm mauri: My balcony door is open and its not cold. Thats good! A country girl is coming with couple of beers to visit till we head to a bar. That's good!
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette!
	12:59pm hyde: my good stuff today involves not working, listening to the Hinky and Dinky, eating this potato and egg sub from Avellino's and getting ready to do some baking. I also scored some bourbon and antico carpano for later afternoon Manhattan(s).
	12:59pm doctorjazz: Hey Geezerette!
	12:59pm geezerette: Uncle Michael!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Rich! Hyde! Man, the positivity makes me feel good.
	🛒 12:59pm Brian in UK: mauri sounds good better get some clothes on my friend. Well shoes.
	1:00pm geezerette: Doc Jazz! Hyde! John Lennon!
	1:00pm Rich in Washington: It's beautifully sunny here for a change.
	🛒 1:00pm Brian in UK: @Rich Brilliant. Nothing like the smell of tiny babies.
	1:01pm Marie: I have to say, I'm thinking of the opposite of good news song by Johnny Cash where everything is going wrong but I can't remember the title or the lyrics :>(
	1:01pm geezerette: Rich! Grand Child!
	1:01pm hyde: geezerette!
	1:02pm geezerette: :D
	1:04pm Lane Gray: We're enjoying our grandbabies. Unfortunately, at a distance. They're adorable; the boy 2½ years, and Ameena a month and a half.
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Busted, Marie?
	1:04pm Marie: I moved to NYC a few months ago and got fired, now I am staying with friends and having a slow time getting freelance work going so my life is not so sunny lately but that is life, sometimes it is challenging (I say to myself)
	1:05pm doctorjazz: Tina does a good Plant (or is it reversed?)
	1:05pm Marie: Yes, "Busted"! I love that song.
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: I need to work on my whittling and whimsical grandpa whistling.
	1:06pm Marie: Actually, I quit, but I was pushed out. Don't worry, I'll stop now. :>)
	1:06pm mauri: brian she's a nudistcyclist so I think socks will offend her and get me in all kinds of hodgepodgetrouble
	1:06pm Lane Gray: I'd rather hear John Prine sing Busted than Johnny Cash. But John R. never really floated my boat.
	1:07pm Parq: Saw the Almans when they were touring Bros and Sis -- in fact, it hadn't been released yet the night I saw them. One of my last Madison Square Garden shows. Dickie played the shit out of it that night.
	1:07pm geezerette: Marie,it changes all the time. Gonna surprise you with happiness one day. Hang on, good things come around. Love "Busted" too.
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I like Ray Charles' version of Busted too.
	1:08pm doctorjazz: Sun Ra, huh? Space time!
	1:09pm geezerette: UM, definitive version!
	1:09pm Lane Gray: But Ray didn't hit many clinkers
	1:09pm Marie: Thanks, Geezerette!
	1:09pm Parq: Mauri's going to drink beer with a naked friend. I think she wins.
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: glenn, I'm going to have to read up on the Cross House...and maybe visit it.
	1:09pm geezerette: :D Cheers, Marie!
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: This is the Hinky Dinky Space Time Continuum.
	1:11pm glenn: how far is emporia from topeka?
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: Less than an hour.
	1:12pm Jeff Golick: I am looking forward to a dog trainer coming by tomorrow afternoon to teach us all how to be good dog parents. I really like the dog so far, but the levels of chaos he has brought with him has really unmoored me.
	1:12pm mauri: parq, everyone drinking with me wins
	1:12pm geezerette: L O V E Sun Ra. Space Time anytime.
	1:12pm Marie: i gotta say, I saw some version of the Sun Ra Arkestra play at a huge pool in Queens or Brooklyn around 1989, during the day, with kids and everyone swimming around.
	1:13pm glenn: it will be well worth it.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: You didn't notice the ones floating above the water?
	1:13pm geezerette: Wow, what an image!
	1:14pm Jeff Golick: The Impulse! '73 re-release of The Magic City has a cover that would not have been out of place as an Allman's inner gatefold: www.discogs.com...
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Marie, until things take a positive turn, I'll continue to provide Friday refuge.
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: Wow, I love that, Jeff.
