	10:41pm Loretta: @RRN63 ~ is that book new?
	10:41pm Danne D: Flawed Yahoo Poll for obvious reasons regarding Best Summer Song: music.yahoo.com...
	10:43pm efd: steve, no, not the b-side of the promo version! I just got a stock copy via eBay!
	10:43pm Holly in NC: @Loretta - 2010 (I happen to have a copy at my side!) Great book, highly recommended.
	10:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loretta: www.amazon.com... - mostly about Patti & Mapplethorpe - early days in NYC.
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: I thought Pharoah Overlord was Endless Boogie. Now I think Carlton Melton is Pharoah Overlord.
	10:47pm Loretta: @Holly ~ thanks!! I'm trying to find things to keep me occupied in this horrific heat..... So. FL in the summertime is a beast!!!
	10:47pm Barkevious Shabazz: Yahoorrendous..

	10:49pm Loretta: @RRN63 ~ thanks for the link. I knew her back in the Mercer St. Arts Ctr. days ~ kool lady!
	10:50pm steve: that Yahoo list might be acceptable if only it stopped in the 80s
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: This is great too.
	10:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loretta: !! - Have you seen 'Dream of Life' documentary ? I think Patti is where a lotta What It's All About comes together! ...G.Plata still great!
	10:53pm KP: Ohmy
	10:53pm KP: Ohmy
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Manatees, yes
	11:01pm Danne D: The "in stereo" bit really makes that intro efd :)
	11:03pm Loretta: RRN63 ~ no, I have not seen the doc., but will look into it for sure.. thanks!
	11:07pm Uncle Michael: efd is killing it.
	11:07pm Uncle Michael: Hawkwindesque.
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HaHa! WhiteHills er messin' w/ my head again!...
	11:12pm Uncle Michael: Damn...this...damn...
	11:13pm efd: Hoping to have White Hills live on the show later in the year when they have a break from touring.
	11:18pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Axemen sound like Pavement/Sonic Youth love child. I don't know why they say "love child." Nothing in the equation ever particularly points to love.
	11:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a night of passion rather than formal commitment - obviously...
	11:21pm Uncle Michael: Good god, Evan. You're killing me.
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Wh♂ do ya think Sparked free fall's inspiration...
	11:22pm efd: My apologies, Uncle Michael.
	11:23pm Uncle Michael: Is it just me or is it all kinda 1979 in here?
	11:23pm Jacoby Ellsbury: Yo man, I like the way you say "Le Poisson Rouge".
	11:24pm Uncle Michael: Head East, Brownsville Station and Bad Company.
	11:25pm 12539: I'd know those kid sounds anywhere.
	11:25pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Cool, humid weather says "1979" to me. It's a little drier tonight, like 1981.
	11:26pm Danne D: Thanks for hearing the call Evan :)
	11:26pm efd: GET READY FOR THE NEVER-BEFORE HEARD B-SIDE!!!1!!one!!
	11:26pm Danne D: Zomg! :)
	11:32pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Jacoby, you're going to love it in New York next year.
	11:33pm Danne D: stopping
	11:33pm Uncle Michael: I like it better than the a-side.
	11:34pm Danne D: I'm pretending I didn't read Uncle Michael's post
	11:35pm sean: Wow, that turned out to be a nice treat!
	11:35pm Danne D: thought it's great :) If the NHL Coyotes ever move out of Glendale you'll need to keep this song in mind EFD
	11:35pm steve: holy moly this is great. beautiful production too
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like how very Poppy yet Complex it is.
	11:35pm HQ10: This is actually a Stamford Bridge/John Carter tune off their album "First Day of Your Life". It's also on the "Measure for Measure" comp that RPM put out 10 years ago. That said, it's a damn great song in its own right.
	11:35pm Holly in NC: I agree with Uncle Michael....
	11:36pm Danne D: :)
	11:36pm efd: I like it, but not as much as the a-side. But it's still pretty good!
	11:36pm Droll: No big hook, no French horn, can't really dance to it, but it does have the dreamy outro. I give it a 26.
	11:36pm Uncle Michael: Vocal reminded me a bit of some Ian Gomm records.
	11:37pm Holly in NC: I'm gonna say again, I LOVE this new Mantles lp
	11:37pm Danne D: Good point Droll, in addition to being the greatest Summer Song ever, that song is the greatest rock song with French Horn ever :)
	11:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - maybe Droll - but it doesn't overstay its' welcome.
	11:37pm Danne D: This Mantles is great, I agree Holly :)
	11:37pm holland oats: me likey
	11:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - pretty good segue for never hearing it before...
	11:39pm Uncle Michael: I'm all in. Night folks. Truly some killer sets tonight and thanks for the Wimps, efd.
	11:39pm efd: thanks for noticing, RRN63. I was pretty pleased with it too, if I do say so myself.
	11:39pm efd: thanks for listening, Uncle Michael! See you Friday!
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ta UM !
	11:40pm Uncle Michael: Yep! See ya!
	11:40pm Droll: DD, Pshaw! Entwistle played brass all over The Who records, notable French horn on Pictures of Lilly!
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wh♂ !
	11:42pm steve: Beatles For No One might have a better french horn solo, imo. i think its a french horn
	11:42pm Holly in NC: Wow! Digging Pet Shop Boys!
	11:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yes!: George Martin wrote about writing a note yer not supposed to be able to do on it - & him & Paul waiting to see what the player did...no problem as it turned out...
	11:45pm Holly in NC: Now THAT was a kick ass segue xo
	11:46pm Danne D: Another great song :)
	11:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - altho' Entwhistle woulda predated that a little on 1st Wh♂ album ('Circles' aka 'Instant Party')...
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he played it himself...
	11:47pm Danne D: @Droll yeah :) but i'll still go with Starbreaker blatant EFD pander
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he spelled it 'Entwistle'...
	11:50pm Holly in NC: holyshit , efd ! clapping & dancing
	11:51pm Danne D: I'm gonna pack up (hate that the starbucks starts mopping before close - and frankly I always keep waiting for the mop handle to go through my computer) thanks for a wonderful show as always EFD :) Congrats on moving into 2nd in the fantasy league (as of right now) now we're all chasing Trader Aharon! G'night Funk Friends :)
	11:52pm Mike Sin: I pulled the car over right before EFD played the Starbreaker b-side -- It was my duty as a responsible driver. Especially in Jersey. I quite enjoyed that tune! Roll on, Evan!
	11:56pm 12539: Thanks, efd.
	11:56pm efd: Thanks a bunch for listening everybody! See you next week!
	11:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oo - solid a. Germs-ian. - ☆ed a ridiculous %age of this week's Show/Episode. Better ☆ the whole thing.
	11:59pm Mikey: back to watching the Mets

