WFMU: Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from September 29, 2017

Listener comments!
	7:34am Uncle Michael: Good morning, truckers.
	7:49am annie: yay!!!
	7:51am Uncle Michael: Good morning, Annie. Welcome to the Road Gang.
	7:51am annie: to be sure i'm on the right page, what tune should i be hearing now? the pop-up says it's lucho bermudez... GM UM!!
	7:52am Uncle Michael: You should be hearing trucker radio.
	7:53am annie: what i'm actaully hearing is some truckin' stuff...ok, yeah.. i hear it now. just tuned in! thanks.
	8:00am annie: many years ago, as i was tootlin' around town in upstate NY, my radio tuner switched to an omaha station and stayed there for about half an hour. it was so surreal. the explanation for that was atmospheric confusion due to hurricanes passing around the country..
	8:03am doctorjazz: Hey all, what time do the festivities actually start?
	8:04am Uncle Michael: Today, I began the audio treat at 7:26 AM, ET.
	8:05am doctorjazz: Wow, that's really early out in your neck of the woods, UM!
	8:05am annie: hey doc! this is the inner sanctum of radio...the pre-show show
	8:07am Uncle Michael: I'm up at 6:00, normally.
	8:09am doctorjazz: OK, generally get to work at about 8, have to go straight to the stream; this is really cool, old timey stuff now...
	8:13am doctorjazz: (been going to Wake and Bake, which is fun too...1st world problems!)
	8:14am Uncle Michael: I first heard Dave Nemo on October 22, 1988...driving from Dallas to Houston at night...between two Grateful Dead concerts.
	8:14am annie: i don't do wakenbake..i've opted for wwoz. UM, are they still broadcasting this show?
	8:16am doctorjazz: Haven't listened to WWOZ, any particular shows/times you like, @Annie?
	8:17am doctorjazz: (loving this show, btw, this show was from 89, a year after that Dead marathon UM?
	8:18am doctorjazz: did my Dead marathoning about a decade earlier...
	8:18am dan: 1977 - The year of Studio 54, Son of Sam, the blackout, leisure suits, Saturday Night Fever, Star Wars and Norman Lear prime time shows
	8:19am annie: i really love the personal touch to this announcer's style. well doc, i mostly listen in the mornings, each deejay has a style, if you like brazilian, then saturdays are good starting around 1:00, going for about 5 hours. the station spends a lot of time highlighting their festivals, so you get lots of live broadcasts especially during festival times.
	8:21am dan: Commercial radio sucks today. It's more business than personality.
	8:21am annie: my fave OZ deejay is Mark landesman on sunday ams starting at 6, going to 9, CDT. he plays nice jazz and some good blues. i sent him some music of a nola jazzman i knew in NY, Al Gallodoro. ... so i'm partial.
	8:22am doctorjazz: Ahh, got to Jazz Fest twice in NO, loved it, now about 15 years ago (was scheduled to go again 4 years ago for my birthday, but my mother passed away right at the time and had to cancel...)
	8:22am Uncle Michael: The Road Gang is on satellite these days, but without Dave.
	8:24am doctorjazz: It's a really nice mix of country/bluegrass/gospel.
	8:24am annie: you'll get back, doc. festival is crazy time. i've thought of going, but not sure i could keep up with the 24-7 jollity..yeah, that makes sense UM, truckers can use the serius radio...
	8:25am annie: sirius..
	8:26am doctorjazz: That's what I need, something to keep the bugs off my windshield...
	8:27am doctorjazz: JazzFest is pretty crazy, but you don't have to get to everything that is going on, pacing is key (especially if it's 95 degrees...). Shows all day, clubs every night, could easily wear yourself out.
	8:28am dan: Where is JazzFest?
	8:28am annie: man, did walter brennan have a great long run.. yeah doc, i wear out just listening to the livewire. it's in new orleans dan
	8:29am Uncle Michael: Dan, it's in New Orleans. I went once in the early '90s.
	8:29am annie: and, to be honest, i just wouldn't have fun in nola, the oppressive heat is not for me, so i get my vicarious thrills via radio
	8:34am doctorjazz: Heat is pretty bad in NO; JazzFest is usually the last week of April and the 1st of May. It's already quite hot, but not as bad as it gets later I'd guess. Of the 2 festivals I got to, the second one had light rain most of the day, which made it MUCH more comfortable (highlights: Stevie Ray Vaughan set, and Neville Brothers with Herbie Hancock sitting in, man...)
	8:34am doctorjazz: (the Gospel tent was fabulous whenever I wandered in, though...)
	8:35am dan: RAY STEVENS
	8:43am annie: yeah, i've heard about the gospel tent.. i'd hang there all day.. a friend who lives in richmond goes every year! has brass passes pre-ordered.. he's addicted.
	8:49am annie: this is a wonderful show, UM, what a treat.
	8:53am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Annie. I'm really glad I have a Nemo aircheck. I haven't located any others.
	8:53am annie: i didn't actually miss buddy guy on tuesday, i heard the show from my apartment next door.. i was told that no sound came out of the building.... they were wrong. i would have sat out front in a lawn chair..
	8:54am dan: The We Didn't Start The Fire of country music
	8:54am doctorjazz: This is great! Nice way to start Friday.
	8:54am doctorjazz: (I'd like to catch Buddy Guy...)
	8:55am annie: he's on tour... might see where he is if you can catch him. i'm sorry i forgot where you live doc..
	8:59am glenn: that's some stellar banjo playing going on right now.
	8:59am doctorjazz: NY/NJ area, I'll Google, thanks Annie.
	8:59am ausmanx: this is all FAR too genteel for trucker radio. you need some AUSTRALIAN trucker radio to really get things started in the morning...
	9:00am annie: oh, geez, a whole new thing to listen to, thanks aus
	9:01am dan: Blossom, Jimmy and the Black Pope to open things as always
	9:02am Rich in NC: Good morning all, Hey Uncle Michael!
	9:02am WebHamster Henry: Oog! Why does everything smell like diesel?
	9:03am davefromtoronto: yo UM! the black pope of WFMU!
	9:03am dan: Nice shout out to Long Island. I live in Queens
	9:04am Uncle Michael: Rich! Henry! Dave!
	9:04am PsychopathJimFields: Good morning, UM!!
	9:05am Uncle Michael: Jim!
	9:06am doctorjazz: The Hits! Nothing but the Hits! On Hit Radio, WFMU!!!!
	9:06am Uncle Michael: The kids love the hits.
	9:08am PsychopathJimFields: Nothing says junior year of high school like Supertramp.
	9:09am Uncle Michael: We must both be class of '78, Jim.
	9:10am Goyim in the AM: ...and nothing says "romantic comedy trailer" like Solsbury Hill. Hi, folks!
	9:11am Uncle Michael: Goyim! What romcom? I missed all of them.
	9:11am joe: 'Ello folks. UM you seem to have the masses energized this morning
	9:12am PsychopathJimFields: I was 1980. Breakfast in America was huge in '77-'78
	9:12am glenn: tom's first big hit?
	9:13am davefromtoronto: "YOU"RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!"
	9:13am dan: The old vinyl sound is like a new car smell. Heavenly
	9:13am Goyim in the AM: Here is the true story of why I am no longer allowed to pick the movie, UM: www.rogerebert.com...
	9:13am Uncle Michael: Joe! Glenn! Tom's first chart single...big hit? Not sure it was big....
	9:15am glenn: i seem to recall it being pretty big here.
	9:15am PsychopathJimFields: I think Refugee was his first
	9:15am dan: Graham Parker's version of Hold Back The Night rivals the original. I can't decide which one is better
	9:16am Uncle Michael: Refugee was from the 2nd album.
	9:16am glenn: and then, if memory serves, they were dylan's band for the slow train coming tour.
	9:16am doctorjazz: Hold Back The Night charted? Wasn't actually listening to "hit radio" at this point...
	9:17am Stanley: Hey-up, howya doing Uncle Michael. First half-day Friday I've had in ages. So happy to be able to tune in again.
	9:18am Uncle Michael: "charted" is a low bar Stanley!
	9:18am joe: @glenn I think there is something to be said in how you phrased that. It was still a time when "hits" could be regional. Although this was an all over hit there still could have been those areas where it took over the local supermarket
	9:19am PsychopathJimFields: OK. It's the first one I heard, still trapped in AM radio Hell.
