	12:02pm Yvang: Hi EFD and "Funk" people!
	12:02pm StringOFperils: ↳ Song: "mama told me not to come" by "bill lloyd" We were overdue for a new version of this
	12:03pm clarke: bill lloyd - or as i call him the man with 4 L's
	12:03pm efd: ↳ clarke @12:01 ooh, lucky you! (on both counts, heh)
	12:04pm Cecile: ↳ Song: "i wanna make you mine" by "delight" I can always count on you for a a fat, funky track that would sound great at a roller rink.
	12:04pm clarke: yes! looking for some Kasem=like banter, here!!
	12:04pm medson: Hola efd and all. Looking forward to this
	12:04pm efd: I have to say, it is extremely weird for me to be sitting here in the studio not trying to figure out what to play next.
	12:04pm SeanG: Hey Cecile, long time no see on the chat board!
	12:05pm prof.fuzz: clarkEEE medson. nycmusicnerd. rich. figgs. et al.

	12:06pm Cecile: ↳ Carmichael @12:06 Hiya, Carm!
	12:06pm Carmichael: ↳ efd @12:05 Ha ha, a dedication to a god damn dead dog!
	12:07pm Carmichael: Heya Cecile, how ya been?
	12:07pm Ike: ↳ Carmichael @12:06 The DJ definitely doesn't like coming out of a fucking uptempo record when he has to talk about a fucking dog dying.
	12:07pm Van: Howdy EFD!
	12:07pm SeanG: ↳ Cecile @12:06 yep always good to see you on the chat board
	12:07pm Cecile: Good. I hope to retire next year, and i am still in a kpop vortex.
	12:08pm Handy Haversack: efd! All the 2022 other letters! We hurried home so as not to miss this much-anticipated show! Lemme just dish out the rotis, one sec ...
	12:08pm Cecile: ↳ SeanG @12:07 Thanks, Sean!
	12:08pm prof.fuzz: handYYYY
	12:08pm clarke: "her little puppydog" - who wrote this shit??
	12:09pm Cecile: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:08 I'm getting banh mi and iced coffee delivered. It's my Friday today.

	12:09pm efd: whoops, just realized I forgot to add the title at the top of this set: Favorite various artist compilations of 2022!
	12:10pm Carmichael: ↳ Cecile @12:07 I am going between April and June. Pretty excited about it!
	12:10pm efd: ↳ efd @12:09 (you all probably figured that out already)
	12:10pm Cecile: ↳ SeanG @12:09 I came up in glam rock and it scratches so many of those itches.
	12:10pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:08 A Tandy Corporation
	12:10pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Good morning! 56 degrees and sunny in San Jose and I'm having pie for breakfast.
	12:10pm Cecile: ↳ Carmichael @12:10 I'm going to announce in June, and leave at the end of the year, hopefully.
	12:11pm clarke: you know the way, lizzie!
	12:11pm tadpoles: Looking forward to being musically educated...thanks EFD.
	12:12pm radioronan: Looking forward to these selections! Always amazed you can get narrow down & get most into one show.
	12:14pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @12:01 think of these first 45 minutes or so as a hyperextended Kompilation Korner!
	12:14pm efd: ↳ radioronan @12:12 It's not easy!
	12:14pm Don in Tampere: Hi EFD and listeners! Just got back to Tampere from Christmas in Frankfurt, so this is my first WFMU show in several days - and of course it sounds good!
	12:15pm efd: ↳ Don in Tampere @12:14 Welcome back, Don!
	12:15pm Cecile: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH this is Korean. Awesome. I would like it if he were from next door, though.
	12:15pm clarke: figgs diggs!!
	12:17pm efd: ↳ Cecile @12:15 you can't escape it!
	12:17pm clarke: Bagpipe has been know to dance a jig to this.
	12:17pm Handy Haversack: He's moping from being hurried home at the end of errands so we could make the show. I'm sure he'll perk up for the top 5, though!
	12:18pm Cecile: ↳ efd @12:17 Thanks for kpop boy bands (my preference) being shit the first part of the year, I discovered a lot of Japanese and Korean dance-pop. Way better than the tiny amount of views and streams they get.
	12:18pm Handy Haversack: It was WFMU night in Brooklyn yesterday -- we ran into Daniel Blumin and Nate K while out and about!
	12:18pm clarke: he's just playin' ya, handy
	12:22pm clarke: it was written in 60's fo'sho
	12:23pm clarke: BUT 3 Dog Night had a hit widdit in the 70's
	12:24pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD and friends! Oh I do enjoy a lovely countdown.
	12:24pm efd: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:24 That's good, because you're getting FOUR (4) of them!
	12:24pm clarke: jaaack
	12:25pm Cecile: You know, the J5 covered I Betcha from Funkadelic less than a month after it came out.
	12:25pm greg from montreal: Great show!
	12:25pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack! We went to see Tom O. last night in Brooklyn, and you were spoken of fondly by all parties.
	12:25pm prof.fuzz: "Today's show is brought to you by the letters E, F, and D, and the numbers 1 through 10..."
	12:26pm Kick out the Jams Joe: Hey Evan & gang
	12:26pm simon&morphe': Sitting here with Easy Going Sugar Sweet (except when not)11.5 Y/O Simon +> a both a listening.. a both grooving .. sitting so doing the Grooving Pigeon head thing ... not to be confused with the White Man Over Bite Pogo Dance ...
	12:26pm Cecile: I looked it up for my own delectation, and both Randy Newman's and 3DN's cover came out in 1970. I can't tell when the song was written because I am lazy and need to be something else.
	12:27pm Dano59: That 1970 tribute with Bill Lloyd is pretty great. I was a nascent, embryonic music fan then.
	12:27pm prof.fuzz: wow! a cherry red release on this this comp list. who wudda thunk it???
	12:28pm clarke: now, yer just plain bein' mean, Prof!!
	12:28pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:27 lollllll
	12:28pm Dano59: this is Cherry Red safe space
	12:29pm clarke: fair enough.
	12:29pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:28 cherry red is doing the buddha's work, clarkEEE. mucho respect.
	12:30pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:25 Thanks Handy! Hopefully all tomorrow's parties too.
	12:30pm clarke: "COMING IN AT NUMBER ONE...." - we need to hear you hit the post!!
	12:30pm Dano59: lisa's on a couple of these Jem comps. do they have Britta Phillips? that would be so meta.
	12:31pm Kick out the Jams Joe: Cool version of Baba
	12:31pm Handy Haversack: Hand-me-down gowns all around, Jack! 91.9 is delayed compared to the stream, which is not what I'm used to!
	12:32pm efd: I keep forgetting that just because I have all the songs planned out doesn't mean I don't need to actually cue them up!
	12:32pm Figgsrock: This Jem/Pt comp is so good. I ordered a CD copy with the Xmas gift card I got two weeks ago.
	12:32pm simon&morphe': ↳ Handy Haversack @12:31 7 SEC DELAY in case Andy does show up and says inappropriate things ....
	12:33pm clarke: these records aren't going to play themselves!!
	12:34pm efd: ↳ clarke @12:33 apparently not!
	12:35pm clarke: (sometimes, tho...)
	12:35pm Dano59: rage against the machine efd! AI is destroying art as we speak
	12:35pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:33 ... unless ... !
	12:35pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:33 the EFDbot technology is not yet up to the challenge...
	12:35pm clarke: right-o mate!
	12:37pm clarke: #2!!
	12:38pm clarke: big post coming up....
	12:38pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "library book" by "the faders" in addition to this being a banging tune, it's message is so 2022 appropriate. hell yeah!
	12:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:38 NERD!!!!
	12:39pm Dano59: played in a 1979 tribute back in ... 2009. and did 1981 2 years later. Then the concept kinda faded away
	12:39pm prof.fuzz: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:38 *its
	12:39pm clarke: this is handy's temporary theme for the Floating Bookmobile.
	12:40pm clarke: FuZZZ almost fainted, just then.
	12:41pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:40 wut? did i miss something? why am i on the floor???
	12:41pm clarke: cherry red played
	12:41pm herb.nyc: “Library book”? Nice song. (And I got Yungblud’s “weird” cd from Seward Pk library today. Uh, wnyc approved)
	12:42pm clarke: nice post!!
	12:43pm Handy Haversack: Variendipity!
	12:43pm clarke: doo!
	12:44pm Will thee Sound Guy: Good Afternoon efd and all!!
	12:44pm Dano59: Sarah Records goes farther back ... got heavily into that whole '80s Bristol. thing this year
	12:45pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @12:44 yeah, I got tongue tied! More like 30-40 years ago!
	12:45pm Andreas: Glad you've found a vinyl you liked in my home city.
	12:45pm Glistener MW: This is incredible! I must find this Playground Noises comp
	12:45pm clarke: a sarah re-visit is in my cards as well, dano
	12:45pm Handy Haversack: "Geheimnis Music Productions is extremely happy to present to you the follow-up of the most successful "Playground Noises" compilation. After 1 year of research, "Playground Noises 2" consists of 13 hard-to-find tracks of the 80's post punk/new wave/synth genre from bands and artists from New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, France, the U.K., The Netherlands, U.S.A. and former Yugoslavia. Some of them remained unreleased on vinyl up until now, while others reached a broader audience, although all of them went under the radar during their time and were re-discovered through the internet days, the last 15 years."
	12:45pm clarke: mornin' willllburrr
	12:47pm Handy Haversack: Well, you can order it from the label in Greece. dirtynoise.gr...
