	12:01pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	12:01pm doctorjazz: Checking in, hi all!
	12:02pm ndbob: hi doctor jazz!
	12:02pm Jeff Golick: Ready to break out!
	12:02pm ndbob: and jeff
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: Heeeeee's EVERY doggone thing!
	12:03pm Dean: Recently acquired a comp of four of Blossom Dearie's early albums. Just amazing. It is turning out to be one of the few records that my entire family enjoys.
	12:03pm burke: All croonin...
	12:03pm Rich in NC: Afternoon all, Hey Uncle Michael, let's do this thing!
	12:04pm Stanley: 1976, Yeehaw! Unc!
	12:04pm Dominick: Hey-O!
	12:04pm Jeff Golick: Hoo boy. Here we go. Was this on the Sat. Night Fever OST?
	12:05pm Stanley: Roll over Beethoven
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Bob! Doc! Jeff! Doug! Dean! Burke! Dom!
	12:06pm melinda: hi! Boogie down.
	12:06pm Artie: My 13th summer on this Earth. This should have me bursting with the feels.
	12:06pm Jeff Golick: @ndbob: Hi there!
	12:06pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! Melinda! Artie!
	12:07pm Elizabeth Fox: 1976. Oh dear.
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hi, ndbob! @Dean, Blossom is great stuff, got to like her hearing her on FMU.
	12:08pm Stanley: !976 a great crossroads year - Rock meets Disco meets Punk
	12:08pm Jeff Golick: What never fails to surprise during these charted singles shows: the degree to which certain songs remain embedded, fully formed, in the deeper reaches of my memory, held in amber until released once again by the sonic waves from wfmu.org & HDT.
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Heh. Lizzie!
	12:11pm ndbob: true Jeff
	12:11pm Dean: @doctorjazz: I've heard her off and on for years, and I always enjoy when UM plays a tune of hers, but I never figured I'd need to collect her records. When I saw the comp used for pennies on the dollar I thought, What the hey? It's a complete joy. Also picked up a comp of Arthur Lyman records. Hella fun.
	12:12pm Rich in NC: This is going to be a interesting show, back in 76 I was 21 and not to into the charted songs
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:13pm Marie: Hello UM and all. Happy Friday!
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	🛒 12:18pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I'm on Wikipedia looking at what music came out in 1976, which is interesting. I think of it as an era when the things I listened to weren't the hits.
	12:19pm ndbob: it was a time where i listened to a mix of LPs and top 40 radio
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: I may do a series on music released in a given year, that was not represented in the charts...not necessarily singles.
	12:20pm ndbob: sounds great UM
	12:21pm Jeff Golick: @UM: Do it. (That also pretty much describes the D:O Radio premium from the last marathon.)
	12:21pm doctorjazz: @Dean, was that a success at the parking lot record sale? (my safe record is the Ella Fitzgerald-Louis Armstrong stuff, wife and older daughter can listen and enjoy. Younger daughter likes all music, as long as it is punk-pop-metal...she just plugs in her phone/headphones all the time).
	12:22pm 23 Wolves: Boney M is so cool. This is going to be a great show!
	12:22pm Sue P.: I think of '76 as the height of AOR radio so lots of stations weren't necessarily playing the hits. At least in the Midwest!
	🛒 12:24pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Sorry you'll be changing times - you've been our companion on many boring drives along I5 from San Jose to Burbank.
	12:26pm Stanley: Klaatu. Nice one Unc.
	12:27pm Dean: @doctorjazz: The parking lot sale was a fabulous success, inasmuch as I purchased precisely nothing! I was able to resist picking up some $20 LPs (Roscoe Mitchell, Borbetomagus, etc.). Made me feel like a grown-up. I acquired the Blossom and Arthur stuff, et al., at a bookstore in town with an expanding CD and LP inventory. My thriftiness went to hell yesterday, though, when I ran to Amoeba to pick up Slayer, Led Zeppelin, Brahms, Saint-Saens, Bartok...and something else I've forgotten...
	12:27pm Stevel: Ahhh, Klattu. Wherefore art our happy conspiracies? You'd think fifteen would be too young to sit around stoned, listening to records, wouldn't you?
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: 23W! Sue! Steve!
	12:28pm Stevel: Also an obvious cover for the Carpenters.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, right in their wheelhouse.
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Steve, that was 15 for me too.
	12:32pm Stanley: Oh man, was 1976 really this good?
	12:34pm Stanley: Looking back, yup. What a soundtrack, I was seventeen and had just discoverd pot and girls.
	12:34pm johnk77: !976 great bisontennial show my first year full-time entertainment industry transitioning from vw repair
	12:35pm Jeff Golick: Hadn't realized this was a single (Bowie). So good.
