Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from August 9, 2019 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.

the first time i saw george clinton & p-funk was at disney land, and i ended up leaving after 3 1/2hrs as they were still playing. the other time i saw'm was a free show in atlanta, and after a couple hours the event folks turned the power off on them, and the band & clinton kept singing & clapping along with the crowd for the remainder of the song.
