Listener comments!
	12:00pm Gary: In a meeting that just started, but back in about an hour
	12:01pm Stevel: I think we should wait for Gary.
	12:02pm Jeff Golick: Time to commute, though the gif is giving me pause. See you on the other side!
	12:03pm Doug Schulkind: Hello to Alex in Illinois and northguineahills who I neglected to greet over on the other side.
	12:04pm ndbob: afternoon UM and everyone!
	12:04pm Alex In Illinois: Hi Gang! I was there for Give The Drummer Some too, but I was busy working at the same time, so I did not have a chance to post anything.
	12:04pm Uncle Michael: Hello everyone!
	12:05pm Alex In Illinois: I remember this movie. I think it was rated "R" and there were no adults who thought it worth their time to take us to see it at the time.
	12:05pm duke: hello UM and everyone
	12:07pm pacific standard simon: Stoned embassies? Sign me up!
	12:08pm Uncle Michael: Hard to imagine that was rated R, Alex. maybe seeing Henry Fonda as a baddie was too much for kids.
	12:09pm Uncle Michael: Sing America with me...please?
	12:10pm Stevel: Hoping the Johnny Sea piece wraps up soon. Its difficult to work, standing at attention and saluting. (Nice "oriental" music theme.)
	12:11pm Mike East: that's Once Upon a Time in the West, right? I didn't like that one as much as the Clint Eastwood trilogy, as Sergio Leone films go.
	12:12pm pacific standard simon: There was a reason that the words "simpleminded" and "jingoism" were frequently used in the same sentence.
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: Please be seated.
	12:14pm Stevel: I will pass on the drugs Dion was taking when he performed this cover.
	12:14pm pacific standard simon: Dion's had that Jose Feliciano record on his turntable for the past two weeks!
	12:14pm Michael: Once Upon A Time in the West is Leone's best. And I don't think it could have been rated R - back in the 60's maybe rated M.
	12:15pm ndbob: I remember hearing this for the first time - quite uprising - @simon Yes:)
	12:15pm ndbob: Ah I remember passing up this LP for 99 cents
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: mistake!
	12:17pm ndbob: For sure UM
	12:17pm pacific standard simon: I'll take Graham Gouldman over Peter No-one as a singer any day, but the Hermits' ghosts were better musicians.
	12:23pm efd: present!
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: Ha!
	12:24pm efd: How's this for a story: a couple of years ago I got a copy of this single from a friend in LA who was moving... ... OUT OF THE HOUSE HE BOUGHT FROM DAVID DUNDAS!
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Wow. Did he leave any jeans behind?
	12:26pm efd: No, he had them all on.
	12:26pm pacific standard simon: He pulls his jeans on one leg at a time.
	12:27pm pacific standard simon: But does he love his shirt?
	12:29pm Doug Schulkind: Screw the yuppies and their pappardelle westerns. I just felt like saying that.
	12:30pm Dean: Here's a beautiful "Arms of Mary," c/o Mr. Kottke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUQWCpukraw
	12:31pm Mike East: had to google pappardelle. now I'm hungry.
	12:32pm Uncle Michael: Gotta check out the Leo after the show...thanks Dean.
	🛒 12:34pm Brian in UK: New word pappardelle - father of the man who runs the Italian food shop.
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: Evidently this is one of the earliest tracks built over a drum machine. This, according to some authors I heard on NPR with a drum machine book out.
	12:37pm Mike East: thought I was gonna have to sleep on the porch Wednesday night...I got home at 3am and forgot my key. Luckily I was able wake my wife up, but in doing so, woke the baby up, and therefore ended up with about 3 hours of sleep for the night.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Put the baby on the porch next time.
	12:40pm Doug Schulkind: Ladies and gents, James Black on the drums...
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Did I type that out loud? Sorry.
	12:45pm TR In MI: I gotta go but just wanted to say great show (as usual!) Uncle Mike, will be catching the rest later on the archives!
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Thanks TR!
	12:47pm Doug Schulkind: I love the James and Bobby Purify version of this. Which leads me to think of Purified Water. Sorry.
	12:49pm pacific standard simon: Bet you wouldn't make that joke on your own show!
	12:50pm Spooner Oldham: Screw who?
	12:51pm Gary: What did I miss?
	12:52pm pacific standard simon: All the good stuff.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Spooner wasn't one of the other guys.
	12:54pm KevinfromBayRidge: Anudder great one, Unc et al.Loving it all from temporary shelter from the storm in SE Fla in Android app.
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Come in I sez...I'll give you shelter from the storm, Kevin.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: efd and the rest of you rockers will enjoy the next set. I promise.