	12:36pm Stevel: Stanley: I suppose I'd discovered girls too, although they seemed not to recognize my existence.
	12:36pm still b/p: Saw Bowie on this tour. It was actually a slightly bland concert, and, for that time in Boston Garden, pricey at ten bucks.
	12:37pm Stanley: Aw, Steve. Same here. Suppose that's why I put the pot before the girls.
	12:38pm Jeff Golick: Grass before...well...
	12:38pm johnk77: $3.50 still a bill graham presents price point @!976
	12:38pm Stevel: still b/p: memory jolt! I saw The Who (first concert) at McNichols Arena in Denver, for $8.50. Not an insignificant price.
	12:39pm Dean: We have a few other "safe record" bands: Dave Rawlings Machine, Barclay James Harvest, Bach keyboard recitals. Just remembered the other record I picked up at Amoeba: Paul O'Dette lute/cithern recital.
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: John! sb/p!
	12:44pm Dean: He's still the lead singer of Sweeney Todd, evidently.
	12:45pm Dean: Heard Nick live at the Whisky in '77, I believe. Maybe '78.
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: still?
	12:50pm doctorjazz: Rubber Band Man, great track
	12:51pm Dean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweeney_Todd_(band) See "Years active." News to me.
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Huh.
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Not so much disco yet...
	12:53pm Dean: I'm 98.9% certain that if I had this James Brown record it, too, would be a domestic "safe record."
	12:53pm doctorjazz: How about punk, seem to remember it hitting around then.
	12:54pm Dean: First trip to London was '76. Picked up the first Pistols single, learned about Blondie, missed Gryphon at the Marquee.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: I like James name-checking Ohio Players and KC &TSSB
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Punk didn't chart stateside in '76.
	12:55pm Stanley: I feel good, I feel like James Brown
	12:55pm doctorjazz: Woman Country singers are usually safe (except my younger daughter, as noted), Kacey Musgrave, Laura Cantrell.
	12:56pm Jeff Golick: Feeling like the hits of '76 were BIGGER than some of the hits of previous years/HDT shows.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm missing something on this "safe" business.
	12:57pm johnk77: obviously disputed by stooges but start date for punk is often given as ramones first trip to uk summer !976
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Don't mistake "charted" with "hit". Some were...some weren't.
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Still find it interesting that there was much funk/R and B charted so far, little disco.
	12:59pm Jeff Golick: Ok, point taken. But these charted hits were HUGE.
	12:59pm Stanley: White Boy
	12:59pm johnk77: stoooges started halloween !967!
	12:59pm melinda: 1976 was a funky year.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Doc, don't let my selections be taken for an accurate representation of the gestalt.
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: @UM: I think "safe" from earlier = "safe for family listening, all-ages car rides, good fodder for oldz and alienated teens"
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Ah.
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Basically, NOT SAFE-Destination Out!
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: I do a safe show. It's Post-Guliani Times Sqaure.
	1:04pm Doug Schulkind: Was she ...really... a brick house? Stay tuned for Hinky Dinky Time's 1977 special to find out!
	1:05pm Dean: Right, @Jeff G. I was pleasantly surprised by my family's collective response to Blossom Dearie. It went well beyond mere tolerance, which is what, say, Slayer commands. Heh, d:O invites mere tolerance at my home. The only stuff that ever stimulates express negativity is the really loud ear-shredding noise I play now and then and, occasionally, really offensive shit like some rap, metal. I have never dared to play what is, to me, among the most embarrassing records of all time, The Mentors' "Woman from Sodom." Shudder.
	🛒 1:06pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: At a Compaq company holiday party in the 90s they played "Play That Funky Music" but it had been edited to have nothing where "white boy" would have been.
	1:07pm Uncle Michael: Well, that's just precious, Lizzie. Jesus. The Peninsula?
	1:09pm hyde: aw, i missed Klaatu
	1:13pm Dean: I want to work for the company that plays "Woman from Sodom" at the holiday party. If only for a day.
	1:17pm johnk77: politricks message from rosanne, john carter+ other cashes https://www.facebook.com/RosanneCash/
	1:17pm Stevel: Origins of Psycho-Billy=Johnny Cash?
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Lux and Ivy probably heard Johnny's record.
	1:20pm johnk77: johnny was super-nice and calm when i met him in !979, but a lot of the stories have to be true
	1:26pm Rich in NC: Real nice Uncle Michael
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Rich.
	1:29pm melinda: Raisins don't have roots.
	1:36pm melinda: Car Wash! yay
	1:36pm Dominick: Car Wash! I had this pegged at the second clap.
	1:36pm johnk77: the red steagall is on amazon prime music:> also my vacation coming up includes taos w/western music
	1:36pm melinda: One of my favorite albums to listen to in summertime.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: It's a great soundtrack....mom dropped us off at the theater to see the movie.
