Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from April 29, 2016 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.

Great segue outta Perhacs!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:12pm

i crack up thinking of what people's reaction to Linda Perhacs was then. "on the album cover she looks normal!"..."she CAN sing - what the hell is she thinking?"