	1:15pm Marie: Yeah, it was amazing; I think it was some summer holiday and they played while it was still daylight. They were on this very elevated deck. Thank you, UM!
	1:16pm listener james from westwood: Marie, hoping the freelance pace picks up for you; I know that hunger well.
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: I long for the freelance life but have not the ability to stay alive doing it. I honor and elevate all those who can.
	1:19pm Marie: Hi James, thanks. I seem to recall that you are a freelance copyeditor, right? Did you go to a conference in Chicago a few months ago?
	🛒 1:21pm Brian in UK: mauri they were racing sidecars at Imatra recently.
	1:21pm geezerette: "Good Day Sunshine" one of the best all time song titles.
	1:22pm Scraps: can't report much good, unfortunately. but i'm listening lying down, and music is a balm. cheers.
	1:22pm frenchee: 200 is a mighty, mighty number
	1:22pm hyde: who doesn't love a big, round number?
	1:22pm geezerette: Cheers, Scraps.
	1:23pm mauri: Brian I know. It was a good thing to liven up Imatra the ned chavscumtown.
	1:23pm Lane Gray: So next week will be the end of your second hectofortnight?
	1:24pm Marie: @ Geezerette: I agree--And, from a different song, "Sunshine came softly through my window today..." is one of my fave lyrical bits.
	1:24pm Doug Schulkind: 200! Wow. It's been a dream, Michael. Here's to 2,000 more!
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: Scraps! Have more balm... Yes, Lane.
	1:25pm Marie: Scraps!--makes me think of that great NRBQ album!
	1:25pm Jeff Golick: Yes, cheers to 200, @UM!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, guys.
	1:27pm hyde: my back of the envelope calculations indicate the 2000th show should be sometime late in 2055
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: That's one big envelope. You haven't mailed in your taxes yet?
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Lonnie was one of John Peel's favourites.
	1:28pm mauri: damn this lonnie donegans song is good. thanks UM!
	1:28pm Lane Gray: This is the first time I have EVER thought that Lonnie sounds kinda like Del McCoury
	1:28pm Marie: TTTTWWWOOOOO HHHHUUUNNNDDDRRREEEDDD!!!!!!!!!! )I love "yelling" in type)
	1:28pm glenn: somewhere i have a single of the shakin' pyramids w/ lonnie donegan doing rock island line, and maybe wabash cannonball on the flip side. it's pretty fab.
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: This harmony...
	🛒 1:30pm Brian in UK: Well now that this smoking at work malarkey has stopped, the planning departments are stuffed. No more back of a cigarette packet calculations anymore.
	1:30pm Doug Schulkind: October 23, 2016: D:O Radio's 200th broadcast: wfmu.org...
	1:30pm hyde: good ol' Ralph Stanley
	1:32pm glenn: fred eaglesmith has a song about carter stanley.
	🛒 1:33pm Brian in UK: Still miss John Peel. He turned me onto SO much that I would never have heard otherwise. @glenn if you can get past the jokes.
	1:33pm listener jeff: Hi UM: That Django cut got me to wondering if you have ever played any Dan Hicks on the show. I cannot recall....
	1:34pm Jeff Golick: (@Doug: thanks for remembering.)
	1:35pm glenn: hey c'mon. fred tells a mean joke. and then another. and another. and another. and another.
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: I have not, Jeff...but oddly...I have some queued for the anniversary show.
	1:36pm glenn: i've seen him many times. he always puts on a good show.
	1:36pm Marie: Rock n roll!
	1:41pm doctorjazz: Happy 200 UM!
	1:41pm glenn: yeah, happy 200.
	1:42pm doctorjazz: Love "Last Night"...
	🛒 1:43pm Brian in UK: glenn no debate you stated it admirably.
	1:46pm glenn: mmmmmm. morels are the best thing ever.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Doc and glenn.
	1:49pm glenn: morels are the nrbq of fungi.
	1:50pm burke: @glenn That is to say, versatile?
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I'm too old for the Allman Brothers of fungi.
	1:55pm geezerette: Beaky, hahaha...
	1:56pm glenn: versatile, tasty.
	1:56pm ndbob: I need to go - excellent show UM!
	1:57pm Jeff Golick: Well, "Zabadak" is a new one on me. Amazing.
