WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from June 21, 2023

Listener comments!
	6/19 1:46pm efd: Make your InterActiv™ Listening Party requests now!
	6/19 4:51pm Joe R.: That’s the “I Don’t Wanna Cry” Keys, correct? I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only one who’d want to hear more from them. And at the risk of sounding greedy, any of the Chiswick selections too :) I am in utter amazement at your haul by the way!
	6/19 7:12pm efd: ↳ Joe R. @4:51 Yep, same Keys. I've had their LP on my list for a while now so I was happy to come across those singles, at least!
	6/20 9:54am love2laf: This looks interesting, I would request a cut from this: Various - Wonderful Time Out There - Stiff Records (1981) Ian Dury and the Blockheads are always good, but really, anything you pick from this LP would be awesome. 200 records, customs nightmare, how on earth did that go? Looking forward to the shows to come from this trip.
	6/20 12:08pm efd: ↳ love2laf @9:54 No nightmare at all! There was no inspection at all on the way back, I kept waiting for it and the next thing I knew I was through customs and in the arrivals area!
	6/20 12:15pm Mike Lupica: That Jeffrey Lee Pierce record is my eternal $5-record-which-I-always-see-but-already-own-and-so-I-buy-it-for-someone-else record store conquest. Surprised I haven't already bought a copy for you! In truth, it's a very uneven album (and I say this as a serious Gun Club/JLP fan), but the song "From Temptation to You" is damn near perfect. So that's my request!
	6/20 12:15pm Figgsrock: EFD-I just realized I won't be able to listen live, but my serious requests are that Godfathers remix. Pilot and something from Fun Boy Three, so you can mention this box set: www.slicingupeyeballs.com...
	1:27pm efd: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:15 I just realized that Jeffrey Lee Pierce record was listed incorrectly. I only found/bought the 7" that's included with the LP, but there's no separate listing on Discogs for the 7" so I just added the LP to my collection for now.
	1:32pm Mike Lupica: ↳ efd @1:27 Wait, there's a 7" that comes with that?!? I must inspect my copy when I get home!
	1:34pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Mike Lupica @1:32 Bah, looks like a different version from the one I have. In which case I change my request to something from the single!
	1:36pm efd: ↳ Mike Lupica @1:34 Noted!
	6:52pm clarke: i, too, am interested in the JLP bonus ep - unless it is Lupita Screams, i don't know what's on that??
	8:23pm he can jog: I'm very interested in the "Young Persons Guide to Compact" comp! I'd like to hear any tracks you'd prefer to play but The Popheads have a suitably curious pimple-adjacent name and a suitably obscure metadata trail that and I'd be curious to hear their contributions to this compilation. :-)
	8:32pm McGroovey: You went all the way to England to buy Dead Man's Curve? Well, I always love Nash the Slash record, but I have that one. I guess I'd like to hear the records I've never heard.
	8:34pm McGroovey: But I guess you don't know which records I've never heard. Start with the records YOU'VE never heard. I probably haven't heard those.
	8:52pm drr: Fascinated to hear a Roy C. record that you would go to England to get.
	8:53pm drr: Don't play "Wot?" Or do. Fine either way.
	9:02am love2laf: ↳ efd @12:08 That's fantastic! Every once in a while you get a nice surprise like that, and count yourself fortunate. Red letter day!
	12:00pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Evan and all!
	12:00pm nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...
	12:01pm love2laf: This is going to be fun, and special, looking forward to it efd! Hello to all the fellow funksters out there. @nycmusicnerd how's the back today?
	12:01pm clarke: dynOmite people!!!! heyyy!! airhorn, etc!!
	12:02pm clarke: everybody's got a different story!!
	12:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! One vote for Buzzcocks, if you please.
	12:02pm Gregolomania: Hoping for Cheese and Onions.
	12:03pm slocker: I vote for whatever the most annoying record is
	12:03pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ love2laf @12:01 Better. I'm ok as long as I keep my body in a straight line. Once I try to turn I'm reminded of what I did on Monday.
	12:04pm Gregolomania: ↳ Song: "get your gun" by "zakatek" The guy that sang for Alan Parsons Project?
	12:04pm Danne D: hi EFD and everyone - any chance we hear some Starbreaker today? :D
	12:04pm Wallis...: Just got my tickets for the GBV 40th Anniversary show(s) in Dayton in September, so that....
	12:04pm nycmusicnerd: Everyone's going to hate me for this, but I vote for Rick Astley. >:)
	12:04pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:04 not gonna happen!
