	♥ 12:23pm Franco Twinkie: This is a great song! In this time of crisis, Steely Dan sounds just about perfect.
	12:23pm dan: @UM Squeeze is one of those bands I'd love to see live. Tickets for their Beacon Theater show weren't even that expensive. Should've went.
	♥ 12:24pm Roberto: (Le Dan Steely et le dan ici)
	♥ 12:24pm Michael 98145: SM Ken is shutting the studios until April 6th ...

	♥ 12:59pm Uncle Michael: Power to the Cat (Power)
	12:59pm Marie: @ UM: yazz. Hi EFD!
	1:02pm dan: @hyde It was the better of the two films from 1998 about Armageddon.

	1:09pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow hinky dinky listeners
	🛒 ♥ 1:10pm doctorjazz: Hey, Dean! I was in a record store a few weeks ago, saw Duck Baker's Herbie Nichols album on vinyl, and I picked it up. What a great album! (And the sound of the vinyl is fabulous as well). That was a recommendation you gave me a while back, but I hadn't gotten to, thanks!

	♥ 1:11pm Uncle Michael: John!

	🛒 ♥ 1:11pm doctorjazz: Love this Slim record!
	🛒 ♥ 1:12pm Pedro in Arlington: Keep on keeping on in Topeka, Uncle Mike. What Franklin Roosevelt was for radio in the '30s and '40s, WFMU and GTDS is for radio in the '20s. Let me know when we get to zero.
	🛒 ♥ 1:12pm doctorjazz: And FOW, so sorry they disbanded, one of my favorites!
	♥ 1:12pm Uncle Michael: Pedro! BAD SEGUE ALERT!
	1:13pm dan: I live near the real Utopia Parkway.

	♥ 1:29pm Franco Twinkie: On this glorious first full day of Spring, I am writing my mom a letter that I will take over to her facility and hand though the door explaining why I can't come inside for a visit.
	♥ 1:30pm Uncle Michael: Be strong, Franco.
	♥ 1:31pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Good morning!
	♥ 1:33pm Franco Twinkie: On the lighter side, a friend who lives in Oakland saw a frustrated guy race out of the parking lot at Costco, drive across the side walk, and run into a phone poll. I will include that in the letter. My mom loves that kind of stuff.
	♥ 1:34pm Sem: Hello, UM, the Hinky Dinky crowd---socially distant from one another, we can only hope, and all, disinfecting oftener than seems necessary, but doing so nonetheless.
	♥ 1:34pm Doug Schulkind: Working from home means two things: (1) Stay in pajamas all day (2) Get to listen to Hinky Dinky Time at top volume for three beautiful hours!
	🛒 ♥ 1:38pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy
	♥ 1:38pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie! Sem! Phillipe!