	1:58pm glenn: this makes united look even more useless. www.thestar.com...
	1:59pm Rich in Washington: Me too! What a wonderfully odd song!
	2:01pm listener james from westwood: @Marie: Sorry for the delay—you are correct, I am a freelance copy editor (and proofreader). I did attend a March copy editors' conference; it was in St. Pete, but next year's is in Chicago.
	2:03pm ronzoni: weren't there competing versions of chirpy chirpy cheep cheep?
	2:05pm Jeff Golick: @glenn: I am very relieved that the story has them all reuniting at the end.
	2:05pm ronzoni: you've just answered my question. thanks.
	2:09pm Rich in Washington: God. I'm on this early 70s hard rock kick lately. Recently saw a pretty good Beeb doc on early roots of heavy metal.
	2:10pm Jeff Golick: "Get your body to a copse"? Of trees?
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: Glad to help, Ron.
	2:10pm ronzoni: you're the helpful sort.
	2:11pm hyde: @Rich i noticed that early roots of heavy metal doc the other day when i was watching the BBC one on Fairport Convention. I gotta check that out
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: It's a good thing for Sturgill that we're over crowning 'New Dylans".
	2:15pm doctorjazz: I'd love to see the Fairport Convention one, BBC doesn't get Joisey.
	2:16pm doctorjazz: Sturgill has much better pipes than Dylan (and I'm a fan of Dylan's singing).
	2:19pm ronzoni: i played some orbison for my wife a few days ago and she commented that a lot of his stuff had a marching beat to it. this one does for sure.
	2:20pm ronzoni: also "the crowd".
	2:20pm hyde: @doctorjazz you can find the Fairport doc on the Youtubes...
	2:20pm glenn: roy "the golden orb" ison.
	2:22pm melinda: Had to run an errand and missed a large chunk. I liked that Break in the Frost.
	2:23pm geezerette: War can really wreck a party.
	2:24pm geezerette: Hi Melinda. :)
	2:24pm glenn: ya never know. trump might shoot 10 over par at mar a lago this weekend and decide to nuke pyongyang in revenge.
	2:25pm geezerette: shudder.
	2:27pm glenn: then again, he might bomb canada because of our unfair dairy practises. sad.
	2:27pm burke: Ten over par...in his wildest dreams he would shoot ten over par!
	2:29pm geezerette: Don't ya think he oughta go there & fight it by himself? After all, only he alone can do it.
	2:29pm melinda: hi geeze
	2:29pm hyde: off topic: Frederick Weisman's 80's documentary on the Dallas Neiman Marcus (The Store) is available to stream for free here: m2m.tv...
	2:30pm Lewis: very cool Caravan...
	2:30pm geezerette: UM, best version!
	2:30pm glenn: what lewis said.
	2:30pm geezerette: yay hyde!
	2:31pm Lane Gray: Awwwww, something off the wedding CD. You just made me smile
	2:32pm Marie: Hey James, no problemo. St. Pete's sounds nice to me. March can still be very cold in Chicago. Sounds like you are a general or academic copyeditor. I ended up going into medical advertising (many minuses and a couple of big plusses)
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Thanks @Hyde, I'll check it out. Have the Albert Ayler doc to watch on YouTube, I'll get to the Fairport after that (wife and daughter out tonight, good time to watch that kind of stuff). Always liked the Mills Brothers, UM, but you've taken my appreciation to the next level. And, Blossom, ah...
	2:35pm geezerette: "Man with a Movie Camera". www.youtube.com...
	2:36pm hyde: @geezerette true classic
	2:37pm listener james from westwood: @Marie, that's correct; a goodly chunk of academic work crosses my desk! I occasionally see ads for that sort of medical/pharma work through the Editorial Freelancers Association.
	2:38pm geezerette: hyde, I really love that film, & excited to watch "Department Store".
	2:40pm Marie: Yodeling tickles my brain
	2:40pm geezerette: Sounds like they're slapping their lieder hosen.
	2:41pm 67tele: reminds me of Harold & Maude - makes me want to go float in a pool:)
	2:42pm melinda: While I was driving around I wished I'd had some Cat Stevens to listen to in the car. It's a green and drizzly Harold & Maude sort of day here.