	12:05pm clarke: EFD = do what you DO, baby!! maybe you should take the rest of the day and play ALL them rekkids!!
	12:05pm slocker: I heard the Rick Astley was bought by mistake!
	12:05pm paddy in matawan: Thats a lot of records! Did you ship them or pack them?
	12:05pm efd: ↳ slocker @12:03 Too soon to say, I haven't even listened to them all yet!
	12:05pm Jessie: Hi efd. I would like to request Voxpop-Sleeping In A Stranger's Bed. Thank you.
	12:05pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:04 Then why did you buy it? :) He's gotten a bad rap over the years. As a singer he's criminally underrated.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 how's the back?
	12:06pm R2: ↳ Danne D @12:04 Seconded. 1st day of summer after all
	12:06pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @12:06 See above.
	12:06pm radioronan: Whoah..Wow. Welcome back Evan! Those suitcases musta weighted a ton! I need to set aside time just to read through list!
	12:06pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 see the note next to the asterisk below the list
	12:06pm Chris Hiatt: Fun, looks like a heckuva drop! My InterActiv™ Listening Party request: Godley & Creme - "Under Your Thumb" - Polydor (1981)
	12:07pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:06 HA! I was about to request that!
	12:08pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:06 Sounds like you got rickrolled at the record store, then.
	12:08pm love2laf: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:06 Glad to hear it's better, although it's really tough to get not turning, hope it mends fully soon.
	12:09pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:07 It's almost too irresistible!
	12:09pm Borg9: Art 4 Art's Sake
	12:10pm northguineahills: ↳ efd @12:05 it's only about 15 hours worth of music, if you start after your show, you can be done by 6 am tomorrow!
	12:10pm prof.fuzz: Afternoon y’all.
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:03 got it - hope it gets better!!
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:10 i vote he gets the air-time (and extra air for the horns)
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 FuZZZZZZ - you in the 'mobile???
	12:12pm blee: ↳ Song: "going out wiv a punk" by "the punkettes" Can you please play Pigbag - Lend An Ear - Y Records (1983) Sounds like a squeel!
	12:12pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 Afternoon, prof.fuzz.
	12:13pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "lady (put the light on me)" by "dead end kids" Hilarious
	12:13pm paddy in matawan: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 That B side of the Rick Astley disc sounds like he was reaching real hard for another Never Gonna Give You Up.
	12:13pm love2laf: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 You note this playlist has footnote!
	12:14pm Andres: ↳ Song: "going out wiv a punk" by "the punkettes" Good aft, efd and all. Please tell me that someone wrote an answer song!
	12:14pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:13 Wait! That was supposed to be about the "punk" song!

	12:15pm prof.fuzz: Thai lunch. No sammich.
	12:15pm clarke: was wondering where Pure Tim was
	12:15pm northguineahills: There have been a few times I've had records added to the ones I had on hold by the record staff, and I actually enjoyed the added ones better than the ones I picked out...
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" i have this album - but no single!
	12:15pm prof.fuzz: Tim’s eating more tacos…

	12:16pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:15 more than... you???
	12:16pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ paddy in matawan @12:14 I'll have to go back and listen to it. For a real interesting LIVE mashup, go to YouTube and look up "Foo Fighters Rick Astley Tokyo".
	12:16pm HarktheUmpire: Would love to hear the whole Buzzcocks' Spiral Scratch EP. And do everyone a favor and chuck that Herman Brood record out the window, will ya?
	12:17pm Bryant in TO: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" That's some cracklin' CanCon!
	12:17pm Bdogg & Felix: Homage to Cleveland’s / I-90 “Dead man’s curve”
	12:18pm clarke: vinyl resting place is scrattttccchyyy

	12:19pm efd: Buzzcocks requesters: you're gonna have to come back next week!
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" Nash the Slash's next LP featured a track produced by one "Dan Lanois." He went on to earn some acclaim.
	12:20pm clarke: mawnin' suh!!
	12:20pm love2laf: ↳ efd @12:19 You mean you didn't bring all 200 records in with you? Ha!

	12:21pm Danne D: needed to sneak a Starbreaker EP into Evan's bag ;) (also on the app so had to jump to web to see the note) anyway thanks for being back the treats EFD and happy solstice :D
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:19 dan lanoise - the guy who started neil young into mediocrity??
	12:22pm Bryant in TO: Loving this set so far. Feels like red shag carpet, dark wood-paneled walls, cigarette smoke, and spilled ale
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" Oh The b-side of Dead Man's Curve is a non-LP track. I've never heard it. I should teach that down.
