	12:26pm northguineahills: I get everyone's email's on this stream except Doug's, which I have to check on my social media inbox for some reason.
	12:26pm still b/p: Memo was the sixth Marx brother.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: NGH!
	12:29pm dan: Sounds like a mix between Billy Joel and Duncan Browne. First two names to pop up.
	12:31pm Velvet Frog: I was thinking Ray LaMontagne, without the tedious rasp.
	12:31pm gloomsday (michelle): hi uncle michael! happy friday, everyone :)
	12:32pm joe: @doug Hey your Drummer stream is painless,and that is all we want in the grand scheme of things is a painless stream right?
	12:32pm Uncle Michael: Michelle!
	12:32pm doctorjazz: Nice xtc.
	12:32pm V Priceless: XTC! Correctly polarized edition?
	12:33pm doctorjazz: Happy Birthday VP!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I think I grabbed the right one, VP...but I couldn't swear it.
	12:34pm joe: Happy Birthday VP!!!
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Bet you didn't know Mark Lindsay invented rap in 1967.
	12:35pm Roberto: Hunkle Dinkle!
	12:35pm still b/p: Oh, there's some distinct raiding goin' on here.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	🛒 12:36pm Brian in UK: Uncle.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	12:36pm Roberto: Dang you ain't kidding. Some sick beats here from Mark and the Raiders.
	12:37pm V Priceless: thanks, gang! It sure sounded like it, Uncle M! The sonic difference, as you no doubt know, is like night and day! Love that record! Woo!
	12:38pm glenn: my favourite king.
	12:40pm doctorjazz: Wasn't watching the playlist, would never have guessed Paul Revere and the Raiders!
	12:41pm dan: Tony Kaye is returning to Yes in 2018 after a 20+ year hiatus. I might consider getting tickets for that.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: Mark Lindsay must've been hot stuff in 1970, because I remember all the teenage girls who were teaching assistants in my Kindergarten class asking me over and over if I was related to him because of our shared last name. I remember thinking they were serious and wondering who this Mark guy was.
	12:43pm doctorjazz: Great version of this Bernstein classic! Never heard this.
	12:43pm still b/p: I hadn't looked at track title, and when they went this way, I had a little mental bend moment. "They're doing what?"
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: If I ever do volume 2 of last year's premium...
	12:44pm dan: Prog Bernstein
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Velvet Prog
	12:45pm Velvet Frog: that would be Mel Torme done by ELP?
	12:45pm doctorjazz: Love v1 UM. This sounds really nice on headphones (mixed a bit hot, though.)
	12:46pm still b/p: Lindsay very prominent in teen music idol mags in the day. Imagine the keyboards hauled around the NY streets as the gangs stick and jab and dodge and dance.
	12:47pm dan: Saw Mark Lindsay as part of the Happy Together tour a few years ago. Guy has more energy than Jagger and still sounds great.
	12:48pm goyim in the am: Tony Kaye had that garage band realness that more prog bands could have used.
	12:48pm 23 Wolves: BLACK SABBATH INSTROS!!!! Dang, too good.
	12:51pm northguineahills: no doy!
	12:51pm dan: Christmas on the beach sounds so strange to this Yankee. Aussies must scoff at snow on Christmas.
	12:51pm northguineahills: I get Saturday- Monday off.
	12:52pm Jeff Moore: I could swear I just awoke from a fever dream in which I heard Yes performing a selection from West Side Story. I must be under the weather again.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: 23W! Jeff!
	12:54pm joe: I saw Mark Lindsey a couple of years ago backed by the Gripweeds and performing with Susan Cowsill at what I guess you woudl call a pop culture convention called Super Megafest in MA. They played in one of the smaller banquet rooms of the hotel we were all staying at.
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinklers
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	12:55pm dan: Wynder aka Mick Weaver was Steve Winwood's replacement in Traffic briefly. They were billed as Mason, Wood, Capaldi and Frog
	12:59pm coelacanth∅: curious about mark lindsay "rapping". it's hard to imagine.
	1:00pm northguineahills: Sam Rivers!
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: You'll have to hear it.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: Sam Rivers! Saw him back in the loft days.
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Last I heard he was still leading bands in Florida.
	1:02pm northguineahills: Sam Rivers got me out my indie ghetto my freshmen year if college, by the end of the year I was checking out Stockhausen scores at the uni music library. What of hell of gateway he was for me. Thanks Sam! (his Rivbea studio was in Orlando, so he toured FL extensively at the time).