	2:42pm Marie: @ James, mm hm :>)
	2:42pm Parq: Ah. I knew I had heard a cover of this Stevens song-- Amanda Palmer has cut it, too.
	2:43pm Lane Gray: This was used a few years ago for the theme of a radio comedy show, almost a radio Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman
	2:44pm hyde: @geezerette I've seen a lot of Weisman, but not this one. Fun fact: when I was a letter carrier, I would sometimes deliver Frederick Weisman's mail.
	2:45pm melinda: It was also on a collection called Footsteps in the Dark.
	2:46pm Lane Gray: As Michael talks over the steel player.... One of the Jag hearses lived in the SF Bay area in 1990 I saw it parked there
	2:47pm geezerette: Hyde, ever meet him?
	2:48pm 67tele: <<the little black geetar w white pickguard in my pitcher is a Harmony Roy Smeck...
	2:50pm hyde: @geezerette. No such luck! I did get to personally hand deliver mail to Yoyo Ma and Stephen Jay Gould over the years, but not Frederick Weisman.
	2:52pm burke: No, this won't be the last time! There's always next time.
	2:52pm glenn: i wonder if yoyo and yoko have ever met.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: That's right, Burke!
	2:54pm glenn: actually, wouldn't yoko be the bastard love child of yoyo and koko taylor?
	2:54pm doctorjazz: This is a great version, The Staples do a really great one as well.
	2:54pm geezerette: Wow! I watched Weisman interviewed by Tavis Smiley not long ago; very funny and so damn quick. A real, old school New Yorker.
	2:56pm geezerette: UM, thanks for the best kid's show for grownups since Pee Wee's Playhouse.
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: (I see you, @glenn.)
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette, may I leverage that testimonial? Wow.
	2:58pm hyde: i'm going back to my little grass shack. thanks UM!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from April 21, 2017

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:36pm glenn: i know the blue jays suck right now, but hey, WHAT ABOUT THOSE BLACKHAWKS, HUH?

	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Blackhawks showed up with NOTHING.
	12:36pm Lane Gray: Stanley, I can get the radio iPlayer. I need to activate my VPN to watch BBC TV. At home, the Internet thinks I'm in Northamptonshire (the new series of Robot Wars was INSANE).
	12:37pm glenn: no kidding. 3 goals in 4 games. ouch.
	12:37pm glenn: did an allman die?
	12:37pm Parq: Okay, this is the one Allmans number I still really dig, tho I prefer the Flimore version.

	12:38pm Stanley: Lane, hehe, Northamptonshire.
	12:39pm glenn: duane and dickie can bring it, that's for sure.

	12:40pm Marie: I think this is such a good driving song.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Marie...the next one would be the BEST driving song...if not for the threat of running right off the road.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: See ya Stanley!
	12:42pm Marie: Hm! :>)
	12:42pm Lane Gray: I chose it because of the brilliant Katherine Jakeways radio serial. And because just to make sure I can fool Auntie Beeb, I edited the physical location Windows reports. Unfortunately Waldenbroke does not actually exist.
	12:42pm Parq: This would make such a great jazz piece. Alto sax, piano and tenor sax. Who's with me?
	12:43pm Marie: I wonder if there are any records of people driving off the road because of the music they are listening to.
	12:43pm glenn: it already IS jazz.
	12:44pm Lane Gray: Parq, include a phase-shifted pedal steel and I'm in.
	12:44pm hyde: nice. i've been listening to the Duane Allman Anthology a lot lately
	12:44pm burke: @Parq: I don't have a horn but 'll bring my kazoo.

	12:45pm Doug Schulkind: Jessice was used during the "road trip" footage in the film Shoeless Joe.
	12:45pm listener james from westwood: @Marie, funny you mention driving, "Jessica" on now is one of my fave driving songs!
	12:45pm Parq: Glenn, yeah, but you know what I mean. Miles style. Blakey style.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: "Jessica" gives me chills and makes me mist up the moment it starts. It cuts to the heart of me, joyously, and I've stopped wondering why.
	12:46pm Marie: @UM--I hear ya on this! I am pretty sure I have been wheeling around to this, high as a kite (on weed), but as a passenger
	12:46pm glenn: man, this makes me nostalgic for 1977, even though i know this is from '73.