	12:22pm love2laf: ↳ Song: "what a waste" by "ian dury" Thank you efd, love me some Ian Dury!
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:22 Track

	12:23pm Bryant in TO: ↳ Bryant in TO @12:22 And maybe toasted cheese sandwiches
	12:23pm love2laf: ↳ Bryant in TO @12:23 Looking around, but I don't see you in my house...
	12:24pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:21 I never checked out "Le Noise" but I'll take your word that it was not top-tier Neil.
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:24 it wasn't all THAT bad, but the following albums - ugh. he's come out of that, now.
	12:24pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:21 Yeah, Daniel Lanois got his start in the FM/Nash orbit. FM wasn't a household name in the US, but they were big in Canada.
	12:25pm Frank In Queens: Hey efd. Great haul!
	12:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "what a waste" by "ian dury" i only have the version ian did w/ curve in '93...
	12:26pm prof.fuzz: Lunchtime! Catch y’all later!
	12:27pm Desko2000: Something off the Pilot LP s'il vous plait!!!
	12:27pm Madwood: I think the singer in London Underground runs the excellent Pressure Sounds reggae label these days
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:25 missed your show again!! archives!!
	12:30pm luka: oh hey it’s efd
	12:31pm Andres: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" That was along way to go for CanCon. ;)
	12:32pm Desko2000: Ok once again...how did you get through customs? lol
	12:32pm G: I remember Wizzard - "See My Baby Jive" - Harvest (1973) being mimed to on Top of the Pops while it was on the UK charts. An early entry in that 70s "50s revival" trend.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ G @12:32 but..i don't think that is on any album
	12:34pm Gurldoggie: I buy records when I travel as well, but I'm always nervous about how they'll survive the journey home. Did you check them as baggage? Or carry them on the plane?
	12:34pm G: ↳ Desko2000 @12:32 Customs agent: "Look at this old junk. No actual value. Pass."
	12:35pm Joe R.: ↳ efd @7:12 Thanks Evan! And thanks for the Stiff comp spin too.
	12:35pm clarke: @Hughie: i see GBV is playing asheville in rocktobah. hmm....
	12:37pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:35 Noted! Saw them last summer when they were in Carrboro -- do I want to drive 3 1/2 hrs to A'ville? That's a hmm...
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:37 hey, if i drive the 10 hours...
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:37 ...then you are a fanatic!
	12:39pm clarke: it's the closest they'll be coming. and yes. i might be a fanatic.
	12:40pm Brian in UK: Hello efd, glad you had a good/expensive trip over here. See you have Toni Basil's Mickey. The flip on Radialchoice was Hanging Around by Tony Conway from Mood Six. Useless fact, I used to work with Tony.
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:38 their latest "single" is pretty boffo.
	12:41pm efd: ↳ Brian in UK @12:40 That's exactly why I bought that single! I've loved that Mood Six song since I was doing college radio!
	12:41pm efd: ↳ efd @12:41 honestly one of the records I was most hoping to find
	12:42pm Brian in UK: ↳ efd @12:41 My copy is barely playable these days. Shame it was not on the flip for America.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:40 Pollard keeps finding ways to write those magical tunes. Amazing that he's kept it up, unlike say, his hero, Pete Townshend, whose well eventually dried up.
	12:44pm clarke: i like that last who album!!
	12:44pm MelaniR: Hi Evan! My timing in perfect! Thanks. I mean who doesn't love this song? It's perfect.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ Song: "another girl, another planet" by "the only ones" is this my copy?!?
	12:45pm Andrea C from the app: Hi EFD and everyone!!! Summertime!!! Live this tune!
	12:45pm egould: ↳ efd @12:41 @efd I was looking up obscure bands that have been played on WFMU, and Einstein’s Riceboys popped into my head. And sure enough, you have played a couple tracks. Congratulations, you are a vinyl junkie.
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:44 Let's just say Pollard's well seems amazingly full, even at his relentless clip.
	12:46pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 he went thru a non-special period, there, but this new one is BACK
	12:47pm Brian in UK: YIPEE
	12:47pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Thanks efd for the Only Ones track! Big smile
	12:47pm swivs: EFD has transcended vinyl "junkie" by now. Pretty sure he's OD'ed, ELP'ed and XTC'ed several times
	12:50pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "hanging around" by "toni basil" efd, I can imagine your face when as you were flipping through the singles this one appeared. Big grin.
	12:51pm listener james from westwood: Aw yiss Steinski!
	12:52pm clarke: i wonder if Fuzz is playing this at the lunch table?? ha ha.
	12:52pm Gurldoggie: Love me some Steinski. This was my subliminal request!