	12:48pm clarke: Greece is the word (still!).
	12:48pm Don in Tampere: Going from Texas to California: isn't that what the 13th Floor Elevators did? Hope it works out better for this artist.
	12:49pm Mike Sin: Some great comps there! Again, Cherry Red can't be lauded enough for the non-stop release of such fantastic comps.
	12:49pm JetLee: Hi EFD and Everyone!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Mike Sin @12:49 or saturating the market
	12:50pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "revelation gazebos" by "orvy" orvy's had a great run of singles/eps over the past couple of years.
	12:51pm Dano59: For those going deep on Sarah: www.imdb.com...
	12:51pm clarke: yay Alicja!!! u made it!!
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:51 thnx Dano - been meaning ta seek that out!
	12:52pm efd: will we hear Alicja's voice again in this show? You'll have to stay tuned to find out!
	12:52pm clarke: the suspense is killing.. FuZZZ
	12:53pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:50 Indeed!
	12:55pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Evan and all other listeners!
	12:55pm Erin in TO: I'm late tuning in today, but loving what I've heard of the show so far, EFD. Thanks for sharing your faves!
	12:56pm efd: I guess the all-Toronto meeting just let out!
	12:56pm clarke: coconut fudge?
	12:56pm SeanG: coconut thug
	12:56pm javakid: cass mccombs channeling steve wynn
	12:56pm clarke: toronto is on some kinda delay
	12:57pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @12:56 hah I'm just recovering from a trip to visit family over the holidays, and slow getting myself started today
	12:57pm Mike Sin: ↳ clarke @12:49 re: "saturating the market" To what end? What money is Cherry Red raking in by releasing CD box sets in 2022? What could their margins possibly be on physical media?
	12:57pm clarke: torontans don't believe in Kompilations, maybe?
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Mike Sin @12:57 i merely jest.
	12:58pm Erin in TO: ↳ clarke @12:57 Toronto is nothing but a compilation, if we hate them, we hate ourselves...which now that I say it, doesn't sound impossible
	12:59pm clarke: again, i jest.
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Mike Sin @12:57 in doing the buddha's work, they earn karmic merit for each comp they release, and further merit is generated everytime someone listens to one of those comps. it's a perpetual karmic merit generating scheme, just like monumental buddhist statuary...
	1:00pm Erin in TO: ↳ clarke @12:59 Oh I know! The question is how much am I joking? ;)
	1:00pm clarke: yeah what he said!
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Handy!
	1:00pm love2laf: ↳ Erin in TO @12:58 Perhaps us Canadians believe in CanConpilations?
	1:01pm Erin in TO: Gotta get that CanCon in
	1:01pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:52 yeh I think it's a rent-to-view now
	1:01pm clarke: oh will have to try later, then, thnx.
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Andrew! How goes in Toronto? (Erin: same sentiment and question!)
	1:01pm Dano59: ↳ Dano59 @1:01 btw I'm ordering my chicory coffee today; thanks for the tips/offer
	1:02pm clarke: most certainly sir!
	1:02pm Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @1:00 I was told that if I know how to CanCompilate in a canoe, I move to the head of the immigration line!
	1:02pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @1:01 Momentarily panicked at the thought of no CanCon in my Best Ofs, but there will be some later.
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @1:01 hey Dano - did you try CDM website??
	1:03pm Dano59: ↳ love2laf @1:00 there's a pretty darned gwood power pop comp called PopCan. ... from the Last Great Power Power Pop Scare in the '90s.
	1:03pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 I've been on the east coast with family for the last week so I can't say for sure, but it's good to be back in TO
	1:03pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @1:02 Good, we don't have to ban you from the airwaves here then
	1:04pm B R M: Need a Lewsberg NYC show this year... argh. so good.
	1:04pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @1:02 yes! But I can also order it from big-boxers like Walmart (though that would be wrong)
	1:04pm Andrew in Toronto: @Handy The snow is mostly gone, but the windchill is nasty!
	1:04pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @1:03 haha!
	1:04pm clarke: oh - well - any way you can!
	1:04pm love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:02 You surely will, but don't forget to put the valuables in a waterproof bag in case you tip the canoe.
	1:05pm Carmichael: ↳ efd @1:02 Maybe some Lorne Greene or Slim Whitman ...
	1:05pm Dano59: Coffee CanCon
	1:05pm efd: ↳ B R M @1:04 from your lips...
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ love2laf @1:04 and tyler too!
	1:06pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:02 There's a lot of canoe-related skills to demonstrate
	1:06pm love2laf: ↳ Dano59 @1:03 Will have to seek that album out, cheers Dano59!
	1:06pm clarke: (i know handy appreciates a historic presdential ref)
	1:07pm clarke: what about the BoatMobile?
	1:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Erin in TO @1:06 I'm up for it! I have my own canoe and paddles, too, and Bagpipe has a canoe rug. Yes, clarke, well done!
	1:07pm simon&morphe': Out for the evening footie in Madrid .. fyi Crescent moon rise is quite beautiful Thanks efd and all !!!!
	1:07pm Dano59: I heard an Odds Xmas song recently on FMU so my CanCon seasonal coffers are full, for now. I should really sweep across some more FM stations on radio.garden after a dive into the CBC Northern Service in November. (First Nations music research)
	1:07pm clarke: = a Voltron Production, LLC
	1:08pm HyperDose: ↳ simon&morphe' @1:07 Have fun and be safe you two!
	1:08pm love2laf: I'm reminded of a joke from my youth, before the days of craft beer: What does making love in a canoe have in common with American beer? (FYI can't tell the full answer)
	1:08pm Karl Ward: EFD: you're sounding great here in deep Northeast NJ, where the only thing stronger than the flu is the FUNK
	1:09pm Dano59: groove is in the heart, for sure
	1:10pm Carmichael: ↳ love2laf @1:04 And Tyler too ...
	1:10pm Chris Hiatt: Hello from Sunny LA!
	1:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @1:08 Brought to you by the good folks at Molson!
	1:11pm clarke: that Tyler gets around!
	1:11pm Handy Haversack: No tour dates listed for Lewsberg on their site.
	1:11pm HyperDose: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:10 Drink! 🍺🥃🍸
	1:12pm clarke: oh - he will!
	1:12pm B R M: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:11 TELL ME ABOUT IT! 😫
	1:12pm JetLee: definitely not a weak single! haha
	1:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, efd and countdown crew!
	1:13pm Glistener MW: Incredible picks, EFD! <3
	1:13pm Erin in TO: Has anyone here seen Depeche Mode in the somewhat recent past? I never have and they're coming here in the spring. Tix are expensive though, wondering if they're worth it?
	1:14pm Dano59: That Perfect Motion LP is going for $10+ a track right now.
	1:15pm B R M: ↳ Erin in TO @1:13 We're thinking of bringing the kids up to Toronto specifically to see the DM show... its Spring Break in NYC schools and my 14 year wants to go, which, unheard of in our house.
	1:15pm full metal monkey: Hello everyone. Hope everyone had a great holiday x-mas.
	1:15pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @1:14 ouch! I didn't notice until now that they're not selling a digital version on bandcamp
	1:15pm prof.fuzz: hey FMM! see ya next thurs!
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: Hey, fmm! Happy New Year!
	1:16pm clarke: bar's over there, Haversack!
	1:16pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Hello efd. Happy New Year
	1:16pm full metal monkey: @handy happy new year
	1:16pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: Any word on Arlene? K8 will have to move some stuff around to come out to JC on Thu.
	1:17pm full metal monkey: @prof. Yeah we are looking forward to playing with you guys again.
	1:17pm Dano59: ↳ efd @1:15 thanks for non-Record-Store-Day FOMO, evan!
	1:18pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:16 no. our booking guy hasn't gotten a confirmation out of them, and is working on something else in the meantime. i'll let ya know as soon as i hear something. a few dates on this run have been tough to nail down.
	1:18pm clarke: so.. EP's go into the single file?
	1:18pm clarke: good luck FuZZZ!!
	1:19pm Figgsrock: All these Ted Leo Bandcamp Friday EPs have been excellent.
	1:19pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:18 for me they do. Not enough of 'em to have their own category.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" Ah, nice, great song.
	1:20pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:19 yeah, that one is kind of a proxy for the ones I never got to! (in addition to being great in its own right, of course!)
	1:20pm clarke: i have a few on my "album" list - which is a bit unfair.
	1:20pm full metal monkey: Stephanie. Yayyyy
	1:21pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:20 My hope is that all that activity leads to a whole LP in 2023.
	1:21pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:20 honestly the whole idea of comparing one piece or collection of music to another is pretty unfair! And yet, here we are.
	1:21pm Dano59: ↳ Figgsrock @1:19 I saw The Both about 7 years ago and have always loved Aimee and Ted whenever they do something individually
	1:21pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:21 agree!
	1:21pm clarke: here we are!! voice of herald!!
	1:22pm McGroovey: This Stephanie Seymour song was certainly one of my favorite songs of the year. I hope there are more coming from her.
	1:22pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" hey, I love this and give it more than a 3!
	1:22pm clarke: McG!!! howzit sir (afraid to ask, a bit)!!
	1:22pm love2laf: ↳ efd @1:21 I think of it as sharing what music really struck your heart and your ears this year. Highly personal, and enjoyable, and to be shared.
	1:22pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" This is a great song. And drums from Ira of Nada Surf!
	1:22pm Erin in TO: ↳ B R M @1:15 That would be an amazing family experience. I wish my family had gone to concerts together!
