	12:08pm dan: They’re protesting in my neighborhood. In fact one of the drivers got out of his car and chased the protesters around with a Wolverine claw.
	🛒 12:09pm Franco Twinkie: Guilt is not a useful emotion, so let's dispense with the concept and try and occupy a more constructive head space. And how shall I say, rip it up and boogie down?

	12:13pm solo mon: Ahh this song!
	12:13pm Roberto: Zappa was always ahead of the curve.
	12:13pm StringOFperils: Let's be Frank.
	12:13pm chresti: A little break from the heat for a couple days, solo.
	12:13pm solo mon: Frankly my dear,
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Roberto.
	12:13pm Stanley: Yay Uncle! I'm surprised this is the first time I've heard Trouble Every Day played on FMU these past days.

	12:14pm dan: Is one of the songs in the set gonna be Gordon Lightfoot’s “Black Day in July”?
	12:14pm Roberto: Mon oncle!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: L.O.T. Stanley.
	🛒 12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Watts 1965, my first riot!
	12:16pm chresti: My favorite part of Trouble, is the guitar.
	12:16pm StringOFperils: @chresti > Right on ! I was just marvelling at how great that guitar was even then.
	🛒 12:17pm WR: OMG! Second time i hear you play Zappa recently. !!!
	12:18pm chresti: StingO, such a groove!
	🛒 12:18pm Franco Twinkie: That guitar is not Frank. It is Elliot Ingber, AKA The Winged Eel Fingerling.
	12:19pm StringOFperils: Ahh. Still marvelling. That's 1966!
	12:19pm chresti: WR, I thought I'd heard it recently..
	🛒 12:19pm WR: I think BPN played Trouble recently. Unless I am mixing it up with My Guitar.... which Bob did play from 45.
	12:20pm dan: Early Steve Miller Band doesn’t get enough credit
	12:21pm solo mon: And now we have Space Force.
	12:21pm Roberto: I don't think Trouble has played Trouble, however.
	12:21pm marcury: Yep Whitey's going to the moon again!
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: marcury.
	🛒 12:23pm WR: I had a co- worker (Italian American) who would regularly chant Whitey on the Moon to call out bullshit.
	12:23pm Lane Gray: Howdy from both the Grays
	🛒 12:23pm Franco Twinkie: Send that motherfucker to the moon!
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: Mr. & Mrs. Gray.
	12:24pm Roberto: We done impeached that turd. Only done made him worse.
	🛒 12:25pm CHUCK ROAST: Hey, Unk. Country fried steak and mashed potatoes for lunch. Mmmmmmmm !
	🛒 12:25pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Whitey on the moon in the 20th century was the Pyramids of Egypt 2500 years ago
	12:25pm Lane Gray: I apologize for my absence. On our new schedule, I'm usually asleep
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Chuck.
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Missed ya, Lane.
	12:27pm Lane Gray: Work on your aim, the Mrs is guiding us down Interstate 70 every Friday. We're running late, and I'm winding down for bed
	12:29pm Martinibomb: Glad to be listening
	12:30pm Roberto: Chuck! How are the kitties?
	12:30pm Lane Gray: While you're walking a cat named Dog, we have a dog named for the queen of country music; a dog named Kitty.
	12:31pm holland oats: (we still don't have the votes)
	12:32pm solo mon: Tell it!
	12:32pm burke: We appreciate your bully pulpit, UM.
	12:32pm chresti: Send that circus peanut to the moon.
	12:33pm solo mon: Circus peanut! The most useless candy in the world.
	12:33pm Fuzzy: To the moon, Donny! You go -- we stay!
	12:33pm Lane Gray: What have you got against the moon, Chresti?
	🛒 12:33pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): I think guilt is more useful than shame, but it's an experience to learn from, not a place to dwell
	12:35pm chresti: You're right Lane, send it to a patch of space junk!
	12:35pm Jeff Golick: The problem with shame is that all of the wrong people feel it, and most of the people who don't feel it, should. Hi and go on, @Uncle Michael.
	12:36pm Michael 98145: Hello, Friends
	12:36pm solo mon: Shame is a demon, makes bad people double down on their mistakes. If you are self aware, you have reason to grow.
	12:36pm Dominick: Hello UM & all
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Jeff. Michael. Dominick.
	🛒 12:38pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, sorry to bum your trip, but I'm not white - but I'm living with a white girl.
	12:39pm Listening Out There: As a kid, I saw War on (I think) Flip Wilson's show on NBC TV. I remember hearing Dan Hicks and Hot Licks, the MJQ on his variety show. Great stuff...