	12:53pm clarke: get down!!
	12:53pm efd: ↳ Brian in UK @12:50 You know it! Second day of the trip and already a success!
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: So much goin' on, on this track. Love it.
	12:55pm Brian in UK: Think maybe Kid Koala was influenced by Steinski.
	12:55pm Andrea C: 2Efd so cool listeners can pick a song! Can I request Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas - "I'll Keep You Satisfied" please?
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Song: "band of gold" by "chanter sisters" mondegreen: thought it said now it's pseu braun
	12:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "band of gold" by "chanter sisters" I always wished this song was a bit more explicit about why they stayed in separate rooms that night.
	12:57pm clarke: you don't know?
	12:58pm G: So, this song was redone as something between reggae and disco barely over five years after being a big pop/soul hit.
	12:58pm clarke: apparently.
	12:58pm Jack McGuire: Thanks EFD!
	12:59pm Krys O.: ↳ G @12:58 en.wikipedia.org...
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Song: "we're having all the fun" by "fun boy three" Figgs will be happy!!
	1:00pm prof.fuzz: hey again... my lunch mates had to cancel.
	1:01pm blee: dear god, Bilbo, what have you done!?!?!
	1:02pm Krys O.: Doreen Chanter was one of the backing vocalists for Roxy Music when Bryan wore his military-styled outfit: www.gettyimages.co.uk...
	1:04pm efd: I know there are a lot of requests I didn't get to, even pre-show ones -- sorry! I'll get you next week!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:00 doh - sammich!!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:00 hope there's nothing wrong.
	1:05pm Borg9: Bilbo take the effing ring off!!
	1:05pm clarke: handy is on vacay, btw. not sure where tim is.
	1:06pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and fans. Late to the party; I'm retired now and can't get used to my new schedule. I see you played Lenny Zakatek's early single, what a find! Dudley Moore and 10cc had something to do with that, I understand. Art For Art's Sake is a great song, although it's a bit long for commercial radio.
	1:06pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:06 whatsup mate?
	1:08pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:04 one of my friends wasn't feeling well. i'm home fixing some mac and cheese... then efd and footnotes!
	1:08pm Carmichael: Heya Clarke, sleeping in and staying up late! How about you?
	1:08pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:08 they's somethin' goin' round, fo sho
	1:09pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:08 that sounds GREAT!!
	1:09pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "hanging around" by "toni basil" i was kinda hoping this was TB covering the stranglers...
	1:11pm winston legthigh: hello efd and the funky bunch.
	1:11pm tim from washington: Hey efd! Hey everyone! efd - this is amazing! thanks for listing your record haul! WHat I cool idea to share your scores by honoring requests!
	1:11pm poptone: Thanks for the Bilbo Baggins spin. Wasn't as much of a glam stomper I was hoping for but still dug it. Thought it may be a cover of the Spinners track besides, glad you cleared that up :) Thank you for your very committed service!
	1:11pm Andrea C: ↳ efd @1:04 thanks, EFD for even gambling on this! :D
	1:11pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:08 sadly, i am in the same boat you were a few weeks back, mourning the loss of an ex-bandmate
	1:12pm clarke: ↳ tim from washington @1:11 there he is!! pure.
	1:14pm tim from washington: ↳ clarke @1:12 Hey clarke! Sorry o hear about your bandmate.
	1:14pm clarke: ↳ tim from washington @1:14 yeah, it's sad, as he was pretty young, too
	1:15pm clarke: ↳ clarke @1:14 at the same time, i am consoled by the fact that he and i were in near-daily communication all this past spring!!
	1:16pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:11 Sorry to hear. It was a real gut punch for me, at a time when I was going through my own life transition. Good luck to you and RIP your friend.
	1:16pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:16 yeah, i think i had more time to prepare than you. it's sad. thanks!
	1:18pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:16 i think EFD has some Pilot on his list!!
	1:18pm radioronan: Hadn't heard about Justine. Saw them a couple of times in Boston. Very sad.
	1:19pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "margaritas and second hand smoke" by "justine & t... love her voice
	1:19pm efd: ↳ radioronan @1:18 just stunning.
	1:19pm clarke: ↳ radioronan @1:18 if you are in the boston area, check out The Daylillies, sometime!
	1:20pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:16 sorry for the loss of your friend/'mate, Clarke.
	1:20pm clarke: thank you EFD = this is a good therapy for blues!
	1:21pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "margaritas and second hand smoke" by "justine & t... Great song title! I'm sorry that your friend passed, efd.