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from August 14, 2013

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!

	10:03pm Danne D: You're never tacky, EFD
	10:05pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood: I am so glad Lizzy made it to WFMU. She did some crowd surfing at SMMR BMMR this year.

	10:08pm amEdeo: Did you see the present I left you, Evan?
	10:10pm fleep: Palpable excitement.
	10:11pm efd: amEdeo, I did! But only when was closing everything out before coming in to the studio. I approve!
	10:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah Thx Wimps & FMU - billions of Rockbands - but songs/arrangements/delivery like that a little thinner on the ground...

	10:29pm Uncle Michael: You know...I never really listened to QotSA. My younger friends love them. This is damned good.
	10:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah - song&arrangement again...
	10:30pm Danne D: Barkevious :)
	10:33pm Holly in NC: oh, drat. (re AL)
	10:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he must be the one Patti Smith wrote about in 'Just Kids' ?? I was just thinking today how much I liked that book...
	10:36pm Ike: Hello hello helloooooo
	10:38pm Danne D: Hiya Ike :)
	10:38pm steve: i assume its not the B side of promo version of Sound of Summer which is... also Sounds of Summer. not that i don't love Sound of Summer more and more every time i hear it!
	10:39pm Uncle Michael: ef'd up?
	10:40pm Holly in NC: Here's Allen Lanier on keyboard backing Jim Carroll live "People Who Died" (1981) www.youtube.com...
	10:41pm Loretta: @RRN63 ~ is that book new?
	10:41pm Danne D: Flawed Yahoo Poll for obvious reasons regarding Best Summer Song: music.yahoo.com...
	10:43pm efd: steve, no, not the b-side of the promo version! I just got a stock copy via eBay!
	10:43pm Holly in NC: @Loretta - 2010 (I happen to have a copy at my side!) Great book, highly recommended.
	10:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loretta: www.amazon.com... - mostly about Patti & Mapplethorpe - early days in NYC.
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: I thought Pharoah Overlord was Endless Boogie. Now I think Carlton Melton is Pharoah Overlord.
	10:47pm Loretta: @Holly ~ thanks!! I'm trying to find things to keep me occupied in this horrific heat..... So. FL in the summertime is a beast!!!
	10:47pm Barkevious Shabazz: Yahoorrendous..
	10:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: UM: ...this one just this side of Spacemen3...
	10:49pm Loretta: @RRN63 ~ thanks for the link. I knew her back in the Mercer St. Arts Ctr. days ~ kool lady!
	10:50pm steve: that Yahoo list might be acceptable if only it stopped in the 80s
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: This is great too.
	10:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Loretta: !! - Have you seen 'Dream of Life' documentary ? I think Patti is where a lotta What It's All About comes together! ...G.Plata still great!
	10:53pm KP: Ohmy
	10:53pm KP: Ohmy
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Manatees, yes
	11:01pm Danne D: The "in stereo" bit really makes that intro efd :)
	11:03pm Loretta: RRN63 ~ no, I have not seen the doc., but will look into it for sure.. thanks!
	11:07pm Uncle Michael: efd is killing it.
	11:07pm Uncle Michael: Hawkwindesque.
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: HaHa! WhiteHills er messin' w/ my head again!...
	11:12pm Uncle Michael: Damn...this...damn...
	11:13pm efd: Hoping to have White Hills live on the show later in the year when they have a break from touring.
	11:18pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Axemen sound like Pavement/Sonic Youth love child. I don't know why they say "love child." Nothing in the equation ever particularly points to love.
	11:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a night of passion rather than formal commitment - obviously...
	11:21pm Uncle Michael: Good god, Evan. You're killing me.
	11:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Wh♂ do ya think Sparked free fall's inspiration...
	11:22pm efd: My apologies, Uncle Michael.
	11:23pm Uncle Michael: Is it just me or is it all kinda 1979 in here?
	11:23pm Jacoby Ellsbury: Yo man, I like the way you say "Le Poisson Rouge".
	11:24pm Uncle Michael: Head East, Brownsville Station and Bad Company.
