	12:03pm βrian: Is there a version for Flint?
	12:04pm Sem: Hello, UM, H-D devotees. I feel for the jingle company writers, oh boy, local boosterism lyrics on demand.

	12:04pm queems: helloooo
	12:04pm Lewis: the gif makes me think that PigPen is just of the frame to the right...
	12:05pm Roberto: I had an aunt who lived in Winston-Salem for a few years in the '70s. I enjoyed my one visit.
	12:05pm βrian: "You can take Salem out of the country, but ..."
	12:05pm still b/p: What kind of metrics will tell us about favorable reception and motivation of tourism and business interest among listeners tp the Winston Salem musical catalogue of desirability?
	12:05pm Jeff Golick: How do?
	12:06pm βrian: You've arrive just in the nicotine.

	12:10pm βrian: I'll take the smoked whitefish on rye with marinated onions, please. And a side of German potato salad.

	12:12pm Doug Schulkind: I am enjoying this radio show very much.
	12:12pm still b/p: Somewhere...Cecile's hands are up, though she may not know why.
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Dominick, wanna spill the beans on the gif?
	12:13pm davefromtoronto: put the hink to the dink and let's do this!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Dave!
	12:15pm Parq: Smiling here. I'm taking an improv class, and last night's class featured an exercise in which two-person bits were required to start with the initiating participant beginning a sentence with "You make me feel ..."
	12:15pm northguineahills: I could go for some Detroit/Chicago proto-House
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: NGH! You'll have to imagine it!
	12:17pm Dominick: The Dot and the Line from Chuck Jones' adaptation www.youtube.com...
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Bingo.
	12:18pm Dean: I remember that film! Anybody remember Frank Film from '73?
	12:20pm still b/p: You Make Me Feel is a great number, but I picked up a Sylvester "Collector's Edition" 12" 45rpm Don't Stop/Hard Up, and anyone who wants it can come to my door right now.
	12:22pm Roberto: Let's Go Crazy was played so often on my freshman hall that I couldn't possibly appreciate its genius at the time. I retroactively apologize for my skewed perspective.
	12:24pm frenchee: AAAAAAAAGH!!! I came in just in time for PRINCE and I thought the toggle-gif was a Jules Feiffer thang.
	12:26pm Parq: I still remember how, when I first saw "Purple" in a theater, some guy responded to that shrieking guitar break just before the finish of "Let's Go' by shouting out "Jimi!"
	12:27pm still b/p: Even though to talk-over music, easily an 'A' segue.
	12:28pm Parq: I see what you did there.
	12:29pm Dean: Next up, "You Can Leave Your Hat On."
	12:29pm still b/p: Punx (-sutawny) rock.
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: this was the prequel to "let it all hang out"
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Frenchee!
	12:31pm queems: this song is like negging x100000
	12:32pm Parq: Frenchee, turns out it's Chuck Jones. The wonder of it all.
	12:33pm Stanley: I'm in from a grisly day at the office, I'm cooking, washing up, cleaning and some one has stuck a broom up my arse so I can sweep at the same time. I am listening, though. Hi UM and all.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I had the book before I saw Chuck Jones' adaptation...both as a child.
	12:34pm βrian: How much wood can a groundhog chuck?
	12:34pm Funky16corners: Jet Weston! I know that guy!
	12:35pm Rich in Washington: Ouch, Stanley! Be careful walking through doors!
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! You know him, Larry?
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:36pm Alex in Illinois: A hunting cooking song just it time for lunch!
	12:36pm Funky16corners: Yeah, for many years. From one town over, was an original member of the Gripweeds under his real name.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Alex! Very cool, Larry!
	12:40pm Dean: Groundhog's the seasonal bellwether. Ground hog's what you make meatballs out of.
	🛒 12:40pm Brian in UK: John Allen just played the Groundhogs. He won 3-0.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Field goal in OT?
	12:41pm βrian: Woodchucks and Whistle-Pigs aren't getting any love.
	12:42pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:43pm still b/p: I see many groundhogs in recent decades...backyard, roadsides, parks. Don't remember seeing them growing up. Population explosion? Paging a naturalist...northeast-familiar naturalist, please...
	12:44pm joe: Anybody know if the Chuck Jones Experience is still a thing in Las Vegas?
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: Chuck Taylors hate my feet and vice versa. The older I get, the less forgiving my feet are.
	12:44pm βrian: I was a PF Flyer man, myself.
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: I forgot about Keds.
	12:45pm joe: You will either love the Chuck experience or you will lose your pinkie toe.
	12:45pm queems: my pinky toes have burst through every pair of chuck taylors i have ever owned
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: Joe, queems, that's it, isn't it? They just aren't fit for people with wide-ish feet. That's been my experience.
	12:47pm Dean: I'm wearing cheap-ass Big 5 shoes that last forever and feel just fine.