	🛒 12:39pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Shame spurs harmful actions, while guilt accepts responsibility. And that can be useful, if it's a motivation for making amends. And as Franco suggests, a more useful headspace would be even better. What are some of those?
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure why I might be bummed by your non-whiteness, Franco.
	🛒 12:40pm Franco Twinkie: I love you Michael!
	12:40pm Michael 98145: we could all use some self-criticism
	12:41pm dan: Steve Priest of Sweet died yesterday.
	12:41pm Listening Out There: I beat myself regularly. And floss every couple days...
	12:41pm solo mon: Yes so hard to look at self, but it’s the only thing you really have control over.
	12:41pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M & y'all
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: Coel.
	12:42pm βrian: Love that railroad riff.
	12:42pm Lane Gray: George is smiling down. Our fucking president has no damn shame.
	12:43pm solo mon: @franco are you quoting X songs? Or was that just a co incidence?
	12:43pm StringOFperils: Was sort of anticipating (with dread) a mobilization of military force on the domestic front AFTER November, provided all things kept going south. Now I'm hoping this latest national shitstorm, having moved that up somewhat, will galvanize enough electoral opposition to dethrone uno who...but that is definitely the place to start moving beyond the torpor of shame and misdirected anger. And after that...???
	🛒 12:43pm Franco Twinkie: Er,yes.
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: I love you too, brother.
	12:44pm jmd: Hey UM! Talking book, perfect record. Nice play.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: jmd.
	12:45pm chresti: Haha LOT
	🛒 12:46pm Franco Twinkie: What unites us is not skin color but a shared vision, I suspect.
	12:46pm StringOFperils: My fave Traffic LP.
	12:46pm Roberto: But Jim Bulgurwheat may live.
	12:47pm Dean: Wow, Traffic two days in a row on WFMU!
	12:47pm dan: “John Barleycorn Must Die”, Steve Winwood and Traffic’s magnum opus.
	12:48pm Uncle Michael: I don't know what I'd do without you people.
	🛒 12:48pm Brian in UK: Uncle Lane, I was wondering where you were, glad to see you and Mrs Gray are OK.
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Quick hi, busy, love this Traffic! (When it came out, I was so impressed with the sax and flute, so "unusual". What did I know...)
	12:48pm coelacanth∅: nice. first traffic song i ever heard -as a child and i soon bought "on the road"
	12:49pm Listening Out There: Traffic > Blind Faith > Steve Winwood solo
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: Doc. BiUK.
	12:51pm dan: @doctorjazz What “John Barleycorn” showed me is that a hard rocking song doesn’t necessarily need a guitar.
	12:53pm βrian: It taught me there was a difference between maize and corn. Young me had no idea.
	12:53pm coelacanth∅: what about "nutrocker" by Emerson Lake & Palmer?
	12:53pm Dean: Traffic > Blind Faith > Stomu Yamashta's Go > Steve Winwood solo? Or is Go superior to BF?
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Dean.
	12:54pm johnk77: great, great show already for those not watching twitch @um is wearing mc5 shirt traffic sounded amazing live in the early seventies winwood 1 of the most talented live rock singers imho

	12:57pm doctorjazz: Amaizing!
	12:58pm Listener Bob in PGH: This Time Zone track hasn't aged a bit!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Bob.
	🛒 12:59pm Franco Twinkie: I was in Vietnam talking to some Brits and I mentioned corn, and this one guy looked at me totally baffled until one of his mates whispered 'maize' in his ear.
	12:59pm annie: man-o-manischewitz! busy morning! hinky dink time so soon??
	1:00pm dan: @johnk77 I was supposed to see Steve Winwood live with Steely Dan this summer but it was postponed to next year.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: annie.
	1:00pm annie: UM!
	1:01pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:03pm dan: In some alternate universe, Blind Faith would be a Led Zeppelin style phenomenon that would last for 30-40 years and have scores of albums.
	🛒 1:04pm listener 126464: Uncle Michael great selections right from the start w/fresh RTJ4. I'm not turning too many lights on either lately.
	1:05pm johnk77: @dan in that universe the music doc beware of mr. baker would be huge:>
	1:05pm Dean: What does that tell us about the band 400 Blows? I mean, it's only three guys.
	1:06pm coelacanth∅: (they did write a couple a songs) and yes they were Great!
	🛒 1:06pm Franco Twinkie: Or 100 Flowers?