	9:20am dan: Spent many a summer at Rockaway Beach.
	9:21am davefromtoronto: ramones tunes still sound so great.
	9:21am dan: Have the Rolling Stones killed
	9:23am PsychopathJimFields: When this Star Wars was current, we made a family trip to the South Mountain Arena to see Meco, at my brother's request.
	9:26am Uncle Michael: So...you're brother. He's a little weird?
	9:27am PsychopathJimFields: Yeah. Wasn't something I would have done on my own. I didn't even tell my friends.
	9:28am Uncle Michael: Heh.
	9:29am PsychopathJimFields: In those days, I was firmly in the "Disco Sucks" camp.
	9:29am Stanley: Al! Get down.
	9:30am davefromtoronto: i wonder what will be charting in 2077...
	9:31am ausmanx: goodness, did Al really chart with this? good news. although i just realised Mull of Kintyre was 1977, my most hated record of all time, parhaps. i am confident this Oz gem from 1977 isn't going to get a run today www.youtube.com...
	9:31am Uncle Michael: Aus!
	9:32am doctorjazz: Ah, the Reverend!
	9:33am joe: So 1974 was cool as it was the year of my birth but 1977 is probably more significant as based on what UM has played this would be the year I start to be much more aware of what was coming out of the radio
	9:34am joe: @dan should your Stones comment end with a . Or ?
	🛒 9:34am Brian in UK: Hello Uncle. ausmanx, got any Little Pattie? Was she still around in 1977?
	9:35am annie: oohhh.. '77. i had just moved to NoVa from ny, to live with my brother on a hilltop near mt weather. no radio, lots of dance tunes and contra dance. by the time i located closer to leesburg, good radio was just starting to kick in, i.e. WHFS.
	9:35am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	9:36am Rich in NC: I was with you Jim Fields
	9:36am Uncle Michael: Rich!
	9:37am Rich in NC: You already Rich'd me UM
	9:37am annie: ok aus, i found bigrigradio. i'll check it out later..
	9:38am doctorjazz: Always loved this Brothers Johnson track!
	9:39am Rich in NC: Waiting on Joe for the Stones comment
	9:39am Dominick: Heigh ho!
	9:40am doctorjazz: (love the instrumental break...)
	9:40am dan: I wonder which one of Electric Light Orchestra's songs will be played today.
	9:40am Uncle Michael: Dominick! Un-Rich!
	9:41am Rich in NC: Good one!!
	9:42am Uncle Michael: Dan, start a pool.
	🛒 9:42am Brian in UK: I keep hearing Ms Jackson by Outkast in this Brothers Johnson.
	9:42am Stanley: Larry!
	9:43am Uncle Michael: Larry really is the star of this show.
	9:43am ausmanx: brian, i reckon pattie was doing tv in 1977, though not so successfully as her other half. pattie was kinds great, though... how are you? managed to keep away from ben stokes, i hope?
	9:44am Tate: getting to listen today
	9:44am Stevel: 1977? Hope I go to heaven!
	9:44am davefromtoronto: a quiet girl who carries herself like miss universe? who doesn't want that?
	9:44am Uncle Michael: Tate! Excellent.
	9:45am Stanley: Larry loves everybody and everything
	9:45am still b/p: Good morning. Computer and volume first up on ....Float On! I say that's a boatload of good boding for the day.
	9:45am ausmanx: this is a very satisfying program, uncle michael... i fear i will have to start reverting to the archive when doug bullies his way back to my midnight timeslot (esp as summer time starts here tomorrow)...
	9:45am Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	9:49am βrian: I made it before 9 o'clock for a change!
	🛒 9:49am Brian in UK: ausmanx what an idiot, whatever the reasons. An athlete does not train in a nightclub at 02:30. The Aussie press will love this, good job he has been suspended. Really weakens the England team. The hype starts here!!
	9:50am ausmanx: i feel your pain, UM, but it's worth it to get rid of the cardinals, surely?
	9:50am dan: Hope your toe feels better.
	9:50am βrian: Toe the line, Uncle Michael!
	🛒 9:51am Brian in UK: You got another nine.
	9:52am ausmanx: brian, i guess oz players have copped a decent amount of that kind of publicity over the years, that video footage was pretty appalling though, if genuine. and in the very unlikely event that england lose the series, they now have a ready made excuse.
	9:52am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	🛒 9:54am Brian in UK: Not seen the video as it came via the Sun newspaper, usually use it in the dunny.
	9:54am Rich in NC: I don't think you can "un " UM, unless you are the president and you un invite athletes to the white house
	9:55am ausmanx: i wonder if there are any other RSO singles coming. it's reasonable to say Robert Stigwood was the most influential Australian of the decade... and i hope you weren't disrespecting Daryl Hall there, Uncle Michael?
	9:56am Uncle Michael: I need change back from two Rich!es then.
	9:56am Uncle Michael: Aus...not as many RSOs as there are Casablancas coming in 1978.
	9:57am Stevel: Everyone seemed to be catching the Hall and Oates Vibe back in this particular day.
	🛒 9:57am Brian in UK: 1977 the year that 'punk' got momentum over here. Despite using an American term. Abandoned Luncheonette is still played in this house on a regular basis.
	9:59am Uncle Michael: Steve!
	10:00am joe: I always wondered if the "go with the guest" was violent or romantic.
	10:00am Alex in Illinois: For some of these songs, this is the first time I've heard them through stereo headphones. Usually it was either through a car radio or a single speaker clock radio.
	10:01am Uncle Michael: I think "violent" but who knows.
	10:02am dan: Cousin Kevin is in the house.
	10:02am still b/p: Much of this playlist will correspond to when I shifted from Boston area to a smaller market in midwest. The radio soundtrack for the period and general musical exposure became veryyyyy narrow. I never fully recovered.
	10:03am Uncle Michael: Aus, how does Stigwood compare with Ted Albert?
	10:04am dan: still b/p: I've said it before and I'll say it again, Commercial radio sucks.
	10:05am Goyim in the AM: Shaun really going for the Raspberries sound here, and almost hitting it.
	10:06am annie: i watched a movie on TCM last night "loosely" based on the emergence of timothy leary... oy vey, i never saw so many clean un-smelly hippies.. the only thing that might have been accurate was that LSD was involved in the plot.
	10:06am Uncle Michael: Eric Carmen wrote this!
	10:06am Alex in Illinois: Yes! I had forgotten about Paul Nicholas play Cousin Kevin in Tommy.
	10:06am Uncle Michael: Alex!
	10:06am Goyim in the AM: Oh, that makes huge sense, UM!
	10:07am dan: Eric Carmen's version has more soul and passion.
	10:07am Goyim in the AM: Wikipedia sez the "go" was of a pugilistic nature.
	10:07am coelacanth∅: hmm -1977...i may not be able to stay for this! oh well, Good Morning Uncle M! (i'll keep it on at least until i'm dressed)
	10:08am PsychopathJimFields: OK, recapping: Completely forgot about The Floaters. Jonesy may have played this at some point but, if he did, I either missed it or immediately tuned it out. What's You're Name was my first favorite Skynyrd tune. I remembered Player in the first couple of notes. I don't know why.
	10:08am Goyim in the AM: I was 8 in 1977, and all I knew of the Raspberries was the bit of Overnight Sensation they had used to play on Wonderama.
	🛒 10:08am Brian in UK: Jackie Bisset and T-shirt, perhaps.
	10:09am davefromtoronto: you mean 2 visuals?
	10:09am PsychopathJimFields: No. That visual is iconic (.)(.)
	10:09am Maggie B.: oh man, the theme from the Deep...that ALWAYS reminds me of the blackout of 1977. I was putting it on the stereo when the lights went out and it slowly ground to a hilarious halt.
	10:10am still b/p: Of course,of course! The visual from The Deep is eye-popping-conic and enduring.
	10:10am joe: @goyim thank you for that clarification
	10:12am Alex in Illinois: Never saw The Deep, but I recall stills from it showing Jacqueline Bisset.
	10:13am annie: that's the rub: coffee has to be piping hot.