	1:22pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:20 and oh yeah - sorry for your loss, too!
	1:23pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "margaritas and second hand smoke" by "justine & t... I thought both of these cuts were fantastic. Too bad she left us, just getting to know her work!
	1:25pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:18 I saw that, 2nd Flight. That is a pretty good LP. January was the radio "hit", but I like Call Me Round.

	1:30pm clarke: ↳ radioronan @1:29 thanks! yeah - if you like justine, the Daylillies might do.
	1:30pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:30 you are KIDDING!!!! (i was kidding)
	1:31pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:30 ah, I couldn't tell
	1:32pm clarke: ha ha ha ha ha
	1:32pm clarke: ever the prankster - even in mourning (and morning)

	1:51pm efd: ↳ Carmichael @1:48 they were such a part of the musical fabric of NYC in the late '70s/'80s
	1:52pm tim from washington: I really like the Senders I'm hearing here. I love late &0s/early 80s NYC music across the board. I'm glad to learn of another band I didn't know before. RIP Phillippe Marcade.
	1:54pm tim from washington: ↳ Song: "RIP Philippe Marcade. I haven't read his memoir, ... Thanks for the link, efd. That book looks cool!
	1:54pm efd: ↳ Song: "my shiny red dress" by "the senders" I asked Philippe directly about the sounds on this track that sound like a CD skipping, will explain on the air
	1:58pm love2laf: I was wondering, thank you efd.
	2:00pm Brian in UK: efd, got to cut & run. Thanks for sharing.
	2:01pm Power Papi: Highly recommend the Peter Case documentary; Jack Lee's interview is a highlight...

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from June 21, 2023

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!

Listener comments!
	6/19 1:46pm efd: Make your InterActiv™ Listening Party requests now!
	6/19 4:51pm Joe R.: That’s the “I Don’t Wanna Cry” Keys, correct? I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only one who’d want to hear more from them. And at the risk of sounding greedy, any of the Chiswick selections too :) I am in utter amazement at your haul by the way!
	6/19 7:12pm efd: ↳ Joe R. @4:51 Yep, same Keys. I've had their LP on my list for a while now so I was happy to come across those singles, at least!
	6/20 9:54am love2laf: This looks interesting, I would request a cut from this: Various - Wonderful Time Out There - Stiff Records (1981) Ian Dury and the Blockheads are always good, but really, anything you pick from this LP would be awesome. 200 records, customs nightmare, how on earth did that go? Looking forward to the shows to come from this trip.
	6/20 12:08pm efd: ↳ love2laf @9:54 No nightmare at all! There was no inspection at all on the way back, I kept waiting for it and the next thing I knew I was through customs and in the arrivals area!
	6/20 12:15pm Mike Lupica: That Jeffrey Lee Pierce record is my eternal $5-record-which-I-always-see-but-already-own-and-so-I-buy-it-for-someone-else record store conquest. Surprised I haven't already bought a copy for you! In truth, it's a very uneven album (and I say this as a serious Gun Club/JLP fan), but the song "From Temptation to You" is damn near perfect. So that's my request!
	6/20 12:15pm Figgsrock: EFD-I just realized I won't be able to listen live, but my serious requests are that Godfathers remix. Pilot and something from Fun Boy Three, so you can mention this box set: www.slicingupeyeballs.com...
	1:27pm efd: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:15 I just realized that Jeffrey Lee Pierce record was listed incorrectly. I only found/bought the 7" that's included with the LP, but there's no separate listing on Discogs for the 7" so I just added the LP to my collection for now.
	1:32pm Mike Lupica: ↳ efd @1:27 Wait, there's a 7" that comes with that?!? I must inspect my copy when I get home!
	1:34pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Mike Lupica @1:32 Bah, looks like a different version from the one I have. In which case I change my request to something from the single!
	1:36pm efd: ↳ Mike Lupica @1:34 Noted!
	6:52pm clarke: i, too, am interested in the JLP bonus ep - unless it is Lupita Screams, i don't know what's on that??
	8:23pm he can jog: I'm very interested in the "Young Persons Guide to Compact" comp! I'd like to hear any tracks you'd prefer to play but The Popheads have a suitably curious pimple-adjacent name and a suitably obscure metadata trail that and I'd be curious to hear their contributions to this compilation. :-)
	8:32pm McGroovey: You went all the way to England to buy Dead Man's Curve? Well, I always love Nash the Slash record, but I have that one. I guess I'd like to hear the records I've never heard.
	8:34pm McGroovey: But I guess you don't know which records I've never heard. Start with the records YOU'VE never heard. I probably haven't heard those.