	12:58pm pacific standard simon: Need some live surfin' to warm your cockles? The live stream from Mavericks surf contest, for after this show: www.sfgate.com...
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, I saw that was being streamed. How big is the surf today?
	1:05pm Jeff Golick: This is probably not the largest wave surfed anymore, but this little vid still gives me the cold chills: www.youtube.com... Hi, again.
	1:07pm Uncle Michael: Sinnerman is all the big wave I care to surf today.
	1:11pm SeanG: holy shit that is a big wave! diggin this tune!
	1:14pm Mike East: no need to wait for the show to end...just turn the volume down. that's what I'm doing. Should I be working, yes, probably, but don't tell the boss.
	1:14pm Mike East: just read an article about Sherlock this morning that made me want to get into it. I think I've only seen one episode thus far.
	1:15pm northguineahills: I bought in to Sherlock as well...
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Hot Dogs = Big Star labelmates
	1:18pm Stevel: Sparks!!
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: Here's a surfing slideshow from Portugal last year. www.independent.co.uk...
	1:20pm Stevel: Bought this album used in 1979 or 80. Guy at the counter said something like "yeah, definitely a couple of weird English guys." Me: What's it sound like? Guy: "Sounds like a couple of weird English guys."
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Weird English guys from California.
	1:22pm efd: For me this was the less-listened-to side of Indiscreet.
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: I guess you were being discreet.
	1:25pm Stevel: California/England=same thing.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Absolutely!
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: I'd like to see Sugar live again.
	1:28pm Stevel: I'd agree with efd re. side one being optimal, buit I had a thing about listening to entire albums. I grew to enjoy side 2's more oddball arrangements. Mostly because I was fairly ADD about listening to all of the album, all of the time.
	1:30pm Stevel: I also had a thing about writing redundantly, much of the time, often. I'd love to see Sugar. Saw Husker Du several times.
	1:33pm SeanG: gonna turn this UP
	1:34pm northguineahills: I had a chance to see Francis Black solo back in '97, and had tickets. But I noticed a friend I knew from HS who drove over 70 miles to the venue (in my town) who was a HUGE Pixies/Francis fan, and was begging to buy tix for the sold out show. He offering 2.5x the amount of the face price of the ticket. I couldn't stand to see his agony, so I sold him my ticket at face value.
	1:34pm Mike East: aw come on, I just turned the surf stream off...now you play surfrock bed music?
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: What was I thinking?!
	1:39pm northguineahills: Ok, It's time for me to tune into Bryce. Thanks Unky Mikey!
	1:40pm northguineahills: (It's hard to divide this slot for my listening attention).
	1:40pm northguineahills: Never heard this Direct Current, Nice!
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Thanks NGH.
	1:41pm pacific standard simon: Sorry, I've been in and out (mostly out) -- getting ready for work. Near Santa Cruz is near enough. The thing I like about modern surf music is the relative absence of gratuitous saxophones.
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Disco trumps!
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Modern surf also seems to feature more than rudimentary bass and drums.
	1:44pm pacific standard simon: It would be nice to hear more bongos, though.
	1:44pm Uncle Michael: I agree. More bongos.
	1:45pm ccrides: Damn..!..I can't wait till spring!!!!...:)O(:..
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Spring is good.
	1:46pm hyde: I made it!
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: man...what a crappy sounding MP3. I'll bet the next one is just as mooshed.
	1:47pm pacific standard simon: Hey, my Criterion edition of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World arrived this week -- can't wait to dig in!
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: I won't tell you how it ends.
	1:48pm pacific standard simon: Too late.
	1:50pm pacific standard simon: Gots to go -- hear you again soon! Thanks for all the grooviness.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Simon...take care.
	1:52pm hyde: i thought only frogs sang this song
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Leon Frogbone.
	1:55pm glenn: nyuh uh. don't even think about it.
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: What's with all the damned disco today? Someone had to ask.
	2:02pm glenn: well, mike east, i remember once proudly telling somebody at a bar that i had never locked my keys in my car, only to get back to my car 2 hours later to find my keys locked in it.
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: I have never shot off one of my toes. Uh oh.
	2:05pm ccrides: Nice guitar!!!...:)O(:..
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, that was pretty sweet.
	2:06pm listener james from westwood: hey hey, folks! is there room for one more? or is that why charles is shaking his head?
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: bad old lions being drawn
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Squeeze in, James.
	2:08pm Mike East: @glenn - I've done that more times than I'd care to admit. Learned to break into my car pretty quickly as a result. I've also locked the keys in there with the car still running.