	10:13am Lizardner Dave: Which cold brewing system did you get? Our Toddy system (recommended by Cooks Illustrated) just croaked and we're in the market for a new one.
	10:13am Asheville Jon: really enjoying the show today!
	10:14am dan: Look up the genesis for the term 10cc if you don't know.
	10:15am PsychopathJimFields: 10cc is the average volume of a human ejaculate. A public service for those who don't know. You're welcome.
	10:15am Uncle Michael: Coel! Maggie! Dave! Jon!
	10:15am annie: hey asheville jon!!!
	10:16am ausmanx: it's a good question, Uncle Michael. i think Ted Albert was just as astute a talent spotter, but marketing-wise he made mistakes; some think The Easybeats should have been as big as The Beatles and The Stones, but Ted got them wrong - but then AC/DC learnt with Ted from the mistakes made earlier. anyway, Clinton Walker reckons three Oz bands changed the whole of popular music in the 70s, The Bee Gees, The Saints and AC/DC. and none were from Sydney or Melbourne.
	10:16am Asheville Jon: hey annie, how's it going? beautiful day here, huh?
	10:17am dan: Everyone's favorite dildo named band: Steely Dan
	10:17am Uncle Michael: Good hot take, Aus. Thanks.
	10:17am PsychopathJimFields: I love this album. With this going on at the time, it went a long way toward disco sucking.
	10:17am Stanley: Oh yes, 1977 was the year Aja came out.
	10:17am Uncle Michael: Dave, look up County Line Kitchen.
	10:18am annie: oh yeah, my feet willl be taking me out. i finally moved to the vanderbilt, so i'm downtown and close the "action"!!
	10:18am Mr C: Michael the lover before him there was no other..
	10:19am dan: RIP Walter Becker
	10:19am Lizardner Dave: Thanks!
	10:19am coelacanth∅: 10cc; steely dan...where's this going - sexpistols?
	10:19am Uncle Michael: damn...live version by mistake...oh, well....
	10:19am Asheville Jon: good deal Annie. i enjoy being in w ashevile with some land. close enough to any action if i want to be, far enough away to be able to see the wildlife in the back yard
	10:20am Uncle Michael: Mr. C!
	10:20am dan: Alan Parsons Project is one hell of a criminally underrated band
	10:21am coelacanth∅: (i thought maybe you had a band name theme going)
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Just ask Sheila B.!
	10:22am annie: i was stoked to be ableto get to All Go West this year, unencumbered by transporation issues. i'm glad for you jon, i had to move from my woodland house to cement and pavement. always a trade-off , huh? i do miss the critters and birds.
	10:22am PsychopathJimFields: Agree wholeheartedly, Dan.
	10:23am still b/p: If you keep looking, though, I think it's a more complicated and blurry business of contrasting tales for the band name. (And 10cc is a ways off, I believe, from the real average.) Visiting with a couple friends last week, two of us were eagerly talking about 10cc and the less revisited tracks. The woman with us, nearly entirely unfamiliar with the music, listened to two examples, but when I suggested a third, she raised her hands and said 'No," as if even one more would be distinctly uncomfortable. So we didn't get to "Hotel."
	10:24am Uncle Michael: There's never too many cc's!
	10:24am Asheville Jon: yeah, always some trade off. i was out of town for agw. "downtown" w ashevile (universal joint, w asheveile pub, etc) is an easy 1 mile walk from my front door.
	10:26am Little Danny: mornin' UM, all
	10:26am dan: I didn't know Alan Parsons played on Exodus
	10:26am Stanley: Jah People, oh yeah
	10:26am Uncle Michael: cheating...this is not the single edit of Exodus Danny!
	🛒 10:26am Brian in UK: YOU CAN BE PART OF THE 10CC LEG END inews.co.uk...
	10:27am Uncle Michael: leg end?
	10:27am annie: that's nice jon, glad you have the best of both worlds.
	🛒 10:27am Brian in UK: Yes, the Rutles connection.
	10:28am Uncle Michael: bell end
	🛒 10:28am Brian in UK: Enough of the Huge Hefner.
	10:29am still b/p: A leg end can be a foot or a cheek.
	10:29am Asheville Jon: thanks annie. i'm happy to hear you're in a good spot too!
	10:30am coelacanth∅: i'm happy to hear the album version.
	10:31am annie: yes, it's an efficiency, just the right size for me. and i gotta tell ya, i'm so happy to have a kitchen to myself ... no struggling for cabinet/fridge space.. i have so much room i could fit a family of four in my fridge.
	10:31am dan: Aria, written by Mr. Acker Bilk who had a top 10 hit in the UK with his version.
	🛒 10:32am Brian in UK: Just checked and Outkast did sample Shuggie Otis' Strawberry #23.
	10:32am joe: Young man don't run with paste
	10:33am dan: Correction: Acker Bilk did not write Aria.
	🛒 10:33am Brian in UK: Paper, Scissors, paste? Never catch on.
	10:33am Asheville Jon: nice! wanna let a family of three move in? we don't eat much :)
	10:34am annie: sheila's premium cd was the first thing i played fom the swag. haha, well, are your collective ages over 62? then maybe yes..
	10:35am Asheville Jon: in two weeks they will be!
	10:37am still b/p: annie, that's a win win cuz you can make the family in the fridge pay for their (cold) sublet.
	10:39am Uncle Michael: Great scene from Car Wash running through my mind right now.
	10:40am annie: i'd have to keep 'em pretty quiet, though, noise curfew is 10pm. jon, bring the mufflers, then
	10:41am frenchee: one of the top ten slowdance songs EVAH
	10:41am Asheville Jon: heck, the kids are way fast asleep by 8:30, and i am usually not far behind after chasing them around
	10:42am frenchee: Hi UM and all Hinksters
	10:42am Uncle Michael: Frenchee! Right?
	10:43am still b/p: Too bad there's not a secret way to view the remainder of the coming playlist, so I can -- reluctantly, in any case -- pick my moment to pedal to the optometrist. A sweet opportunity in two words, annie: children's....book. The Family In The Fridge
	10:44am annie: oh, good, you'll fit right in; i'm down for the count by 9 myself.. .... ahhh!!! great idea b/p!!!
	10:45am Asheville Jon: yes, i do like the book idea!
	10:46am Uncle Michael: The Girl in the Radiator
	10:47am annie: reminiscent of "The Borrowers"
	10:48am frenchee: I love The Borrowers, @annie
	10:48am Uncle Michael: I was sure I would not be tempted into doing the '80s...but I'm wavering.
	10:49am dan: Brothers Gibb take center stage.
	10:49am Asheville Jon: when do we get some ABBA?
	10:50am annie: yeah, they were great.. i grew up on the edge of Boxcar Children era, read all the bobbsey twins. ... yeah!!!! ABBA!!
	10:50am Uncle Michael: move to the edge of the dance floor
	10:50am doctorjazz: The Dawn of Disco! Brooklyn didn't have it this good until the recent boho renewal.
	10:50am βrian: I was just about to say ... I'll be back later. Open the windows, would you?
	10:51am Uncle Michael: We dawned disco in '74!
	10:51am annie: whoever isn't flourishing with waving hands to this is just not normal.
	10:51am Uncle Michael: No ABBA this week, Jon...but I'll be more than making up for that soon.
	10:51am doctorjazz: Sure, there was stuff out there, but this was the BREAKOUT!
	10:52am dan: Table Five Table Five Table Five
	10:52am Asheville Jon: sounds good UM, most appreciated!
	10:52am still b/p: Song always reminds of the opening credit sequence with Travolta's walk, which signals right away, for better or worse, the movie's production level is kind of... limited.
	10:53am Jeff Golick: Can't believe I missed "Bob Marley & The Wailers alan parsons." But glad to be here.
	10:54am Uncle Michael: Jeff!
	10:57am βrian: Did you do The Hustle?
	10:58am Rich in NC: At least you had girls in your high school
	10:58am Alex in Illinois: I used to dance the Bus Stop
	10:59am still b/p: "Jack and Jill" is a guilty pop pleasure.
	10:59am joe: THre is a great interview with Alice Cooper talking about in the 70's when Staying Alive would come on the radio he would roll up the windows of his car and crank it up.
	11:01am davefromtoronto: this was a real song? i just thought it was the catch phrase of the day back then.