	1:40pm dan: Is Green-Eyed Lady what we should be calling the virus from now?
	♥ 1:40pm Uncle Michael: Brother Sinner!
	♥ 1:44pm Uncle Michael: Doug, let's just say I'm still dressed as I was for bed. and leave it at that.
	🛒 ♥ 1:45pm Pedro in Arlington: Brother Sinner does the Lord's work. Actually everyone connected with WFMU does. Tithe the remaining Marathon disparity away. Up yours.
	♥ 1:46pm hyde: i had to put on pants this morning to go shopping, but changed into my work clothes--i.e. pajamas--as soon as i got home
	♥ 1:47pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great to see everybody and thanks for being here UM.
	♥ 1:47pm Uncle Michael: My pleasure, Lizzie. Thank you for being here.
	🛒 ♥ 1:47pm The Oscar: Afternoon! My main adaptation has been to reroute the film site I run toward offbeat streaming adaptations, since we've otherwise got nothing else to cover for the foreseeable future: bostonhassle.com...
	♥ 1:48pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	1:48pm Funky16Corners: I’m back. Got some cabin fever shit going down in the house.
	1:49pm Marie: Hey, to help maintain (?) my sanity: I am running and walking outside, and doing yoga, and watching this incredible Italian detective show called "Inspector Montalbano" on this on-demand network that only shows foreign detective shows. Plus talking on the phone and texting. Working full-time from home now helps too.
	♥ 1:49pm Uncle Michael: WB, F16C
	♥ 1:50pm Uncle Michael: subtitles, Marie?
	1:50pm dan: Here’s a Gibb you don’t hear singing lead a lot.
	♥ 1:50pm hyde: @The Oscar it's too bad, there was stuff at the HFA and the Brattle that was upcoming
	🛒 ♥ 1:51pm Cmurtha: hey john how are you doing?
	1:51pm Marie: Hey Franco--I wish you and your mom the best.
	1:51pm still b/p: My mama, age 91 and a couple states away, sent me a St. Patick's Day card a few days ago, and reported that everyone is bending over backwards to make sure she doesn't get the virus, but that she's "healthier than all of you."
	♥ 1:52pm Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	♥ 1:52pm melinda: hi all!
	♥ 1:52pm Uncle Michael: melinda!
	🛒 ♥ 1:53pm The Oscar: @hyde Ugh, I know-- BUFF is one of the highlights of my year, and I was crushed to get the email that it was postponed :(
	🛒 ♥ 1:56pm Phillippe Bastille: Well! One of my bride's employees just went into labor. A fine time to spend a day or so in the hospital, doncha think?
	♥ 1:56pm Michael 98145: So far this century has given a whole new meaning to Party Like It's 1999.
	🛒 ♥ 1:59pm Phillippe Bastille: Fun fact: first US president born in a hospital was Jimmy Carter
	♥ 2:00pm melinda: I had a nice catch-up phone visit with my sister-in-law just now and have avoided checking the Maine CDC website so far, so I think today is going better than yesterday. Learned that sister-in-law found a half-sister through an ancestry site after years of trying to track down birth parents, which I think is really cool.
	2:02pm dan: I knew that was The Bee Gees because I have that record on vinyl
	♥ 2:02pm Stanley: @melinda - that's very cool
	2:02pm Marie: "Brown Sabbath"--I love it
	2:04pm Marie: One of my all-time favorite songs
	🛒 ♥ 2:05pm david w: Thanks for the wonderfulness, Uncle Michael.
	♥ 2:05pm Michael 98145: love it
	♥ 2:05pm Uncle Michael: Thank you for your kind words, David!
	♥ 2:11pm Michael 98145: Great name. Mezz Mezzrow.
	♥ 2:12pm melinda: I like Fred's singing.
	♥ 2:12pm Doug Schulkind: Fred Astaire, an underrated singer. What a glorious human.
	♥ 2:13pm hyde: I saw this in the flick on TCM not too long ago
	2:13pm Marie: I agree with all of you about Fred. Watching those movies as a kid and hearing these songs thrilled me (I realize now)
	♥ 2:15pm Michael 98145: Whee !
	2:15pm still b/p: Different versions are cited of what the initial screen test notes said. Fred himself reported much later it was:"Can't act. Slightly bald. Also dances." Selznick said this: "I am uncertain about the man, but I feel, in spite of his enormous ears and bad chin line, that his charm is so tremendous that it comes through even on this wretched test."
	♥ 2:16pm Michael 98145: Never tire of his movies
	♥ 2:16pm Uncle Michael: Selznick was no dope.
	♥ 2:17pm melinda: @still b/p that's hilarious
	🛒 ♥ 2:19pm Phillippe Bastille: Oh man, I haven't heard this Peter Case in years! So sweet!
	♥ 2:19pm chresti: I haven't been ordered to stay home from work, yet. Although the city is sending surveys to fill out and send back for possible disaster relief service.
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: That's how I felt a couple of days ago, Phillipe.
	♥ 2:20pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Greetings, Uncle Michael and Hinky Dinksters!
	2:20pm ifny: Happy New Year and new reality everyone <3 The bees are furiously pollenating here on the west coast, sun shining, eagles flying, hands washing.
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: Granny!
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: ifny!
	♥ 2:20pm hyde: @still b/p yeah, i've always heard that first one as "can't sing. can't act. can dance a little"
	2:20pm ifny: Unca Michael!
	♥ 2:21pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Speaking of movies, i just watched "Hail the Conquering Hero" and yelped with surprise when the protagonists father's name was Hinky Dinky!!!
	♥ 2:21pm Uncle Michael: what?!
	2:21pm ifny: Loved the Louis Jordan number, however I believe the word "Five" snuck into the track name. He played a Tympany Five, not just one :)
	♥ 2:22pm Michael 98145: You never let us down, UM. Thank you.
	2:22pm ifny: *played with
	♥ 2:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Reminding all WFMU pals that i will send you funny postcards if you contact me via my profile. Let's be penpals!
	♥ 2:23pm Uncle Michael: thanks ifny!
	♥ 2:24pm Uncle Michael: Aww, Michael...thanks.
	2:26pm still b/p: My favorite Fred number is in "Swing Time," when Fred pulls Ginger into a routine to demonstrate to the grumpy dance studio boss what Ginger has "taught" him. It's simple and joyful to watch, without the gimmicks and elaborate staging concepts of his other musicals, especially later ones. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 2:26pm Dominick: Greetings from my "at home" outpost
	♥ 2:27pm hyde: the only good wrap is a house made tortilla
	♥ 2:27pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): an old pal of mine says "extry" so i would like "extry sweepuns!" please!
	2:27pm Listening Out There: "Uncle Miguel"
	2:28pm Funky16Corners: That’s how I refer to TV shows with casts made up largely of cast members of older shows: TV sweepings
	♥ 2:28pm melinda: Eww, Long John Silver's wrap sounds horrid. I always avoided wraps because they usually involve crappy tortillas.
	2:29pm nachurall: Greetings from Lincoln, NE uNcle Michael!
	♥ 2:30pm hyde: @melinda exactly!
	🛒 ♥ 2:30pm Alex In Illinois: I have never eaten anything from Long John Silvers. The one in Oak Park closed some time last year
	♥ 2:32pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): right here, UM! I love you! I am so grateful for all the devoted folx keeping WFMU available for us.
	2:32pm barrett785: Living just north of Long John's makes for smelly days come summer.
	2:32pm Funky16Corners: Noyce....
	♥ 2:32pm melinda: Also, re: wraps, not everything pairs well with tortilla.
	♥ 2:32pm burke: @Alex you content yourself at Buona Beef?
	♥ 2:33pm hyde: i saw the Feelies last year in Cambridge and they were SO GOOD
	🛒 ♥ 2:33pm Lizardner Dave 2: It's not Long John Sliver's but for a while back in the 1990s some friends and I used to smoke a little something and then go to the Beefsteak Charlie's all you can eat shrimp buffet and get pitchers of the cheapest beer possible with it. Might've been Schaefer.
	♥ 2:34pm Uncle Michael: Dave!
	2:34pm Funky16Corners: Haledon, NJ’s own...
	🛒 ♥ 2:34pm KevinfromBayRidge: UNC! (and everyone!) So I listened to the first half of the show( via Android app) whilst running along NY Harbor. Gettin, some exercise and Social Distancing!
	2:35pm dan: I could’ve sworn that was Lou Reed.
	♥ 2:35pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! dan, they tried!
	♥ 2:35pm hyde: @UM haha
	♥ 2:35pm chresti: Still here UM, all day..thanks for being here!
	2:36pm Funky16Corners: UM - the conventional wisdom is how Velvety this is, but am I the only one who hears some New Potato Caboose sneaking in?
	🛒 ♥ 2:36pm doctorjazz: Lou Reed came to mind first to me as well.
	2:36pm Marie: Hey Alex in Illinois--I used to go to that Long John Silvers (I grew up in Forest Park)--my family was always seeking out new fried fish options. And I proudly carry on that tradition :>) Where do you live?
	♥ 2:36pm Uncle Michael: Nope, Larry. Good call.
	🛒 ♥ 2:37pm Lizardner Dave 2: Thanks for the show today UM.
	♥ 2:37pm Dominick: despite all the complications......
	♥ 2:38pm Uncle Michael: YW, Dave. Dominick!
	2:38pm ifny: Hang in there everyone. Thanks for spinning, Uncle Michael.
	♥ 2:39pm Uncle Michael: I ain't done!
	🛒 ♥ 2:39pm efd: wow, how have I not heard of King Ping Meh before?!