	2:08pm Jeff Golick: For after the show: the Bad Lip Reading folks did another NFL vid: www.youtube.com...
	2:08pm listener james from westwood: it's like groucho's cabin in "night at the opera" in here. i'll have two hard-boiled eggs.
	2:09pm Jeff Golick: If you told me that Miriam Makeba covered "For What It's Worth," I would only believe you because UM just played it on this show.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Are you sure you really heard it?
	2:10pm ccrides: I'll have a fried egg with the sunny side up and the other side over..!..:)O(:..
	2:11pm glenn: how great is bad lip reading? if only they could find a find to mash up with hitler rant parodies.
	2:13pm Jeff Golick: So so good, glenn. So so good. And now Twitter is freaking out because apparently gmail blew up?
	2:15pm glenn: it 'sploded real good?
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: That's right, Billy Sol.
	2:16pm Jeff Golick: Judging by the ALL CAPS explosion in my feeds, REAL GOOD.
	2:16pm earrie: It done blew up and went kaput when I clicked on 'display images' from 7SD newsletter. It was me. I admit it.
	2:16pm glenn: yep, temporarily unavailable.
	2:17pm glenn: we'll have to send our secret messages through here. did you get that, n.s.a?
	2:18pm Jeff Golick: I'm working on a killer postcard.
	🛒 2:18pm Brian in UK: @UM Was the Otis Redding only released in the USA.
	2:19pm ndbob: I saw Otis in 1967 - they brought out a crown and crowned him the king of soul
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: :)
	2:20pm listener james from westwood: usually i go to twitter to see if these services like gmail are down for anyone besides me. if twitter is down, i stare at the wall until the amoebas in my eyes begin to form words.
	2:21pm earrie: Did you see this recent video? Single Point of Failure: The Day Google Forgot To Check Passwords youtu.be... Funded by the Zuckerberg foundation, I think?

	2:23pm glenn: that's a downer, gary.
	2:24pm earrie: My apps mail is back-- And it's a dreamteam trio, that.
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: Mostly '90s and '00s in this set.
	2:27pm glenn: if loving belle and sebastian is wrong, i don't want to be right.
	2:30pm glenn: has there ever been a better twin sister lesbian act from alberta than tegan and sara? i ask that not knowing if k.d. lang has a singing lesbian twin.
	2:31pm jacob: this playlist is more therapeutic than a year of shrink therapy. thk u
	2:31pm listener james from westwood: gmail back up on this side. as if i weren't already gonna listen to the 1st 2 hours of the program, i see "sinnerman" up there. hotchie motchie.

	2:31pm Uncle Michael: What a compliment, jacob...thank you.
	2:32pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I go to WFMU's playlist comments, specifically in the Drummer stream, to find out if Twitter is down. (This way I never have to use Twitter, even when it's not working.)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: It's nice that you fret about Twitter anyway!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from January 24, 2014

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.

	12:14pm Michael: Once Upon A Time in the West is Leone's best. And I don't think it could have been rated R - back in the 60's maybe rated M.
	12:15pm ndbob: I remember hearing this for the first time - quite uprising - @simon Yes:)
	12:15pm ndbob: Ah I remember passing up this LP for 99 cents
	12:16pm Uncle Michael: mistake!
	12:17pm ndbob: For sure UM
	12:17pm pacific standard simon: I'll take Graham Gouldman over Peter No-one as a singer any day, but the Hermits' ghosts were better musicians.
	12:23pm efd: present!
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: Ha!
	12:24pm efd: How's this for a story: a couple of years ago I got a copy of this single from a friend in LA who was moving... ... OUT OF THE HOUSE HE BOUGHT FROM DAVID DUNDAS!
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Wow. Did he leave any jeans behind?
	12:26pm efd: No, he had them all on.
	12:26pm pacific standard simon: He pulls his jeans on one leg at a time.
	12:27pm pacific standard simon: But does he love his shirt?
	12:29pm Doug Schulkind: Screw the yuppies and their pappardelle westerns. I just felt like saying that.
	12:30pm Dean: Here's a beautiful "Arms of Mary," c/o Mr. Kottke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUQWCpukraw
	12:31pm Mike East: had to google pappardelle. now I'm hungry.
	12:32pm Uncle Michael: Gotta check out the Leo after the show...thanks Dean.
	🛒 12:34pm Brian in UK: New word pappardelle - father of the man who runs the Italian food shop.
	12:34pm Uncle Michael: Evidently this is one of the earliest tracks built over a drum machine. This, according to some authors I heard on NPR with a drum machine book out.