	12:47pm Funky16corners: Vans 24/7/365
	12:47pm davefromtoronto: i'm not but i got a pair a few "feet" away from me at the door
	12:47pm still b/p: Several years ago I tipped stepping down into my basement carrying just-drained motor oil which spilled all over my blackish-greenish high-tops. I mourn them still. And they live somewhere in the dark here still.
	12:47pm βrian: I never tire of my Goodyear huaraches.
	12:48pm joe: @Rich I wore them exclusivly for years but as I got older and gained weight and my feet got wider I had to forgo doing such.
	12:48pm still b/p: "tripped"
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: Right now wearing real live Corcoran jump boots and my feet love 'em. First pair of leather lace-up boots that didn't kill my big fat ankles.
	12:49pm Jeff Golick: Sing it, Bob.
	12:49pm queems: @rich same with keds, which i still do wear. but you can get keds in wide and extra wide. neither of which are actually that wide
	12:49pm Rich in Washington: Chuck's are also way way too flat for my stupid high-arched foot.
	12:50pm Rich in Washington: I discovered the joys of wider-than-normal shoes that actually fit via New Balance, back when they were made in the USA and at high quality.
	12:50pm Listener Robert: I had not been aware of Keeshan's other-than-kangarooish work.
	12:51pm Rich in Washington: Half the fun of having feet is Red Goose Shoes.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Robert!
	12:52pm northguineahills: oh, it was that Keeshan. I need to look up that record.
	12:53pm Parq: I used to love bright red Converse low-tops, but my feet haven't been able to take them in a long time. I have a pair of modern running shoes, but I just don't like them as much. They're too big; they feel like clown shoes.
	12:54pm still b/p: Keeshan also was one of the actors who played non-speaking Clarabell the Clown on Howdy Doody show.
	12:54pm queems: @parq agreed about most running shoes/sneakers. i feel like my feet are just massive boats
	12:55pm mauri: musical snuffbox.
	12:56pm northguineahills: I have canvass vans, and some swedish vans knockoff, but I only wear them in the non-winter. Oh god, I had this music box toy as a kid...
	12:56pm Dean: Well, now, here's a compelling article title, dated today, in Paris Review: James Joyce’s Love Letters to His “Dirty Little Fuckbird”
	12:57pm Rich in Washington: Wow! What the hell is this?
	12:57pm Alex in Illinois: Big transparent clock by Fischer-Price?
	12:57pm Funky16corners: So Beaker from the Muppet Show did an album?
	12:57pm queems: i feel like i just got fabio’d
	12:57pm northguineahills: @Alex: Si! Greetje Bijma, new to me and digdug!
	12:57pm joe: Chuck Conners. Thought I woudl just add another Chuck in there.
	12:58pm βrian: Any relation to the Canary called Onan?
	1:00pm Rich in Washington: I used to have a pair of Chuck Conners. Used to wear them all the time. On second thought, they might've just been cowboy boots...
	1:02pm joe: And before I take my leave you for a prior engament. Don't forget another name for a groundhog yup you gussed it a woodchuck.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Mauri!
	1:04pm still b/p: Up 'til Pee Wee, would that be one of the trippiest sets ever in the Hinky Dinky oeuvre? As the old song says..."Hinky Dinky gnarly oeuvre."
	1:07pm Dean: Another good GB record, featuring Dresser and Crispell: https://www.discogs.com/Greetje-Bijma-Barefoot/release/3871077
	1:07pm northguineahills: confused???, you will be on the next edition of Hinky Dinky Time!
	1:08pm northguineahills: err... episode.
	1:09pm northguineahills: Taking an early lunch, thanks UM!
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, NGH!
	1:19pm still b/p: I can't imagine that Boston FM album stations...especially WBCN, didn't play Can in the 70s. But I don't recall any of it from then.
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: Oh, pour one out for Dennis Edwards of the The Temptations. RIP.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Damn.
	1:22pm Funky16corners: Sad
	1:22pm mauri: Now I know not to put money on west ham tomorrow.
	1:24pm Funky16corners: That was quite enough, says Bubbles
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Bubbles can bl...
	1:26pm still b/p: Now we fight!
	1:26pm Rich in Washington: I refer to my left buttcheek as my West Ham.
	1:28pm Rich in Washington: Just realized that's the tune used for Monty Python's We Love The Yangtze. How big of a dork am I?
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: Pretty big!
	1:28pm Parq: I was kind of hoping for that Monty Python bit where UK goalies wax poetic about the Yangtze River and it's followed by a football-song-style ode to the Yangtze.
	1:29pm Parq: Rich, as big a one as I am, apparently.
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: HA!
	1:31pm still b/p: Pilgrim Travelers! Now we fight!
	1:34pm gloomsday: hi UM and friends <3 i've been sick all week, so here's hoping some hinky dinky time can do me good :)
	1:34pm Sem: Yep, like the "Blue" in there. Wondrous pipes.
	1:36pm Dean: Hello right back at ya! It's marvelous!