	1:02pm still b/p: Many WFMUers are familiar with Citizen Freak by 49th Parallel, from late 60s -- another very interestingly rap-zonish track.
	1:03pm northguineahills: (he passed almost 6 years ago :(
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Citizen Freak seems like that sorta Dylan/Zappa rap, yes?
	1:04pm doctorjazz: Oh, sorry, missed that one, sad. Love this track, though.
	1:05pm still b/p: Yes, yes...and reminds also of bits that came later -- Stones' Shattered and Blondie Rapture.
	1:07pm doctorjazz: Nicely recorded as well ok as I am wont to note) .
	1:08pm Jeff Golick: Scott McDowell (Long Rally) did a Sam Rivers tribute show back in the day: wfmu.org...
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: (And so did another show on GTDR: wfmu.org...)
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Used to go to the lofts lower NYC late 70s, Studio Rivbea was a frequent visit.
	1:11pm doctorjazz: Getting forgetful in my old age.. Where am I again?
	1:13pm northguineahills: His studio/loft was named RivBea b/c his wife's name was Bea (who was usually at most of his gigs)
	1:14pm northguineahills: Thanks for doing the good work Jeff!
	1:16pm joe: We do Christmas Eve Dinner. Christmas morning breakfest gift opening etc. Go to the movies and then come home for dinner again. I guess there is a lot of food involved.
	1:16pm 23 Wolves: Giuda!!! Hooray, man, they put on a SUPER show!
	1:17pm coelacanth∅: i'm ready. Praise Santa it's not xmas rock.
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: I might go see that Star Wars thing on Tuesday.
	1:19pm joe: THat will be this years undertaking. It's usally something "epic" in nature. I don't remember what it was last year the year before it was the 70mm version of Hateful Eight
	1:21pm still b/p: The Star picture could be fun...but at this point the universe of the story route and people has expanded beyond my instruments entirely.
	1:22pm northguineahills: Sloan!
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: The doubled bass part on this kills me. Stanky with funk.
	1:33pm northguineahills: Thanks UM! off to Bryce, Friday afternoons make for hard choices on WFMU (oh, the horror, so many amazing deejays!). Enjoy your holidays! abrazos hermano!)
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Later, man!
	1:37pm coelacanth∅: friday noon-3 is usually not so hard for me, though i love both shows, because they're so different - i just need to be able to determine what i want. today i'm much more torn than usual in fact.
	1:38pm coelacanth∅: right now i'm listening to both!
	1:40pm coelacanth∅: (okay now i'm not.)
	1:45pm still b/p: Thurl's voice doppelganger!
	1:47pm davefromtoronto: african jive! one of my faves
	1:48pm paul b: Tangentially from nowhere: My nephew comes home from college I ask him what folks are listening these days. He plays plays me a band called Knocked Loose. I leap up from my chair crying "Sweet Jesus-Moses its the apocalypse and the devil is upon us" Then I think wait I used to listen to Tesco Vee, the Misfits, Negative Approach, Flipper, Minor Threat, SS Decontrol, Big Boys and Big Black. What am I going on about. Kids these days
	1:49pm dan: @paul b I'm glad I wasn't brainwashed with today's music. I appreciate the older more musically sound pieces of yesteryear.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Paul!
	2:02pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	2:08pm dan: Sounds like Rainy Day Women 12 and 35
	2:08pm doctorjazz: Cool set UM!
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Doc. Maybe Bob heard Lightnin'.
	2:13pm ndbob: nice one here
	2:23pm still b/p: Get Off Of My Roof....That was released as a 7" shingle?
	2:23pm ndbob: great two sider here UM - flip even better
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: www.45cat.com...
	2:30pm joe: I feel llke I just heard the Get off Of My Roof recently.
	2:31pm dan: Rock and Roll flute. True ear candy
	2:32pm coelacanth∅: this is pretty good, but i think the singer couldn't decide whether to sound more like plant or like osbourne. (the 'tull influence is obvious)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: I think he sounds disturbingly like Chris Cornell.
	2:33pm joe: That would explain it Dave The Spazz played it last night. Or am I injecting things that have already been spoken about and I'm just real late to the game.
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Nope, you're the first!
	2:33pm joe: @UM I can hear the Cornell comparison
	2:34pm dan: This has a dash of Colosseum and Seatrain type music.