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: When the piano comes in...I cry...every time. Who knows why.
	12:46pm geezerette: "All Man Brothers" seems redundant,...or hopeful... Howdy UM & party people!!!
	12:46pm doctorjazz: Walking bass, soulful sax, yeah, I can hear it. In my next life...
	12:47pm Marie: I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Take it to the bridge...
	12:48pm geezerette: It's happy music!
	12:48pm Doug Schulkind: No, I meant the film Field of Dreams.
	12:48pm Parq: UM, this was their first album after... you know. I'd be surprised if that didn't have anything to do with it.
	12:49pm glenn: hinky dinky time is one of my two favourite things from kansas. this is the other. restoringross.com...
	12:49pm doctorjazz: Musicians all have their pet phrases, but I can spot Dicky Betts a mile away.
	12:49pm Marie: Jessica must have been really loved.
	12:51pm geezerette: Marie, thinking that too. Lucky girl. :)
	12:51pm hyde: Jessica was Dickey Betts' daughter
	12:51pm glenn: dickie can play an arpeggio like nobody's business.
	🛒 12:53pm Brian in UK: Sure is car driving music. Great thing about a motorcycle you do not need anything to side track you, there are too many other distractions.
	12:53pm Marie: I love this show!
	🛒 12:54pm Brian in UK: The late Bruce Langhorne lost three fingers. Still could play.
	12:55pm hyde: the Allmans were the first big show I ever went to, at the old Boston Garden. Circa 1979.
	12:56pm annie: it will always and forever be Jessica for me. no other allman tune grabs me like that.
	12:56pm Lewis: The Weekend here in The North, it is going to be a spectacular weekend. I will continuing with my experimentation around cooking with fire...

	12:58pm Rich in Washington: All our kids and newly minted grandson are coming over this weekend. I am pretty excited about that.
	12:58pm mauri: My balcony door is open and its not cold. Thats good! A country girl is coming with couple of beers to visit till we head to a bar. That's good!
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette!
	12:59pm hyde: my good stuff today involves not working, listening to the Hinky and Dinky, eating this potato and egg sub from Avellino's and getting ready to do some baking. I also scored some bourbon and antico carpano for later afternoon Manhattan(s).
	12:59pm doctorjazz: Hey Geezerette!
	12:59pm geezerette: Uncle Michael!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Rich! Hyde! Man, the positivity makes me feel good.

	1:00pm geezerette: Doc Jazz! Hyde! John Lennon!
	1:00pm Rich in Washington: It's beautifully sunny here for a change.
	🛒 1:00pm Brian in UK: @Rich Brilliant. Nothing like the smell of tiny babies.
	1:01pm Marie: I have to say, I'm thinking of the opposite of good news song by Johnny Cash where everything is going wrong but I can't remember the title or the lyrics :>(
	1:01pm geezerette: Rich! Grand Child!
	1:01pm hyde: geezerette!
	1:02pm geezerette: :D
	1:04pm Lane Gray: We're enjoying our grandbabies. Unfortunately, at a distance. They're adorable; the boy 2½ years, and Ameena a month and a half.
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: Busted, Marie?
	1:04pm Marie: I moved to NYC a few months ago and got fired, now I am staying with friends and having a slow time getting freelance work going so my life is not so sunny lately but that is life, sometimes it is challenging (I say to myself)
	1:05pm doctorjazz: Tina does a good Plant (or is it reversed?)
	1:05pm Marie: Yes, "Busted"! I love that song.
	1:06pm Rich in Washington: I need to work on my whittling and whimsical grandpa whistling.
	1:06pm Marie: Actually, I quit, but I was pushed out. Don't worry, I'll stop now. :>)
	1:06pm mauri: brian she's a nudistcyclist so I think socks will offend her and get me in all kinds of hodgepodgetrouble
	1:06pm Lane Gray: I'd rather hear John Prine sing Busted than Johnny Cash. But John R. never really floated my boat.
	1:07pm Parq: Saw the Almans when they were touring Bros and Sis -- in fact, it hadn't been released yet the night I saw them. One of my last Madison Square Garden shows. Dickie played the shit out of it that night.