	1:38pm melinda: @Dominick exactly!
	1:39pm melinda: I was playing Car Wash once at the store where I work and a customer asked me in an earnest tone 'Do you like funky music?'
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Do you like flavorful food?
	1:42pm melinda: haha
	1:44pm still b/p: I've allllways enjoyed Lou doing this, even as a guilty pleasure when disco-ish tracks were musica non grata for me and peers.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: Lou is my "read the phonebook" guy.
	1:46pm melinda: Aaahhh....Dancing Queen
	1:46pm doctorjazz: I'm dancing.
	1:46pm Jeff Golick: MASSIVE
	1:46pm hyde: Feel the beat from the tambourine
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: Dancing Queen is a song about "rock music". Think about that.
	1:48pm hyde: i love the delivery on that "leave 'em burning and then you're gone" line
	1:49pm chromaphone: I never get sick of this song for some reason.
	1:49pm hyde: now i want to watch Abba: The Movie
	1:49pm ndbob: this is a fave as are many ABBA songs
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I'm missing Rik Mayall now.
	1:50pm Sue P.: Love this Cliff Richard song....I just played this 45 at a bar a few weeks ago to a very good reaction.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad people dug it, Sue.
	1:51pm Sue P.: Always be missing Rik Mayall.
	1:56pm 23 Wolves: Tex killin' it!
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: Disco Duck is the missus' cue to jump over to our ad hoc jukebox to hit the 'next' button.
	1:59pm melinda: Good point about Lou transitioning to disco. Such a smooth song. That was a great set.
	2:00pm melinda: I liked the pee bottle that was mistaken for a bomb.
	2:01pm doctorjazz: That's a pretty good high note, "walking awayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."
	2:02pm johnk77: boston w/hagar in support 1 of the big $+controversy tours of this era
	2:02pm Jeff Golick: As a youth, in '76, in the Boston suburbs, I heard this...a lot.
	🛒 2:02pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I never get tired of ABBA or this Boston song. Go ahead judge me.
	2:02pm Stevel: Hmmmm, Boston. So conflicted. Sounded good on the radio as I ran my paper route.
	2:03pm chromaphone: Did anyone see the footage of Tom Scholtz playing the hammond on the extras of the Soundbreaking documentary? Holy moly!!!!
	2:03pm burke: Ridin in the rodeo!
	🛒 2:04pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Cowboy Song is fuckin genius. "A certain female".
	2:04pm melinda: Someone recently played a nice version of More Than a Feeling performed by a high school chorus/band.
	2:04pm melinda: What's the Soundbreaking documentary?
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Jeff, we all heard it a lot, everywhere.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Chromaphone! Nope.
	2:06pm Sue P.: The use of "female" in both Cowboy Song and Jailbreak just so good. Only Phil could pull it off.
	2:06pm burke: This song is a really great reminder that no matter how badly we tarnish our reputation, non-Americans will always be, on some level, totally in love with America.
	2:06pm johnk77: tour i wish i had seen thin lizzy support clover
	2:06pm Jeff Golick: Yeah, @UM, no doubt that's true. But I still felt a kind of special geographical kinship.
	2:06pm chromaphone: www.pbs.org... I did not care for the stuff about current music but loved all the stuff about my favorite recordings. Learned a lot. Produced by George Martin. Hi UM! The Sholtz footage is kind of jaw-dropping. What a talent.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Personally, I think the cow bell is just right.
	2:07pm Jeff Golick: ...as perhaps you do, with Kansas.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Uh...
	2:08pm hyde: as a fellow Masshole, i support JG's thesis
	🛒 2:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Ah you're getting into my wheelhouse now. There used to be a car in our neighborhood with BOC symbols on the sides and back and their license plate was something BOC related. This was about 15 years ago - hard core fans.
	2:08pm Jeff Golick: "July 2007"
	2:08pm Stevel: It's okay, UM. You're among friends.
	🛒 2:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: burke, so true.
	2:09pm melinda: (Don't Fear) The Reaper was not on my radar before the SNL skit, so when I later heard it used in a serious context for an ending scene in Six Feet Under it made me guffaw.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: I didn't grow up here. I don't even have a sentimental attachment to them.
	2:10pm Jeff Golick: Where does the umlaut go?
	2:10pm ndbob: one of my fave 45s from 76 - close to the top
	2:11pm Stevel: Fog hat is just a damned good band.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: I have a suggestion, Jeff...
	2:12pm Stevel: Foghat. Fucking autocorrect.
	2:13pm Stevel: When umlauts are outlawed, only outlaws will have umlauts.
	2:13pm melinda: I like how Clay Pigeon calls them The Hat. Maybe everyone does and I missed it.