	1:38pm Dean: Oh, for sure, you can bet those AI geniuses are right on it. Next six months or so technology will be right where we need it to deliver today the full power of technology six months from now.
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: gloomsday! I hope we can do you some good, too!
	1:39pm Funky16corners: Switching streaming devices. Back soon
	1:41pm βrian: Why, it's almost Country-like ...
	1:42pm βrian: I know he's singing to his cat.
	1:43pm Dominick: Oh man, my mom would sing this one. I was only 10. Creeps me out.
	1:43pm Sem: ur-vocoder there?
	1:43pm βrian: Autotune in 1960? Who knew?
	1:44pm Dominick: Pedal steel / voice box combo
	1:44pm Dominick: www.youtube.com...
	1:47pm Sem: Dominick: great thing, but pretty creepy, that tube in his mouth.
	1:48pm βrian: David Lynch can't touch that! Bizarre!
	1:51pm still b/p: And check the Peter Drake version of Lonely Street at 1:22:59 on last night's Explorer's Room for more voice & steel talk. (The guy intro-ing a different Drake number in Dominick's video...cool gold lame jacket, but he doesn't wear it well.)
	1:52pm Dominick: @Sem Talk box, later used by Joe Walsh and of course Frampton Tube is attached to a loudspeaker driver. www.youtube.com...
	1:53pm Parq: Buddy Emmons did a talking-pedal-steel version of "My Buddy" that made it onto one of Monica's (uniformly great) marathon premiums.
	1:56pm Parq: Dominick, I was subscribing to "Guitar Player" magazine when the Frampton album was a hit. They had a monthly column on DYI effects boxes, and were deluged with requests for a column on building a voice box. I saw Stevie Wonder using one of those on TV around that time, highlighting his reading of "Papa Was a Rolling Stone".
	1:56pm βrian: UM, are you DJ-ing by rolodex again?
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: That's the McGuffin.
	1:59pm βrian: Isn't that a fast-food breakfast sandwich?
	2:01pm Dominick: Hi Parq, It's a simple device. Link I put up at 1:52 has Stevie on David Frost showing it off performing "Close to You"
	2:02pm still b/p: Among memories permanently attached to the season of BIG Frampton Comes Alive airplay: driving vehicles, with radio on, back and forth between Dave Dinger Ford and a nearby storage location -- including Mustang II fastbacks with 8 cylinders in the hopping li'l thing.
	2:09pm Funky16Corners: Don't forget Alvino Rey!
	2:10pm Lewis: This is pretty cool in its own way...
	2:10pm Parq: Will check it out later, Dominick. Can't access Youtube on my strangely Orwellian work puter.
	2:15pm Dominick: kissing the time indeed
	2:16pm Rich in Washington: whoa. Wasss happening...?
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: strange things
	2:17pm Rich in Washington: sounded like it slipped to the automatic stream for a second. Maybe not?
	2:17pm geezerette: scuse me while I kiss my watch...
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: That was the record, Rich.
	2:19pm geezerette: man, that squiggle can DANCE.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Geezerettte!
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Nice Janis Ian cover, eh?
	2:21pm geezerette: America's favorite Uncle!
	2:21pm annie: just got back from a morning's jaunt to corporate america.. one place stuck out: the local butcher shop with real people...you know that scene in zefferelli's "Romeo and Juliet" where juliet trusts herself into the friar's cell and wails about "Past hope......" well.... murka sucks
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: Annie!
	2:22pm Funky16Corners: I like this Shame cut. New to me.
	2:24pm geezerette: Never heard that Janis Ian song before!
	2:25pm Dean: Some days for me it's PEN-dyoo-lum, but then before you know it I've radically shifted to PEN-duh-lum, and then soon enough I'm back to the original.
	2:27pm Little Danny: Re: Welk hipsterismo, may I point you to this sir? www.discogs.com...
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: You've said the word as many as three times in the same day?
	2:28pm still b/p: A lot of "penjalum" is uttered, too.
	2:28pm βrian: I can almost hear those tiny bubbles.
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: That's terrifying, Danny.
	2:28pm geezerette: Welk con sabor!?
	2:28pm Dean: Yes, with some frequency.
	2:28pm Funky16Corners: Those early Janis Ian albums are fantastic.
	2:29pm geezerette: must find.
	2:29pm annie: UM!!!!
	2:30pm still b/p: Lawrence and Johnny keeping things brief on that album.
	2:30pm still b/p: Now THIS is a day-maker.
	2:31pm geezerette: Danny, that's actually unbelievable!!!
	2:32pm Parq: Literally, "Little Faithful Nightingale", sez Google Translate.
	2:33pm Jeff Golick: That Hodges/Welk thing...I literally rubbed my eyes, wondering if I was seeing that right.
	2:34pm Rich in Washington: what a great instrumental!
	2:34pm Funky16Corners: I wonder how that came together with almost a dozen different arrangers?