	2:34pm still b/p: Like klezmer prog for a while there.
	2:35pm coelacanth∅: oh i guess cornell too, before cornell was born. (?)
	2:35pm joe: @UM if you have never seen DH & Rocksteady 7 and they come your way defiantly worth the night out.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: no i guess not, but before chris cornell sang like chris cornell.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the tip, Joe. Cornell was born in '64.
	2:39pm coelacanth∅: right. so probably the jackdaw &/or audience singer wasn't influenced by him. ...maybe the other way round though.
	2:40pm ndbob: excellent show UM - happy holidays everyone!
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Probably coincidental. Audience does have at least one other great track...very different.
	2:43pm coelacanth∅: well i never heard of them, but maybe Cornell was digging deeper. - i'd like to hear that other one, at some point.
	2:43pm V Priceless: great tunes, Uncle M - in case I'm too nuts in 18 minutes to remember to check in. Cheers all - stay safe and have fun!
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: Yay Ken!
	2:45pm dan: What is this NPR Beatnik hour?
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Thanks UM! Happy Holidays all!
	2:51pm dan: The only band named after a T.S. Elliot cat.
	2:53pm joe: @dan wasn't familier either here is what I found www.npr.org...
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I wish Mungo Jerry could play at my wake.
	2:56pm dan: This song just screams San Francisco hippies
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM!
	2:58pm joe: Great show UM
	2:59pm still b/p: Keep Krampus out of Kansas and have a good holiday. Thanks for a radio show of goodwill.
	2:59pm gloomsday (michelle): thanks a bunch, UM! :)
	3:01pm burke: Hi! Bye!
	3:02pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Uncle M have a Happy Something! take care y'all
	3:02pm Uncle Michael: BYE!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 22, 2017

View Uncle Michael's profile

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

	12:10pm still b/p: HB VP, MHR! The old Steely always got the nostalgia cuing flavor. And too bad, now the Steely knives are out between the living and departed interests.

	12:22pm Uncle Michael: Joe!

	12:22pm V Priceless: thank ya Uncle M and fellow listeners! Cheers! : )
	12:23pm Doug Schulkind: Me and my Drummer Stream.
	12:23pm glenn: ldb is kinda why i embrace the war on xmas.
	12:23pm Webhamster Henry: Me and My Rhythm Box should be a holiday song.
	12:26pm northguineahills: I get everyone's email's on this stream except Doug's, which I have to check on my social media inbox for some reason.
	12:26pm still b/p: Memo was the sixth Marx brother.
	12:29pm Uncle Michael: NGH!
	12:29pm dan: Sounds like a mix between Billy Joel and Duncan Browne. First two names to pop up.
	12:31pm Velvet Frog: I was thinking Ray LaMontagne, without the tedious rasp.
	12:31pm gloomsday (michelle): hi uncle michael! happy friday, everyone :)
	12:32pm joe: @doug Hey your Drummer stream is painless,and that is all we want in the grand scheme of things is a painless stream right?
	12:32pm Uncle Michael: Michelle!
	12:32pm doctorjazz: Nice xtc.
	12:32pm V Priceless: XTC! Correctly polarized edition?
	12:33pm doctorjazz: Happy Birthday VP!
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I think I grabbed the right one, VP...but I couldn't swear it.
	12:34pm joe: Happy Birthday VP!!!
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Bet you didn't know Mark Lindsay invented rap in 1967.
	12:35pm Roberto: Hunkle Dinkle!
	12:35pm still b/p: Oh, there's some distinct raiding goin' on here.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Roberto!
	🛒 12:36pm Brian in UK: Uncle.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	12:36pm Roberto: Dang you ain't kidding. Some sick beats here from Mark and the Raiders.
	12:37pm V Priceless: thanks, gang! It sure sounded like it, Uncle M! The sonic difference, as you no doubt know, is like night and day! Love that record! Woo!
	12:38pm glenn: my favourite king.
	12:40pm doctorjazz: Wasn't watching the playlist, would never have guessed Paul Revere and the Raiders!
	12:41pm dan: Tony Kaye is returning to Yes in 2018 after a 20+ year hiatus. I might consider getting tickets for that.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: Mark Lindsay must've been hot stuff in 1970, because I remember all the teenage girls who were teaching assistants in my Kindergarten class asking me over and over if I was related to him because of our shared last name. I remember thinking they were serious and wondering who this Mark guy was.