	11:01am melinda: hi all! Missed the disco, damn
	11:02am still b/p: Alice did the "Bite the Chicken" dance.
	11:02am dan: I worked at an insurance company who shall remain nameless. 100% commission, poorly run office. This is a song I would have cranked to the stuffy pretentious bosses.
	11:03am Asheville Jon: MERLE! awesome choice!

	11:06am Uncle Michael: The very best, Rich.
	11:06am Asheville Jon: super live version of runnin kind on the tube of you, anaheim 1980
	11:07am Rich in NC: All the bad boy's now
	11:07am doctorjazz: No girls in my high school. The brilliant people who set up the high schools had the boy school and the girl's school in attached buildings, with a door that connected them, BUT AN ALARM WENT OFF IF THE DOOR WAS OPENED! Ah, the joys of parochial education (opening the door and running was a regular activity...)
	11:07am Asheville Jon: how on earth have i not heard this show before today? Waylon, miss him the most
	11:07am annie: was it live or was it memorex when a deejay played "Take this job" on his show to protest. i'm thinking wkrp.. this was a good time for C&W songs
	11:08am annie: jon, normally UM is on at noon on fridays, doug has a class this semester, so they switched
	11:08am Uncle Michael: Jon, I'm here every week...
	11:08am PsychopathJimFields: This is excellent! The Mets were on WHN then. This is a huge flashback, this whole country segment. Love it!
	11:09am Rich in NC: And now the ladies
	11:09am annie: i used to love baseball on the radio.... 'nem were the days.
	11:09am still b/p: When I made the northeast to midwest move for a while, I missed good new music but did get exposed to things like "I'll Fix Your Flat Tire, Merle," and "Luckenbach" and "Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies...."which I probably wouldn't have in native region.
	🛒 11:10am Brian in UK: Anyone heard Lukas Nelson's new one?
	11:10am Uncle Michael: You're a honky, I know...but Merle, you got soul...
	11:10am PsychopathJimFields: Annie- We're fortunate. The Mets still have a quality radio team.
	11:10am Uncle Michael: Not yet, Brian. Good?
	11:12am Asheville Jon: UM, i used to listen to Marty on friday mornings in this time slot. but now thet there is "something else" i needed to find a better alternative. well, i sure did. diggin the Emmy Lou !
	11:13am Uncle Michael: Well, don't be surprised if the next show you hear here sounds nothing like this one.
	🛒 11:13am Brian in UK: Not got to hear it, Uncle. Good pedigree.
	11:13am Asheville Jon: that's fine with me UM, variety is the spice of life. or was that old spice, i forget
	11:13am annie: oh jon, you have to check out the line-up on the drummer-stream, it loaded!!
	11:14am Asheville Jon: i've been listening to a lot more gtdr stream and ichiban since the new 'main' program schedule changed
	11:15am Rich in NC: Awesome!
	11:16am joe: There's no way, no way that you came from my loins. Soon as I get home, first thing I'm gonna do is punch yo mamma in da mouth!
	11:16am Uncle Michael: Son!
	11:17am Asheville Jon: think i'll watch this movie tonight with the kids
	11:17am Asheville Jon: on VHS!
	11:17am still b/p: Uncle Michael is like the Old Spice guy in the 70s ads, coming ashore to toss more appealing music to people. www.youtube.com...
	11:18am annie: in mono, jon??
	11:19am doctorjazz: Have yet to get to any Ichiban live shows, only so much time...
	11:19am Asheville Jon: possibly, i don't know if my tv is stereo
	11:19am Uncle Michael: R.I.P. Don...heartbreaking song.
	11:19am annie: ok, ok, i admit i loved don williams' music. well, turn one speaker off then.
	11:21am dan: Two more playlists to go. Hope one of them has an ELO song from 1977.
	11:21am melinda: I just discovered there are still a few wasps coming and going from the ground nest I thought I killed last night. Disturbing.
	11:22am annie: bummer melinda..
	11:23am joe: It is from the first Smoky
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: The only charts I'm reading these days have diagnoses and pharmacology reports, etc. Good morning, ol' Uncle Michael!
	11:25am jmd: Hey, Uncle Michael. Is this Cheap Trick playing from the original single?
	11:26am Stevel: melinda: I enjoy killing yellow jackets. Did you use a powdered poison?
	11:27am Uncle Michael: Doug! JMD! (no) Thnks, Joe.
	11:27am annie: GM doug!!
	11:27am Asheville Jon: annie, can you hear my stereo blasting? i know my neighbors can!
	11:27am still b/p: Lynch-lag: Girl in the Radiator is Eraserhead ref, eh?
	11:29am Uncle Michael: uh huh
	11:30am annie: haha.... no... i have to worry about my own sound system. the bass is so strong, i wonder if they feel it on the other side of the wall... they haven't complained yet.. funny, i saw one of the guys who lives there with a lynerd skynerd tee on and i shook hy head... only to remember how old i actually was and he was my age.. oy vey! all thos damn hippies.
	11:30am melinda: @Stevel I sprayed Black Flag right into their point of entry on the ground next to my foundation. As the foam subsided I heard them buzzing around and pictured a colony death within, but something went wrong. Wondering if it wasn't concentrated enough because I forgot to shake the can.
	11:31am Uncle Michael: I spray Dead Kennedys.
	11:31am Rich in NC: She said butt
	11:31am Goyim in the AM: The thing is this (this is the thing): 1977 is the year I discovered college and freeform radio (yes, at 8, it's a long story involving hip and unhip older siblings), so while I know 95% of this stuff and am enjoying this show, this wasn't my soundtrack either.
	11:31am Asheville Jon: love the DKs!
	11:32am joe: Will we be hearing the festive Father Christmas from the Kinks?
	11:32am Doug Schulkind: Policy Statement: Give the Drummer Radio does not endorse nappy-hair shaming.
	11:33am Asheville Jon: i hear ya Annie, for sure. i see 'kids' wearing shirts from bands that i saw when i was a younger person and it's a total time warm. then i feel old
	11:33am Uncle Michael: Joe....Joe...no.
	11:33am melinda: @UM I knew I should have tried something else.
	11:34am annie: i love these songs, with the plaints all spoken out like that
	11:35am ndbob: morning UM, Melinda , Annie et al!
	11:35am still b/p: Dozens of bumblebees flew down at ground level around me in a small section of backyard yesterday. I liked it.
	11:35am melinda: hi bob!
	11:35am Uncle Michael: Bob!
	11:36am melinda: Bumblebees are nice. Yellow jackets are evil.
	11:37am Uncle Michael: Might need couple extreeeee minutes, Doug. Do you dare deny me in a public forum?
	🛒 11:37am Brian in UK: Uncle for some reason I had to hear She's Leaving Home. So a quick flip to an archive and back. 'Tis a good song. What a resource, what a radio station.
	11:37am Uncle Michael: Shake a cow, now?
	11:37am jmd: If not now, when?
	11:38am annie: ndbob!!!!! my dad hit a yellow jackets nest when he was mowing the yard, he rammed the mower into a honeysuckle bush and got a surprise... he was a mess for days!!
	11:39am Goyim in the AM: In 1977, my older brother (the unhip one) ran afoul of a white-faced hornets' nest. Hilarity did not ensue.
	11:40am Uncle Michael: yikes
	11:41am still b/p: The horror of fire-ants rafting/massing up and floating in Houston floods...made me glad that Mama Nature don't allow no fire ant raftin' 'round here.
	11:44am doctorjazz: Thanks UM, fun show!
	11:44am Stanley: Earwig-o!
	11:44am Rich in NC: Such a fun show, thanks!!
	11:45am melinda: @b/p no kidding, fire ants are scary
	11:45am Uncle Michael: THANKS! Don't go!
	11:46am Uncle Michael: Scott Williams would not let me sing this at Hoof n Mouth. True story.
	11:46am Goyim in the AM: He was probably worried he couldn't pull off that bitchin' Richrath solo.
	11:47am still b/p: College friend always called them "REO Dopewagon."
	11:49am annie: '78 next week, UM, or 78s
	11:50am frenchee: haaaa haaa! @stillb/p, so true. OMG the memories are almost too much--almost.
	11:50am Asheville Jon: thanks for the great show today UM. looking forward to more in the future!