	1:07pm StringOFperils: Or 10,000 Maniacs
	1:07pm StringOFperils: Or MDC (Million Dead Cops)
	1:07pm Dean: When I saw 10,000 Maniacs live, there were only 9,937 people on stage.
	1:07pm Listener Bob in PGH: I live next to a town called Rankin. I'm looking forward to the day when I meet a guy from there by the name of Roger.
	🛒 1:08pm Alvy Singer: Hey Uncle Michael, Have you read Chuck Negron's book, Three Dog Nightmare? Boy was he one helluva junkie.
	1:08pm Marie: Yes, please get silly!
	🛒 1:09pm CHUCK ROAST: JB must die was supposed to be Steve's first solo album.
	1:09pm Listening Out There: Is it more important to be silly than stupid? Or is it more important to be stupid than silly? I dunno...
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Guido. Alvy. Marie.
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: good thing i don't have to have a favorite traffic album.
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: can't i be silly AND stupid?
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: I have not read it, Alvy.
	🛒 1:12pm Franco Twinkie: I'm with you Michael, let the nonsense prevail. I mean shit, we ALL have the TV on constantly. We are drowning in pain. Let's lighten up already!
	1:13pm chresti: I like to be goofy sometimes, I've heard.
	1:13pm Dominick: Oh yes!
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Franco, I don't have the tv (news) on at ALL. I can't. I wouldn't cope.
	1:14pm doctorjazz: Satch!
	1:14pm Listening Out There: Huh. You can get a copy of Three Dog Nightmare on eBay for $410...
	1:15pm dan: Piano Man, The Guitar Man and Mr. Tambourine Man will probably make appearances on the set.

	1:16pm doctorjazz: I never have TV news on...doesn't matter, bombarded by news apps, Times, Facebook, all the time.
	1:16pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Finally out of the meeting. I seem to have missed a lot.
	🛒 1:16pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti and myself are doing The Sloppy Pajama Dance as the world spin out of control. We would self-combust if we didn't.
	🛒 1:16pm listener 126464: pajamas!
	🛒 1:16pm CHUCK ROAST: I'll hold out for Ocarina Man
	1:17pm Uncle Michael: Sloppy Pajamas was the name of Doug's first band in high school.
	🛒 1:18pm Franco Twinkie: Fuck those guys. Where the hell is The Pancake Man?
	1:18pm chresti: I watched the Hollywood protesting last Monday and Tuesday, with the sound muted and ridiculous captions on, mainly to see if Griffith Park would catch on fire.
	1:21pm Dean: Just rescheduled an event that would have caused me to miss the last hour of today's show. The world isn't that bad after all.
	🛒 1:21pm Brian in UK: There is a case for the Intro and the Outro.
	1:22pm StringOFperils: I'd vote for you Dean. You get important things done.
	🛒 1:22pm Franco Twinkie: Yes Brian, Brainiac on banjo!
	1:22pm Hopey Sockmonkey: My partner & I are both brown people living in very inhospitable times. I've stopped watching the news and we both have just been listening to lots and lots of music. Seems like all we can do right now to stay (mostly) sane.
	1:22pm Uncle Michael: I'm very pleased, Dean.
	1:22pm doctorjazz: Hines! Fatha! (Now, Hines and Armstrong together...)
	1:23pm Listening Out There: Thanks to video, UM, we now know that HDT is not a drug free workplace...
	1:23pm chresti: LUCAS
	1:25pm Uncle Michael: no, L.O.T.?