	2:43pm dan: Here’s some weekend viewing for all of you: The Dweezil Zappa concert I was at in its entirety. https://youtu.be/anjFE9kAzyw
	🛒 ♥ 2:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Maybe next year!
	♥ 2:44pm Sem: Thx, Dan. Duly copied and saved.
	🛒 ♥ 2:45pm Lizardner Dave 2: Hi Ho, I'm the King of Give Peace A Chance Land!
	♥ 2:45pm Doug Schulkind: Louis Armstrong performed "Give Peace a Chance" at his last-ever recording session, in May 1970.
	2:46pm Funky16Corners: That album has some cool stuff on it. Satchmo riffing with Leon Thomas.
	2:49pm ifny: Wow, thanks Doug. Had no idea.
	♥ 2:49pm Doug Schulkind: Yes. A gobsmacking album. He does "Creator Has a Master Plan" with Leon Thomas. When I heard that for the first time, over the car radio in Washington, DC, I nearly ran off the road.
	2:49pm ifny: And thanks Dan! I'll pass that around.
	♥ 2:50pm chresti: On the bright side, the air quality is better..
	♥ 2:50pm burke: We need more bubblegum around here!
	♥ 2:51pm Uncle Michael: hear hear, burke!
	2:53pm dan: Heard Peter Asher perform this at Beatlefest.