	11:50am PsychopathJimFields: I still have my vinyl copy of this album.
	11:50am Uncle Michael: 1978 on 10/27 annie
	11:51am dan: Saving the best for the end. ELO rules. Saw them at Radio City last year. Do Ya was absent from the setlist.
	11:51am doctorjazz: Love this track, the ELO Do Ya (played it for my 18 year old, she made me play it over and over and checked out the ELO catalog-and she generally only likes punk rock, though you could consider this sort of proto pun...)
	11:51am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Jon.
	11:51am GIVE THE DRUMMER RADIO: Do ya do ya want the Drummer? More radio in the form of Give the Drummer Some is up next! You've never heard nothin' like this! PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...
	11:51am joe: Alright who had Do Ya got 17.38 here for you to collect
	11:52am Uncle Michael: Begging an indulgence today, Doug...
	11:54am still b/p: Since you accommodated the big time swap, he HAS to give you bonus minutes. And shovel your driveway. And bring you a sandwich. And say nice things about your teams. Grrrreat show!
	11:54am dan: Guess you're not mulling on Kintyre.
	11:54am Uncle Michael: Good point.
	11:55am Uncle Michael: mulling it under
	11:55am Stanley: Brilliant show today. What a treat. Roll on next week.
	11:56am northguineahills: Thanks UM!
	11:57am Uncle Michael: you're not rid of me!
	11:57am doctorjazz: Bonus time, great! (Doug can run over too, that would be fine all round)
	11:58am Uncle Michael: Doug is so mad at me.
	11:59am Doug Schulkind: Pay back's a bitch, Uncle Michael.
	11:59am PsychopathJimFields: This has been fun. Time to roll. Things to do. Until next time!!!
	11:59am Goyim in the AM: Unhip brother worked out the Crazy on You intro in a week, which was a surprisingly peaceful week at our house because he wasn't blasting his Strat through his Peavey Bassman-copy.
	11:59am Uncle Michael: I mean...I still have one more.
	11:59am frenchee: CRAAAAAAAAZZZZEEEEEEE on you, thanks Doug. This was blasting from every dorm window at IU-Bloomington .... back in the day
	12:00pm 23 Wolves: Swell show as always, Unc! You keep the good times a-flowin'!
	12:01pm Uncle Michael: 23W! Thanks!
	12:01pm ndbob: excellent show UM!
	12:01pm still b/p: Crazy On You is so fun. Nancy Wilson says she's touring on the cheap with current band. All the millions gone?
	12:02pm frenchee: I can hear the drums as never before thru workplace headphones. Suddenly this song has depth!!!!
	12:03pm dan: When I think it's over, you just crank more of them tunes out.
	12:03pm Uncle Michael: this is the end
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: He does seem to do that, doesn't he dan.
	12:04pm doctorjazz: :)
	12:05pm Tate: good show...thanks for the tuneage
	12:05pm dan: Albatross is my least favorite song of your show, because it's the end.
	12:07pm Uncle Michael: THANK YOU ALL!
	🛒 12:13pm Brian in UK: Nice one, Uncle.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from September 29, 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!
	7:34am Uncle Michael: Good morning, truckers.
	7:49am annie: yay!!!
	7:51am Uncle Michael: Good morning, Annie. Welcome to the Road Gang.
	7:51am annie: to be sure i'm on the right page, what tune should i be hearing now? the pop-up says it's lucho bermudez... GM UM!!
	7:52am Uncle Michael: You should be hearing trucker radio.
	7:53am annie: what i'm actaully hearing is some truckin' stuff...ok, yeah.. i hear it now. just tuned in! thanks.
	8:00am annie: many years ago, as i was tootlin' around town in upstate NY, my radio tuner switched to an omaha station and stayed there for about half an hour. it was so surreal. the explanation for that was atmospheric confusion due to hurricanes passing around the country..
	8:03am doctorjazz: Hey all, what time do the festivities actually start?
	8:04am Uncle Michael: Today, I began the audio treat at 7:26 AM, ET.
	8:05am doctorjazz: Wow, that's really early out in your neck of the woods, UM!
	8:05am annie: hey doc! this is the inner sanctum of radio...the pre-show show
	8:07am Uncle Michael: I'm up at 6:00, normally.
	8:09am doctorjazz: OK, generally get to work at about 8, have to go straight to the stream; this is really cool, old timey stuff now...
	8:13am doctorjazz: (been going to Wake and Bake, which is fun too...1st world problems!)
	8:14am Uncle Michael: I first heard Dave Nemo on October 22, 1988...driving from Dallas to Houston at night...between two Grateful Dead concerts.
	8:14am annie: i don't do wakenbake..i've opted for wwoz. UM, are they still broadcasting this show?
	8:16am doctorjazz: Haven't listened to WWOZ, any particular shows/times you like, @Annie?
	8:17am doctorjazz: (loving this show, btw, this show was from 89, a year after that Dead marathon UM?
	8:18am doctorjazz: did my Dead marathoning about a decade earlier...
	8:18am dan: 1977 - The year of Studio 54, Son of Sam, the blackout, leisure suits, Saturday Night Fever, Star Wars and Norman Lear prime time shows
	8:19am annie: i really love the personal touch to this announcer's style. well doc, i mostly listen in the mornings, each deejay has a style, if you like brazilian, then saturdays are good starting around 1:00, going for about 5 hours. the station spends a lot of time highlighting their festivals, so you get lots of live broadcasts especially during festival times.
	8:21am dan: Commercial radio sucks today. It's more business than personality.
	8:21am annie: my fave OZ deejay is Mark landesman on sunday ams starting at 6, going to 9, CDT. he plays nice jazz and some good blues. i sent him some music of a nola jazzman i knew in NY, Al Gallodoro. ... so i'm partial.
	8:22am doctorjazz: Ahh, got to Jazz Fest twice in NO, loved it, now about 15 years ago (was scheduled to go again 4 years ago for my birthday, but my mother passed away right at the time and had to cancel...)
	8:22am Uncle Michael: The Road Gang is on satellite these days, but without Dave.
	8:24am doctorjazz: It's a really nice mix of country/bluegrass/gospel.
	8:24am annie: you'll get back, doc. festival is crazy time. i've thought of going, but not sure i could keep up with the 24-7 jollity..yeah, that makes sense UM, truckers can use the serius radio...
	8:25am annie: sirius..
	8:26am doctorjazz: That's what I need, something to keep the bugs off my windshield...
	8:27am doctorjazz: JazzFest is pretty crazy, but you don't have to get to everything that is going on, pacing is key (especially if it's 95 degrees...). Shows all day, clubs every night, could easily wear yourself out.
	8:28am dan: Where is JazzFest?
	8:28am annie: man, did walter brennan have a great long run.. yeah doc, i wear out just listening to the livewire. it's in new orleans dan
	8:29am Uncle Michael: Dan, it's in New Orleans. I went once in the early '90s.
	8:29am annie: and, to be honest, i just wouldn't have fun in nola, the oppressive heat is not for me, so i get my vicarious thrills via radio
	8:34am doctorjazz: Heat is pretty bad in NO; JazzFest is usually the last week of April and the 1st of May. It's already quite hot, but not as bad as it gets later I'd guess. Of the 2 festivals I got to, the second one had light rain most of the day, which made it MUCH more comfortable (highlights: Stevie Ray Vaughan set, and Neville Brothers with Herbie Hancock sitting in, man...)
	8:34am doctorjazz: (the Gospel tent was fabulous whenever I wandered in, though...)
	8:35am dan: RAY STEVENS
	8:43am annie: yeah, i've heard about the gospel tent.. i'd hang there all day.. a friend who lives in richmond goes every year! has brass passes pre-ordered.. he's addicted.
	8:49am annie: this is a wonderful show, UM, what a treat.
	8:53am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Annie. I'm really glad I have a Nemo aircheck. I haven't located any others.
	8:53am annie: i didn't actually miss buddy guy on tuesday, i heard the show from my apartment next door.. i was told that no sound came out of the building.... they were wrong. i would have sat out front in a lawn chair..
	8:54am dan: The We Didn't Start The Fire of country music
	8:54am doctorjazz: This is great! Nice way to start Friday.
	8:54am doctorjazz: (I'd like to catch Buddy Guy...)