	2:13pm frenchee: I missed most of the "spirit of 76" party, but at least I got to hear Foghat.
	2:13pm Jeff Golick: Mmm-hmm? Here's the umlaut story, from an article in the (Jewish) Forward, of all places: forward.com...
	2:14pm frenchee: oops, I mean "the Hat"
	2:15pm hyde: Foghat is playing at the Minnesota State Fair next weekend
	2:16pm melinda: Then there's The Dan.
	2:16pm Uncle Michael: Frenchee!
	2:18pm frenchee: Hiya U.M! "is there gas'n the car? yes there's gas'n the car..."
	2:19pm frenchee: or, as some Massholes might say, CAH
	2:24pm melinda: I like this kind of soft rock.
	2:26pm hyde: Bellamy Brothers are at the Western Legends Roundup Kanab High School Auditorium in Kanab UT tomorrow night
	2:26pm Uncle Michael: Man...too short notice!
	2:27pm hyde: they have a Norway tour in September!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: This was actually written for a jeans company's adverts in the UK.
	2:28pm frenchee: ha ha ha, @hyde you should offer your concert-searching services to Clay Pigeon.
	2:28pm Jeff Golick: I can honestly say I haven't heard this Jeans song before. Pretty sure I would've remembered.
	2:29pm frenchee: wondering how soon Eric Carmen and/or Gilbert O'Sullivan will make an appearance #cringe
	2:29pm ronzoni: had to remember my password. third try was the charm.
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: Sad to say, Frenchee... Ron!
	2:31pm ronzoni: UM!
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: "key change"
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Bryan Ferry covered this.
	2:34pm ndbob: yep - had forgotten about that
	2:37pm Rich in NC: Thanks for the G+L
	2:37pm burke: Getting into some heavy schmaltz. It wouldn't be '76 without it.
	🛒 2:37pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Which song did Bryan Ferry cover? I remember Let your Love Flow and Howzat but the others, no. so true, burke.
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie, he covered Heart on my Sleeve.
	2:39pm Rich in NC: I would like to hear that
	2:39pm northguineahills: So, you're playing songs all from my birth year (I'm a little slow).
	2:39pm hyde: this set is reminding about why punk started
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Rich, I'll try and remember to play it soon.
	🛒 2:40pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: this is why we listened to FM
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: I was watching Midnight Special and loving it.
	2:41pm Rich in NC: Thank you, and thanks for a trip back to 76 excellent show
	2:47pm Stevel: I still love this song. Really stood out. Also, hail Phil Kenzie!
	2:47pm ronzoni: Once in a while when I see a FB post that asks for the best opening line to a song I use this one.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: It's pretty good.
	2:49pm hyde: i have a weird brain disorder that has always made me think this song was not Year of the Cat, but Year of the Kite
	2:49pm Jeff Golick: Played this on the piano as a yoot.
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: the plane?
	2:50pm Alex in Illinois: First time I heard Al Stewart, I mistook him for George Harrison
	2:50pm burke: Was '76 the Year of the Cat? Rabbit? Dragon? Dog?
	2:51pm hyde: @burke Year of the Dragon
	🛒 2:52pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Wikipedia entry for the song says "The Cat is one of the twelve signs of the Vietnamese zodiac. It corresponds to that of the Rabbit in the Chinese zodiac. At the time of the song's release, the most recent Year of the Rabbit had been 11 February 1975 to 30 January 1976; thus, the song was recorded in the Vietnamese Year of the Cat."
	2:53pm hyde: @Sweet Corn Lizzie thank you!
	2:53pm burke: Thanks guys. Glad to hear Al Stewart wasn't just pulling that stuff out of nowhere.
	2:54pm northguineahills: Now for a palette cleanser.
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: I'll accept that.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: The Band, great track!
	2:57pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: Thanks UM, another one bites the dust! Was fun!
	2:58pm ronzoni: thanks, mike
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks, Uncle M. See you bright and (cough) early next Friday.
	2:58pm hyde: closing with the band in the year of the Last Waltz? pro DJ move. thanks!
	3:00pm northguineahills: Thanks UM!
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM! Get some rest!
	3:01pm melinda: Fun show, UM!
	3:01pm Stevel: Pasta lumbago to you all!
	3:03pm frenchee: Thank YOU Uncle M~
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Till next we meet...

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 25, 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.

Listener comments!
	12:01pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	12:01pm doctorjazz: Checking in, hi all!
	12:02pm ndbob: hi doctor jazz!
	12:02pm Jeff Golick: Ready to break out!
	12:02pm ndbob: and jeff
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: Heeeeee's EVERY doggone thing!
	12:03pm Dean: Recently acquired a comp of four of Blossom Dearie's early albums. Just amazing. It is turning out to be one of the few records that my entire family enjoys.