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: They kept quitting.
	2:36pm geezerette: Was "Thrill Me" part of the rise...or the fall? (of Paramount Records..)
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: For you, Larry...
	2:38pm melinda: hi all, I'm late. I was at my first exercise class since mandatory school P.E.
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Unk!
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Melinda!
	2:40pm Jeff Golick: Today I learned...Welk was awarded a US design patent for an accordion-themed ashtray. (One of four patents we was granted. Apparently.)
	2:41pm still b/p: I just sent a link for the Dietrich track to a friend spending a few days in Florida, so he can play it audibly while sitting on the beach and have interested women stop, "Mm. What are you listening to?"
	2:43pm Funky16Corners: Almost exactly 8 years ago; funky16corners.com...
	2:43pm Parq: Larry, feel free to give us a link for your blog-post on the Kelly Brothers, if you've got it handy.
	2:45pm still b/p: Just took a quick taste of Welk/Hodges doing Someone To Watch Over Me. Nooo, thenk yew.
	2:45pm Funky16Corners: See above your comment SBP
	2:46pm Funky16Corners: I mean Parq
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: I didn't get into the Fall until well into the Brix era. Still my favorite phase but I've been working my way back and forth through their ouvre ever since, and finding it all rewarding.
	2:47pm Jeff Golick: This is a good one. I actually hated this album (but for this song) when it first came out.
	2:48pm βrian: Hey, it's that talk-singing guy again.
	2:48pm Rich in Washington: One could make a pretty long and impressive show/setlist (etc.) of covers by The Fall.
	2:48pm Jeff Golick: * Infotainment, I think, @UM
	2:49pm Parq: Adapting something I said on Pseu's show, I am just going to sit here a bit and let it sink in that I live in a world where there is a Fall cover of "I'm Going to Spain".
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: typo...thanks
	2:49pm Dean: First heard The Fall upon release of Live at the Witch Trials, "No Xmas for John Quays" being the tune that stuck.
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: ...also, ScaN. See? Terrible album.
	2:50pm listener Rey: Not enough bile in this track, very unlike the Fall
	2:50pm Rich in Washington: I think that's correct, Jeff. Infotainment Scan. I remember buying it out of a cutout bin and not really digging it, but fondly recall this song.
	2:50pm doctorjazz: almost done-time flies when your having fun. Again, too swamped to post, but loved the show, thanks UM fun weekend all!
	2:51pm Alex in Illinois: Did Infotainment Scam have Telephone Thing on it?
	2:51pm melinda: Nice cover.
	2:52pm annie: oh damn, where's the damn i LOVE this clicky-star star??
	2:52pm Rich in Washington: No, but it had Glam Racket, another standout track from an otherwise lackluster late period Fall record.
	2:52pm Parq: I always did think that "I Will Survive" needed a good guitar solo.
	2:53pm doctorjazz: Like this Cake corver a whole lot!
	2:53pm geezerette: snide,yet sincere.
	2:53pm Alex in Illinois: I looked it up. I was thinking of Extricate. I know I have Infotainment Scam in some format, but don't recall my favorite track.
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: 'late period'. My bias is clearly showing. They went on for another two decades.
	2:53pm doctorjazz: (it needed the talk-sing treatment after the Gainer original)
	2:55pm Rich in Washington: I actually just found Extricate at a Salvation Army store just about two weeks before MES' death. It's not too bad. Most of the seminal lineup intact. It's his 'fresh from divorce' from Brix LP, so has an incredibly snotty cover of The Monks I Hate You, for some reason entitled Black Monk Theme.
	2:55pm βrian: It could've done with a little honk line, too.
	2:56pm Jeff Golick: @Rich: I'm with you on that timeline, tho. That Infotainment record was, I think, their first on Matador, and my thinking at the time was that the label just got there way too late. Meanwhile...two more decades.
	2:57pm still b/p: Doctor's office this morning. He plays message on his machine from patient seeking appointment today for tough continuing issue, but caller but says, if not, "I will survive." Doctor references the song. That's a firm footprint, there.
	2:57pm geezerette: Thanx,UM!!!
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. See you all in a week!
	2:58pm Roberto: Bai Unc!
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Grand Finale! I get it!
	2:59pm still b/p: Yes, thenk yew.
	3:00pm Funky16Corners: Great show Unk!
	3:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, UM! See ya later!
	3:01pm Alex in Illinois: Whenever I saw the "Hillary" signs on lawn in my neighborhood, the first thing that came to my mind was "Hilary" by The Fall.
	3:02pm Doug Schulkind: It's Mayuko!
	3:03pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, Unc.!
	6:27pm Stanley: Uncle, thanks for a very enjoyable show, up to your usual high standards. Hardly get to listen live nowadays but thanks be to the archives and in answer to your earlier question - the future is just fine with shows like this. See ya.

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 2, 2018

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.