	8:55am annie: he's on tour... might see where he is if you can catch him. i'm sorry i forgot where you live doc..
	8:59am glenn: that's some stellar banjo playing going on right now.
	8:59am doctorjazz: NY/NJ area, I'll Google, thanks Annie.
	8:59am ausmanx: this is all FAR too genteel for trucker radio. you need some AUSTRALIAN trucker radio to really get things started in the morning...
	9:00am annie: oh, geez, a whole new thing to listen to, thanks aus
	9:01am dan: Blossom, Jimmy and the Black Pope to open things as always
	9:02am Rich in NC: Good morning all, Hey Uncle Michael!
	9:02am WebHamster Henry: Oog! Why does everything smell like diesel?
	9:03am davefromtoronto: yo UM! the black pope of WFMU!
	9:03am dan: Nice shout out to Long Island. I live in Queens
	9:04am Uncle Michael: Rich! Henry! Dave!
	9:04am PsychopathJimFields: Good morning, UM!!
	9:05am Uncle Michael: Jim!
	9:06am doctorjazz: The Hits! Nothing but the Hits! On Hit Radio, WFMU!!!!
	9:06am Uncle Michael: The kids love the hits.
	9:08am PsychopathJimFields: Nothing says junior year of high school like Supertramp.
	9:09am Uncle Michael: We must both be class of '78, Jim.
	9:10am Goyim in the AM: ...and nothing says "romantic comedy trailer" like Solsbury Hill. Hi, folks!
	9:11am Uncle Michael: Goyim! What romcom? I missed all of them.
	9:11am joe: 'Ello folks. UM you seem to have the masses energized this morning
	9:12am PsychopathJimFields: I was 1980. Breakfast in America was huge in '77-'78
	9:12am glenn: tom's first big hit?
	9:13am davefromtoronto: "YOU"RE GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!"
	9:13am dan: The old vinyl sound is like a new car smell. Heavenly
	9:13am Goyim in the AM: Here is the true story of why I am no longer allowed to pick the movie, UM: www.rogerebert.com...
	9:13am Uncle Michael: Joe! Glenn! Tom's first chart single...big hit? Not sure it was big....
	9:15am glenn: i seem to recall it being pretty big here.
	9:15am PsychopathJimFields: I think Refugee was his first
	9:15am dan: Graham Parker's version of Hold Back The Night rivals the original. I can't decide which one is better
	9:16am Uncle Michael: Refugee was from the 2nd album.
	9:16am glenn: and then, if memory serves, they were dylan's band for the slow train coming tour.
	9:16am doctorjazz: Hold Back The Night charted? Wasn't actually listening to "hit radio" at this point...
	9:17am Stanley: Hey-up, howya doing Uncle Michael. First half-day Friday I've had in ages. So happy to be able to tune in again.
	9:18am Uncle Michael: "charted" is a low bar Stanley!
	9:18am joe: @glenn I think there is something to be said in how you phrased that. It was still a time when "hits" could be regional. Although this was an all over hit there still could have been those areas where it took over the local supermarket
	9:19am PsychopathJimFields: OK. It's the first one I heard, still trapped in AM radio Hell.
	9:20am dan: Spent many a summer at Rockaway Beach.
	9:21am davefromtoronto: ramones tunes still sound so great.
	9:21am dan: Have the Rolling Stones killed
	9:23am PsychopathJimFields: When this Star Wars was current, we made a family trip to the South Mountain Arena to see Meco, at my brother's request.
	9:26am Uncle Michael: So...you're brother. He's a little weird?
	9:27am PsychopathJimFields: Yeah. Wasn't something I would have done on my own. I didn't even tell my friends.
	9:28am Uncle Michael: Heh.
	9:29am PsychopathJimFields: In those days, I was firmly in the "Disco Sucks" camp.
	9:29am Stanley: Al! Get down.
	9:30am davefromtoronto: i wonder what will be charting in 2077...
	9:31am ausmanx: goodness, did Al really chart with this? good news. although i just realised Mull of Kintyre was 1977, my most hated record of all time, parhaps. i am confident this Oz gem from 1977 isn't going to get a run today www.youtube.com...
	9:31am Uncle Michael: Aus!
	9:32am doctorjazz: Ah, the Reverend!
	9:33am joe: So 1974 was cool as it was the year of my birth but 1977 is probably more significant as based on what UM has played this would be the year I start to be much more aware of what was coming out of the radio
	9:34am joe: @dan should your Stones comment end with a . Or ?
	🛒 9:34am Brian in UK: Hello Uncle. ausmanx, got any Little Pattie? Was she still around in 1977?
	9:35am annie: oohhh.. '77. i had just moved to NoVa from ny, to live with my brother on a hilltop near mt weather. no radio, lots of dance tunes and contra dance. by the time i located closer to leesburg, good radio was just starting to kick in, i.e. WHFS.
	9:35am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	9:36am Rich in NC: I was with you Jim Fields
	9:36am Uncle Michael: Rich!
	9:37am Rich in NC: You already Rich'd me UM
	9:37am annie: ok aus, i found bigrigradio. i'll check it out later..
	9:38am doctorjazz: Always loved this Brothers Johnson track!
	9:39am Rich in NC: Waiting on Joe for the Stones comment
	9:39am Dominick: Heigh ho!
	9:40am doctorjazz: (love the instrumental break...)
	9:40am dan: I wonder which one of Electric Light Orchestra's songs will be played today.
	9:40am Uncle Michael: Dominick! Un-Rich!
	9:41am Rich in NC: Good one!!
	9:42am Uncle Michael: Dan, start a pool.
	🛒 9:42am Brian in UK: I keep hearing Ms Jackson by Outkast in this Brothers Johnson.
	9:42am Stanley: Larry!
	9:43am Uncle Michael: Larry really is the star of this show.
	9:43am ausmanx: brian, i reckon pattie was doing tv in 1977, though not so successfully as her other half. pattie was kinds great, though... how are you? managed to keep away from ben stokes, i hope?
	9:44am Tate: getting to listen today
	9:44am Stevel: 1977? Hope I go to heaven!
	9:44am davefromtoronto: a quiet girl who carries herself like miss universe? who doesn't want that?
	9:44am Uncle Michael: Tate! Excellent.
	9:45am Stanley: Larry loves everybody and everything
	9:45am still b/p: Good morning. Computer and volume first up on ....Float On! I say that's a boatload of good boding for the day.
	9:45am ausmanx: this is a very satisfying program, uncle michael... i fear i will have to start reverting to the archive when doug bullies his way back to my midnight timeslot (esp as summer time starts here tomorrow)...
	9:45am Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	9:49am βrian: I made it before 9 o'clock for a change!
	🛒 9:49am Brian in UK: ausmanx what an idiot, whatever the reasons. An athlete does not train in a nightclub at 02:30. The Aussie press will love this, good job he has been suspended. Really weakens the England team. The hype starts here!!
	9:50am ausmanx: i feel your pain, UM, but it's worth it to get rid of the cardinals, surely?
	9:50am dan: Hope your toe feels better.
	9:50am βrian: Toe the line, Uncle Michael!
	🛒 9:51am Brian in UK: You got another nine.
	9:52am ausmanx: brian, i guess oz players have copped a decent amount of that kind of publicity over the years, that video footage was pretty appalling though, if genuine. and in the very unlikely event that england lose the series, they now have a ready made excuse.
	9:52am Uncle Michael: Brian!
	🛒 9:54am Brian in UK: Not seen the video as it came via the Sun newspaper, usually use it in the dunny.
	9:54am Rich in NC: I don't think you can "un " UM, unless you are the president and you un invite athletes to the white house
	9:55am ausmanx: i wonder if there are any other RSO singles coming. it's reasonable to say Robert Stigwood was the most influential Australian of the decade... and i hope you weren't disrespecting Daryl Hall there, Uncle Michael?
	9:56am Uncle Michael: I need change back from two Rich!es then.
	9:56am Uncle Michael: Aus...not as many RSOs as there are Casablancas coming in 1978.
	9:57am Stevel: Everyone seemed to be catching the Hall and Oates Vibe back in this particular day.
	🛒 9:57am Brian in UK: 1977 the year that 'punk' got momentum over here. Despite using an American term. Abandoned Luncheonette is still played in this house on a regular basis.