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:21 Well, we gotta fill up the afternoons somehow. clarke, where do interested parties find your list?
	1:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ efd @1:21 i see lists and shows like this as sharing favorites, rather than competition. the rankings are all personal pref. songs and records hit differently to different people and at different times. this is show and tell time.
	1:23pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @1:22 fair enough!
	1:23pm Dano59: I used to get "hey, how did you not have ____ on your list?" dammit, it's my best-of. Make your own.
	1:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ love2laf @1:22 well said
	1:23pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:23 1000% agree, Prof.
	1:24pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:23 i might be swayed to post it when EFD gets to albums
	1:24pm McGroovey: Also, Dummy. They were the only band whose T-shirt I bought this year, fwiw.
	1:25pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:23 but, PICKING your list is quite competitive - at least in my feeble mind.
	1:25pm Dano59: "YMMV" was a common qualifier on the old Idiot's Delight list.
	1:27pm clarke: for instance - i was faced with a choice at #20 - one band had made a full album, and one band had released a GREAT EP. i "had" to choose the album - because they are tougher to make!!
	1:27pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo! Just got off a meeting, so much great music here....
	1:28pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:25 yes, but you're really competing with yourself in that exercise.
	1:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Now I want to re-listen to this whole show and BUY ALL THE BANDCAMP.....
	1:28pm clarke: oh jeez - get better Ted!!
	1:28pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @1:27 fair enough. But great is great ...
	1:29pm B R M: Evan plays them Bandcamp sells them Evan ranks them Evan counts them down ... NUMBER ONEEEE!
	1:29pm clarke: and the unmentioned EP was by Movie Movie - which is GREAT!!
	1:29pm Dano59: I'm parsing my 'best-ofs' between new original work. and covers / tribute albums this year, since covers are a big part of my radio ouvre
	1:30pm Handy Haversack: OK, efd. Salt the wound! But you richly deserve it! We just listened to this single the other day!
	1:30pm Stephanie Seymour: Evan, thank you so much!! YOU ROCK! I'm having trouble posting my comment so I hope this goes through. xoxoxo
	1:31pm egould: I was at a hat Eyelids show too!
	1:31pm efd: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 It did! My pleasure, Stephanie!
	1:31pm full metal monkey: @stephanie. You rule
	1:31pm McGroovey: I agree with your #1!
	1:31pm Carmichael: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 Great song, Stephanie!
	1:32pm Dano59: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 you're on our radar(s) and our get lists now, Stephanie!
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @1:29 i respect that, D59, but covers loom small in me legend, these days. to each his own, heh heh.
	1:33pm clarke: eyelids!! yay!!!
	1:33pm Dano59: can't make an omelet without breaking a few oeuvres ... there, I spelt it right
	1:33pm Stephanie Seymour: Thank you all for your super sweet comments. It makes my heart happy. And yes, more music coming, hopefully in 2023 - trying to get my ass in gear, hahaha!
	1:34pm clarke: yeah, i should do a separate EP list - to be 'fair' (to be fair!)
	1:34pm Joe B: he efd and everyone
	1:35pm clarke: howdy!
	1:35pm love2laf: ↳ clarke @1:34 More CanCon!
	1:36pm Joe B: I first knew this cut from the Athens Inside Out soundtrack
	1:36pm clarke: saw Squalls at 688, circa 85
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: We had a sit-down while listening to the 45s shelf the other day and went over the shows we saw this year and picked out the highlights. And hotsie motsie, the Eyelids show at TV Eye was waaaaaaaaay up there. And we got to see efd! Chris from Eyelids and I made each other cry at the merch table talking about how long we'd waited for that NYC show and how much we'd all gone through before it happened.
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:34 do it!
	1:38pm B R M: ATHENS, GA INSIDE OUT memories... ❤️
	1:38pm Dano59: I've opened 6 bandcamp links since noon and Eyelids is down to 2 copies
	1:39pm Dano59: ↳ B R M @1:38 Dex holding up that f-hole guitar he found for 5 bucks is my favorite Athens Ga Inside-Out moment ... for any kid who ever wanted a guitar.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:37 next year, ha ha, i have already made this year's list. and boy am i tired.
	1:40pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 @Handy I may have caught COVID at that Eyelids show. Or at one of the three Yo La Tengo shows I went to the same week. BUT THEY WERE WORTH IT! maybe (Not sorry for shouting)
	1:41pm clarke: actually, i enjoy listening to full albums and 'pitting' them against each other. it is an end of year ritual.
	1:41pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @1:40 or the dream syndicate show
	1:41pm clarke: (instead of listening to xmas music)
	1:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @1:40 We got COVID at another much-delayed and fantastic TV Eye show -- Exbats!
	1:42pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:41 Way to overthink, Clarke. HA HA ...
	1:42pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @1:41 Wasn't that the same show as the Eyelids show?
	1:42pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:40 fair enough. our ep isn't officially released until 1/1/23 cough cough
	1:43pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "don't look down" by "the smithereens" The Smithereens have such an unmistakable sound. Within seconds of the song starting, I know exactly who I'm listening to!
	1:43pm HyperDose: I don't know about y'all but I'm team Diken over here!
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "don't look down" by "the smithereens" Who's on backing vocals?
	1:43pm clarke: oh next year -- you know i have a soft spot for january releases - oh, i done gone and said too much...
	1:43pm McGroovey: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:42 🤔☝️🤣 🤔
	1:43pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:43 IT'S PAT! Dennis revealed all when he was on my show a couple of weeks ago. It's Pat, sped up!
	1:44pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:43 diken said the other day that it is pat's voice sped up!!
	1:44pm clarke: what he said.
	1:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:43 Oh, RIGHT! I remember now!
	1:45pm clarke: AND COMING UP AT NUMBER ONE...
	1:47pm clarke: pretty much EVERY pro tape deck has a vari-speed dial.
	1:48pm Karl Ward: EFD mentions Texas, I am back on the board
	1:48pm prof.fuzz: hola karl!
	1:48pm Carmichael: Tay-Hoss
	1:48pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the kard, Karl! Up on the mantle, tempting the cats to mischief.
	1:49pm Figgsrock: The least shocking #1 on these countdowns!
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: howdy arabia
	1:49pm clarke: i was just remembering when Scharpling used to talk to his ABBA Boxset.
	1:50pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:49 haha, true!
	1:50pm McGroovey: I used my $100 Amzn Christmas card to buy a bunch of Cleaners From Venus things I've been meaning to get, plus the "new" Heavy Metal Kids thing that came out recently. But the Heavy Metal Kids thing was out of stock, so I had to settle for the first Heavy Metal Kids album. BUT THE POINT IS that the John Carter thing would have been a good thing to get around to, as part of that meaning-to-get-around-to-buying venture. But there's always next week. So far
	1:51pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:50 If it wasn't, I would have assumed you had been kidnapped by aliens and replaced by a clone!
	1:51pm Karl Ward: prof.fuzz: do you have a picture of the Fuzzmobile? I want to watch highway cams and spot it upon entry to NJ.
	1:51pm clarke: funny McG - i just did a Cleaners buying spree as Euclid had all those vinyl re-issues
	1:52pm clarke: ↳ Karl Ward @1:51 tim stole all the photos!
	1:52pm Figgsrock: ↳ McGroovey @1:50 I saved my cards until this show just in case there was something I needed to get.
	1:52pm Dano59: Cleaners is one of those acts I don't know how I ever lived without. reeeeallly inspiring from a home 4-track perspective too.
	1:53pm Karl Ward: I’m picturing a VW van absolutely covered in faux fur
	1:53pm clarke: yeah - how did i miss them??
	1:53pm Handy Haversack: I found Cleaners through WFMU!
	1:54pm clarke: i actually remember Cleaners from some comp back in the day - but, i guess it took a while to register w/me.
	1:54pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:52 they vacuumed tim out of back seat of the fuZZZmobile at the kia dealership on monday. hopefully he'll resurface soon.
	1:54pm Dano59: maybe I heard them here first too, but it might have been 'Crystals and Ronettes' after Ronnie died.
	1:55pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl Ward @1:51 red kia carnival with howdy arabian plates and a 63 on the back window. can't miss it.
	1:55pm clarke: gosh, i hope Tim's okay! KiA could stand for killed in action.
	1:56pm clarke: and we know tim gets a lot of ACTION!!
	1:56pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl Ward @1:53 way better than the real thing... ask me sometime about my 1969 VW bus that was the beef-skürts gig van...
	1:56pm Carmichael: Long time Martin Newell fan. Cleaners were a great band.
	1:56pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @1:51 Ten years ago I bought those CD comps of the early CfV albums, and they were great. So I gave them to my sister for Christmas that year because I thought she'd like them, and I'd forgotten to buy her a present. She's probably given all her CDs to Goodwill, as most normal people have done. I do know that she doesn't listen to CDs anymore. I haven't felt like being That Guy and asking for them back. I haven't gotten around to buying those again until now.
	1:57pm clarke: let's just hope you don't have to try to retrieve them at Goodwill!!
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: So smooth they had to post it twice!
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: McGroove, I haven't gotten any of the albums. Best place to start?
	1:58pm clarke: coming in at number 14 AND 13!!
	1:58pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:57 computer froze up!
	1:59pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @1:57 I have not tried that. I'd have to ask her where she took them. Or are they in a box in the basement under a leaking pipe? Oh, the humanity!
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:58 That's just because of how cool it is, efd!
	1:59pm Tommy in Neversink: I missed some of the top ten. Can you spin em again
	1:59pm clarke: oh the humanity!!