	1:27pm Dean: Billy Joel's Piano Man? Bread's Guitar Man?
	1:28pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Absolutely, Franco! You got your priorities right :)
	🛒 1:29pm Franco Twinkie: iAndele pues!
	1:33pm dan: In an alternate universe, Don Crown would be as world famous as Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett or Nat King Cole.
	1:34pm Dave Sewelson: Group Vocals are the best

	1:35pm unpopularfred: I'm behind that band as chorus set

	1:36pm Dominick: Yes!
	1:36pm dan: A prediction that actually came true.
	1:36pm StringOFperils: David Gates. Ooof...I bin shot.
	1:37pm Dean: I was joking, for crying out loud.

	1:48pm Aaron in Minneapolis: I am an excellent hoochie talent
	1:49pm StringOFperils: Picture of this JOY single label on You Tube > MALA label
	1:50pm Uncle Michael: ah...a clue
	1:51pm Guido from Cologne: The Gramophone Company in UK and Victor in the USA were both related to Emil Berliner. That's why Nipper is a trademark of both.
	1:52pm Dean: Hrrrm...let me make a few phone calls.
	1:53pm Jeff Golick: Basically the same arrangement as the Elvis version. Reed was first?
	🛒 1:53pm CHUCK ROAST: Will we overlook Gitarzan, that gitar man ?
	1:54pm StringOFperils: Actually, I retract that...the audio's right, but that MALA single depicted isn't that song. That's confusing.
	1:54pm Aaron in Minneapolis: If you play any Billy Joel, tense words will be exchanged
	1:56pm Jeff Golick: I mean, Elvis aped that whole performance.
	1:56pm StringOFperils: Neither Watermelon Man nor Animal Man have manifested yet.

	1:57pm burke: Nor sitar man !
	1:58pm StringOFperils: Please don't play Ape Man. I want to keep liking that song, but it gets harder every year.

	2:02pm StringOFperils: Bass clarinet solo !
	2:04pm StringOFperils: Dean...isn't that the tracklist from Shatner's TRANSFORMED MAN album?
	🛒 2:04pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): StringOFperils: [laughing about Ape Man!]
	2:04pm StringOFperils: or something like it ?
	2:05pm unpopularfred: for half a second there, I thought this was going to Caravan as well
	2:05pm doctorjazz: Today is a Bandcamp no fee day (musicians get the whole payment). Many labels will donate to organizations promoting racial justice (got a message from Dave Douglas, he's donating). Just sayin...
	2:07pm chresti: Thanks doc, I was about to mention that, too.
	🛒 2:08pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): doctorjazz, thanks for the reminder!

	2:20pm Uncle Michael: Kevin.
	2:20pm Uncle Michael: necks are overrated
	2:22pm βrian: Little Necks can be tasty, though.
	2:22pm Listening Out There: This Gerry Monroe is great...
	2:22pm Uncle Michael: yum
	2:22pm Uncle Michael: Gerry is great. I've probably played "Sally" before.
	2:23pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I'm in east hollywood, chresti. (otherwise known as Little Armenia/Thai Town)
	2:23pm StringOFperils: Had to look up Little Necks. I'm so landlocked.

	2:24pm βrian: I was a landlocked kid when I discovered HoJo's fried clams.
	2:24pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oooooo, Outta Space! One of my fave Billy Preston tracks. Turn it UP.
	2:24pm dan: Billy Preston needs to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
	2:25pm Uncle Michael: fried clams without bellies are BOGUS
	2:26pm doctorjazz: I believe Staten Island is actually the most diverse place in NYC (though you'd never know it when you think of the stereotypical Staten Islanders).
	2:26pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Thank you, coelacanth0. Much appreciated.
	2:26pm coelacanth∅: yeah why wasn't Billy inducted when John, George, Paul & Ringo were?!
	2:26pm Listener Gregory: For some reason, "my little hapa haole hula girl" sounded like "my little alcoholic girl" to me. I had to finish lunch before I could report that, though.
	2:26pm StringOFperils: Outta Space and Dr.John's Right Place Wrong Time are melded into one song in my mind for temporal/musical reasons.
	2:27pm chresti: Hopey, I used to live on Kenmore x Hollywood blvd.
	2:27pm StringOFperils: @coel > 3 guesses.
	2:27pm Fuzzy: Reminds me of going to Horseneck Beach when I was like 7 years old.