	11:25pm 12539: I'd know those kid sounds anywhere.
	11:25pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Cool, humid weather says "1979" to me. It's a little drier tonight, like 1981.
	11:26pm Danne D: Thanks for hearing the call Evan :)
	11:26pm efd: GET READY FOR THE NEVER-BEFORE HEARD B-SIDE!!!1!!one!!
	11:26pm Danne D: Zomg! :)
	11:32pm Pete from Boston (and NJ a few more days): Jacoby, you're going to love it in New York next year.
	11:33pm Danne D: stopping
	11:33pm Uncle Michael: I like it better than the a-side.
	11:34pm Danne D: I'm pretending I didn't read Uncle Michael's post
	11:35pm sean: Wow, that turned out to be a nice treat!
	11:35pm Danne D: thought it's great :) If the NHL Coyotes ever move out of Glendale you'll need to keep this song in mind EFD
	11:35pm steve: holy moly this is great. beautiful production too
	11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like how very Poppy yet Complex it is.
	11:35pm HQ10: This is actually a Stamford Bridge/John Carter tune off their album "First Day of Your Life". It's also on the "Measure for Measure" comp that RPM put out 10 years ago. That said, it's a damn great song in its own right.
	11:35pm Holly in NC: I agree with Uncle Michael....
	11:36pm Danne D: :)
	11:36pm efd: I like it, but not as much as the a-side. But it's still pretty good!
	11:36pm Droll: No big hook, no French horn, can't really dance to it, but it does have the dreamy outro. I give it a 26.
	11:36pm Uncle Michael: Vocal reminded me a bit of some Ian Gomm records.
	11:37pm Holly in NC: I'm gonna say again, I LOVE this new Mantles lp
	11:37pm Danne D: Good point Droll, in addition to being the greatest Summer Song ever, that song is the greatest rock song with French Horn ever :)
	11:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - maybe Droll - but it doesn't overstay its' welcome.
	11:37pm Danne D: This Mantles is great, I agree Holly :)
	11:37pm holland oats: me likey
	11:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - pretty good segue for never hearing it before...
	11:39pm Uncle Michael: I'm all in. Night folks. Truly some killer sets tonight and thanks for the Wimps, efd.
	11:39pm efd: thanks for noticing, RRN63. I was pretty pleased with it too, if I do say so myself.
	11:39pm efd: thanks for listening, Uncle Michael! See you Friday!
	11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ta UM !
	11:40pm Uncle Michael: Yep! See ya!
	11:40pm Droll: DD, Pshaw! Entwistle played brass all over The Who records, notable French horn on Pictures of Lilly!
	11:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wh♂ !
	11:42pm steve: Beatles For No One might have a better french horn solo, imo. i think its a french horn
	11:42pm Holly in NC: Wow! Digging Pet Shop Boys!
	11:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh yes!: George Martin wrote about writing a note yer not supposed to be able to do on it - & him & Paul waiting to see what the player did...no problem as it turned out...
	11:45pm Holly in NC: Now THAT was a kick ass segue xo
	11:46pm Danne D: Another great song :)
	11:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - altho' Entwhistle woulda predated that a little on 1st Wh♂ album ('Circles' aka 'Instant Party')...
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he played it himself...
	11:47pm Danne D: @Droll yeah :) but i'll still go with Starbreaker blatant EFD pander
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& he spelled it 'Entwistle'...
	11:50pm Holly in NC: holyshit , efd ! clapping & dancing
	11:51pm Danne D: I'm gonna pack up (hate that the starbucks starts mopping before close - and frankly I always keep waiting for the mop handle to go through my computer) thanks for a wonderful show as always EFD :) Congrats on moving into 2nd in the fantasy league (as of right now) now we're all chasing Trader Aharon! G'night Funk Friends :)
	11:52pm Mike Sin: I pulled the car over right before EFD played the Starbreaker b-side -- It was my duty as a responsible driver. Especially in Jersey. I quite enjoyed that tune! Roll on, Evan!
	11:56pm 12539: Thanks, efd.
	11:56pm efd: Thanks a bunch for listening everybody! See you next week!
	11:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oo - solid a. Germs-ian. - ☆ed a ridiculous %age of this week's Show/Episode. Better ☆ the whole thing.