	🛒 ♥ 2:56pm KevinfromBayRidge: Very nice to meet your lad, Mrs Stanley!
	♥ 2:59pm Michael 98145: Thank you again. [solidarity]

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from March 20, 2020

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.

	🛒 ♥ 1:10pm doctorjazz: Hey, Dean! I was in a record store a few weeks ago, saw Duck Baker's Herbie Nichols album on vinyl, and I picked it up. What a great album! (And the sound of the vinyl is fabulous as well). That was a recommendation you gave me a while back, but I hadn't gotten to, thanks!

	♥ 1:31pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Good morning!
	♥ 1:33pm Franco Twinkie: On the lighter side, a friend who lives in Oakland saw a frustrated guy race out of the parking lot at Costco, drive across the side walk, and run into a phone poll. I will include that in the letter. My mom loves that kind of stuff.
	♥ 1:34pm Sem: Hello, UM, the Hinky Dinky crowd---socially distant from one another, we can only hope, and all, disinfecting oftener than seems necessary, but doing so nonetheless.

	🛒 ♥ 1:47pm The Oscar: Afternoon! My main adaptation has been to reroute the film site I run toward offbeat streaming adaptations, since we've otherwise got nothing else to cover for the foreseeable future: bostonhassle.com...
	♥ 1:48pm Uncle Michael: Oscar!
	1:48pm Funky16Corners: I’m back. Got some cabin fever shit going down in the house.
	1:49pm Marie: Hey, to help maintain (?) my sanity: I am running and walking outside, and doing yoga, and watching this incredible Italian detective show called "Inspector Montalbano" on this on-demand network that only shows foreign detective shows. Plus talking on the phone and texting. Working full-time from home now helps too.
	♥ 1:49pm Uncle Michael: WB, F16C