	1:07pm geezerette: Marie,it changes all the time. Gonna surprise you with happiness one day. Hang on, good things come around. Love "Busted" too.
	1:08pm Uncle Michael: I like Ray Charles' version of Busted too.
	1:08pm doctorjazz: Sun Ra, huh? Space time!
	1:09pm geezerette: UM, definitive version!
	1:09pm Lane Gray: But Ray didn't hit many clinkers
	1:09pm Marie: Thanks, Geezerette!
	1:09pm Parq: Mauri's going to drink beer with a naked friend. I think she wins.
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: glenn, I'm going to have to read up on the Cross House...and maybe visit it.
	1:09pm geezerette: :D Cheers, Marie!
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: This is the Hinky Dinky Space Time Continuum.
	1:11pm glenn: how far is emporia from topeka?
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: Less than an hour.
	1:12pm Jeff Golick: I am looking forward to a dog trainer coming by tomorrow afternoon to teach us all how to be good dog parents. I really like the dog so far, but the levels of chaos he has brought with him has really unmoored me.
	1:12pm mauri: parq, everyone drinking with me wins
	1:12pm geezerette: L O V E Sun Ra. Space Time anytime.
	1:12pm Marie: i gotta say, I saw some version of the Sun Ra Arkestra play at a huge pool in Queens or Brooklyn around 1989, during the day, with kids and everyone swimming around.
	1:13pm glenn: it will be well worth it.
	1:13pm Uncle Michael: You didn't notice the ones floating above the water?
	1:13pm geezerette: Wow, what an image!
	1:14pm Jeff Golick: The Impulse! '73 re-release of The Magic City has a cover that would not have been out of place as an Allman's inner gatefold: www.discogs.com...
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Marie, until things take a positive turn, I'll continue to provide Friday refuge.
	1:15pm Uncle Michael: Wow, I love that, Jeff.
	1:15pm Marie: Yeah, it was amazing; I think it was some summer holiday and they played while it was still daylight. They were on this very elevated deck. Thank you, UM!
	1:16pm listener james from westwood: Marie, hoping the freelance pace picks up for you; I know that hunger well.
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: I long for the freelance life but have not the ability to stay alive doing it. I honor and elevate all those who can.
	1:19pm Marie: Hi James, thanks. I seem to recall that you are a freelance copyeditor, right? Did you go to a conference in Chicago a few months ago?
	🛒 1:21pm Brian in UK: mauri they were racing sidecars at Imatra recently.
	1:21pm geezerette: "Good Day Sunshine" one of the best all time song titles.
	1:22pm Scraps: can't report much good, unfortunately. but i'm listening lying down, and music is a balm. cheers.
	1:22pm frenchee: 200 is a mighty, mighty number
	1:22pm hyde: who doesn't love a big, round number?
	1:22pm geezerette: Cheers, Scraps.

	1:23pm Lane Gray: So next week will be the end of your second hectofortnight?

	1:24pm Doug Schulkind: 200! Wow. It's been a dream, Michael. Here's to 2,000 more!
	1:24pm Uncle Michael: Scraps! Have more balm... Yes, Lane.

	1:25pm Jeff Golick: Yes, cheers to 200, @UM!
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, guys.
	1:27pm hyde: my back of the envelope calculations indicate the 2000th show should be sometime late in 2055
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: That's one big envelope. You haven't mailed in your taxes yet?
	🛒 1:27pm Brian in UK: Lonnie was one of John Peel's favourites.
	1:28pm mauri: damn this lonnie donegans song is good. thanks UM!
	1:28pm Lane Gray: This is the first time I have EVER thought that Lonnie sounds kinda like Del McCoury
	1:28pm Marie: TTTTWWWOOOOO HHHHUUUNNNDDDRRREEEDDD!!!!!!!!!! )I love "yelling" in type)
	1:28pm glenn: somewhere i have a single of the shakin' pyramids w/ lonnie donegan doing rock island line, and maybe wabash cannonball on the flip side. it's pretty fab.
	1:30pm Jeff Golick: This harmony...
	🛒 1:30pm Brian in UK: Well now that this smoking at work malarkey has stopped, the planning departments are stuffed. No more back of a cigarette packet calculations anymore.