	12:03pm burke: All croonin...
	12:03pm Rich in NC: Afternoon all, Hey Uncle Michael, let's do this thing!
	12:04pm Stanley: 1976, Yeehaw! Unc!
	12:04pm Dominick: Hey-O!
	12:04pm Jeff Golick: Hoo boy. Here we go. Was this on the Sat. Night Fever OST?
	12:05pm Stanley: Roll over Beethoven
	12:05pm Uncle Michael: Bob! Doc! Jeff! Doug! Dean! Burke! Dom!
	12:06pm melinda: hi! Boogie down.
	12:06pm Artie: My 13th summer on this Earth. This should have me bursting with the feels.
	12:06pm Jeff Golick: @ndbob: Hi there!
	12:06pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! Melinda! Artie!
	12:07pm Elizabeth Fox: 1976. Oh dear.
	12:08pm doctorjazz: Hi, ndbob! @Dean, Blossom is great stuff, got to like her hearing her on FMU.
	12:08pm Stanley: !976 a great crossroads year - Rock meets Disco meets Punk
	12:08pm Jeff Golick: What never fails to surprise during these charted singles shows: the degree to which certain songs remain embedded, fully formed, in the deeper reaches of my memory, held in amber until released once again by the sonic waves from wfmu.org & HDT.
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Heh. Lizzie!
	12:11pm ndbob: true Jeff
	12:11pm Dean: @doctorjazz: I've heard her off and on for years, and I always enjoy when UM plays a tune of hers, but I never figured I'd need to collect her records. When I saw the comp used for pennies on the dollar I thought, What the hey? It's a complete joy. Also picked up a comp of Arthur Lyman records. Hella fun.
	12:12pm Rich in NC: This is going to be a interesting show, back in 76 I was 21 and not to into the charted songs
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:13pm Marie: Hello UM and all. Happy Friday!
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Marie!
	🛒 12:18pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I'm on Wikipedia looking at what music came out in 1976, which is interesting. I think of it as an era when the things I listened to weren't the hits.
	12:19pm ndbob: it was a time where i listened to a mix of LPs and top 40 radio
	12:20pm Uncle Michael: I may do a series on music released in a given year, that was not represented in the charts...not necessarily singles.
	12:20pm ndbob: sounds great UM
	12:21pm Jeff Golick: @UM: Do it. (That also pretty much describes the D:O Radio premium from the last marathon.)
	12:21pm doctorjazz: @Dean, was that a success at the parking lot record sale? (my safe record is the Ella Fitzgerald-Louis Armstrong stuff, wife and older daughter can listen and enjoy. Younger daughter likes all music, as long as it is punk-pop-metal...she just plugs in her phone/headphones all the time).
	12:22pm 23 Wolves: Boney M is so cool. This is going to be a great show!
	12:22pm Sue P.: I think of '76 as the height of AOR radio so lots of stations weren't necessarily playing the hits. At least in the Midwest!
	🛒 12:24pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Sorry you'll be changing times - you've been our companion on many boring drives along I5 from San Jose to Burbank.
	12:26pm Stanley: Klaatu. Nice one Unc.
	12:27pm Dean: @doctorjazz: The parking lot sale was a fabulous success, inasmuch as I purchased precisely nothing! I was able to resist picking up some $20 LPs (Roscoe Mitchell, Borbetomagus, etc.). Made me feel like a grown-up. I acquired the Blossom and Arthur stuff, et al., at a bookstore in town with an expanding CD and LP inventory. My thriftiness went to hell yesterday, though, when I ran to Amoeba to pick up Slayer, Led Zeppelin, Brahms, Saint-Saens, Bartok...and something else I've forgotten...
	12:27pm Stevel: Ahhh, Klattu. Wherefore art our happy conspiracies? You'd think fifteen would be too young to sit around stoned, listening to records, wouldn't you?
	12:28pm Uncle Michael: 23W! Sue! Steve!
	12:28pm Stevel: Also an obvious cover for the Carpenters.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, right in their wheelhouse.
	12:31pm Uncle Michael: Steve, that was 15 for me too.
	12:32pm Stanley: Oh man, was 1976 really this good?
	12:34pm Stanley: Looking back, yup. What a soundtrack, I was seventeen and had just discoverd pot and girls.
	12:34pm johnk77: !976 great bisontennial show my first year full-time entertainment industry transitioning from vw repair
	12:35pm Jeff Golick: Hadn't realized this was a single (Bowie). So good.
	12:36pm Stevel: Stanley: I suppose I'd discovered girls too, although they seemed not to recognize my existence.
	12:36pm still b/p: Saw Bowie on this tour. It was actually a slightly bland concert, and, for that time in Boston Garden, pricey at ten bucks.