	2:29pm Ghetto Pastrami: Sometimes you have to just KTF
	2:31pm Listening Out There: Great observation on early 70s music. Some think that decade was the best one for American movies...
	2:31pm coelacanth∅: SOp because he wasn't actually a member of the beatles. there i don't need my other 2 guesses. by the way -it was a joke.

	2:38pm chresti: I know Zankou, although we had moved by then. I work up the street in Griffith Park, Hopey.
	🛒 2:39pm Franco Twinkie: I like that Zankou, Hopey. I think it broke away from the family empire after a murder or some such tragic shit. I would always go there after a run to Home Depot.
	2:40pm Jeff Golick: Thanks for the show, @UM. I gotta reboot my computer for reasons that I hope will be apparent at the top of the hour.
	2:41pm coelacanth∅: oh man i Love baby blue

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from June 5, 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.

	🛒 12:09pm Franco Twinkie: Guilt is not a useful emotion, so let's dispense with the concept and try and occupy a more constructive head space. And how shall I say, rip it up and boogie down?
	12:09pm solo mon: Hi uncle, hey Granny, Doug! Chresti! String! And all you other sweeties.
	12:10pm chresti: Hi solo mon!

	12:13pm solo mon: Ahh this song!
	12:13pm Roberto: Zappa was always ahead of the curve.
	12:13pm StringOFperils: Let's be Frank.
	12:13pm chresti: A little break from the heat for a couple days, solo.
	12:13pm solo mon: Frankly my dear,
	12:13pm Uncle Michael: Roberto.
	12:13pm Stanley: Yay Uncle! I'm surprised this is the first time I've heard Trouble Every Day played on FMU these past days.
	12:13pm Listening Out There: Frank knows. OK, "knew"...
	12:14pm dan: Is one of the songs in the set gonna be Gordon Lightfoot’s “Black Day in July”?
	12:14pm Roberto: Mon oncle!
	12:14pm Uncle Michael: L.O.T. Stanley.
	🛒 12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Watts 1965, my first riot!
	12:16pm chresti: My favorite part of Trouble, is the guitar.
	12:16pm StringOFperils: @chresti > Right on ! I was just marvelling at how great that guitar was even then.
	🛒 12:17pm WR: OMG! Second time i hear you play Zappa recently. !!!
	12:18pm chresti: StingO, such a groove!
	🛒 12:18pm Franco Twinkie: That guitar is not Frank. It is Elliot Ingber, AKA The Winged Eel Fingerling.
	12:19pm StringOFperils: Ahh. Still marvelling. That's 1966!
	12:19pm chresti: WR, I thought I'd heard it recently..
	🛒 12:19pm WR: I think BPN played Trouble recently. Unless I am mixing it up with My Guitar.... which Bob did play from 45.
	12:20pm dan: Early Steve Miller Band doesn’t get enough credit
	12:21pm solo mon: And now we have Space Force.
	12:21pm Roberto: I don't think Trouble has played Trouble, however.
	12:21pm marcury: Yep Whitey's going to the moon again!
	12:22pm Uncle Michael: marcury.
	🛒 12:23pm WR: I had a co- worker (Italian American) who would regularly chant Whitey on the Moon to call out bullshit.
	12:23pm Lane Gray: Howdy from both the Grays
	🛒 12:23pm Franco Twinkie: Send that motherfucker to the moon!
	12:23pm Uncle Michael: Mr. & Mrs. Gray.
	12:24pm Roberto: We done impeached that turd. Only done made him worse.
	🛒 12:25pm CHUCK ROAST: Hey, Unk. Country fried steak and mashed potatoes for lunch. Mmmmmmmm !
	🛒 12:25pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Whitey on the moon in the 20th century was the Pyramids of Egypt 2500 years ago
	12:25pm Lane Gray: I apologize for my absence. On our new schedule, I'm usually asleep
	12:25pm Uncle Michael: Chuck.
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: Missed ya, Lane.
	12:27pm Lane Gray: Work on your aim, the Mrs is guiding us down Interstate 70 every Friday. We're running late, and I'm winding down for bed
	12:29pm Martinibomb: Glad to be listening
	12:30pm Roberto: Chuck! How are the kitties?
	12:30pm Lane Gray: While you're walking a cat named Dog, we have a dog named for the queen of country music; a dog named Kitty.
	12:31pm holland oats: (we still don't have the votes)
	12:32pm solo mon: Tell it!
	12:32pm burke: We appreciate your bully pulpit, UM.