	9:59am Uncle Michael: Steve!
	10:00am joe: I always wondered if the "go with the guest" was violent or romantic.
	10:00am Alex in Illinois: For some of these songs, this is the first time I've heard them through stereo headphones. Usually it was either through a car radio or a single speaker clock radio.
	10:01am Uncle Michael: I think "violent" but who knows.
	10:02am dan: Cousin Kevin is in the house.
	10:02am still b/p: Much of this playlist will correspond to when I shifted from Boston area to a smaller market in midwest. The radio soundtrack for the period and general musical exposure became veryyyyy narrow. I never fully recovered.
	10:03am Uncle Michael: Aus, how does Stigwood compare with Ted Albert?
	10:04am dan: still b/p: I've said it before and I'll say it again, Commercial radio sucks.
	10:05am Goyim in the AM: Shaun really going for the Raspberries sound here, and almost hitting it.
	10:06am annie: i watched a movie on TCM last night "loosely" based on the emergence of timothy leary... oy vey, i never saw so many clean un-smelly hippies.. the only thing that might have been accurate was that LSD was involved in the plot.
	10:06am Uncle Michael: Eric Carmen wrote this!
	10:06am Alex in Illinois: Yes! I had forgotten about Paul Nicholas play Cousin Kevin in Tommy.
	10:06am Uncle Michael: Alex!
	10:06am Goyim in the AM: Oh, that makes huge sense, UM!
	10:07am dan: Eric Carmen's version has more soul and passion.
	10:07am Goyim in the AM: Wikipedia sez the "go" was of a pugilistic nature.
	10:07am coelacanth∅: hmm -1977...i may not be able to stay for this! oh well, Good Morning Uncle M! (i'll keep it on at least until i'm dressed)
	10:08am PsychopathJimFields: OK, recapping: Completely forgot about The Floaters. Jonesy may have played this at some point but, if he did, I either missed it or immediately tuned it out. What's You're Name was my first favorite Skynyrd tune. I remembered Player in the first couple of notes. I don't know why.
	10:08am Goyim in the AM: I was 8 in 1977, and all I knew of the Raspberries was the bit of Overnight Sensation they had used to play on Wonderama.
	🛒 10:08am Brian in UK: Jackie Bisset and T-shirt, perhaps.
	10:09am davefromtoronto: you mean 2 visuals?
	10:09am PsychopathJimFields: No. That visual is iconic (.)(.)
	10:09am Maggie B.: oh man, the theme from the Deep...that ALWAYS reminds me of the blackout of 1977. I was putting it on the stereo when the lights went out and it slowly ground to a hilarious halt.
	10:10am still b/p: Of course,of course! The visual from The Deep is eye-popping-conic and enduring.
	10:10am joe: @goyim thank you for that clarification
	10:12am Alex in Illinois: Never saw The Deep, but I recall stills from it showing Jacqueline Bisset.
	10:13am annie: that's the rub: coffee has to be piping hot.
	10:13am Lizardner Dave: Which cold brewing system did you get? Our Toddy system (recommended by Cooks Illustrated) just croaked and we're in the market for a new one.
	10:13am Asheville Jon: really enjoying the show today!
	10:14am dan: Look up the genesis for the term 10cc if you don't know.
	10:15am PsychopathJimFields: 10cc is the average volume of a human ejaculate. A public service for those who don't know. You're welcome.
	10:15am Uncle Michael: Coel! Maggie! Dave! Jon!
	10:15am annie: hey asheville jon!!!
	10:16am ausmanx: it's a good question, Uncle Michael. i think Ted Albert was just as astute a talent spotter, but marketing-wise he made mistakes; some think The Easybeats should have been as big as The Beatles and The Stones, but Ted got them wrong - but then AC/DC learnt with Ted from the mistakes made earlier. anyway, Clinton Walker reckons three Oz bands changed the whole of popular music in the 70s, The Bee Gees, The Saints and AC/DC. and none were from Sydney or Melbourne.
	10:16am Asheville Jon: hey annie, how's it going? beautiful day here, huh?
	10:17am dan: Everyone's favorite dildo named band: Steely Dan
	10:17am Uncle Michael: Good hot take, Aus. Thanks.
	10:17am PsychopathJimFields: I love this album. With this going on at the time, it went a long way toward disco sucking.
	10:17am Stanley: Oh yes, 1977 was the year Aja came out.
	10:17am Uncle Michael: Dave, look up County Line Kitchen.
	10:18am annie: oh yeah, my feet willl be taking me out. i finally moved to the vanderbilt, so i'm downtown and close the "action"!!
	10:18am Mr C: Michael the lover before him there was no other..
	10:19am dan: RIP Walter Becker
	10:19am Lizardner Dave: Thanks!
	10:19am coelacanth∅: 10cc; steely dan...where's this going - sexpistols?
	10:19am Uncle Michael: damn...live version by mistake...oh, well....
	10:19am Asheville Jon: good deal Annie. i enjoy being in w ashevile with some land. close enough to any action if i want to be, far enough away to be able to see the wildlife in the back yard
	10:20am Uncle Michael: Mr. C!
	10:20am dan: Alan Parsons Project is one hell of a criminally underrated band
	10:21am coelacanth∅: (i thought maybe you had a band name theme going)
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Just ask Sheila B.!
	10:22am annie: i was stoked to be ableto get to All Go West this year, unencumbered by transporation issues. i'm glad for you jon, i had to move from my woodland house to cement and pavement. always a trade-off , huh? i do miss the critters and birds.
	10:22am PsychopathJimFields: Agree wholeheartedly, Dan.
	10:23am still b/p: If you keep looking, though, I think it's a more complicated and blurry business of contrasting tales for the band name. (And 10cc is a ways off, I believe, from the real average.) Visiting with a couple friends last week, two of us were eagerly talking about 10cc and the less revisited tracks. The woman with us, nearly entirely unfamiliar with the music, listened to two examples, but when I suggested a third, she raised her hands and said 'No," as if even one more would be distinctly uncomfortable. So we didn't get to "Hotel."
	10:24am Uncle Michael: There's never too many cc's!
	10:24am Asheville Jon: yeah, always some trade off. i was out of town for agw. "downtown" w ashevile (universal joint, w asheveile pub, etc) is an easy 1 mile walk from my front door.
	10:26am Little Danny: mornin' UM, all
	10:26am dan: I didn't know Alan Parsons played on Exodus
	10:26am Stanley: Jah People, oh yeah
	10:26am Uncle Michael: cheating...this is not the single edit of Exodus Danny!
	🛒 10:26am Brian in UK: YOU CAN BE PART OF THE 10CC LEG END inews.co.uk...
	10:27am Uncle Michael: leg end?
	10:27am annie: that's nice jon, glad you have the best of both worlds.
	🛒 10:27am Brian in UK: Yes, the Rutles connection.
	10:28am Uncle Michael: bell end
	🛒 10:28am Brian in UK: Enough of the Huge Hefner.
	10:29am still b/p: A leg end can be a foot or a cheek.
	10:29am Asheville Jon: thanks annie. i'm happy to hear you're in a good spot too!
	10:30am coelacanth∅: i'm happy to hear the album version.
	10:31am annie: yes, it's an efficiency, just the right size for me. and i gotta tell ya, i'm so happy to have a kitchen to myself ... no struggling for cabinet/fridge space.. i have so much room i could fit a family of four in my fridge.
	10:31am dan: Aria, written by Mr. Acker Bilk who had a top 10 hit in the UK with his version.
	🛒 10:32am Brian in UK: Just checked and Outkast did sample Shuggie Otis' Strawberry #23.
	10:32am joe: Young man don't run with paste
	10:33am dan: Correction: Acker Bilk did not write Aria.
	🛒 10:33am Brian in UK: Paper, Scissors, paste? Never catch on.
	10:33am Asheville Jon: nice! wanna let a family of three move in? we don't eat much :)
	10:34am annie: sheila's premium cd was the first thing i played fom the swag. haha, well, are your collective ages over 62? then maybe yes..
	10:35am Asheville Jon: in two weeks they will be!
	10:37am still b/p: annie, that's a win win cuz you can make the family in the fridge pay for their (cold) sublet.