	12:37pm Mike East: thought I was gonna have to sleep on the porch Wednesday night...I got home at 3am and forgot my key. Luckily I was able wake my wife up, but in doing so, woke the baby up, and therefore ended up with about 3 hours of sleep for the night.
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Put the baby on the porch next time.
	12:40pm Doug Schulkind: Ladies and gents, James Black on the drums...
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: Did I type that out loud? Sorry.
	12:45pm TR In MI: I gotta go but just wanted to say great show (as usual!) Uncle Mike, will be catching the rest later on the archives!
	12:46pm Uncle Michael: Thanks TR!
	12:47pm Doug Schulkind: I love the James and Bobby Purify version of this. Which leads me to think of Purified Water. Sorry.
	12:49pm pacific standard simon: Bet you wouldn't make that joke on your own show!
	12:50pm Spooner Oldham: Screw who?
	12:51pm Gary: What did I miss?
	12:52pm pacific standard simon: All the good stuff.
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Spooner wasn't one of the other guys.
	12:54pm KevinfromBayRidge: Anudder great one, Unc et al.Loving it all from temporary shelter from the storm in SE Fla in Android app.
	12:55pm Uncle Michael: Come in I sez...I'll give you shelter from the storm, Kevin.
	12:58pm Uncle Michael: efd and the rest of you rockers will enjoy the next set. I promise.
	12:58pm pacific standard simon: Need some live surfin' to warm your cockles? The live stream from Mavericks surf contest, for after this show: www.sfgate.com...
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, I saw that was being streamed. How big is the surf today?
	1:05pm Jeff Golick: This is probably not the largest wave surfed anymore, but this little vid still gives me the cold chills: www.youtube.com... Hi, again.
	1:07pm Uncle Michael: Sinnerman is all the big wave I care to surf today.
	1:11pm SeanG: holy shit that is a big wave! diggin this tune!
	1:14pm Mike East: no need to wait for the show to end...just turn the volume down. that's what I'm doing. Should I be working, yes, probably, but don't tell the boss.
	1:14pm Mike East: just read an article about Sherlock this morning that made me want to get into it. I think I've only seen one episode thus far.
	1:15pm northguineahills: I bought in to Sherlock as well...
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Hot Dogs = Big Star labelmates
	1:18pm Stevel: Sparks!!
	🛒 1:19pm Brian in UK: Here's a surfing slideshow from Portugal last year. www.independent.co.uk...
	1:20pm Stevel: Bought this album used in 1979 or 80. Guy at the counter said something like "yeah, definitely a couple of weird English guys." Me: What's it sound like? Guy: "Sounds like a couple of weird English guys."
	1:21pm Uncle Michael: Weird English guys from California.
	1:22pm efd: For me this was the less-listened-to side of Indiscreet.
	1:23pm Uncle Michael: I guess you were being discreet.
	1:25pm Stevel: California/England=same thing.
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: Absolutely!
	1:27pm Uncle Michael: I'd like to see Sugar live again.
	1:28pm Stevel: I'd agree with efd re. side one being optimal, buit I had a thing about listening to entire albums. I grew to enjoy side 2's more oddball arrangements. Mostly because I was fairly ADD about listening to all of the album, all of the time.
	1:30pm Stevel: I also had a thing about writing redundantly, much of the time, often. I'd love to see Sugar. Saw Husker Du several times.
	1:33pm SeanG: gonna turn this UP
	1:34pm northguineahills: I had a chance to see Francis Black solo back in '97, and had tickets. But I noticed a friend I knew from HS who drove over 70 miles to the venue (in my town) who was a HUGE Pixies/Francis fan, and was begging to buy tix for the sold out show. He offering 2.5x the amount of the face price of the ticket. I couldn't stand to see his agony, so I sold him my ticket at face value.
	1:34pm Mike East: aw come on, I just turned the surf stream off...now you play surfrock bed music?
	1:38pm Uncle Michael: What was I thinking?!
	1:39pm northguineahills: Ok, It's time for me to tune into Bryce. Thanks Unky Mikey!
	1:40pm northguineahills: (It's hard to divide this slot for my listening attention).
	1:40pm northguineahills: Never heard this Direct Current, Nice!
	1:40pm Uncle Michael: Thanks NGH.
	1:41pm pacific standard simon: Sorry, I've been in and out (mostly out) -- getting ready for work. Near Santa Cruz is near enough. The thing I like about modern surf music is the relative absence of gratuitous saxophones.
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Disco trumps!