	1:30pm Doug Schulkind: October 23, 2016: D:O Radio's 200th broadcast: wfmu.org...
	1:30pm hyde: good ol' Ralph Stanley
	1:32pm glenn: fred eaglesmith has a song about carter stanley.
	🛒 1:33pm Brian in UK: Still miss John Peel. He turned me onto SO much that I would never have heard otherwise. @glenn if you can get past the jokes.
	1:33pm listener jeff: Hi UM: That Django cut got me to wondering if you have ever played any Dan Hicks on the show. I cannot recall....
	1:34pm Jeff Golick: (@Doug: thanks for remembering.)
	1:35pm glenn: hey c'mon. fred tells a mean joke. and then another. and another. and another. and another.
	1:35pm Uncle Michael: I have not, Jeff...but oddly...I have some queued for the anniversary show.

	🛒 1:43pm Brian in UK: glenn no debate you stated it admirably.
	1:46pm glenn: mmmmmm. morels are the best thing ever.
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Doc and glenn.
	1:49pm glenn: morels are the nrbq of fungi.
	1:50pm burke: @glenn That is to say, versatile?
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I'm too old for the Allman Brothers of fungi.
	1:55pm geezerette: Beaky, hahaha...
	1:56pm glenn: versatile, tasty.
	1:56pm ndbob: I need to go - excellent show UM!
	1:57pm Jeff Golick: Well, "Zabadak" is a new one on me. Amazing.
	1:58pm glenn: this makes united look even more useless. www.thestar.com...
	1:59pm Rich in Washington: Me too! What a wonderfully odd song!
	2:01pm listener james from westwood: @Marie: Sorry for the delay—you are correct, I am a freelance copy editor (and proofreader). I did attend a March copy editors' conference; it was in St. Pete, but next year's is in Chicago.
	2:03pm ronzoni: weren't there competing versions of chirpy chirpy cheep cheep?
	2:05pm Jeff Golick: @glenn: I am very relieved that the story has them all reuniting at the end.
	2:05pm ronzoni: you've just answered my question. thanks.
	2:09pm Rich in Washington: God. I'm on this early 70s hard rock kick lately. Recently saw a pretty good Beeb doc on early roots of heavy metal.
	2:10pm Jeff Golick: "Get your body to a copse"? Of trees?
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: Glad to help, Ron.
	2:10pm ronzoni: you're the helpful sort.
	2:11pm hyde: @Rich i noticed that early roots of heavy metal doc the other day when i was watching the BBC one on Fairport Convention. I gotta check that out
	2:14pm Uncle Michael: It's a good thing for Sturgill that we're over crowning 'New Dylans".
	2:15pm doctorjazz: I'd love to see the Fairport Convention one, BBC doesn't get Joisey.
	2:16pm doctorjazz: Sturgill has much better pipes than Dylan (and I'm a fan of Dylan's singing).
	2:19pm ronzoni: i played some orbison for my wife a few days ago and she commented that a lot of his stuff had a marching beat to it. this one does for sure.
	2:20pm ronzoni: also "the crowd".
	2:20pm hyde: @doctorjazz you can find the Fairport doc on the Youtubes...
	2:20pm glenn: roy "the golden orb" ison.
	2:22pm melinda: Had to run an errand and missed a large chunk. I liked that Break in the Frost.
	2:23pm geezerette: War can really wreck a party.
	2:24pm geezerette: Hi Melinda. :)
	2:24pm glenn: ya never know. trump might shoot 10 over par at mar a lago this weekend and decide to nuke pyongyang in revenge.
	2:25pm geezerette: shudder.
	2:27pm glenn: then again, he might bomb canada because of our unfair dairy practises. sad.
	2:27pm burke: Ten over par...in his wildest dreams he would shoot ten over par!
	2:29pm geezerette: Don't ya think he oughta go there & fight it by himself? After all, only he alone can do it.
	2:29pm melinda: hi geeze
	2:29pm hyde: off topic: Frederick Weisman's 80's documentary on the Dallas Neiman Marcus (The Store) is available to stream for free here: m2m.tv...
	2:30pm Lewis: very cool Caravan...