	1:51pm still b/p: My mama, age 91 and a couple states away, sent me a St. Patick's Day card a few days ago, and reported that everyone is bending over backwards to make sure she doesn't get the virus, but that she's "healthier than all of you."
	♥ 1:52pm Uncle Michael: still b/p!
	♥ 1:52pm melinda: hi all!
	♥ 1:52pm Uncle Michael: melinda!
	🛒 ♥ 1:53pm The Oscar: @hyde Ugh, I know-- BUFF is one of the highlights of my year, and I was crushed to get the email that it was postponed :(
	🛒 ♥ 1:56pm Phillippe Bastille: Well! One of my bride's employees just went into labor. A fine time to spend a day or so in the hospital, doncha think?
	♥ 1:56pm Michael 98145: So far this century has given a whole new meaning to Party Like It's 1999.
	🛒 ♥ 1:59pm Phillippe Bastille: Fun fact: first US president born in a hospital was Jimmy Carter
	♥ 2:00pm melinda: I had a nice catch-up phone visit with my sister-in-law just now and have avoided checking the Maine CDC website so far, so I think today is going better than yesterday. Learned that sister-in-law found a half-sister through an ancestry site after years of trying to track down birth parents, which I think is really cool.
	2:02pm dan: I knew that was The Bee Gees because I have that record on vinyl

	♥ 2:12pm melinda: I like Fred's singing.
	♥ 2:12pm Doug Schulkind: Fred Astaire, an underrated singer. What a glorious human.
	♥ 2:13pm hyde: I saw this in the flick on TCM not too long ago
	2:13pm Marie: I agree with all of you about Fred. Watching those movies as a kid and hearing these songs thrilled me (I realize now)
	♥ 2:15pm Michael 98145: Whee !
	2:15pm still b/p: Different versions are cited of what the initial screen test notes said. Fred himself reported much later it was:"Can't act. Slightly bald. Also dances." Selznick said this: "I am uncertain about the man, but I feel, in spite of his enormous ears and bad chin line, that his charm is so tremendous that it comes through even on this wretched test."
	♥ 2:16pm Michael 98145: Never tire of his movies
	♥ 2:16pm Uncle Michael: Selznick was no dope.
	♥ 2:17pm melinda: @still b/p that's hilarious
	🛒 ♥ 2:19pm Phillippe Bastille: Oh man, I haven't heard this Peter Case in years! So sweet!
	♥ 2:19pm chresti: I haven't been ordered to stay home from work, yet. Although the city is sending surveys to fill out and send back for possible disaster relief service.
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: That's how I felt a couple of days ago, Phillipe.
	♥ 2:20pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Greetings, Uncle Michael and Hinky Dinksters!
	2:20pm ifny: Happy New Year and new reality everyone <3 The bees are furiously pollenating here on the west coast, sun shining, eagles flying, hands washing.
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: Granny!
	♥ 2:20pm Uncle Michael: ifny!
	♥ 2:20pm hyde: @still b/p yeah, i've always heard that first one as "can't sing. can't act. can dance a little"
	2:20pm ifny: Unca Michael!
	♥ 2:21pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Speaking of movies, i just watched "Hail the Conquering Hero" and yelped with surprise when the protagonists father's name was Hinky Dinky!!!
	♥ 2:21pm Uncle Michael: what?!
	2:21pm ifny: Loved the Louis Jordan number, however I believe the word "Five" snuck into the track name. He played a Tympany Five, not just one :)
	♥ 2:22pm Michael 98145: You never let us down, UM. Thank you.
	2:22pm ifny: *played with
	♥ 2:23pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Reminding all WFMU pals that i will send you funny postcards if you contact me via my profile. Let's be penpals!
	♥ 2:23pm Uncle Michael: thanks ifny!
	♥ 2:24pm Uncle Michael: Aww, Michael...thanks.
	2:26pm still b/p: My favorite Fred number is in "Swing Time," when Fred pulls Ginger into a routine to demonstrate to the grumpy dance studio boss what Ginger has "taught" him. It's simple and joyful to watch, without the gimmicks and elaborate staging concepts of his other musicals, especially later ones. www.youtube.com...