	10:39am Uncle Michael: Great scene from Car Wash running through my mind right now.
	10:40am annie: i'd have to keep 'em pretty quiet, though, noise curfew is 10pm. jon, bring the mufflers, then
	10:41am frenchee: one of the top ten slowdance songs EVAH
	10:41am Asheville Jon: heck, the kids are way fast asleep by 8:30, and i am usually not far behind after chasing them around
	10:42am frenchee: Hi UM and all Hinksters
	10:42am Uncle Michael: Frenchee! Right?
	10:43am still b/p: Too bad there's not a secret way to view the remainder of the coming playlist, so I can -- reluctantly, in any case -- pick my moment to pedal to the optometrist. A sweet opportunity in two words, annie: children's....book. The Family In The Fridge
	10:44am annie: oh, good, you'll fit right in; i'm down for the count by 9 myself.. .... ahhh!!! great idea b/p!!!
	10:45am Asheville Jon: yes, i do like the book idea!
	10:46am Uncle Michael: The Girl in the Radiator
	10:47am annie: reminiscent of "The Borrowers"
	10:48am frenchee: I love The Borrowers, @annie
	10:48am Uncle Michael: I was sure I would not be tempted into doing the '80s...but I'm wavering.
	10:49am dan: Brothers Gibb take center stage.
	10:49am Asheville Jon: when do we get some ABBA?
	10:50am annie: yeah, they were great.. i grew up on the edge of Boxcar Children era, read all the bobbsey twins. ... yeah!!!! ABBA!!
	10:50am Uncle Michael: move to the edge of the dance floor
	10:50am doctorjazz: The Dawn of Disco! Brooklyn didn't have it this good until the recent boho renewal.
	10:50am βrian: I was just about to say ... I'll be back later. Open the windows, would you?
	10:51am Uncle Michael: We dawned disco in '74!
	10:51am annie: whoever isn't flourishing with waving hands to this is just not normal.
	10:51am Uncle Michael: No ABBA this week, Jon...but I'll be more than making up for that soon.
	10:51am doctorjazz: Sure, there was stuff out there, but this was the BREAKOUT!
	10:52am dan: Table Five Table Five Table Five
	10:52am Asheville Jon: sounds good UM, most appreciated!
	10:52am still b/p: Song always reminds of the opening credit sequence with Travolta's walk, which signals right away, for better or worse, the movie's production level is kind of... limited.
	10:53am Jeff Golick: Can't believe I missed "Bob Marley & The Wailers alan parsons." But glad to be here.
	10:54am Uncle Michael: Jeff!
	10:57am βrian: Did you do The Hustle?
	10:58am Rich in NC: At least you had girls in your high school
	10:58am Alex in Illinois: I used to dance the Bus Stop
	10:59am still b/p: "Jack and Jill" is a guilty pop pleasure.
	10:59am joe: THre is a great interview with Alice Cooper talking about in the 70's when Staying Alive would come on the radio he would roll up the windows of his car and crank it up.
	11:01am davefromtoronto: this was a real song? i just thought it was the catch phrase of the day back then.
	11:01am melinda: hi all! Missed the disco, damn
	11:02am still b/p: Alice did the "Bite the Chicken" dance.
	11:02am dan: I worked at an insurance company who shall remain nameless. 100% commission, poorly run office. This is a song I would have cranked to the stuffy pretentious bosses.
	11:03am Asheville Jon: MERLE! awesome choice!
	11:03am northguineahills: Johnny Paycheck into Merle!
	11:03am melinda: I Wanna Get Next to You is one of my favorites
	11:04am Uncle Michael: Melinda! NGH!
	11:04am Uncle Michael: You ain't missed nuthin' Melinda.
	11:05am Rich in NC: What a great voice
	11:06am Uncle Michael: The very best, Rich.
	11:06am Asheville Jon: super live version of runnin kind on the tube of you, anaheim 1980
	11:07am Rich in NC: All the bad boy's now
	11:07am doctorjazz: No girls in my high school. The brilliant people who set up the high schools had the boy school and the girl's school in attached buildings, with a door that connected them, BUT AN ALARM WENT OFF IF THE DOOR WAS OPENED! Ah, the joys of parochial education (opening the door and running was a regular activity...)
	11:07am Asheville Jon: how on earth have i not heard this show before today? Waylon, miss him the most
	11:07am annie: was it live or was it memorex when a deejay played "Take this job" on his show to protest. i'm thinking wkrp.. this was a good time for C&W songs
	11:08am annie: jon, normally UM is on at noon on fridays, doug has a class this semester, so they switched
	11:08am Uncle Michael: Jon, I'm here every week...
	11:08am PsychopathJimFields: This is excellent! The Mets were on WHN then. This is a huge flashback, this whole country segment. Love it!
	11:09am Rich in NC: And now the ladies
	11:09am annie: i used to love baseball on the radio.... 'nem were the days.
	11:09am still b/p: When I made the northeast to midwest move for a while, I missed good new music but did get exposed to things like "I'll Fix Your Flat Tire, Merle," and "Luckenbach" and "Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies...."which I probably wouldn't have in native region.
	🛒 11:10am Brian in UK: Anyone heard Lukas Nelson's new one?
	11:10am Uncle Michael: You're a honky, I know...but Merle, you got soul...
	11:10am PsychopathJimFields: Annie- We're fortunate. The Mets still have a quality radio team.
	11:10am Uncle Michael: Not yet, Brian. Good?
	11:12am Asheville Jon: UM, i used to listen to Marty on friday mornings in this time slot. but now thet there is "something else" i needed to find a better alternative. well, i sure did. diggin the Emmy Lou !
	11:13am Uncle Michael: Well, don't be surprised if the next show you hear here sounds nothing like this one.
	🛒 11:13am Brian in UK: Not got to hear it, Uncle. Good pedigree.
	11:13am Asheville Jon: that's fine with me UM, variety is the spice of life. or was that old spice, i forget
	11:13am annie: oh jon, you have to check out the line-up on the drummer-stream, it loaded!!
	11:14am Asheville Jon: i've been listening to a lot more gtdr stream and ichiban since the new 'main' program schedule changed
	11:15am Rich in NC: Awesome!
	11:16am joe: There's no way, no way that you came from my loins. Soon as I get home, first thing I'm gonna do is punch yo mamma in da mouth!
	11:16am Uncle Michael: Son!
	11:17am Asheville Jon: think i'll watch this movie tonight with the kids
	11:17am Asheville Jon: on VHS!
	11:17am still b/p: Uncle Michael is like the Old Spice guy in the 70s ads, coming ashore to toss more appealing music to people. www.youtube.com...
	11:18am annie: in mono, jon??
	11:19am doctorjazz: Have yet to get to any Ichiban live shows, only so much time...
	11:19am Asheville Jon: possibly, i don't know if my tv is stereo
	11:19am Uncle Michael: R.I.P. Don...heartbreaking song.
	11:19am annie: ok, ok, i admit i loved don williams' music. well, turn one speaker off then.
	11:21am dan: Two more playlists to go. Hope one of them has an ELO song from 1977.
	11:21am melinda: I just discovered there are still a few wasps coming and going from the ground nest I thought I killed last night. Disturbing.
	11:22am annie: bummer melinda..
	11:23am joe: It is from the first Smoky
	11:24am Doug Schulkind: The only charts I'm reading these days have diagnoses and pharmacology reports, etc. Good morning, ol' Uncle Michael!
	11:25am jmd: Hey, Uncle Michael. Is this Cheap Trick playing from the original single?
	11:26am Stevel: melinda: I enjoy killing yellow jackets. Did you use a powdered poison?
	11:27am Uncle Michael: Doug! JMD! (no) Thnks, Joe.
	11:27am annie: GM doug!!
	11:27am Asheville Jon: annie, can you hear my stereo blasting? i know my neighbors can!

	11:30am melinda: @Stevel I sprayed Black Flag right into their point of entry on the ground next to my foundation.

	11:31am Rich in NC: She said butt
	11:31am Goyim in the AM: The thing is this (this is the thing): 1977 is the year I discovered college and freeform radio (yes, at 8, it's a long story involving hip and unhip older siblings), so while I know 95% of this stuff and am enjoying this show, this wasn't my soundtrack either.