	2:00pm Carmichael: I keep all my physical media in case the digital songs get zapped (and they have!). I don't support iTunes music after the U2 fiasco, and I don't believe in paying for things twice.
	2:00pm efd: next year someone remind me to: a) include the album names on my playlist cheat sheet, and 1) pre-queue all the songs in the playlist system, not just the first half
	2:00pm Tommy in Neversink: Seriously , thank you for another year of great music EFD
	2:00pm Figgsrock: Oh yeah, Spray!!!
	2:01pm clarke: my Top 20 of '22 20 - Value Leaders - Remo Is A Dreamer 19 - Guided By Voices - Tremblers & Goggles By Rank 18 - Florist - Florist 17 - The Daylillies - From America 16 - Guided By Voices - Crystal Nuns Cathedral 15 - Simon Juliff - Stars 14 - Mountain Goats - Free Of Infinite Binding EP 13 - The Black Watch - The Neverland Of Spoken Things 12 - Robert Pollard - Our Gaze 11 - Silver Synthetic - Silver Synthetic 10 - Tony Jay - Hey Flower 09 - Michael Head & The Red Elastic - Dear Scott 08 - The Beths - Expert In A Dying Field 07 - Sam Stansfield - Extreme Falcon 06 - Alex G - God Save The Animals 05 - Ethanol Blend - Anodised 04 - Tom Barrett - You Are And You've Always Been 03 - The Bevis Frond - Little Eden 02 - Sloan - Steady 01 - Jeremy Scott - Bear Grease
	2:01pm Figgsrock: EFD, I downloaded the updated version when I finally got back to Brooklyn last night. A perfect closer to that album.
	2:02pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:58 I've never heard a Cleaners/Martin Newell record I didn't like. But maybe start with You've Never Had It So Good: The Best Of, and the Martin Newell/Andy Partridge collab The Greatest Living Englishman.
	2:04pm clarke: although My Back Wages is cool because it is a comp of newell's demos from early days...
	2:05pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:01 ah, I love The Beths and I bought a Bevis Frond LP this year but not that one.
	2:05pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @2:01 I haven't heard most of those, except for The Beths, Bevis Frond, Tom Barrett. GBV: I stopped paying attention when I realized I had 40 records by them. Enough!
	2:05pm Yetz: ↳ clarke @2:01 Nice list clarke. GBV on there twice as well as a Pollard LP I haven't even heard of!
	2:05pm Carmichael: ↳ McGroovey @2:02 Living With Victoria Grey is excellent, as is On Any Normal Monday.
	2:05pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @2:05 any bevis is friggin' great. which one??
	2:06pm clarke: ↳ Yetz @2:05 i maybe felt a bit guilty that no GBV records were on my last year's list, ha ha ha.
	2:06pm McGroovey: ↳ Carmichael @2:05 Yes, that's a good selection of songs also.
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Carmichael @2:05 Checking against what's available physically on Bandcamp ... Thanks for the list, clarke!
	2:07pm clarke: (actually, i just thought they really bounced back, this year)
	2:08pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:07 i was determined to not let a january release get overshadowed by later releases, this time.
	2:08pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "feels like a different thing" by "confidence man" Best false ending of the year too!
	2:09pm Carmichael: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:07 The older LPs are not on bandcamp, for some strange reason.
	2:09pm clarke: which will work in Prof's favor next year -- along with the EP list being separate, ha ha.
	2:09pm Hughie Considine: howdy Clarke!
	2:09pm Yetz: ↳ clarke @2:06 Oren Ambarchi is on my list twice this year ("Ghosted" and "Shebang", both great if you like that kind of thing) but not sure what my #1 is this year or if I even have one.
	2:09pm McGroovey: I used to get every Mountain Goats record that came out, but then he made one I didn't care for, and [see above, as for GBV]
	2:09pm clarke: Hugh!! i trust a cool yule was enjoyed?
	2:09pm getinthagroove: ↳ Song: "feels like a different thing" by "confidence man" Excellent tune! nods head cracks glow stick
	2:10pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @2:09 same McG - but their EP is really a comeback to the greatness that they had.
	2:11pm Hughie Considine: Twas a cool yule! Been great hangin' with my dudes home from college, renting DVDs from the library and eating loads of popcorn. Your list looks good. I screen-shotted it!
	2:11pm joe_rosevear: Hello, funky folks! Am late to the party, as usual.
	2:11pm Yetz: ↳ Yetz @2:09 Possibly "In These Times" by Makaya McCraven or "Gold" by Alabaster DePlume. I guess I didn't listen to a lot of pop/rock this year.
	2:12pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:09 whatever it takes, clarkEEE
	2:13pm clarke: in NO way am i anti-EP's - love 'em. they are just easier to put out than an LP
	2:15pm getinthagroove: ↳ Yetz @2:11 Makaya's album is in my top 25 for sure. Amazing stuff
	2:17pm clarke: we appreciate your efforts EFD!! thanks!!
	2:17pm Joe B: pre-chewed?
	2:18pm JetBoy of Astoria: Hello efd and all! Ready for the freer-form part of the show as we move away from the pre-typed set list…
	2:18pm clarke: alicja!! yass!!
	2:18pm Handy Haversack: I hate it when they fight. This album is great! And we managed to catch Sweet Knives at TV Eye.
	2:18pm Joe B: oh crap, forgot about this one!
	2:18pm love2laf: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:18 Pre-Free-Formed.
	2:19pm efd: ↳ Joe B @2:17 my tongue is pre-chewed!
	2:19pm clarke: it was foreshadowed heavily
	2:20pm clarke: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" our venn diagrams just touched.
	2:20pm Erin in TO: CanCon!
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ efd @2:19 nah it is my lack of hearing!
	2:20pm Nicepunk: Great set, EFD!
	2:21pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" hoping for a Sloan US tour in '23!
	2:21pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @2:20 oh yeah, duh!
	2:21pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:21 From my hometown of Halifax, no less
	2:21pm BH: shoutout to the orange cat on not needing to jump onto the end table as a prelude to jumping in his favorite chair. He can occasionally get in that chair from the floor.
	2:22pm clarke: wow, love halifax!! niiice!
	2:22pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" The guitar crunch is especially fine on this LP.
	2:22pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @2:21 I really want to get up to NS in the next year or two... went about 25 years ago and loved it, it's been too long!
	2:22pm clarke: all over it!
	2:23pm John L: Darn it, man. Filling up my Bandcamp cart and it's your fault!!!
	2:23pm efd: apparently we're in the "bands that start with S" portion of the countdown
	2:23pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:22 I love it there, I do miss it sometimes. Only been in Toronto since 2016
	2:23pm Yetz: ↳ BH @2:21 Way to go Orangey!
	2:23pm Handy Haversack: I hear it's the new Scotland!
	2:24pm clarke: you just want the scotch to be there!
	2:24pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:23 or as they like to call it, "proto-nova scotia"
	2:25pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:23 Because one Scotland wasn't enough!
	2:25pm clarke: never is!
	2:25pm getinthagroove: ↳ Song: "dealers" by "savak" Nice driving rocker
	2:26pm McGroovey: I want to get this Savak. I'm trying to control my acquisitions, though.
	2:27pm clarke: i hear ya.
	2:27pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:22 If you do go to Halifax, don't believe anyone who tells you John's Lunch is the best fish & chips in town. They are dirty liars
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: They have a 4 LP + 1 EP bundle, McGroove ...
	2:28pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @2:26 so was i when i bought all those CfV re-ish's.
	2:28pm BH: ↳ Yetz @2:23 He's a little out of his usual order today. He spent some afternoon time sleeping on the bed, got up, came back down, decided to rub up against my feet, and then got in that chair. Usually he ends up in the living room cat tree for afternoons.
	2:28pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:05 late reply: The Leaving of London.
	2:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:28 I saw that, yes. And I think I only have the first album, which is not in that bundle, I don't think. But
	2:29pm Yetz: Hey Handy, do you have any new holiday cocktail suggestions? I've been enjoying Brown Derbys but we are out of grapefruits.
	2:29pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @2:28 i don't have that one... (gets on computer grumbling)
	2:30pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @2:29 It's a great one.
	2:30pm prof.fuzz: ↳ McGroovey @2:26 the savak album is definitely in my imaginary top ten of 22 list
	2:30pm clarke: this album was hovering above my 20 like a drone over brad pitt's home
	2:32pm McGroovey: The Leaving of London: I listened to it in repeat for about a month when I first got it. Ten years ago
	2:32pm common: evan, all
	2:32pm clarke: i've heard it, but don't OWN it. hard to keep up.
	2:33pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:29 so was Little Eden out late enough in '21 to be in with '22? I'm not real strict about that. As for Bevis, I just glommed onto it when I saw it in the store. A reissue.
	2:33pm Dano59: i figured, as it's been said, any bevis frond is great
	2:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Yetz @2:29 Yetz, we have been enjoying Yellow Cocktails (1:1:1 gin : Suze : lemon juice). Also a Perfect BQE (2 ounces rye, 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth, 1/2 ounce dry vermouth, 1/4 ounce green Chartreuse, barspoon maraschino liqueur). Also, Jasmine (1 1/2 ounces gin, 3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice, 1/4 ounce Cointreau, 1/4 ounce Campari, Garnish: lemon twist). And if you can get good applejack, Princess Mary's Pride Cocktail 1 Part Applejack ½ Part Dry Vermouth ½ Part Dubonnet I am thinking of getting a split of sparkling wine and adding some to a Yellow to see if the King in Yellow can be a thing.