	12:33pm solo mon: Circus peanut! The most useless candy in the world.
	12:33pm Fuzzy: To the moon, Donny! You go -- we stay!
	12:33pm Lane Gray: What have you got against the moon, Chresti?
	🛒 12:33pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): I think guilt is more useful than shame, but it's an experience to learn from, not a place to dwell
	12:35pm chresti: You're right Lane, send it to a patch of space junk!
	12:35pm Jeff Golick: The problem with shame is that all of the wrong people feel it, and most of the people who don't feel it, should. Hi and go on, @Uncle Michael.
	12:36pm Michael 98145: Hello, Friends
	12:36pm solo mon: Shame is a demon, makes bad people double down on their mistakes. If you are self aware, you have reason to grow.
	12:36pm Dominick: Hello UM & all
	12:38pm Uncle Michael: Jeff. Michael. Dominick.
	🛒 12:38pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, sorry to bum your trip, but I'm not white - but I'm living with a white girl.
	12:39pm Listening Out There: As a kid, I saw War on (I think) Flip Wilson's show on NBC TV. I remember hearing Dan Hicks and Hot Licks, the MJQ on his variety show. Great stuff...
	🛒 12:39pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Shame spurs harmful actions, while guilt accepts responsibility. And that can be useful, if it's a motivation for making amends. And as Franco suggests, a more useful headspace would be even better. What are some of those?
	12:39pm Uncle Michael: I'm not sure why I might be bummed by your non-whiteness, Franco.
	🛒 12:40pm Franco Twinkie: I love you Michael!
	12:40pm Michael 98145: we could all use some self-criticism
	12:41pm dan: Steve Priest of Sweet died yesterday.
	12:41pm Listening Out There: I beat myself regularly. And floss every couple days...
	12:41pm solo mon: Yes so hard to look at self, but it’s the only thing you really have control over.
	12:41pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M & y'all
	12:42pm Uncle Michael: Coel.
	12:42pm βrian: Love that railroad riff.
	12:42pm Lane Gray: George is smiling down. Our fucking president has no damn shame.
	12:43pm solo mon: @franco are you quoting X songs? Or was that just a co incidence?
	12:43pm StringOFperils: Was sort of anticipating (with dread) a mobilization of military force on the domestic front AFTER November, provided all things kept going south. Now I'm hoping this latest national shitstorm, having moved that up somewhat, will galvanize enough electoral opposition to dethrone uno who...but that is definitely the place to start moving beyond the torpor of shame and misdirected anger. And after that...???
	🛒 12:43pm Franco Twinkie: Er,yes.
	12:44pm Uncle Michael: I love you too, brother.
	12:44pm jmd: Hey UM! Talking book, perfect record. Nice play.
	12:45pm Uncle Michael: jmd.
	12:45pm chresti: Haha LOT
	🛒 12:46pm Franco Twinkie: What unites us is not skin color but a shared vision, I suspect.

	12:46pm Roberto: But Jim Bulgurwheat may live.
	12:47pm Dean: Wow, Traffic two days in a row on WFMU!

	12:48pm Uncle Michael: I don't know what I'd do without you people.
	🛒 12:48pm Brian in UK: Uncle Lane, I was wondering where you were, glad to see you and Mrs Gray are OK.
	12:48pm doctorjazz: Quick hi, busy, love this Traffic! (When it came out, I was so impressed with the sax and flute, so "unusual". What did I know...)
	12:48pm coelacanth∅: nice. first traffic song i ever heard -as a child and i soon bought "on the road"
	12:49pm Listening Out There: Traffic > Blind Faith > Steve Winwood solo
	12:49pm Uncle Michael: Doc. BiUK.
	12:51pm dan: @doctorjazz What “John Barleycorn” showed me is that a hard rocking song doesn’t necessarily need a guitar.
	12:53pm βrian: It taught me there was a difference between maize and corn. Young me had no idea.
	12:53pm coelacanth∅: what about "nutrocker" by Emerson Lake & Palmer?
	12:53pm Dean: Traffic > Blind Faith > Stomu Yamashta's Go > Steve Winwood solo? Or is Go superior to BF?
	12:54pm Uncle Michael: Dean.
	12:54pm johnk77: great, great show already for those not watching twitch @um is wearing mc5 shirt traffic sounded amazing live in the early seventies winwood 1 of the most talented live rock singers imho

