Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 2, 2013 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.

Rich in Washington:

I am a bit more apprehensive about playing something I've heard on a live show - I guess there's a moratorium period for me. :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:42pm
Uncle Michael:

I feel the same thing. I'm only a dozen shows in and I've nixed things several times for that reason.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:42pm
Rich in Washington:

I can't even guess how many times some selection on the stream has made me google the song, track it down and even - Bob forbid - buy the CD, record, etc...
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member 12:46pm
listener james from westwood:

can't recall which dj it was, rich, but one guy said during his marathon shift that there are songs and albums out there that only appear as google hits on tony coulter's playlists. the archived playlists are such a fertile resource. and a hazard to the wallet!