	12:05pm βrian: "You can take Salem out of the country, but ..."
	12:05pm still b/p: What kind of metrics will tell us about favorable reception and motivation of tourism and business interest among listeners tp the Winston Salem musical catalogue of desirability?
	12:05pm Jeff Golick: How do?
	12:06pm βrian: You've arrive just in the nicotine.

	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Dominick, wanna spill the beans on the gif?
	12:13pm davefromtoronto: put the hink to the dink and let's do this!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: Dave!
	12:15pm Parq: Smiling here. I'm taking an improv class, and last night's class featured an exercise in which two-person bits were required to start with the initiating participant beginning a sentence with "You make me feel ..."
	12:15pm northguineahills: I could go for some Detroit/Chicago proto-House
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: NGH! You'll have to imagine it!
	12:17pm Dominick: The Dot and the Line from Chuck Jones' adaptation www.youtube.com...
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: Bingo.
	12:18pm Dean: I remember that film! Anybody remember Frank Film from '73?
	12:20pm still b/p: You Make Me Feel is a great number, but I picked up a Sylvester "Collector's Edition" 12" 45rpm Don't Stop/Hard Up, and anyone who wants it can come to my door right now.
	12:22pm Roberto: Let's Go Crazy was played so often on my freshman hall that I couldn't possibly appreciate its genius at the time. I retroactively apologize for my skewed perspective.
	12:24pm frenchee: AAAAAAAAGH!!! I came in just in time for PRINCE and I thought the toggle-gif was a Jules Feiffer thang.
	12:26pm Parq: I still remember how, when I first saw "Purple" in a theater, some guy responded to that shrieking guitar break just before the finish of "Let's Go' by shouting out "Jimi!"
	12:27pm still b/p: Even though to talk-over music, easily an 'A' segue.
	12:28pm Parq: I see what you did there.
	12:29pm Dean: Next up, "You Can Leave Your Hat On."
	12:29pm still b/p: Punx (-sutawny) rock.
	12:29pm davefromtoronto: this was the prequel to "let it all hang out"
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Frenchee!
	12:31pm queems: this song is like negging x100000
	12:32pm Parq: Frenchee, turns out it's Chuck Jones. The wonder of it all.
	12:33pm Stanley: I'm in from a grisly day at the office, I'm cooking, washing up, cleaning and some one has stuck a broom up my arse so I can sweep at the same time. I am listening, though. Hi UM and all.
	12:33pm Uncle Michael: I had the book before I saw Chuck Jones' adaptation...both as a child.
	12:34pm βrian: How much wood can a groundhog chuck?
	12:34pm Funky16corners: Jet Weston! I know that guy!
	12:35pm Rich in Washington: Ouch, Stanley! Be careful walking through doors!
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Stanley! You know him, Larry?
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: Rich!
	12:36pm Alex in Illinois: A hunting cooking song just it time for lunch!
	12:36pm Funky16corners: Yeah, for many years. From one town over, was an original member of the Gripweeds under his real name.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Alex! Very cool, Larry!
	12:40pm Dean: Groundhog's the seasonal bellwether. Ground hog's what you make meatballs out of.
	🛒 12:40pm Brian in UK: John Allen just played the Groundhogs. He won 3-0.
	12:41pm Uncle Michael: Field goal in OT?
	12:41pm βrian: Woodchucks and Whistle-Pigs aren't getting any love.
	12:42pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:43pm still b/p: I see many groundhogs in recent decades...backyard, roadsides, parks. Don't remember seeing them growing up. Population explosion? Paging a naturalist...northeast-familiar naturalist, please...
	12:44pm joe: Anybody know if the Chuck Jones Experience is still a thing in Las Vegas?
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: Chuck Taylors hate my feet and vice versa. The older I get, the less forgiving my feet are.
	12:44pm βrian: I was a PF Flyer man, myself.
	12:45pm Rich in Washington: I forgot about Keds.
	12:45pm joe: You will either love the Chuck experience or you will lose your pinkie toe.
	12:45pm queems: my pinky toes have burst through every pair of chuck taylors i have ever owned
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: Joe, queems, that's it, isn't it? They just aren't fit for people with wide-ish feet. That's been my experience.
	12:47pm Dean: I'm wearing cheap-ass Big 5 shoes that last forever and feel just fine.
	12:47pm Funky16corners: Vans 24/7/365
	12:47pm davefromtoronto: i'm not but i got a pair a few "feet" away from me at the door
	12:47pm still b/p: Several years ago I tipped stepping down into my basement carrying just-drained motor oil which spilled all over my blackish-greenish high-tops. I mourn them still. And they live somewhere in the dark here still.
	12:47pm βrian: I never tire of my Goodyear huaraches.
	12:48pm joe: @Rich I wore them exclusivly for years but as I got older and gained weight and my feet got wider I had to forgo doing such.
	12:48pm still b/p: "tripped"
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: Right now wearing real live Corcoran jump boots and my feet love 'em. First pair of leather lace-up boots that didn't kill my big fat ankles.