	8:52pm drr: Fascinated to hear a Roy C. record that you would go to England to get.
	8:53pm drr: Don't play "Wot?" Or do. Fine either way.
	9:02am love2laf: ↳ efd @12:08 That's fantastic! Every once in a while you get a nice surprise like that, and count yourself fortunate. Red letter day!
	12:00pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, Evan and all!
	12:00pm nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...
	12:01pm love2laf: This is going to be fun, and special, looking forward to it efd! Hello to all the fellow funksters out there. @nycmusicnerd how's the back today?
	12:01pm clarke: dynOmite people!!!! heyyy!! airhorn, etc!!
	12:02pm clarke: everybody's got a different story!!
	12:02pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! One vote for Buzzcocks, if you please.
	12:02pm Gregolomania: Hoping for Cheese and Onions.
	12:03pm slocker: I vote for whatever the most annoying record is
	12:03pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ love2laf @12:01 Better. I'm ok as long as I keep my body in a straight line. Once I try to turn I'm reminded of what I did on Monday.
	12:04pm Gregolomania: ↳ Song: "get your gun" by "zakatek" The guy that sang for Alan Parsons Project?
	12:04pm Danne D: hi EFD and everyone - any chance we hear some Starbreaker today? :D
	12:04pm Wallis...: Just got my tickets for the GBV 40th Anniversary show(s) in Dayton in September, so that....
	12:04pm nycmusicnerd: Everyone's going to hate me for this, but I vote for Rick Astley. >:)
	12:04pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:04 not gonna happen!
	12:05pm clarke: EFD = do what you DO, baby!! maybe you should take the rest of the day and play ALL them rekkids!!
	12:05pm slocker: I heard the Rick Astley was bought by mistake!
	12:05pm paddy in matawan: Thats a lot of records! Did you ship them or pack them?
	12:05pm efd: ↳ slocker @12:03 Too soon to say, I haven't even listened to them all yet!
	12:05pm Jessie: Hi efd. I would like to request Voxpop-Sleeping In A Stranger's Bed. Thank you.
	12:05pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:04 Then why did you buy it? :) He's gotten a bad rap over the years. As a singer he's criminally underrated.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 how's the back?
	12:06pm R2: ↳ Danne D @12:04 Seconded. 1st day of summer after all
	12:06pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @12:06 See above.
	12:06pm radioronan: Whoah..Wow. Welcome back Evan! Those suitcases musta weighted a ton! I need to set aside time just to read through list!
	12:06pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 see the note next to the asterisk below the list
	12:06pm Chris Hiatt: Fun, looks like a heckuva drop! My InterActiv™ Listening Party request: Godley & Creme - "Under Your Thumb" - Polydor (1981)
	12:07pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:06 HA! I was about to request that!
	12:08pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:06 Sounds like you got rickrolled at the record store, then.
	12:08pm love2laf: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:06 Glad to hear it's better, although it's really tough to get not turning, hope it mends fully soon.
	12:09pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:07 It's almost too irresistible!
	12:09pm Borg9: Art 4 Art's Sake
	12:10pm northguineahills: ↳ efd @12:05 it's only about 15 hours worth of music, if you start after your show, you can be done by 6 am tomorrow!
	12:10pm prof.fuzz: Afternoon y’all.
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:03 got it - hope it gets better!!
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:10 i vote he gets the air-time (and extra air for the horns)
	12:12pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 FuZZZZZZ - you in the 'mobile???
	12:12pm blee: ↳ Song: "going out wiv a punk" by "the punkettes" Can you please play Pigbag - Lend An Ear - Y Records (1983) Sounds like a squeel!
	12:12pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 Afternoon, prof.fuzz.
	12:13pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "lady (put the light on me)" by "dead end kids" Hilarious
	12:13pm paddy in matawan: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:05 That B side of the Rick Astley disc sounds like he was reaching real hard for another Never Gonna Give You Up.
	12:13pm love2laf: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:10 You note this playlist has footnote!
	12:14pm Andres: ↳ Song: "going out wiv a punk" by "the punkettes" Good aft, efd and all. Please tell me that someone wrote an answer song!
	12:14pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:13 Wait! That was supposed to be about the "punk" song!
	12:14pm prof.fuzz: In the fuZZZmobile with tim. About to go radio silent to have lunch with a couple of friends. Will definitely have to hit the archive later!
	12:14pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ paddy in matawan @12:13 What was the song title?
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:14 happy luncheon - no sammich!!
	12:14pm prof.fuzz: Hi Chris!