	2:30pm geezerette: UM, best version!
	2:30pm glenn: what lewis said.
	2:30pm geezerette: yay hyde!
	2:31pm Lane Gray: Awwwww, something off the wedding CD. You just made me smile
	2:32pm Marie: Hey James, no problemo. St. Pete's sounds nice to me. March can still be very cold in Chicago. Sounds like you are a general or academic copyeditor. I ended up going into medical advertising (many minuses and a couple of big plusses)
	2:33pm doctorjazz: Thanks @Hyde, I'll check it out. Have the Albert Ayler doc to watch on YouTube, I'll get to the Fairport after that (wife and daughter out tonight, good time to watch that kind of stuff). Always liked the Mills Brothers, UM, but you've taken my appreciation to the next level. And, Blossom, ah...
	2:35pm geezerette: "Man with a Movie Camera". www.youtube.com...
	2:36pm hyde: @geezerette true classic
	2:37pm listener james from westwood: @Marie, that's correct; a goodly chunk of academic work crosses my desk! I occasionally see ads for that sort of medical/pharma work through the Editorial Freelancers Association.
	2:38pm geezerette: hyde, I really love that film, & excited to watch "Department Store".
	2:40pm Marie: Yodeling tickles my brain
	2:40pm geezerette: Sounds like they're slapping their lieder hosen.
	2:41pm 67tele: reminds me of Harold & Maude - makes me want to go float in a pool:)
	2:42pm melinda: While I was driving around I wished I'd had some Cat Stevens to listen to in the car. It's a green and drizzly Harold & Maude sort of day here.
	2:42pm Marie: @ James, mm hm :>)
	2:42pm Parq: Ah. I knew I had heard a cover of this Stevens song-- Amanda Palmer has cut it, too.
	2:43pm Lane Gray: This was used a few years ago for the theme of a radio comedy show, almost a radio Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman
	2:44pm hyde: @geezerette I've seen a lot of Weisman, but not this one. Fun fact: when I was a letter carrier, I would sometimes deliver Frederick Weisman's mail.
	2:45pm melinda: It was also on a collection called Footsteps in the Dark.
	2:46pm Lane Gray: As Michael talks over the steel player.... One of the Jag hearses lived in the SF Bay area in 1990 I saw it parked there
	2:47pm geezerette: Hyde, ever meet him?
	2:48pm 67tele: <<the little black geetar w white pickguard in my pitcher is a Harmony Roy Smeck...
	2:50pm hyde: @geezerette. No such luck! I did get to personally hand deliver mail to Yoyo Ma and Stephen Jay Gould over the years, but not Frederick Weisman.
	2:52pm burke: No, this won't be the last time! There's always next time.
	2:52pm glenn: i wonder if yoyo and yoko have ever met.
	2:52pm Uncle Michael: That's right, Burke!
	2:54pm glenn: actually, wouldn't yoko be the bastard love child of yoyo and koko taylor?
	2:54pm doctorjazz: This is a great version, The Staples do a really great one as well.
	2:54pm geezerette: Wow! I watched Weisman interviewed by Tavis Smiley not long ago; very funny and so damn quick. A real, old school New Yorker.
	2:56pm geezerette: UM, thanks for the best kid's show for grownups since Pee Wee's Playhouse.
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: (I see you, @glenn.)
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Geezerette, may I leverage that testimonial? Wow.
	2:58pm hyde: i'm going back to my little grass shack. thanks UM!
	2:59pm geezerette: you betcha! :D
	2:59pm glenn: when's the next request show?
	2:59pm Uncle Michael: January. Am I doing that badly?
	2:59pm ronzoni: thanks, mike!
	3:00pm glenn: jeeeez. ask an innocent question...
	3:00pm Roberto: Bai Unc!
	3:00pm Lane Gray: That's a great Hank Snow song, Hyde (I've got Marty Robbins singing Aloha Œ with Jerry Byrd on steel on vinyl
	3:01pm listener james from westwood: Many many thanks, UM, and congrats on reaching 200!
	3:01pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM. Lovely show. 199 was a winner.
	3:02pm melinda: Ta!
	3:02pm Stevel: I was here. Now you're leaving. Ciao!
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks all...see you in a week!
