Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Options

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.

Appreciating the feedback.
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:25pm Rich in Washington:

i would say it's definitely brighter than most shows on the stream, but not tinny by any means. It definitely is more apparent on my Sony MDR-7056s than my speakers here at work, which are really bass heavy usually. It's actually a bookshelf stereo system which I've plugged my computer into.
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:25pm Brian in UK:

hey, Hopey Sockmonkey, howdy, Rich—best wishes for your wife, may she have a boring recovery. <3 Howdy, UM! Dig this Arthur Brown, always fun to visit his Crazy World!

Not yet, melinda.

@Granny Spicy Tuna @1:19: She's doing great AND bored silly. Our joint binge immediately following her return home was the TV series M*A*S*H, from the very first episode, if that tells you how bored she was/is.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:30pm pacific standard simon:

I've been binging M*A*S*H too! It's invalid comfort food.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:31pm Uncle Michael:

How' the sound now? Is it nice?
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:31pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

Rich in Wash.: ah, yes, what we resort to! But a friend of mine always wishes folx a boring recovery, and i thought that was probably a good idea. :)
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:32pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

sounding wonderful from this angle, UM!
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:32pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

this entire set is pleasing me plenty!
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:33pm Brian in UK:

@LOT it was a bit like a club around that time. Everyone knew each other and reality was somewhere out there.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:33pm Uncle Michael:

Thanks! I'm tweaking the mix a bit too, though.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:36pm melinda:

@Rich at least we have a plethora of electronic media options in current times.
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:37pm Rich in Washington:

@pacific standard simon: M*A*S*H works great since we both watched it growing up but it's also deals with patching people up. During a previous surgery, my wife had this really funny (in retrospect) painkiller induced delusion where she was in the 4077 and the doctors were ignoring her needs while playing cards in the other room, so watching it all again was weirdly healing for her.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:37pm pacific standard simon:

Honestly, I can't tell the diff in the sound, between the massive speakers I had in the '70s, and the ears I had in the '70s. Wouldn't even try.

@melinda: we did have one point where a storm had knocked out not only our internet, but our landline for a couple of days, which made my poor Coco's anxiety spike, since we live out in the boonies.

@Dan I agree. There was an interesting interview-by-proxy on Todd's show a few years ago, questions were sent to his daughter and she interviewed him while visiting for a holiday.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:09pm pacific standard simon:

Lou didn't care too much for for Doug's vocals, either -- he just didn't have much choice, since he'd pretty much blown out his own voice that summer.

The Del Pricks or The Del Prees, what is the consensus?

Hi Hinky Dinks! I've been lurking but not commenting.

Lawrence Welk: proof that there are no guilty pleasures.

Henry! Guy Lombardo!

@Franco Pricks is funnier though probably not the intention
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:20pm Rich in Washington:

@dan, melinda: I remember Yule getting fairly trashed again in the music press upon the release of VU in the late 80s, sort of deriding him as a Reed clone. I quite enjoyed Loaded, myself.

I remember having nightmares after seeing The Russians are Coming..
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:32pm pacific standard simon:

I make no pronouncements upon Doug Yule's interpretations -- just saying that Lou didn't like them. Then again, Lou could be an asshole.
  2:32pm dan:

Made For TV is Lou Reed if he didn't sing period.
Avatar 🛒 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:36pm KevinfromBayRidge:

@Chresti, that movie actually humanized, through comedy, the monolithic Ironmen. My first exposure to Alan Arkin too.
  2:36pm Dean:

A song about Richard Johnson and nobody picks up the pricks thread?

I happen to like Lou Reed's "singing", though.

The other thing I have been binging on is The Dick Van Dyke show. Everything that Carl Reiner ever did, including minor acting projects like The Russians Are Coming, is worth watching.

I like episode where Dick Van Dyke asked Carl Reiner if he wants a glass of water, and Carl replies: "No, I want a glass of dust."