	12:37pm Stanley: Aw, Steve. Same here. Suppose that's why I put the pot before the girls.
	12:38pm Jeff Golick: Grass before...well...
	12:38pm johnk77: $3.50 still a bill graham presents price point @!976
	12:38pm Stevel: still b/p: memory jolt! I saw The Who (first concert) at McNichols Arena in Denver, for $8.50. Not an insignificant price.
	12:39pm Dean: We have a few other "safe record" bands: Dave Rawlings Machine, Barclay James Harvest, Bach keyboard recitals. Just remembered the other record I picked up at Amoeba: Paul O'Dette lute/cithern recital.
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: John! sb/p!
	12:44pm Dean: He's still the lead singer of Sweeney Todd, evidently.
	12:45pm Dean: Heard Nick live at the Whisky in '77, I believe. Maybe '78.
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: still?
	12:50pm doctorjazz: Rubber Band Man, great track
	12:51pm Dean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweeney_Todd_(band) See "Years active." News to me.
	12:52pm Uncle Michael: Huh.
	12:52pm doctorjazz: Not so much disco yet...
	12:53pm Dean: I'm 98.9% certain that if I had this James Brown record it, too, would be a domestic "safe record."
	12:53pm doctorjazz: How about punk, seem to remember it hitting around then.
	12:54pm Dean: First trip to London was '76. Picked up the first Pistols single, learned about Blondie, missed Gryphon at the Marquee.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: I like James name-checking Ohio Players and KC &TSSB
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Punk didn't chart stateside in '76.
	12:55pm Stanley: I feel good, I feel like James Brown
	12:55pm doctorjazz: Woman Country singers are usually safe (except my younger daughter, as noted), Kacey Musgrave, Laura Cantrell.
	12:56pm Jeff Golick: Feeling like the hits of '76 were BIGGER than some of the hits of previous years/HDT shows.
	12:56pm Uncle Michael: I'm missing something on this "safe" business.
	12:57pm johnk77: obviously disputed by stooges but start date for punk is often given as ramones first trip to uk summer !976
	12:57pm Uncle Michael: Don't mistake "charted" with "hit". Some were...some weren't.
	12:58pm doctorjazz: Still find it interesting that there was much funk/R and B charted so far, little disco.
	12:59pm Jeff Golick: Ok, point taken. But these charted hits were HUGE.
	12:59pm Stanley: White Boy
	12:59pm johnk77: stoooges started halloween !967!
	12:59pm melinda: 1976 was a funky year.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Doc, don't let my selections be taken for an accurate representation of the gestalt.
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: @UM: I think "safe" from earlier = "safe for family listening, all-ages car rides, good fodder for oldz and alienated teens"
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Ah.
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Basically, NOT SAFE-Destination Out!
	1:04pm Uncle Michael: I do a safe show. It's Post-Guliani Times Sqaure.
	1:04pm Doug Schulkind: Was she ...really... a brick house? Stay tuned for Hinky Dinky Time's 1977 special to find out!
	1:05pm Dean: Right, @Jeff G. I was pleasantly surprised by my family's collective response to Blossom Dearie. It went well beyond mere tolerance, which is what, say, Slayer commands. Heh, d:O invites mere tolerance at my home. The only stuff that ever stimulates express negativity is the really loud ear-shredding noise I play now and then and, occasionally, really offensive shit like some rap, metal. I have never dared to play what is, to me, among the most embarrassing records of all time, The Mentors' "Woman from Sodom." Shudder.
	🛒 1:06pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: At a Compaq company holiday party in the 90s they played "Play That Funky Music" but it had been edited to have nothing where "white boy" would have been.
	1:07pm Uncle Michael: Well, that's just precious, Lizzie. Jesus. The Peninsula?
	1:09pm hyde: aw, i missed Klaatu
	1:13pm Dean: I want to work for the company that plays "Woman from Sodom" at the holiday party. If only for a day.
	1:17pm johnk77: politricks message from rosanne, john carter+ other cashes https://www.facebook.com/RosanneCash/
	1:17pm Stevel: Origins of Psycho-Billy=Johnny Cash?
	1:18pm Uncle Michael: Lux and Ivy probably heard Johnny's record.
	1:20pm johnk77: johnny was super-nice and calm when i met him in !979, but a lot of the stories have to be true
	1:26pm Rich in NC: Real nice Uncle Michael
	1:26pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, Rich.
	1:29pm melinda: Raisins don't have roots.
	1:36pm melinda: Car Wash! yay
	1:36pm Dominick: Car Wash! I had this pegged at the second clap.
	1:36pm johnk77: the red steagall is on amazon prime music:> also my vacation coming up includes taos w/western music
	1:36pm melinda: One of my favorite albums to listen to in summertime.
	1:37pm Uncle Michael: It's a great soundtrack....mom dropped us off at the theater to see the movie.
