Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from November 10, 2023 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

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.

Made in '73, set in '62; I've always thought the cultural difference and nostalgia that is huge in Graffiti and contributed mightily to its popularity wouldn't be possible across many other periods so short -- 11 years.