	12:43pm doctorjazz: Great version of this Bernstein classic! Never heard this.
	12:43pm still b/p: I hadn't looked at track title, and when they went this way, I had a little mental bend moment. "They're doing what?"
	12:43pm Uncle Michael: If I ever do volume 2 of last year's premium...
	12:44pm dan: Prog Bernstein
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: Velvet Prog
	12:45pm Velvet Frog: that would be Mel Torme done by ELP?
	12:45pm doctorjazz: Love v1 UM. This sounds really nice on headphones (mixed a bit hot, though.)
	12:46pm still b/p: Lindsay very prominent in teen music idol mags in the day. Imagine the keyboards hauled around the NY streets as the gangs stick and jab and dodge and dance.
	12:47pm dan: Saw Mark Lindsay as part of the Happy Together tour a few years ago. Guy has more energy than Jagger and still sounds great.
	12:48pm goyim in the am: Tony Kaye had that garage band realness that more prog bands could have used.
	12:48pm 23 Wolves: BLACK SABBATH INSTROS!!!! Dang, too good.
	12:51pm northguineahills: no doy!
	12:51pm dan: Christmas on the beach sounds so strange to this Yankee. Aussies must scoff at snow on Christmas.
	12:51pm northguineahills: I get Saturday- Monday off.
	12:52pm Jeff Moore: I could swear I just awoke from a fever dream in which I heard Yes performing a selection from West Side Story. I must be under the weather again.
	12:53pm Uncle Michael: 23W! Jeff!
	12:54pm joe: I saw Mark Lindsey a couple of years ago backed by the Gripweeds and performing with Susan Cowsill at what I guess you woudl call a pop culture convention called Super Megafest in MA. They played in one of the smaller banquet rooms of the hotel we were all staying at.
	12:55pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M and Dinklers
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	12:55pm dan: Wynder aka Mick Weaver was Steve Winwood's replacement in Traffic briefly. They were billed as Mason, Wood, Capaldi and Frog
	12:59pm coelacanth∅: curious about mark lindsay "rapping". it's hard to imagine.
	1:00pm northguineahills: Sam Rivers!
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: You'll have to hear it.
	1:00pm doctorjazz: Sam Rivers! Saw him back in the loft days.
	1:02pm doctorjazz: Last I heard he was still leading bands in Florida.
	1:02pm northguineahills: Sam Rivers got me out my indie ghetto my freshmen year if college, by the end of the year I was checking out Stockhausen scores at the uni music library. What of hell of gateway he was for me. Thanks Sam! (his Rivbea studio was in Orlando, so he toured FL extensively at the time).
	1:02pm still b/p: Many WFMUers are familiar with Citizen Freak by 49th Parallel, from late 60s -- another very interestingly rap-zonish track.
	1:03pm northguineahills: (he passed almost 6 years ago :(
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Citizen Freak seems like that sorta Dylan/Zappa rap, yes?
	1:04pm doctorjazz: Oh, sorry, missed that one, sad. Love this track, though.
	1:05pm still b/p: Yes, yes...and reminds also of bits that came later -- Stones' Shattered and Blondie Rapture.
	1:07pm doctorjazz: Nicely recorded as well ok as I am wont to note) .
	1:08pm Jeff Golick: Scott McDowell (Long Rally) did a Sam Rivers tribute show back in the day: wfmu.org...
	1:09pm Jeff Golick: (And so did another show on GTDR: wfmu.org...)
	1:09pm doctorjazz: Used to go to the lofts lower NYC late 70s, Studio Rivbea was a frequent visit.
	1:11pm doctorjazz: Getting forgetful in my old age.. Where am I again?
	1:13pm northguineahills: His studio/loft was named RivBea b/c his wife's name was Bea (who was usually at most of his gigs)
	1:14pm northguineahills: Thanks for doing the good work Jeff!
	1:16pm joe: We do Christmas Eve Dinner. Christmas morning breakfest gift opening etc. Go to the movies and then come home for dinner again. I guess there is a lot of food involved.
	1:16pm 23 Wolves: Giuda!!! Hooray, man, they put on a SUPER show!
	1:17pm coelacanth∅: i'm ready. Praise Santa it's not xmas rock.
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: I might go see that Star Wars thing on Tuesday.
	1:19pm joe: THat will be this years undertaking. It's usally something "epic" in nature. I don't remember what it was last year the year before it was the 70mm version of Hateful Eight
	1:21pm still b/p: The Star picture could be fun...but at this point the universe of the story route and people has expanded beyond my instruments entirely.
