WFMU: Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 1, 2019

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from February 1, 2019

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.

	12:06pm Stanley: Hi Uncle. Lets go.
	12:06pm Mark Hurst: Hi UM!
	12:07pm burke: Oh cool I didn't realize J Geils band's version was a cover
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: annie! Brian! Rich! chresti! burke! Sem! Franco! dan! Stanley! Mark!
	12:09pm dan: @Burke I didn’t realize that Simply Red’s “Its Only Love” was a Barry White song until this week.

	12:12pm Dominick: I'm groovin' to this!
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: mauri! Roberto! Jon! Dominick!

	12:21pm melinda: Hello everyone!

	12:22pm Uncle Michael: melinda!
	12:23pm Dominick: Woofa Goofa!
	🛒 12:23pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks David, But I just got the spuds going in a pot.
	12:23pm Listening Out There: I'd only heard the J. Geils "So Sharp." Great to hear this version...
	12:24pm Stanley: I've taken the Moussaka out of the oven. Time for a drink, I think.

	12:26pm Stanley: I took the afternoon off, so put it to some use.

	12:29pm Rich in Washington: When I first started buying records in earners, my copy of Roger Miller's King of the Road used to have a bad skip on 'ain't got no cigarettes' and I'd just let it loop forever. It was hilarious. It drove my roommates bonkers.
	12:29pm Stanley: Any condiments Jon?
	🛒 12:30pm Franco Twinkie: The cover of the album Peanut Butter is as good as the song.

	🛒 12:38pm Franco Twinkie: ...and the reason I never did my homework is because I was listening to the radio.
	12:38pm Stanley: Right, I'm off to the pub. But I'll be listening and keeping an eye on you all.
	🛒 12:39pm Franco Twinkie: The Ice Picker!
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: last orders, Stanley!
	🛒 12:45pm Franco Twinkie: Albert Collins was a real hard case, but kind of a goof too. I saw him at the Wilshire Ebel with a hundred foot guitar cord come into the lobby of the theater stabbing his yellow Telecaster with a toothless grin as people stood around him clapping.

	12:55pm Rich in Washington: I live just across the river from Portland OR, in Vancouver, WA, and the big deal here was that Willie Nelson was a DJ in our town for a couple of years in the 50s.
	12:55pm Asheville Jon: i saw the jgeilsband later on, on the frezze frame tour.
	12:56pm Rich in Washington: There's a mural on Main Street that commemorates it. I just wish they'd do something about Mad Magazine illustrator Basil Wolverton living in Vancouver for most of his life.
	12:56pm dan: I’ve seen over 40 concerts and unfortunately, J. Geils Band wasn’t one of them.
	12:57pm Listening Out There: Oh. Sly Stone was also previously a DJ...
	🛒 1:02pm Franco Twinkie: An old girlfriend and I loved Tell Me Mamma by Little Walter, which had the inventive line: "You come around smelling like a whiskey can...."
	1:14pm Lizardner Dave Somethingorother: Had to click over here to see the title of that Bull and the Matatdors song because i was mishearing the lyric as "Judge, the stolen monkey" and wondering why I never heard Dave the Spazz play it.

	12:23pm Dominick: Woofa Goofa!
	🛒 12:23pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks David, But I just got the spuds going in a pot.
	12:23pm Listening Out There: I'd only heard the J. Geils "So Sharp." Great to hear this version...
	12:24pm Stanley: I've taken the Moussaka out of the oven. Time for a drink, I think.

	12:26pm Stanley: I took the afternoon off, so put it to some use.

	12:29pm Rich in Washington: When I first started buying records in earners, my copy of Roger Miller's King of the Road used to have a bad skip on 'ain't got no cigarettes' and I'd just let it loop forever. It was hilarious. It drove my roommates bonkers.

	🛒 12:30pm Franco Twinkie: The cover of the album Peanut Butter is as good as the song.

	12:39pm Uncle Michael: last orders, Stanley!
	🛒 12:45pm Franco Twinkie: Albert Collins was a real hard case, but kind of a goof too. I saw him at the Wilshire Ebel with a hundred foot guitar cord come into the lobby of the theater stabbing his yellow Telecaster with a toothless grin as people stood around him clapping.

	12:57pm Listening Out There: Oh. Sly Stone was also previously a DJ...
	🛒 1:02pm Franco Twinkie: An old girlfriend and I loved Tell Me Mamma by Little Walter, which had the inventive line: "You come around smelling like a whiskey can...."
	1:14pm Lizardner Dave Somethingorother: Had to click over here to see the title of that Bull and the Matatdors song because i was mishearing the lyric as "Judge, the stolen monkey" and wondering why I never heard Dave the Spazz play it.