	1:42pm Uncle Michael: Modern surf also seems to feature more than rudimentary bass and drums.
	1:44pm pacific standard simon: It would be nice to hear more bongos, though.
	1:44pm Uncle Michael: I agree. More bongos.
	1:45pm ccrides: Damn..!..I can't wait till spring!!!!...:)O(:..
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: Spring is good.
	1:46pm hyde: I made it!
	1:46pm Uncle Michael: man...what a crappy sounding MP3. I'll bet the next one is just as mooshed.
	1:47pm pacific standard simon: Hey, my Criterion edition of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World arrived this week -- can't wait to dig in!
	1:48pm Uncle Michael: I won't tell you how it ends.
	1:48pm pacific standard simon: Too late.
	1:50pm pacific standard simon: Gots to go -- hear you again soon! Thanks for all the grooviness.
	1:51pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Simon...take care.
	1:52pm hyde: i thought only frogs sang this song
	1:54pm Uncle Michael: Leon Frogbone.
	1:55pm glenn: nyuh uh. don't even think about it.
	1:58pm Uncle Michael: What's with all the damned disco today? Someone had to ask.
	2:02pm glenn: well, mike east, i remember once proudly telling somebody at a bar that i had never locked my keys in my car, only to get back to my car 2 hours later to find my keys locked in it.
	2:03pm Uncle Michael: I have never shot off one of my toes. Uh oh.
	2:05pm ccrides: Nice guitar!!!...:)O(:..
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: Yeah, that was pretty sweet.
	2:06pm listener james from westwood: hey hey, folks! is there room for one more? or is that why charles is shaking his head?
	2:06pm Uncle Michael: bad old lions being drawn
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Squeeze in, James.
	2:08pm Mike East: @glenn - I've done that more times than I'd care to admit. Learned to break into my car pretty quickly as a result. I've also locked the keys in there with the car still running.
	2:08pm Jeff Golick: For after the show: the Bad Lip Reading folks did another NFL vid: www.youtube.com...
	2:08pm listener james from westwood: it's like groucho's cabin in "night at the opera" in here. i'll have two hard-boiled eggs.
	2:09pm Jeff Golick: If you told me that Miriam Makeba covered "For What It's Worth," I would only believe you because UM just played it on this show.
	2:09pm Uncle Michael: Are you sure you really heard it?
	2:10pm ccrides: I'll have a fried egg with the sunny side up and the other side over..!..:)O(:..
	2:11pm glenn: how great is bad lip reading? if only they could find a find to mash up with hitler rant parodies.
	2:13pm Jeff Golick: So so good, glenn. So so good. And now Twitter is freaking out because apparently gmail blew up?
	2:15pm glenn: it 'sploded real good?
	2:15pm Uncle Michael: That's right, Billy Sol.
	2:16pm Jeff Golick: Judging by the ALL CAPS explosion in my feeds, REAL GOOD.
	2:16pm earrie: It done blew up and went kaput when I clicked on 'display images' from 7SD newsletter. It was me. I admit it.
	2:16pm glenn: yep, temporarily unavailable.
	2:17pm glenn: we'll have to send our secret messages through here. did you get that, n.s.a?
	2:18pm Jeff Golick: I'm working on a killer postcard.
	🛒 2:18pm Brian in UK: @UM Was the Otis Redding only released in the USA.
	2:19pm ndbob: I saw Otis in 1967 - they brought out a crown and crowned him the king of soul
	2:19pm Jeff Golick: :)
	2:20pm listener james from westwood: usually i go to twitter to see if these services like gmail are down for anyone besides me. if twitter is down, i stare at the wall until the amoebas in my eyes begin to form words.
	2:21pm earrie: Did you see this recent video? Single Point of Failure: The Day Google Forgot To Check Passwords youtu.be... Funded by the Zuckerberg foundation, I think?

	2:23pm glenn: that's a downer, gary.
	2:24pm earrie: My apps mail is back-- And it's a dreamteam trio, that.
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: Mostly '90s and '00s in this set.
	2:27pm glenn: if loving belle and sebastian is wrong, i don't want to be right.
	2:30pm glenn: has there ever been a better twin sister lesbian act from alberta than tegan and sara? i ask that not knowing if k.d. lang has a singing lesbian twin.
	2:31pm jacob: this playlist is more therapeutic than a year of shrink therapy. thk u

	2:32pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I go to WFMU's playlist comments, specifically in the Drummer stream, to find out if Twitter is down. (This way I never have to use Twitter, even when it's not working.)
	2:33pm Uncle Michael: It's nice that you fret about Twitter anyway!