	1:22pm northguineahills: Sloan!
	1:30pm Uncle Michael: The doubled bass part on this kills me. Stanky with funk.
	1:33pm northguineahills: Thanks UM! off to Bryce, Friday afternoons make for hard choices on WFMU (oh, the horror, so many amazing deejays!). Enjoy your holidays! abrazos hermano!)
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Later, man!
	1:37pm coelacanth∅: friday noon-3 is usually not so hard for me, though i love both shows, because they're so different - i just need to be able to determine what i want. today i'm much more torn than usual in fact.
	1:38pm coelacanth∅: right now i'm listening to both!
	1:40pm coelacanth∅: (okay now i'm not.)
	1:45pm still b/p: Thurl's voice doppelganger!
	1:47pm davefromtoronto: african jive! one of my faves
	1:48pm paul b: Tangentially from nowhere: My nephew comes home from college I ask him what folks are listening these days. He plays plays me a band called Knocked Loose. I leap up from my chair crying "Sweet Jesus-Moses its the apocalypse and the devil is upon us" Then I think wait I used to listen to Tesco Vee, the Misfits, Negative Approach, Flipper, Minor Threat, SS Decontrol, Big Boys and Big Black. What am I going on about. Kids these days
	1:49pm dan: @paul b I'm glad I wasn't brainwashed with today's music. I appreciate the older more musically sound pieces of yesteryear.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Paul!
	2:02pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	2:08pm dan: Sounds like Rainy Day Women 12 and 35
	2:08pm doctorjazz: Cool set UM!
	2:10pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Doc. Maybe Bob heard Lightnin'.
	2:13pm ndbob: nice one here
	2:23pm still b/p: Get Off Of My Roof....That was released as a 7" shingle?
	2:23pm ndbob: great two sider here UM - flip even better
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: www.45cat.com...
	2:30pm joe: I feel llke I just heard the Get off Of My Roof recently.
	2:31pm dan: Rock and Roll flute. True ear candy
	2:32pm coelacanth∅: this is pretty good, but i think the singer couldn't decide whether to sound more like plant or like osbourne. (the 'tull influence is obvious)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: I think he sounds disturbingly like Chris Cornell.
	2:33pm joe: That would explain it Dave The Spazz played it last night. Or am I injecting things that have already been spoken about and I'm just real late to the game.
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: Nope, you're the first!
	2:33pm joe: @UM I can hear the Cornell comparison
	2:34pm dan: This has a dash of Colosseum and Seatrain type music.
	2:34pm still b/p: Like klezmer prog for a while there.
	2:35pm coelacanth∅: oh i guess cornell too, before cornell was born. (?)
	2:35pm joe: @UM if you have never seen DH & Rocksteady 7 and they come your way defiantly worth the night out.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: no i guess not, but before chris cornell sang like chris cornell.
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the tip, Joe. Cornell was born in '64.
	2:39pm coelacanth∅: right. so probably the jackdaw &/or audience singer wasn't influenced by him. ...maybe the other way round though.
	2:40pm ndbob: excellent show UM - happy holidays everyone!
	2:40pm Uncle Michael: Probably coincidental. Audience does have at least one other great track...very different.
	2:43pm coelacanth∅: well i never heard of them, but maybe Cornell was digging deeper. - i'd like to hear that other one, at some point.
	2:43pm V Priceless: great tunes, Uncle M - in case I'm too nuts in 18 minutes to remember to check in. Cheers all - stay safe and have fun!
	2:44pm coelacanth∅: Yay Ken!
	2:45pm dan: What is this NPR Beatnik hour?
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone!
	2:46pm doctorjazz: Thanks UM! Happy Holidays all!
	2:51pm dan: The only band named after a T.S. Elliot cat.
	2:53pm joe: @dan wasn't familier either here is what I found www.npr.org...
	2:53pm Uncle Michael: I wish Mungo Jerry could play at my wake.
	2:56pm dan: This song just screams San Francisco hippies
	2:57pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @UM!
	2:58pm joe: Great show UM
	2:59pm still b/p: Keep Krampus out of Kansas and have a good holiday. Thanks for a radio show of goodwill.
	2:59pm gloomsday (michelle): thanks a bunch, UM! :)
	3:01pm burke: Hi! Bye!
	3:02pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Uncle M have a Happy Something! take care y'all