	2:34pm clarke: well the vinyl for Little Eden wasn't out until the new year
	2:34pm love2laf: Power is out, sadly I will miss the rest of the show. Darned weather! Will visit the archives another day, cheers efd and all the fellow funksters.
	2:35pm clarke: dang!!
	2:36pm Elena: Glad Can Con made it so far up the countdown!
	2:36pm Erin in TO: ↳ love2laf @2:34 Hope your power comes back soon!
	2:37pm Dano59: pulled the trigger on the Eyelids single. A much safer investment than a rando fat guy NFT.
	2:37pm prof.fuzz: #5 clarkEEE
	2:37pm clarke: numbaaah fiiiyev!!
	2:37pm Yetz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:34 Thanks! I'm out of Chartreuse, which is a bit hard to find right now. Maybe I'll try substituing Génépy which I have a bottle of.
	2:37pm clarke: thenk yaw!!
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: Saving grace here, spending wise, is that efd has already inspired me to pick up most of these ... can't make me do it twice! Good luck, love2laf!
	2:41pm clarke: who sez not twice?? ha ha
	2:42pm Nicepunk: EFD thanks for introducing me to great new music!
	2:42pm efd: ↳ Nicepunk @2:42 It's why I do this!
	2:42pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "talk to me" by "belle and sebastian" I'm not traditionally a big Belle & Sebastian fan, but I think this is a great song.
	2:42pm Dano59: Belle & Sebastian's Christmas Peel Session is an annual favorite. However much I like what I've heard from this album I have yet to get it, or EP #3 from their last go-round
	2:42pm clarke: i gave this album a helluva chance - there's a few songs holding it back for me.
	2:43pm Dano59: oh, I "get it" but still uncompelled to acquire it.
	2:44pm Yetz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @2:42 I'm also surprised how much I like this B&S LP, I've never been a big fan.
	2:45pm McGroovey: This B&S thing is also in my to-buy list
	2:45pm Dano59: i'm hoping for a Top 5 "archival never-released cassettes" category next year, efd!
	2:46pm Yetz: Oh, I just remembered "Whipped Stream and Other Earthly Delights", that's got to be my record of the year. Yeah.
	2:46pm clarke: what if the Unknown Song comes in at #1????
	2:46pm efd: ↳ clarke @2:46 haaaaa!
	2:47pm clarke: (just creating a little suspense, here)
	2:47pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @2:45 oof!
	2:47pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:46 brilliant idea! then the artist will have to step forward to claim their trophy and we'll all know their true identity!
	2:47pm getinthagroove: 🎷
	2:47pm Dano59: ok, that's 8 bandcamp links open now. And a download of Eyelids.
	2:47pm efd: I feel like most regular listeners will realize now which album will be at #1
	2:47pm clarke: ha ha yes!!
	2:47pm Figgsrock: Ooh, I was certain this was #1!
	2:48pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "losers win" by "the airport 77s" ok. so this is a real surprise. like figgs, i had my money on this as EFD's #1.
	2:48pm clarke: good'uns!!!
	2:48pm Chris Hiatt: Off to La Brea Tar Pits for some LA tourist action. Happy New Year y'all, catch you in '23.
	2:48pm Erin in TO: I've started listening to the airport 77's thanks to this show
	2:49pm clarke: we realize you have a choice.
	2:49pm McGroovey: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:48 Same here. So I can't figure out what #1 is. We're only 1½ minutes away from finding out, though.
	2:49pm medson: I think I know but I'm happy to just sit here and see if I was right
	2:50pm clarke: IT'S NUMBER ONE... IT'S TOP OF THE POPS!!! ...
	2:50pm prof.fuzz: ↳ McGroovey @2:49 i have my suspicions...based on a particular record that hasn't made an appearance yet...
	2:50pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "I hate to see you leave" by "curtis godino presen... it's great to have Shimmy-Disc back, and with such a cool Noo-Wave-era-evoking project.
	2:50pm zprofound: ↳ McGroovey @2:49 One Good Thing About Summer is my #8 favorite song from 2022. But I haven’t listened to the album yet.
	2:50pm prof.fuzz: you realize we have a choice
	2:52pm Glistener MW: Hmm, the #1 album… Mouth Congress?
	2:52pm Handy Haversack: I think I nailed the no. 1. K8 and I have a whole perimutuel thing going over here. Handy needs a new pair of sacks!
	2:53pm Erin in TO: ↳ Glistener MW @2:52 We can hope
	2:53pm clarke: slacks??? noooo!!
	2:53pm prof.fuzz: no pants new jersey
	2:53pm clarke: yer on the way, FuZZZ
	2:54pm Ramona: So close to numero uno!!
	2:54pm Asheville Jon: BEST SMAH OF 2022!!!!!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from December 28, 2022

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 4th, Noon - 3pm: Freaky Wilderness (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Freaky Wilderness includes members of Space Merchants, whose 2018 album landed in EFD’s top 10 of that year. They bring their heavy, fuzzy sound to the WFMU airwaves just days before the release of their debut album Immeasurable Heaven. They’ll preview the album in this live set ahead of the album release show on Thursday Dec. 12 at Main Drag in Brooklyn.
Wed. Dec 11th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!

	12:53pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:50 Indeed!
	12:55pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Evan and all other listeners!
	12:55pm Erin in TO: I'm late tuning in today, but loving what I've heard of the show so far, EFD. Thanks for sharing your faves!
	12:56pm efd: I guess the all-Toronto meeting just let out!
	12:56pm clarke: coconut fudge?
	12:56pm SeanG: coconut thug
	12:56pm javakid: cass mccombs channeling steve wynn
	12:56pm clarke: toronto is on some kinda delay
	12:57pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @12:56 hah I'm just recovering from a trip to visit family over the holidays, and slow getting myself started today
	12:57pm Mike Sin: ↳ clarke @12:49 re: "saturating the market" To what end? What money is Cherry Red raking in by releasing CD box sets in 2022? What could their margins possibly be on physical media?
	12:57pm clarke: torontans don't believe in Kompilations, maybe?
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Mike Sin @12:57 i merely jest.
	12:58pm Erin in TO: ↳ clarke @12:57 Toronto is nothing but a compilation, if we hate them, we hate ourselves...which now that I say it, doesn't sound impossible
	12:59pm clarke: again, i jest.
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Mike Sin @12:57 in doing the buddha's work, they earn karmic merit for each comp they release, and further merit is generated everytime someone listens to one of those comps. it's a perpetual karmic merit generating scheme, just like monumental buddhist statuary...
	1:00pm Erin in TO: ↳ clarke @12:59 Oh I know! The question is how much am I joking? ;)
	1:00pm clarke: yeah what he said!
	1:00pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Handy!
	1:00pm love2laf: ↳ Erin in TO @12:58 Perhaps us Canadians believe in CanConpilations?
	1:01pm Erin in TO: Gotta get that CanCon in
	1:01pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:52 yeh I think it's a rent-to-view now
	1:01pm clarke: oh will have to try later, then, thnx.
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Andrew! How goes in Toronto? (Erin: same sentiment and question!)
	1:01pm Dano59: ↳ Dano59 @1:01 btw I'm ordering my chicory coffee today; thanks for the tips/offer
	1:02pm clarke: most certainly sir!
	1:02pm Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @1:00 I was told that if I know how to CanCompilate in a canoe, I move to the head of the immigration line!
	1:02pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @1:01 Momentarily panicked at the thought of no CanCon in my Best Ofs, but there will be some later.
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @1:01 hey Dano - did you try CDM website??
	1:03pm Dano59: ↳ love2laf @1:00 there's a pretty darned gwood power pop comp called PopCan. ... from the Last Great Power Power Pop Scare in the '90s.
	1:03pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 I've been on the east coast with family for the last week so I can't say for sure, but it's good to be back in TO
	1:03pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @1:02 Good, we don't have to ban you from the airwaves here then
	1:04pm B R M: Need a Lewsberg NYC show this year... argh. so good.
	1:04pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @1:02 yes! But I can also order it from big-boxers like Walmart (though that would be wrong)
	1:04pm Andrew in Toronto: @Handy The snow is mostly gone, but the windchill is nasty!
	1:04pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @1:03 haha!
	1:04pm clarke: oh - well - any way you can!
	1:04pm love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:02 You surely will, but don't forget to put the valuables in a waterproof bag in case you tip the canoe.
	1:05pm Carmichael: ↳ efd @1:02 Maybe some Lorne Greene or Slim Whitman ...
	1:05pm Dano59: Coffee CanCon
	1:05pm efd: ↳ B R M @1:04 from your lips...
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ love2laf @1:04 and tyler too!
	1:06pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:02 There's a lot of canoe-related skills to demonstrate
	1:06pm love2laf: ↳ Dano59 @1:03 Will have to seek that album out, cheers Dano59!
	1:06pm clarke: (i know handy appreciates a historic presdential ref)
	1:07pm clarke: what about the BoatMobile?
	1:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Erin in TO @1:06 I'm up for it! I have my own canoe and paddles, too, and Bagpipe has a canoe rug. Yes, clarke, well done!
	1:07pm simon&morphe': Out for the evening footie in Madrid .. fyi Crescent moon rise is quite beautiful Thanks efd and all !!!!
	1:07pm Dano59: I heard an Odds Xmas song recently on FMU so my CanCon seasonal coffers are full, for now. I should really sweep across some more FM stations on radio.garden after a dive into the CBC Northern Service in November. (First Nations music research)
	1:07pm clarke: = a Voltron Production, LLC
	1:08pm HyperDose: ↳ simon&morphe' @1:07 Have fun and be safe you two!