	1:38pm melinda: @Dominick exactly!
	1:39pm melinda: I was playing Car Wash once at the store where I work and a customer asked me in an earnest tone 'Do you like funky music?'
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Do you like flavorful food?
	1:42pm melinda: haha
	1:44pm still b/p: I've allllways enjoyed Lou doing this, even as a guilty pleasure when disco-ish tracks were musica non grata for me and peers.
	1:45pm Uncle Michael: Lou is my "read the phonebook" guy.
	1:46pm melinda: Aaahhh....Dancing Queen
	1:46pm doctorjazz: I'm dancing.
	1:46pm Jeff Golick: MASSIVE
	1:46pm hyde: Feel the beat from the tambourine
	1:47pm Uncle Michael: Dancing Queen is a song about "rock music". Think about that.
	1:48pm hyde: i love the delivery on that "leave 'em burning and then you're gone" line
	1:49pm chromaphone: I never get sick of this song for some reason.
	1:49pm hyde: now i want to watch Abba: The Movie
	1:49pm ndbob: this is a fave as are many ABBA songs
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: I'm missing Rik Mayall now.
	1:50pm Sue P.: Love this Cliff Richard song....I just played this 45 at a bar a few weeks ago to a very good reaction.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: I'm glad people dug it, Sue.
	1:51pm Sue P.: Always be missing Rik Mayall.
	1:56pm 23 Wolves: Tex killin' it!
	1:58pm Rich in Washington: Disco Duck is the missus' cue to jump over to our ad hoc jukebox to hit the 'next' button.
	1:59pm melinda: Good point about Lou transitioning to disco. Such a smooth song. That was a great set.
	2:00pm melinda: I liked the pee bottle that was mistaken for a bomb.
	2:01pm doctorjazz: That's a pretty good high note, "walking awayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy..."
	2:02pm johnk77: boston w/hagar in support 1 of the big $+controversy tours of this era
	2:02pm Jeff Golick: As a youth, in '76, in the Boston suburbs, I heard this...a lot.
	🛒 2:02pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I never get tired of ABBA or this Boston song. Go ahead judge me.
	2:02pm Stevel: Hmmmm, Boston. So conflicted. Sounded good on the radio as I ran my paper route.
	2:03pm chromaphone: Did anyone see the footage of Tom Scholtz playing the hammond on the extras of the Soundbreaking documentary? Holy moly!!!!
	2:03pm burke: Ridin in the rodeo!
	🛒 2:04pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Cowboy Song is fuckin genius. "A certain female".
	2:04pm melinda: Someone recently played a nice version of More Than a Feeling performed by a high school chorus/band.
	2:04pm melinda: What's the Soundbreaking documentary?
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Jeff, we all heard it a lot, everywhere.
	2:05pm Uncle Michael: Chromaphone! Nope.
	2:06pm Sue P.: The use of "female" in both Cowboy Song and Jailbreak just so good. Only Phil could pull it off.
	2:06pm burke: This song is a really great reminder that no matter how badly we tarnish our reputation, non-Americans will always be, on some level, totally in love with America.
	2:06pm johnk77: tour i wish i had seen thin lizzy support clover
	2:06pm Jeff Golick: Yeah, @UM, no doubt that's true. But I still felt a kind of special geographical kinship.
	2:06pm chromaphone: www.pbs.org... I did not care for the stuff about current music but loved all the stuff about my favorite recordings. Learned a lot. Produced by George Martin. Hi UM! The Sholtz footage is kind of jaw-dropping. What a talent.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Personally, I think the cow bell is just right.
	2:07pm Jeff Golick: ...as perhaps you do, with Kansas.
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Uh...
	2:08pm hyde: as a fellow Masshole, i support JG's thesis
	🛒 2:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Ah you're getting into my wheelhouse now. There used to be a car in our neighborhood with BOC symbols on the sides and back and their license plate was something BOC related. This was about 15 years ago - hard core fans.
	2:08pm Jeff Golick: "July 2007"
	2:08pm Stevel: It's okay, UM. You're among friends.
	🛒 2:08pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: burke, so true.
	2:09pm melinda: (Don't Fear) The Reaper was not on my radar before the SNL skit, so when I later heard it used in a serious context for an ending scene in Six Feet Under it made me guffaw.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: I didn't grow up here. I don't even have a sentimental attachment to them.
	2:10pm Jeff Golick: Where does the umlaut go?
	2:10pm ndbob: one of my fave 45s from 76 - close to the top
	2:11pm Stevel: Fog hat is just a damned good band.
	2:11pm Uncle Michael: I have a suggestion, Jeff...
	2:12pm Stevel: Foghat. Fucking autocorrect.