	12:49pm Jeff Golick: Sing it, Bob.
	12:49pm queems: @rich same with keds, which i still do wear. but you can get keds in wide and extra wide. neither of which are actually that wide
	12:49pm Rich in Washington: Chuck's are also way way too flat for my stupid high-arched foot.
	12:50pm Rich in Washington: I discovered the joys of wider-than-normal shoes that actually fit via New Balance, back when they were made in the USA and at high quality.
	12:50pm Listener Robert: I had not been aware of Keeshan's other-than-kangarooish work.
	12:51pm Rich in Washington: Half the fun of having feet is Red Goose Shoes.
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	12:51pm Uncle Michael: Robert!
	12:52pm northguineahills: oh, it was that Keeshan. I need to look up that record.
	12:53pm Parq: I used to love bright red Converse low-tops, but my feet haven't been able to take them in a long time. I have a pair of modern running shoes, but I just don't like them as much. They're too big; they feel like clown shoes.
	12:54pm still b/p: Keeshan also was one of the actors who played non-speaking Clarabell the Clown on Howdy Doody show.
	12:54pm queems: @parq agreed about most running shoes/sneakers. i feel like my feet are just massive boats
	12:55pm mauri: musical snuffbox.
	12:56pm northguineahills: I have canvass vans, and some swedish vans knockoff, but I only wear them in the non-winter. Oh god, I had this music box toy as a kid...
	12:56pm Dean: Well, now, here's a compelling article title, dated today, in Paris Review: James Joyce’s Love Letters to His “Dirty Little Fuckbird”
	12:57pm Rich in Washington: Wow! What the hell is this?
	12:57pm Alex in Illinois: Big transparent clock by Fischer-Price?
	12:57pm Funky16corners: So Beaker from the Muppet Show did an album?
	12:57pm queems: i feel like i just got fabio’d
	12:57pm northguineahills: @Alex: Si! Greetje Bijma, new to me and digdug!
	12:57pm joe: Chuck Conners. Thought I woudl just add another Chuck in there.
	12:58pm βrian: Any relation to the Canary called Onan?
	1:00pm Rich in Washington: I used to have a pair of Chuck Conners. Used to wear them all the time. On second thought, they might've just been cowboy boots...
	1:02pm joe: And before I take my leave you for a prior engament. Don't forget another name for a groundhog yup you gussed it a woodchuck.
	1:03pm Uncle Michael: Mauri!
	1:04pm still b/p: Up 'til Pee Wee, would that be one of the trippiest sets ever in the Hinky Dinky oeuvre? As the old song says..."Hinky Dinky gnarly oeuvre."
	1:07pm Dean: Another good GB record, featuring Dresser and Crispell: https://www.discogs.com/Greetje-Bijma-Barefoot/release/3871077
	1:07pm northguineahills: confused???, you will be on the next edition of Hinky Dinky Time!
	1:08pm northguineahills: err... episode.
	1:09pm northguineahills: Taking an early lunch, thanks UM!
	1:12pm Uncle Michael: Thanks, NGH!
	1:19pm still b/p: I can't imagine that Boston FM album stations...especially WBCN, didn't play Can in the 70s. But I don't recall any of it from then.
	1:19pm Jeff Golick: Oh, pour one out for Dennis Edwards of the The Temptations. RIP.
	1:20pm Uncle Michael: Damn.
	1:22pm Funky16corners: Sad
	1:22pm mauri: Now I know not to put money on west ham tomorrow.
	1:24pm Funky16corners: That was quite enough, says Bubbles
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: Bubbles can bl...
	1:26pm still b/p: Now we fight!
	1:26pm Rich in Washington: I refer to my left buttcheek as my West Ham.
	1:28pm Rich in Washington: Just realized that's the tune used for Monty Python's We Love The Yangtze. How big of a dork am I?
	1:28pm Uncle Michael: Pretty big!
	1:28pm Parq: I was kind of hoping for that Monty Python bit where UK goalies wax poetic about the Yangtze River and it's followed by a football-song-style ode to the Yangtze.
	1:29pm Parq: Rich, as big a one as I am, apparently.
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: HA!
	1:31pm still b/p: Pilgrim Travelers! Now we fight!
	1:34pm gloomsday: hi UM and friends <3 i've been sick all week, so here's hoping some hinky dinky time can do me good :)
	1:34pm Sem: Yep, like the "Blue" in there. Wondrous pipes.
	1:36pm Dean: Hello right back at ya! It's marvelous!
	1:38pm Dean: Oh, for sure, you can bet those AI geniuses are right on it. Next six months or so technology will be right where we need it to deliver today the full power of technology six months from now.
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: gloomsday! I hope we can do you some good, too!
	1:39pm Funky16corners: Switching streaming devices. Back soon
	1:41pm βrian: Why, it's almost Country-like ...