	1:08pm love2laf: I'm reminded of a joke from my youth, before the days of craft beer: What does making love in a canoe have in common with American beer? (FYI can't tell the full answer)
	1:08pm Karl Ward: EFD: you're sounding great here in deep Northeast NJ, where the only thing stronger than the flu is the FUNK
	1:09pm Dano59: groove is in the heart, for sure
	1:10pm Carmichael: ↳ love2laf @1:04 And Tyler too ...
	1:10pm Chris Hiatt: Hello from Sunny LA!
	1:10pm Handy Haversack: ↳ love2laf @1:08 Brought to you by the good folks at Molson!
	1:11pm clarke: that Tyler gets around!
	1:11pm Handy Haversack: No tour dates listed for Lewsberg on their site.
	1:11pm HyperDose: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:10 Drink! 🍺🥃🍸
	1:12pm clarke: oh - he will!
	1:12pm B R M: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:11 TELL ME ABOUT IT! 😫
	1:12pm JetLee: definitely not a weak single! haha
	1:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, efd and countdown crew!
	1:13pm Glistener MW: Incredible picks, EFD! <3
	1:13pm Erin in TO: Has anyone here seen Depeche Mode in the somewhat recent past? I never have and they're coming here in the spring. Tix are expensive though, wondering if they're worth it?
	1:14pm Dano59: That Perfect Motion LP is going for $10+ a track right now.
	1:15pm B R M: ↳ Erin in TO @1:13 We're thinking of bringing the kids up to Toronto specifically to see the DM show... its Spring Break in NYC schools and my 14 year wants to go, which, unheard of in our house.
	1:15pm full metal monkey: Hello everyone. Hope everyone had a great holiday x-mas.
	1:15pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @1:14 ouch! I didn't notice until now that they're not selling a digital version on bandcamp
	1:15pm prof.fuzz: hey FMM! see ya next thurs!
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: Hey, fmm! Happy New Year!
	1:16pm clarke: bar's over there, Haversack!
	1:16pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Hello efd. Happy New Year
	1:16pm full metal monkey: @handy happy new year
	1:16pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: Any word on Arlene? K8 will have to move some stuff around to come out to JC on Thu.
	1:17pm full metal monkey: @prof. Yeah we are looking forward to playing with you guys again.
	1:17pm Dano59: ↳ efd @1:15 thanks for non-Record-Store-Day FOMO, evan!
	1:18pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:16 no. our booking guy hasn't gotten a confirmation out of them, and is working on something else in the meantime. i'll let ya know as soon as i hear something. a few dates on this run have been tough to nail down.
	1:18pm clarke: so.. EP's go into the single file?
	1:18pm clarke: good luck FuZZZ!!
	1:19pm Figgsrock: All these Ted Leo Bandcamp Friday EPs have been excellent.
	1:19pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:18 for me they do. Not enough of 'em to have their own category.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" Ah, nice, great song.
	1:20pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:19 yeah, that one is kind of a proxy for the ones I never got to! (in addition to being great in its own right, of course!)
	1:20pm clarke: i have a few on my "album" list - which is a bit unfair.
	1:20pm full metal monkey: Stephanie. Yayyyy
	1:21pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:20 My hope is that all that activity leads to a whole LP in 2023.
	1:21pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:20 honestly the whole idea of comparing one piece or collection of music to another is pretty unfair! And yet, here we are.
	1:21pm Dano59: ↳ Figgsrock @1:19 I saw The Both about 7 years ago and have always loved Aimee and Ted whenever they do something individually
	1:21pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:21 agree!
	1:21pm clarke: here we are!! voice of herald!!
	1:22pm McGroovey: This Stephanie Seymour song was certainly one of my favorite songs of the year. I hope there are more coming from her.
	1:22pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" hey, I love this and give it more than a 3!
	1:22pm clarke: McG!!! howzit sir (afraid to ask, a bit)!!
	1:22pm love2laf: ↳ efd @1:21 I think of it as sharing what music really struck your heart and your ears this year. Highly personal, and enjoyable, and to be shared.
	1:22pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "there was a time" by "stephanie seymour" This is a great song. And drums from Ira of Nada Surf!
	1:22pm Erin in TO: ↳ B R M @1:15 That would be an amazing family experience. I wish my family had gone to concerts together!
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:21 Well, we gotta fill up the afternoons somehow. clarke, where do interested parties find your list?
	1:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ efd @1:21 i see lists and shows like this as sharing favorites, rather than competition. the rankings are all personal pref. songs and records hit differently to different people and at different times. this is show and tell time.
	1:23pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @1:22 fair enough!
	1:23pm Dano59: I used to get "hey, how did you not have ____ on your list?" dammit, it's my best-of. Make your own.
	1:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ love2laf @1:22 well said
	1:23pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:23 1000% agree, Prof.
	1:24pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:23 i might be swayed to post it when EFD gets to albums
	1:24pm McGroovey: Also, Dummy. They were the only band whose T-shirt I bought this year, fwiw.
	1:25pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:23 but, PICKING your list is quite competitive - at least in my feeble mind.
	1:25pm Dano59: "YMMV" was a common qualifier on the old Idiot's Delight list.
	1:27pm clarke: for instance - i was faced with a choice at #20 - one band had made a full album, and one band had released a GREAT EP. i "had" to choose the album - because they are tougher to make!!
	1:27pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Heyo! Just got off a meeting, so much great music here....
	1:28pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:25 yes, but you're really competing with yourself in that exercise.
	1:28pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Now I want to re-listen to this whole show and BUY ALL THE BANDCAMP.....
	1:28pm clarke: oh jeez - get better Ted!!
	1:28pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @1:27 fair enough. But great is great ...
	1:29pm B R M: Evan plays them Bandcamp sells them Evan ranks them Evan counts them down ... NUMBER ONEEEE!
	1:29pm clarke: and the unmentioned EP was by Movie Movie - which is GREAT!!
	1:29pm Dano59: I'm parsing my 'best-ofs' between new original work. and covers / tribute albums this year, since covers are a big part of my radio ouvre
	1:30pm Handy Haversack: OK, efd. Salt the wound! But you richly deserve it! We just listened to this single the other day!
	1:30pm Stephanie Seymour: Evan, thank you so much!! YOU ROCK! I'm having trouble posting my comment so I hope this goes through. xoxoxo
	1:31pm egould: I was at a hat Eyelids show too!
	1:31pm efd: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 It did! My pleasure, Stephanie!
	1:31pm full metal monkey: @stephanie. You rule
	1:31pm McGroovey: I agree with your #1!
	1:31pm Carmichael: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 Great song, Stephanie!
	1:32pm Dano59: ↳ Stephanie Seymour @1:30 you're on our radar(s) and our get lists now, Stephanie!
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @1:29 i respect that, D59, but covers loom small in me legend, these days. to each his own, heh heh.
	1:33pm clarke: eyelids!! yay!!!
	1:33pm Dano59: can't make an omelet without breaking a few oeuvres ... there, I spelt it right
	1:33pm Stephanie Seymour: Thank you all for your super sweet comments. It makes my heart happy. And yes, more music coming, hopefully in 2023 - trying to get my ass in gear, hahaha!
	1:34pm clarke: yeah, i should do a separate EP list - to be 'fair' (to be fair!)
	1:34pm Joe B: he efd and everyone
	1:35pm clarke: howdy!
	1:35pm love2laf: ↳ clarke @1:34 More CanCon!
	1:36pm Joe B: I first knew this cut from the Athens Inside Out soundtrack
	1:36pm clarke: saw Squalls at 688, circa 85
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: We had a sit-down while listening to the 45s shelf the other day and went over the shows we saw this year and picked out the highlights. And hotsie motsie, the Eyelids show at TV Eye was waaaaaaaaay up there. And we got to see efd! Chris from Eyelids and I made each other cry at the merch table talking about how long we'd waited for that NYC show and how much we'd all gone through before it happened.
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:34 do it!
	1:38pm B R M: ATHENS, GA INSIDE OUT memories... ❤️
	1:38pm Dano59: I've opened 6 bandcamp links since noon and Eyelids is down to 2 copies
	1:39pm Dano59: ↳ B R M @1:38 Dex holding up that f-hole guitar he found for 5 bucks is my favorite Athens Ga Inside-Out moment ... for any kid who ever wanted a guitar.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:37 next year, ha ha, i have already made this year's list. and boy am i tired.
	1:40pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 @Handy I may have caught COVID at that Eyelids show. Or at one of the three Yo La Tengo shows I went to the same week. BUT THEY WERE WORTH IT! maybe (Not sorry for shouting)
	1:41pm clarke: actually, i enjoy listening to full albums and 'pitting' them against each other. it is an end of year ritual.
	1:41pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @1:40 or the dream syndicate show
	1:41pm clarke: (instead of listening to xmas music)
	1:41pm Handy Haversack: ↳ McGroovey @1:40 We got COVID at another much-delayed and fantastic TV Eye show -- Exbats!
	1:42pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:41 Way to overthink, Clarke. HA HA ...
	1:42pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @1:41 Wasn't that the same show as the Eyelids show?
	1:42pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:40 fair enough. our ep isn't officially released until 1/1/23 cough cough
	1:43pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "don't look down" by "the smithereens" The Smithereens have such an unmistakable sound. Within seconds of the song starting, I know exactly who I'm listening to!