	12:14pm paddy in matawan: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:14 My Arms Keep Missing You
	12:15pm prof.fuzz: Thai lunch. No sammich.
	12:15pm clarke: was wondering where Pure Tim was
	12:15pm northguineahills: There have been a few times I've had records added to the ones I had on hold by the record staff, and I actually enjoyed the added ones better than the ones I picked out...
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" i have this album - but no single!
	12:15pm prof.fuzz: Tim’s eating more tacos…
	12:16pm prof.fuzz: I used to have this album…
	12:16pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:15 more than... you???
	12:16pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ paddy in matawan @12:14 I'll have to go back and listen to it. For a real interesting LIVE mashup, go to YouTube and look up "Foo Fighters Rick Astley Tokyo".
	12:16pm HarktheUmpire: Would love to hear the whole Buzzcocks' Spiral Scratch EP. And do everyone a favor and chuck that Herman Brood record out the window, will ya?
	12:17pm Bryant in TO: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" That's some cracklin' CanCon!
	12:17pm Bdogg & Felix: Homage to Cleveland’s / I-90 “Dead man’s curve”
	12:18pm clarke: vinyl resting place is scrattttccchyyy
	12:19pm clarke: and i have NO problem widdat!!
	12:19pm Krys O.: Mark Beer "Pretty"
	12:19pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" See also, Nash's Smoke on the Water, (we're an) American Band, etc etc
	12:19pm efd: Buzzcocks requesters: you're gonna have to come back next week!
	12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" Nash the Slash's next LP featured a track produced by one "Dan Lanois." He went on to earn some acclaim.
	12:20pm clarke: mawnin' suh!!
	12:20pm love2laf: ↳ efd @12:19 You mean you didn't bring all 200 records in with you? Ha!
	12:20pm prof.fuzz: For the buzzcocks, I’ll tune in next week…
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:20 Good afternoon, suh!
	12:21pm Danne D: needed to sneak a Starbreaker EP into Evan's bag ;) (also on the app so had to jump to web to see the note) anyway thanks for being back the treats EFD and happy solstice :D
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:19 dan lanoise - the guy who started neil young into mediocrity??
	12:22pm Bryant in TO: Loving this set so far. Feels like red shag carpet, dark wood-paneled walls, cigarette smoke, and spilled ale
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" Oh The b-side of Dead Man's Curve is a non-LP track. I've never heard it. I should teach that down.
	12:22pm love2laf: ↳ Song: "what a waste" by "ian dury" Thank you efd, love me some Ian Dury!
	12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:22 Track
	12:23pm clarke: teach it mcg!!
	12:23pm Bryant in TO: ↳ Bryant in TO @12:22 And maybe toasted cheese sandwiches
	12:23pm love2laf: ↳ Bryant in TO @12:23 Looking around, but I don't see you in my house...
	12:24pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:21 I never checked out "Le Noise" but I'll take your word that it was not top-tier Neil.
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:24 it wasn't all THAT bad, but the following albums - ugh. he's come out of that, now.
	12:24pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:21 Yeah, Daniel Lanois got his start in the FM/Nash orbit. FM wasn't a household name in the US, but they were big in Canada.
	12:25pm Frank In Queens: Hey efd. Great haul!
	12:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "what a waste" by "ian dury" i only have the version ian did w/ curve in '93...
	12:26pm prof.fuzz: Lunchtime! Catch y’all later!
	12:27pm Desko2000: Something off the Pilot LP s'il vous plait!!!
	12:27pm Madwood: I think the singer in London Underground runs the excellent Pressure Sounds reggae label these days
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @12:25 missed your show again!! archives!!
	12:30pm luka: oh hey it’s efd
	12:31pm Andres: ↳ Song: "dead man's curve" by "nash the slash" That was along way to go for CanCon. ;)
	12:32pm Desko2000: Ok once again...how did you get through customs? lol
	12:32pm G: I remember Wizzard - "See My Baby Jive" - Harvest (1973) being mimed to on Top of the Pops while it was on the UK charts. An early entry in that 70s "50s revival" trend.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ G @12:32 but..i don't think that is on any album
	12:34pm Gurldoggie: I buy records when I travel as well, but I'm always nervous about how they'll survive the journey home. Did you check them as baggage? Or carry them on the plane?
	12:34pm G: ↳ Desko2000 @12:32 Customs agent: "Look at this old junk. No actual value. Pass."
	12:35pm Joe R.: ↳ efd @7:12 Thanks Evan! And thanks for the Stiff comp spin too.
	12:35pm clarke: @Hughie: i see GBV is playing asheville in rocktobah. hmm....