	1:42pm βrian: I know he's singing to his cat.
	1:43pm Dominick: Oh man, my mom would sing this one. I was only 10. Creeps me out.
	1:43pm Sem: ur-vocoder there?
	1:43pm βrian: Autotune in 1960? Who knew?
	1:44pm Dominick: Pedal steel / voice box combo
	1:44pm Dominick: www.youtube.com...
	1:47pm Sem: Dominick: great thing, but pretty creepy, that tube in his mouth.
	1:48pm βrian: David Lynch can't touch that! Bizarre!
	1:51pm still b/p: And check the Peter Drake version of Lonely Street at 1:22:59 on last night's Explorer's Room for more voice & steel talk. (The guy intro-ing a different Drake number in Dominick's video...cool gold lame jacket, but he doesn't wear it well.)
	1:52pm Dominick: @Sem Talk box, later used by Joe Walsh and of course Frampton Tube is attached to a loudspeaker driver. www.youtube.com...
	1:53pm Parq: Buddy Emmons did a talking-pedal-steel version of "My Buddy" that made it onto one of Monica's (uniformly great) marathon premiums.
	1:56pm Parq: Dominick, I was subscribing to "Guitar Player" magazine when the Frampton album was a hit. They had a monthly column on DYI effects boxes, and were deluged with requests for a column on building a voice box. I saw Stevie Wonder using one of those on TV around that time, highlighting his reading of "Papa Was a Rolling Stone".
	1:56pm βrian: UM, are you DJ-ing by rolodex again?
	1:57pm Uncle Michael: That's the McGuffin.
	1:59pm βrian: Isn't that a fast-food breakfast sandwich?
	2:01pm Dominick: Hi Parq, It's a simple device. Link I put up at 1:52 has Stevie on David Frost showing it off performing "Close to You"
	2:02pm still b/p: Among memories permanently attached to the season of BIG Frampton Comes Alive airplay: driving vehicles, with radio on, back and forth between Dave Dinger Ford and a nearby storage location -- including Mustang II fastbacks with 8 cylinders in the hopping li'l thing.
	2:09pm Funky16Corners: Don't forget Alvino Rey!
	2:10pm Lewis: This is pretty cool in its own way...
	2:10pm Parq: Will check it out later, Dominick. Can't access Youtube on my strangely Orwellian work puter.
	2:15pm Dominick: kissing the time indeed
	2:16pm Rich in Washington: whoa. Wasss happening...?
	2:17pm Uncle Michael: strange things
	2:17pm Rich in Washington: sounded like it slipped to the automatic stream for a second. Maybe not?
	2:17pm geezerette: scuse me while I kiss my watch...
	2:18pm Uncle Michael: That was the record, Rich.
	2:19pm geezerette: man, that squiggle can DANCE.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Geezerettte!
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Nice Janis Ian cover, eh?
	2:21pm geezerette: America's favorite Uncle!
	2:21pm annie: just got back from a morning's jaunt to corporate america.. one place stuck out: the local butcher shop with real people...you know that scene in zefferelli's "Romeo and Juliet" where juliet trusts herself into the friar's cell and wails about "Past hope......" well.... murka sucks
	2:21pm Uncle Michael: Annie!
	2:22pm Funky16Corners: I like this Shame cut. New to me.
	2:24pm geezerette: Never heard that Janis Ian song before!
	2:25pm Dean: Some days for me it's PEN-dyoo-lum, but then before you know it I've radically shifted to PEN-duh-lum, and then soon enough I'm back to the original.
	2:27pm Little Danny: Re: Welk hipsterismo, may I point you to this sir? www.discogs.com...
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: You've said the word as many as three times in the same day?
	2:28pm still b/p: A lot of "penjalum" is uttered, too.
	2:28pm βrian: I can almost hear those tiny bubbles.
	2:28pm Uncle Michael: That's terrifying, Danny.
	2:28pm geezerette: Welk con sabor!?
	2:28pm Dean: Yes, with some frequency.
	2:28pm Funky16Corners: Those early Janis Ian albums are fantastic.
	2:29pm geezerette: must find.
	2:29pm annie: UM!!!!
	2:30pm still b/p: Lawrence and Johnny keeping things brief on that album.
	2:30pm still b/p: Now THIS is a day-maker.
	2:31pm geezerette: Danny, that's actually unbelievable!!!
	2:32pm Parq: Literally, "Little Faithful Nightingale", sez Google Translate.
	2:33pm Jeff Golick: That Hodges/Welk thing...I literally rubbed my eyes, wondering if I was seeing that right.
	2:34pm Rich in Washington: what a great instrumental!
	2:34pm Funky16Corners: I wonder how that came together with almost a dozen different arrangers?
	2:35pm Uncle Michael: They kept quitting.
	2:36pm geezerette: Was "Thrill Me" part of the rise...or the fall? (of Paramount Records..)
	2:37pm Uncle Michael: For you, Larry...