	2:13pm Stevel: When umlauts are outlawed, only outlaws will have umlauts.
	2:13pm melinda: I like how Clay Pigeon calls them The Hat. Maybe everyone does and I missed it.
	2:13pm frenchee: I missed most of the "spirit of 76" party, but at least I got to hear Foghat.
	2:13pm Jeff Golick: Mmm-hmm? Here's the umlaut story, from an article in the (Jewish) Forward, of all places: forward.com...
	2:14pm frenchee: oops, I mean "the Hat"
	2:15pm hyde: Foghat is playing at the Minnesota State Fair next weekend
	2:16pm melinda: Then there's The Dan.
	2:16pm Uncle Michael: Frenchee!
	2:18pm frenchee: Hiya U.M! "is there gas'n the car? yes there's gas'n the car..."
	2:19pm frenchee: or, as some Massholes might say, CAH
	2:24pm melinda: I like this kind of soft rock.
	2:26pm hyde: Bellamy Brothers are at the Western Legends Roundup Kanab High School Auditorium in Kanab UT tomorrow night
	2:26pm Uncle Michael: Man...too short notice!
	2:27pm hyde: they have a Norway tour in September!
	2:27pm Uncle Michael: This was actually written for a jeans company's adverts in the UK.
	2:28pm frenchee: ha ha ha, @hyde you should offer your concert-searching services to Clay Pigeon.
	2:28pm Jeff Golick: I can honestly say I haven't heard this Jeans song before. Pretty sure I would've remembered.
	2:29pm frenchee: wondering how soon Eric Carmen and/or Gilbert O'Sullivan will make an appearance #cringe
	2:29pm ronzoni: had to remember my password. third try was the charm.
	2:30pm Uncle Michael: Sad to say, Frenchee... Ron!
	2:31pm ronzoni: UM!
	2:31pm Uncle Michael: "key change"
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Bryan Ferry covered this.
	2:34pm ndbob: yep - had forgotten about that
	2:37pm Rich in NC: Thanks for the G+L
	2:37pm burke: Getting into some heavy schmaltz. It wouldn't be '76 without it.
	🛒 2:37pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Which song did Bryan Ferry cover? I remember Let your Love Flow and Howzat but the others, no. so true, burke.
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie, he covered Heart on my Sleeve.
	2:39pm Rich in NC: I would like to hear that
	2:39pm northguineahills: So, you're playing songs all from my birth year (I'm a little slow).
	2:39pm hyde: this set is reminding about why punk started
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Rich, I'll try and remember to play it soon.
	🛒 2:40pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: this is why we listened to FM
	2:41pm Uncle Michael: I was watching Midnight Special and loving it.
	2:41pm Rich in NC: Thank you, and thanks for a trip back to 76 excellent show
	2:47pm Stevel: I still love this song. Really stood out. Also, hail Phil Kenzie!
	2:47pm ronzoni: Once in a while when I see a FB post that asks for the best opening line to a song I use this one.
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: It's pretty good.
	2:49pm hyde: i have a weird brain disorder that has always made me think this song was not Year of the Cat, but Year of the Kite
	2:49pm Jeff Golick: Played this on the piano as a yoot.
	2:50pm Uncle Michael: the plane?
	2:50pm Alex in Illinois: First time I heard Al Stewart, I mistook him for George Harrison
	2:50pm burke: Was '76 the Year of the Cat? Rabbit? Dragon? Dog?
	2:51pm hyde: @burke Year of the Dragon
	🛒 2:52pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Wikipedia entry for the song says "The Cat is one of the twelve signs of the Vietnamese zodiac. It corresponds to that of the Rabbit in the Chinese zodiac. At the time of the song's release, the most recent Year of the Rabbit had been 11 February 1975 to 30 January 1976; thus, the song was recorded in the Vietnamese Year of the Cat."
	2:53pm hyde: @Sweet Corn Lizzie thank you!
	2:53pm burke: Thanks guys. Glad to hear Al Stewart wasn't just pulling that stuff out of nowhere.
	2:54pm northguineahills: Now for a palette cleanser.
	2:55pm Uncle Michael: I'll accept that.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: The Band, great track!
	2:57pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	2:57pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone.
	2:57pm doctorjazz: Thanks UM, another one bites the dust! Was fun!
	2:58pm ronzoni: thanks, mike
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks, Uncle M. See you bright and (cough) early next Friday.
	2:58pm hyde: closing with the band in the year of the Last Waltz? pro DJ move. thanks!
	3:00pm northguineahills: Thanks UM!
	3:00pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM! Get some rest!
	3:01pm melinda: Fun show, UM!
	3:01pm Stevel: Pasta lumbago to you all!
	3:03pm frenchee: Thank YOU Uncle M~
	3:04pm Uncle Michael: Till next we meet...
