	10:12pm Joe B: thanks for the plug EFD!
	10:15pm Uncle Michael: What's up? The Cubs came bck from down 5-0 against the reds, posting the winning run with Aroldis Chapman on the mound. THAT'S what's up/ Hi Holly! Howzit?
	10:16pm coelacanth: greetings efd and Funky Folk ...coming in right at that chord progression i thought it was "needles and pins"...which would be okay!
	10:17pm coelacanth: (but that eyelids song was beyond okay!)
	10:19pm Holly in NC: 'zit's great, now that efd's playing The Dream Syndicate! god I love this lp. @efd - Bonus tracks worth a (second) repurchase?
	10:20pm Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer: Whose derivative?
	10:23pm Uncle Michael: this ball business is the shiz
	10:27pm Uncle Michael: That's some cover.
	10:27pm coelacanth: just your warning is cracking me up! ...but now i have to look it up!
	10:30pm Stevel: Missing Dream Syndicate=1 point off. Off to punish myself.
	10:30pm efd: don't say I didn't warn you, coelacanth!
	10:31pm efd: boooo Stevel!
	10:33pm marc: "Marvin, I Love You" is a Love Song For A Robot
	10:33pm Stevel: OK, I'm back. Hey Holly, Uncle Michael, Joe B, efd and all y'all. Tuning into the boards always makes me smile.
	10:33pm joe!: NSFW, yup. Sheepish smile when you buy that record, or just sunglasses and a stone face? Yikes.
	10:36pm efd: "uh, yeah, I'll take a pack of Winstons, uh, an ice cream soda, the Ball single, a comb..."
	10:36pm Stevel: Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllll!!!!!!
	10:37pm Holly in NC: Where is this record cover? I am not finding anything "interesting". 3 cheers for Starbreaker!
	10:38pm Uncle Michael: EFD, is that copy of the Ball single one of the limited edition of 300?
	10:38pm Uncle Michael: You've been warned. www.discogs.com...
	10:40pm efd: I didn't notice anything about a limited edition, and frankly I don't think I want to check that closely. But maybe?
	10:44pm Stevel: That's a very complex piece of art. Contradictory, yet to the point. Or something.
	10:44pm coelacanth: okay THAT'S interesting! (i wasn't coming up with anything either.)
	10:44pm Stevel: ...and thank you, UM. You always come through.
	10:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' 7" ' doesn't necessarily help w/ a websearch, either...yes, interestingly, no balls...
	10:46pm Holly in NC: @UM - Thank you. I was expected something goatse level given the hype! Now that DO NOT GOOGLE.
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: The honor is to serve.
	10:47pm Stevel: Where is Ball from? Are they a noun or a verb? So many quesitons (legit trippy video for that song. RRN63: Precisely!
	10:47pm Uncle Michael: They're Swedes.
	10:48pm Stevel: "Limited edition 300 copies. Includes an insert" [snicker]
	10:51pm rsj: big chair, as played a couple weeks ago, has become a breakout hit at our house
	10:52pm Uncle Michael: I must close my eyes. They're watery due to an unfortunate summer cold. Thank you for the music, Evan.
	10:53pm marc: No dropping the disco ball I hope
	10:54pm coelacanth: oh Holly! don't do that to people! someone blessed me with that image as i emerged from the shower once. i was afraid to use my computer for a long time!
	11:03pm efd: hey rsj, glad that song stuck with you! It's catchy like that.
	11:10pm joe!: OK, so check out a version of The Sound of Summer by Hungary's Neoton Familia. Kinda cable-access ABBA. Cover art for their song Oh Happy Day also worth a look. I'm taking an extra Xanax and going to bed.
	11:11pm efd: I have that version too, joe! Played it a few years ago, but it's due for another spin.
	11:12pm efd: IT'S GREAT IN ANY LANGUAGE!!
	11:14pm joe!: Gotta love a band that started out by finishing 2nd in a 2 band contest. God love 'em, probably beat most career options in Soviet-era Hungary.
	11:30pm Danne D: Hi EFD and everyone :) HI Holly :)
	11:30pm flashback: Hello everybody.
	11:32pm Danne D: Happy I Caught Aharon in the EFDHHDYDTYFBL even if it's just for one day :)
	11:35pm efd: you've got to take your victories where you can find them, Danne.
	11:36pm Holly in NC: Hi Danne! I am fading fast, if I crash before midnight thanks for a great show efd!
	11:37pm Īke: I'm really enjoying the synth-y turn this show has taken.
	11:37pm efd: my pleasure as always, Holly!
	11:42pm Michael from the Left Coast: Pronunciation was fine and correct
	11:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: Take care, Holly!
	11:44pm Michael from the Left Coast: Actually your pronunciation was the americanization--the actual pronunciation is the from the throat "cha" as in Chutzpah for Charigim
	11:49pm efd: ah, noted. Thanks Michael!
	11:50pm Michael from the Left Coast: Like CHanukah. Same thing--although the way it is spelled in English it is hard to tell
	11:50pm JakeGould: Please no more discussion of the guttural “ch”.
	11:51pm Stevel: Killer production on Sleaford Mods. Putting them on my to-see list. Hi Ja-ch!
	11:51pm efd: but I was just about to mention CHallah!
	11:53pm JakeGould: @efd: You can mention Challah. I’m fine with that and who am I to say on your show? But pronunciation of the guttural “ch” is so pedantic.
	11:54pm JakeGould: Just keep rockin’!
	11:55pm Stevel: Gorilla Angreb is my new jam.
	11:55pm Ike: Am I hallucinating or is there a bit of "Holiday in Cambodia" on this one?
	11:56pm Stevel: Ike: I'll side with a breath or two of it.
	11:56pm JakeGould: @Ike: Somewhat “Holiday in Cambodia”-ish.
	11:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - Thx for another great one efd. Appreciated.
	11:57pm Danne D: Thanks for a great show as always Evan :) Have a good night everyone :) Take care sleepy Holly :)
	11:57pm JakeGould: @Stevel: When you pronounce “Gorilla Angreb,” make sure you roll the “gre” so it’s like “Gorilla AngKrCHeb.”
	11:59pm efd: for the record I've don't think I've ever shied away from pedantry when it comes to pronunciation on this show!
	11:59pm Stevel: Duly noted (avoiding heavy consonants.)
	11:59pm JakeGould: @efd: “Pedantry” is a pretty decent band. At least their first 2 albums.
	11:59pm Stevel: ...and yer killin' me, Jake.
	12:00am Stevel: Pederasty, not such a well-liked outfit. Great show.
	12:00am coelacanth: Ike i heard that too. Thanks Evan ciao y'all

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from July 22, 2015

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.

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!