	12:37pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:35 Noted! Saw them last summer when they were in Carrboro -- do I want to drive 3 1/2 hrs to A'ville? That's a hmm...
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:37 hey, if i drive the 10 hours...
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:37 ...then you are a fanatic!
	12:39pm clarke: it's the closest they'll be coming. and yes. i might be a fanatic.
	12:40pm Brian in UK: Hello efd, glad you had a good/expensive trip over here. See you have Toni Basil's Mickey. The flip on Radialchoice was Hanging Around by Tony Conway from Mood Six. Useless fact, I used to work with Tony.
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:38 their latest "single" is pretty boffo.
	12:41pm efd: ↳ Brian in UK @12:40 That's exactly why I bought that single! I've loved that Mood Six song since I was doing college radio!
	12:41pm efd: ↳ efd @12:41 honestly one of the records I was most hoping to find
	12:42pm Brian in UK: ↳ efd @12:41 My copy is barely playable these days. Shame it was not on the flip for America.
	12:43pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:40 Pollard keeps finding ways to write those magical tunes. Amazing that he's kept it up, unlike say, his hero, Pete Townshend, whose well eventually dried up.
	12:44pm clarke: i like that last who album!!
	12:44pm MelaniR: Hi Evan! My timing in perfect! Thanks. I mean who doesn't love this song? It's perfect.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ Song: "another girl, another planet" by "the only ones" is this my copy?!?
	12:45pm Andrea C from the app: Hi EFD and everyone!!! Summertime!!! Live this tune!
	12:45pm egould: ↳ efd @12:41 @efd I was looking up obscure bands that have been played on WFMU, and Einstein’s Riceboys popped into my head. And sure enough, you have played a couple tracks. Congratulations, you are a vinyl junkie.
	12:46pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:44 Let's just say Pollard's well seems amazingly full, even at his relentless clip.
	12:46pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:46 he went thru a non-special period, there, but this new one is BACK
	12:47pm Brian in UK: YIPEE
	12:47pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Thanks efd for the Only Ones track! Big smile
	12:47pm swivs: EFD has transcended vinyl "junkie" by now. Pretty sure he's OD'ed, ELP'ed and XTC'ed several times
	12:50pm Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "hanging around" by "toni basil" efd, I can imagine your face when as you were flipping through the singles this one appeared. Big grin.
	12:51pm listener james from westwood: Aw yiss Steinski!
	12:52pm clarke: i wonder if Fuzz is playing this at the lunch table?? ha ha.
	12:52pm Gurldoggie: Love me some Steinski. This was my subliminal request!
	12:53pm clarke: get down!!
	12:53pm efd: ↳ Brian in UK @12:50 You know it! Second day of the trip and already a success!
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: So much goin' on, on this track. Love it.
	12:55pm Brian in UK: Think maybe Kid Koala was influenced by Steinski.
	12:55pm Andrea C: 2Efd so cool listeners can pick a song! Can I request Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas - "I'll Keep You Satisfied" please?
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Song: "band of gold" by "chanter sisters" mondegreen: thought it said now it's pseu braun
	12:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "band of gold" by "chanter sisters" I always wished this song was a bit more explicit about why they stayed in separate rooms that night.
	12:57pm clarke: you don't know?
	12:58pm G: So, this song was redone as something between reggae and disco barely over five years after being a big pop/soul hit.
	12:58pm clarke: apparently.
	12:58pm Jack McGuire: Thanks EFD!
	12:59pm Krys O.: ↳ G @12:58 en.wikipedia.org...
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Song: "we're having all the fun" by "fun boy three" Figgs will be happy!!
	1:00pm prof.fuzz: hey again... my lunch mates had to cancel.
	1:01pm blee: dear god, Bilbo, what have you done!?!?!
	1:02pm Krys O.: Doreen Chanter was one of the backing vocalists for Roxy Music when Bryan wore his military-styled outfit: www.gettyimages.co.uk...
	1:04pm efd: I know there are a lot of requests I didn't get to, even pre-show ones -- sorry! I'll get you next week!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:00 doh - sammich!!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:00 hope there's nothing wrong.
	1:05pm Borg9: Bilbo take the effing ring off!!
	1:05pm clarke: handy is on vacay, btw. not sure where tim is.
	1:06pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and fans. Late to the party; I'm retired now and can't get used to my new schedule. I see you played Lenny Zakatek's early single, what a find! Dudley Moore and 10cc had something to do with that, I understand. Art For Art's Sake is a great song, although it's a bit long for commercial radio.