	1:43pm HyperDose: I don't know about y'all but I'm team Diken over here!
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "don't look down" by "the smithereens" Who's on backing vocals?
	1:43pm clarke: oh next year -- you know i have a soft spot for january releases - oh, i done gone and said too much...
	1:43pm McGroovey: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:42 🤔☝️🤣 🤔
	1:43pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:43 IT'S PAT! Dennis revealed all when he was on my show a couple of weeks ago. It's Pat, sped up!
	1:44pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:43 diken said the other day that it is pat's voice sped up!!
	1:44pm clarke: what he said.
	1:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:43 Oh, RIGHT! I remember now!
	1:45pm clarke: AND COMING UP AT NUMBER ONE...
	1:47pm clarke: pretty much EVERY pro tape deck has a vari-speed dial.
	1:48pm Karl Ward: EFD mentions Texas, I am back on the board
	1:48pm prof.fuzz: hola karl!
	1:48pm Carmichael: Tay-Hoss
	1:48pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the kard, Karl! Up on the mantle, tempting the cats to mischief.
	1:49pm Figgsrock: The least shocking #1 on these countdowns!
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: howdy arabia
	1:49pm clarke: i was just remembering when Scharpling used to talk to his ABBA Boxset.
	1:50pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:49 haha, true!
	1:50pm McGroovey: I used my $100 Amzn Christmas card to buy a bunch of Cleaners From Venus things I've been meaning to get, plus the "new" Heavy Metal Kids thing that came out recently. But the Heavy Metal Kids thing was out of stock, so I had to settle for the first Heavy Metal Kids album. BUT THE POINT IS that the John Carter thing would have been a good thing to get around to, as part of that meaning-to-get-around-to-buying venture. But there's always next week. So far
	1:51pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:50 If it wasn't, I would have assumed you had been kidnapped by aliens and replaced by a clone!
	1:51pm Karl Ward: prof.fuzz: do you have a picture of the Fuzzmobile? I want to watch highway cams and spot it upon entry to NJ.
	1:51pm clarke: funny McG - i just did a Cleaners buying spree as Euclid had all those vinyl re-issues
	1:52pm clarke: ↳ Karl Ward @1:51 tim stole all the photos!
	1:52pm Figgsrock: ↳ McGroovey @1:50 I saved my cards until this show just in case there was something I needed to get.
	1:52pm Dano59: Cleaners is one of those acts I don't know how I ever lived without. reeeeallly inspiring from a home 4-track perspective too.
	1:53pm Karl Ward: I’m picturing a VW van absolutely covered in faux fur
	1:53pm clarke: yeah - how did i miss them??
	1:53pm Handy Haversack: I found Cleaners through WFMU!
	1:54pm clarke: i actually remember Cleaners from some comp back in the day - but, i guess it took a while to register w/me.
	1:54pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:52 they vacuumed tim out of back seat of the fuZZZmobile at the kia dealership on monday. hopefully he'll resurface soon.
	1:54pm Dano59: maybe I heard them here first too, but it might have been 'Crystals and Ronettes' after Ronnie died.
	1:55pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl Ward @1:51 red kia carnival with howdy arabian plates and a 63 on the back window. can't miss it.
	1:55pm clarke: gosh, i hope Tim's okay! KiA could stand for killed in action.
	1:56pm clarke: and we know tim gets a lot of ACTION!!
	1:56pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl Ward @1:53 way better than the real thing... ask me sometime about my 1969 VW bus that was the beef-skürts gig van...
	1:56pm Carmichael: Long time Martin Newell fan. Cleaners were a great band.
	1:56pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @1:51 Ten years ago I bought those CD comps of the early CfV albums, and they were great. So I gave them to my sister for Christmas that year because I thought she'd like them, and I'd forgotten to buy her a present. She's probably given all her CDs to Goodwill, as most normal people have done. I do know that she doesn't listen to CDs anymore. I haven't felt like being That Guy and asking for them back. I haven't gotten around to buying those again until now.
	1:57pm clarke: let's just hope you don't have to try to retrieve them at Goodwill!!
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: So smooth they had to post it twice!
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: McGroove, I haven't gotten any of the albums. Best place to start?
	1:58pm clarke: coming in at number 14 AND 13!!
	1:58pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:57 computer froze up!
	1:59pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @1:57 I have not tried that. I'd have to ask her where she took them. Or are they in a box in the basement under a leaking pipe? Oh, the humanity!
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:58 That's just because of how cool it is, efd!
	1:59pm Tommy in Neversink: I missed some of the top ten. Can you spin em again
	1:59pm clarke: oh the humanity!!
	2:00pm Carmichael: I keep all my physical media in case the digital songs get zapped (and they have!). I don't support iTunes music after the U2 fiasco, and I don't believe in paying for things twice.
	2:00pm efd: next year someone remind me to: a) include the album names on my playlist cheat sheet, and 1) pre-queue all the songs in the playlist system, not just the first half
	2:00pm Tommy in Neversink: Seriously , thank you for another year of great music EFD
	2:00pm Figgsrock: Oh yeah, Spray!!!
	2:01pm clarke: my Top 20 of '22 20 - Value Leaders - Remo Is A Dreamer 19 - Guided By Voices - Tremblers & Goggles By Rank 18 - Florist - Florist 17 - The Daylillies - From America 16 - Guided By Voices - Crystal Nuns Cathedral 15 - Simon Juliff - Stars 14 - Mountain Goats - Free Of Infinite Binding EP 13 - The Black Watch - The Neverland Of Spoken Things 12 - Robert Pollard - Our Gaze 11 - Silver Synthetic - Silver Synthetic 10 - Tony Jay - Hey Flower 09 - Michael Head & The Red Elastic - Dear Scott 08 - The Beths - Expert In A Dying Field 07 - Sam Stansfield - Extreme Falcon 06 - Alex G - God Save The Animals 05 - Ethanol Blend - Anodised 04 - Tom Barrett - You Are And You've Always Been 03 - The Bevis Frond - Little Eden 02 - Sloan - Steady 01 - Jeremy Scott - Bear Grease
	2:01pm Figgsrock: EFD, I downloaded the updated version when I finally got back to Brooklyn last night. A perfect closer to that album.
	2:02pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:58 I've never heard a Cleaners/Martin Newell record I didn't like. But maybe start with You've Never Had It So Good: The Best Of, and the Martin Newell/Andy Partridge collab The Greatest Living Englishman.
	2:04pm clarke: although My Back Wages is cool because it is a comp of newell's demos from early days...
	2:05pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:01 ah, I love The Beths and I bought a Bevis Frond LP this year but not that one.
	2:05pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @2:01 I haven't heard most of those, except for The Beths, Bevis Frond, Tom Barrett. GBV: I stopped paying attention when I realized I had 40 records by them. Enough!
	2:05pm Yetz: ↳ clarke @2:01 Nice list clarke. GBV on there twice as well as a Pollard LP I haven't even heard of!
	2:05pm Carmichael: ↳ McGroovey @2:02 Living With Victoria Grey is excellent, as is On Any Normal Monday.
	2:05pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @2:05 any bevis is friggin' great. which one??
	2:06pm clarke: ↳ Yetz @2:05 i maybe felt a bit guilty that no GBV records were on my last year's list, ha ha ha.
	2:06pm McGroovey: ↳ Carmichael @2:05 Yes, that's a good selection of songs also.
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Carmichael @2:05 Checking against what's available physically on Bandcamp ... Thanks for the list, clarke!
	2:07pm clarke: (actually, i just thought they really bounced back, this year)
	2:08pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:07 i was determined to not let a january release get overshadowed by later releases, this time.
	2:08pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "feels like a different thing" by "confidence man" Best false ending of the year too!
	2:09pm Carmichael: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:07 The older LPs are not on bandcamp, for some strange reason.
	2:09pm clarke: which will work in Prof's favor next year -- along with the EP list being separate, ha ha.
	2:09pm Hughie Considine: howdy Clarke!
	2:09pm Yetz: ↳ clarke @2:06 Oren Ambarchi is on my list twice this year ("Ghosted" and "Shebang", both great if you like that kind of thing) but not sure what my #1 is this year or if I even have one.
	2:09pm McGroovey: I used to get every Mountain Goats record that came out, but then he made one I didn't care for, and [see above, as for GBV]
	2:09pm clarke: Hugh!! i trust a cool yule was enjoyed?
	2:09pm getinthagroove: ↳ Song: "feels like a different thing" by "confidence man" Excellent tune! nods head cracks glow stick
	2:10pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @2:09 same McG - but their EP is really a comeback to the greatness that they had.
	2:11pm Hughie Considine: Twas a cool yule! Been great hangin' with my dudes home from college, renting DVDs from the library and eating loads of popcorn. Your list looks good. I screen-shotted it!
	2:11pm joe_rosevear: Hello, funky folks! Am late to the party, as usual.
	2:11pm Yetz: ↳ Yetz @2:09 Possibly "In These Times" by Makaya McCraven or "Gold" by Alabaster DePlume. I guess I didn't listen to a lot of pop/rock this year.
	2:12pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:09 whatever it takes, clarkEEE
	2:13pm clarke: in NO way am i anti-EP's - love 'em. they are just easier to put out than an LP
	2:15pm getinthagroove: ↳ Yetz @2:11 Makaya's album is in my top 25 for sure. Amazing stuff
	2:17pm clarke: we appreciate your efforts EFD!! thanks!!
	2:17pm Joe B: pre-chewed?