	12:57pm doctorjazz: Amaizing!
	12:58pm Listener Bob in PGH: This Time Zone track hasn't aged a bit!
	12:59pm Uncle Michael: Bob.
	🛒 12:59pm Franco Twinkie: I was in Vietnam talking to some Brits and I mentioned corn, and this one guy looked at me totally baffled until one of his mates whispered 'maize' in his ear.
	12:59pm annie: man-o-manischewitz! busy morning! hinky dink time so soon??
	1:00pm dan: @johnk77 I was supposed to see Steve Winwood live with Steely Dan this summer but it was postponed to next year.
	1:00pm Uncle Michael: annie.
	1:00pm annie: UM!
	1:01pm Guido from Cologne: Hello Michael!
	1:03pm dan: In some alternate universe, Blind Faith would be a Led Zeppelin style phenomenon that would last for 30-40 years and have scores of albums.
	🛒 1:04pm listener 126464: Uncle Michael great selections right from the start w/fresh RTJ4. I'm not turning too many lights on either lately.
	1:05pm johnk77: @dan in that universe the music doc beware of mr. baker would be huge:>
	1:05pm Dean: What does that tell us about the band 400 Blows? I mean, it's only three guys.
	1:06pm coelacanth∅: (they did write a couple a songs) and yes they were Great!
	🛒 1:06pm Franco Twinkie: Or 100 Flowers?

	🛒 1:08pm Alvy Singer: Hey Uncle Michael, Have you read Chuck Negron's book, Three Dog Nightmare? Boy was he one helluva junkie.
	1:08pm Marie: Yes, please get silly!
	🛒 1:09pm CHUCK ROAST: JB must die was supposed to be Steve's first solo album.
	1:09pm Listening Out There: Is it more important to be silly than stupid? Or is it more important to be stupid than silly? I dunno...
	1:10pm Uncle Michael: Guido. Alvy. Marie.
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: good thing i don't have to have a favorite traffic album.
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: can't i be silly AND stupid?
	1:11pm Uncle Michael: I have not read it, Alvy.
	🛒 1:12pm Franco Twinkie: I'm with you Michael, let the nonsense prevail. I mean shit, we ALL have the TV on constantly. We are drowning in pain. Let's lighten up already!
	1:13pm chresti: I like to be goofy sometimes, I've heard.
	1:13pm Dominick: Oh yes!
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Franco, I don't have the tv (news) on at ALL. I can't. I wouldn't cope.
	1:14pm doctorjazz: Satch!

	1:50pm Uncle Michael: ah...a clue
	1:51pm Guido from Cologne: The Gramophone Company in UK and Victor in the USA were both related to Emil Berliner. That's why Nipper is a trademark of both.

	2:26pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Thank you, coelacanth0. Much appreciated.
	2:26pm coelacanth∅: yeah why wasn't Billy inducted when John, George, Paul & Ringo were?!
	2:26pm Listener Gregory: For some reason, "my little hapa haole hula girl" sounded like "my little alcoholic girl" to me. I had to finish lunch before I could report that, though.
	2:26pm StringOFperils: Outta Space and Dr.John's Right Place Wrong Time are melded into one song in my mind for temporal/musical reasons.
	2:27pm chresti: Hopey, I used to live on Kenmore x Hollywood blvd.
	2:27pm StringOFperils: @coel > 3 guesses.

	2:38pm chresti: I know Zankou, although we had moved by then. I work up the street in Griffith Park, Hopey.
	🛒 2:39pm Franco Twinkie: I like that Zankou, Hopey. I think it broke away from the family empire after a murder or some such tragic shit. I would always go there after a run to Home Depot.