	2:38pm melinda: hi all, I'm late. I was at my first exercise class since mandatory school P.E.
	2:39pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Unk!
	2:39pm Uncle Michael: Melinda!
	2:40pm Jeff Golick: Today I learned...Welk was awarded a US design patent for an accordion-themed ashtray. (One of four patents we was granted. Apparently.)
	2:41pm still b/p: I just sent a link for the Dietrich track to a friend spending a few days in Florida, so he can play it audibly while sitting on the beach and have interested women stop, "Mm. What are you listening to?"
	2:43pm Funky16Corners: Almost exactly 8 years ago; funky16corners.com...
	2:43pm Parq: Larry, feel free to give us a link for your blog-post on the Kelly Brothers, if you've got it handy.
	2:45pm still b/p: Just took a quick taste of Welk/Hodges doing Someone To Watch Over Me. Nooo, thenk yew.
	2:45pm Funky16Corners: See above your comment SBP
	2:46pm Funky16Corners: I mean Parq
	2:47pm Rich in Washington: I didn't get into the Fall until well into the Brix era. Still my favorite phase but I've been working my way back and forth through their ouvre ever since, and finding it all rewarding.
	2:47pm Jeff Golick: This is a good one. I actually hated this album (but for this song) when it first came out.
	2:48pm βrian: Hey, it's that talk-singing guy again.
	2:48pm Rich in Washington: One could make a pretty long and impressive show/setlist (etc.) of covers by The Fall.
	2:48pm Jeff Golick: * Infotainment, I think, @UM
	2:49pm Parq: Adapting something I said on Pseu's show, I am just going to sit here a bit and let it sink in that I live in a world where there is a Fall cover of "I'm Going to Spain".
	2:49pm Uncle Michael: typo...thanks
	2:49pm Dean: First heard The Fall upon release of Live at the Witch Trials, "No Xmas for John Quays" being the tune that stuck.
	2:50pm Jeff Golick: ...also, ScaN. See? Terrible album.
	2:50pm listener Rey: Not enough bile in this track, very unlike the Fall
	2:50pm Rich in Washington: I think that's correct, Jeff. Infotainment Scan. I remember buying it out of a cutout bin and not really digging it, but fondly recall this song.
	2:50pm doctorjazz: almost done-time flies when your having fun. Again, too swamped to post, but loved the show, thanks UM fun weekend all!
	2:51pm Alex in Illinois: Did Infotainment Scam have Telephone Thing on it?
	2:51pm melinda: Nice cover.
	2:52pm annie: oh damn, where's the damn i LOVE this clicky-star star??
	2:52pm Rich in Washington: No, but it had Glam Racket, another standout track from an otherwise lackluster late period Fall record.
	2:52pm Parq: I always did think that "I Will Survive" needed a good guitar solo.
	2:53pm doctorjazz: Like this Cake corver a whole lot!
	2:53pm geezerette: snide,yet sincere.
	2:53pm Alex in Illinois: I looked it up. I was thinking of Extricate. I know I have Infotainment Scam in some format, but don't recall my favorite track.
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: 'late period'. My bias is clearly showing. They went on for another two decades.
	2:53pm doctorjazz: (it needed the talk-sing treatment after the Gainer original)
	2:55pm Rich in Washington: I actually just found Extricate at a Salvation Army store just about two weeks before MES' death. It's not too bad. Most of the seminal lineup intact. It's his 'fresh from divorce' from Brix LP, so has an incredibly snotty cover of The Monks I Hate You, for some reason entitled Black Monk Theme.
	2:55pm βrian: It could've done with a little honk line, too.
	2:56pm Jeff Golick: @Rich: I'm with you on that timeline, tho. That Infotainment record was, I think, their first on Matador, and my thinking at the time was that the label just got there way too late. Meanwhile...two more decades.
	2:57pm still b/p: Doctor's office this morning. He plays message on his machine from patient seeking appointment today for tough continuing issue, but caller but says, if not, "I will survive." Doctor references the song. That's a firm footprint, there.
	2:57pm geezerette: Thanx,UM!!!
	2:58pm Uncle Michael: Thanks everyone. See you all in a week!
	2:58pm Roberto: Bai Unc!
	2:58pm Doug Schulkind: Grand Finale! I get it!
	2:59pm still b/p: Yes, thenk yew.
	3:00pm Funky16Corners: Great show Unk!
	3:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, UM! See ya later!
	3:01pm Alex in Illinois: Whenever I saw the "Hillary" signs on lawn in my neighborhood, the first thing that came to my mind was "Hilary" by The Fall.
	3:02pm Doug Schulkind: It's Mayuko!
	3:03pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, Unc.!
	6:27pm Stanley: Uncle, thanks for a very enjoyable show, up to your usual high standards. Hardly get to listen live nowadays but thanks be to the archives and in answer to your earlier question - the future is just fine with shows like this. See ya.