	2:18pm JetBoy of Astoria: Hello efd and all! Ready for the freer-form part of the show as we move away from the pre-typed set list…
	2:18pm clarke: alicja!! yass!!
	2:18pm Handy Haversack: I hate it when they fight. This album is great! And we managed to catch Sweet Knives at TV Eye.
	2:18pm Joe B: oh crap, forgot about this one!
	2:18pm love2laf: ↳ JetBoy of Astoria @2:18 Pre-Free-Formed.
	2:19pm efd: ↳ Joe B @2:17 my tongue is pre-chewed!
	2:19pm clarke: it was foreshadowed heavily
	2:20pm clarke: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" our venn diagrams just touched.
	2:20pm Erin in TO: CanCon!
	2:20pm Joe B: ↳ efd @2:19 nah it is my lack of hearing!
	2:20pm Nicepunk: Great set, EFD!
	2:21pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" hoping for a Sloan US tour in '23!
	2:21pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @2:20 oh yeah, duh!
	2:21pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:21 From my hometown of Halifax, no less
	2:21pm BH: shoutout to the orange cat on not needing to jump onto the end table as a prelude to jumping in his favorite chair. He can occasionally get in that chair from the floor.
	2:22pm clarke: wow, love halifax!! niiice!
	2:22pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "dream it all over again" by "sloan" The guitar crunch is especially fine on this LP.
	2:22pm efd: ↳ Erin in TO @2:21 I really want to get up to NS in the next year or two... went about 25 years ago and loved it, it's been too long!
	2:22pm clarke: all over it!
	2:23pm John L: Darn it, man. Filling up my Bandcamp cart and it's your fault!!!
	2:23pm efd: apparently we're in the "bands that start with S" portion of the countdown
	2:23pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:22 I love it there, I do miss it sometimes. Only been in Toronto since 2016
	2:23pm Yetz: ↳ BH @2:21 Way to go Orangey!
	2:23pm Handy Haversack: I hear it's the new Scotland!
	2:24pm clarke: you just want the scotch to be there!
	2:24pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:23 or as they like to call it, "proto-nova scotia"
	2:25pm Erin in TO: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:23 Because one Scotland wasn't enough!
	2:25pm clarke: never is!
	2:25pm getinthagroove: ↳ Song: "dealers" by "savak" Nice driving rocker
	2:26pm McGroovey: I want to get this Savak. I'm trying to control my acquisitions, though.
	2:27pm clarke: i hear ya.
	2:27pm Erin in TO: ↳ efd @2:22 If you do go to Halifax, don't believe anyone who tells you John's Lunch is the best fish & chips in town. They are dirty liars
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: They have a 4 LP + 1 EP bundle, McGroove ...
	2:28pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @2:26 so was i when i bought all those CfV re-ish's.
	2:28pm BH: ↳ Yetz @2:23 He's a little out of his usual order today. He spent some afternoon time sleeping on the bed, got up, came back down, decided to rub up against my feet, and then got in that chair. Usually he ends up in the living room cat tree for afternoons.
	2:28pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:05 late reply: The Leaving of London.
	2:29pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:28 I saw that, yes. And I think I only have the first album, which is not in that bundle, I don't think. But
	2:29pm Yetz: Hey Handy, do you have any new holiday cocktail suggestions? I've been enjoying Brown Derbys but we are out of grapefruits.
	2:29pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @2:28 i don't have that one... (gets on computer grumbling)
	2:30pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @2:29 It's a great one.
	2:30pm prof.fuzz: ↳ McGroovey @2:26 the savak album is definitely in my imaginary top ten of 22 list
	2:30pm clarke: this album was hovering above my 20 like a drone over brad pitt's home
	2:32pm McGroovey: The Leaving of London: I listened to it in repeat for about a month when I first got it. Ten years ago
	2:32pm common: evan, all
	2:32pm clarke: i've heard it, but don't OWN it. hard to keep up.
	2:33pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @2:29 so was Little Eden out late enough in '21 to be in with '22? I'm not real strict about that. As for Bevis, I just glommed onto it when I saw it in the store. A reissue.
	2:33pm Dano59: i figured, as it's been said, any bevis frond is great
	2:34pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Yetz @2:29 Yetz, we have been enjoying Yellow Cocktails (1:1:1 gin : Suze : lemon juice). Also a Perfect BQE (2 ounces rye, 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth, 1/2 ounce dry vermouth, 1/4 ounce green Chartreuse, barspoon maraschino liqueur). Also, Jasmine (1 1/2 ounces gin, 3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice, 1/4 ounce Cointreau, 1/4 ounce Campari, Garnish: lemon twist). And if you can get good applejack, Princess Mary's Pride Cocktail 1 Part Applejack ½ Part Dry Vermouth ½ Part Dubonnet I am thinking of getting a split of sparkling wine and adding some to a Yellow to see if the King in Yellow can be a thing.
	2:34pm clarke: well the vinyl for Little Eden wasn't out until the new year
	2:34pm love2laf: Power is out, sadly I will miss the rest of the show. Darned weather! Will visit the archives another day, cheers efd and all the fellow funksters.
	2:35pm clarke: dang!!
	2:36pm Elena: Glad Can Con made it so far up the countdown!
	2:36pm Erin in TO: ↳ love2laf @2:34 Hope your power comes back soon!
	2:37pm Dano59: pulled the trigger on the Eyelids single. A much safer investment than a rando fat guy NFT.
	2:37pm prof.fuzz: #5 clarkEEE
	2:37pm clarke: numbaaah fiiiyev!!
	2:37pm Yetz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:34 Thanks! I'm out of Chartreuse, which is a bit hard to find right now. Maybe I'll try substituing Génépy which I have a bottle of.
	2:37pm clarke: thenk yaw!!
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: Saving grace here, spending wise, is that efd has already inspired me to pick up most of these ... can't make me do it twice! Good luck, love2laf!
	2:41pm clarke: who sez not twice?? ha ha
	2:42pm Nicepunk: EFD thanks for introducing me to great new music!
	2:42pm efd: ↳ Nicepunk @2:42 It's why I do this!
	2:42pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "talk to me" by "belle and sebastian" I'm not traditionally a big Belle & Sebastian fan, but I think this is a great song.
	2:42pm Dano59: Belle & Sebastian's Christmas Peel Session is an annual favorite. However much I like what I've heard from this album I have yet to get it, or EP #3 from their last go-round
	2:42pm clarke: i gave this album a helluva chance - there's a few songs holding it back for me.
	2:43pm Dano59: oh, I "get it" but still uncompelled to acquire it.
	2:44pm Yetz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @2:42 I'm also surprised how much I like this B&S LP, I've never been a big fan.
	2:45pm McGroovey: This B&S thing is also in my to-buy list
	2:45pm Dano59: i'm hoping for a Top 5 "archival never-released cassettes" category next year, efd!
	2:46pm Yetz: Oh, I just remembered "Whipped Stream and Other Earthly Delights", that's got to be my record of the year. Yeah.
	2:46pm clarke: what if the Unknown Song comes in at #1????
	2:46pm efd: ↳ clarke @2:46 haaaaa!
	2:47pm clarke: (just creating a little suspense, here)
	2:47pm efd: ↳ Dano59 @2:45 oof!
	2:47pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:46 brilliant idea! then the artist will have to step forward to claim their trophy and we'll all know their true identity!
	2:47pm getinthagroove: 🎷
	2:47pm Dano59: ok, that's 8 bandcamp links open now. And a download of Eyelids.
	2:47pm efd: I feel like most regular listeners will realize now which album will be at #1
	2:47pm clarke: ha ha yes!!
	2:47pm Figgsrock: Ooh, I was certain this was #1!
	2:48pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "losers win" by "the airport 77s" ok. so this is a real surprise. like figgs, i had my money on this as EFD's #1.
	2:48pm clarke: good'uns!!!
	2:48pm Chris Hiatt: Off to La Brea Tar Pits for some LA tourist action. Happy New Year y'all, catch you in '23.
	2:48pm Erin in TO: I've started listening to the airport 77's thanks to this show
	2:49pm clarke: we realize you have a choice.
	2:49pm McGroovey: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:48 Same here. So I can't figure out what #1 is. We're only 1½ minutes away from finding out, though.
	2:49pm medson: I think I know but I'm happy to just sit here and see if I was right
	2:50pm clarke: IT'S NUMBER ONE... IT'S TOP OF THE POPS!!! ...
	2:50pm prof.fuzz: ↳ McGroovey @2:49 i have my suspicions...based on a particular record that hasn't made an appearance yet...
	2:50pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "I hate to see you leave" by "curtis godino presen... it's great to have Shimmy-Disc back, and with such a cool Noo-Wave-era-evoking project.
	2:50pm zprofound: ↳ McGroovey @2:49 One Good Thing About Summer is my #8 favorite song from 2022. But I haven’t listened to the album yet.
	2:50pm prof.fuzz: you realize we have a choice
	2:52pm Glistener MW: Hmm, the #1 album… Mouth Congress?
	2:52pm Handy Haversack: I think I nailed the no. 1. K8 and I have a whole perimutuel thing going over here. Handy needs a new pair of sacks!
	2:53pm Erin in TO: ↳ Glistener MW @2:52 We can hope
	2:53pm clarke: slacks??? noooo!!

	2:57pm Ramona: Great count down list EFD!

	2:58pm Yetz: ↳ Song: "jungle birds" by "lulu lewis" This is a great pick for #1. I only know the title track (from Wake'n'Bake) but it's an instant classic. Gotta check out the rest of this LP!
