	9:21pm efd: hi Joe!
	9:23pm Handy Haversack: slugluv, Bagpipe is happily resting up after a few days of eating deer poop in the north woods! A successful trip for all concerned. Joe B! My laptop died, but as soon as I have a way to get pix off the camera, I have some good ones to send you of the 3CM Beer Koozie in action!
	9:24pm efd: Parq I just found out about him when I picked up that LP over the weekend. Surprising too, since he was a big deal in the Boston scene.
	9:24pm Hoboken Jack: Summoned from an ill-timed nap by STAG! Hello EFD, skeleton, Joe, Sam, Gaylord, uncle Michael, SteveL, Handy we missed ye on the boards, everyone!

	9:27pm Steve Mack: This track is KILLER.
	9:27pm efd: whoops, forgot to add the song to the playlist! sorry about that!
	9:28pm Steve Mack: Hey - how come I can't register and get a groovy photo like all you cool cats? I try every week. :(
	9:29pm Gaylord Fields: Good evening, Jack!
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Where's my electric fan?!
	9:29pm efd: oh weird, Steve! What happens you try to register?
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: I completely forgot about this one.
	9:30pm RobinSays: Ah, "Eugene." Quick--name some other funny disco songs...
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: I love Eugene.
	9:32pm brycepunk1: Evan, Sir Funk... I have to say again I love my Wednesday nights for your show. I only get the first 90 minutes cause of work Thursday, but man.. every single week you are ON! playing crazy joe now just kicking me with memories of being 8 years old.. thank you!
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: @RobinSays: Lady Bug by Bumblebee Unlimited!
	9:32pm slugluv1313: Disco Duck . . . and yes, i was alive when one could not escape that song!
	9:33pm Matt Fiveash: I remember hearing Eugene on Dr. Demento!
	9:33pm Handy Haversack: Steve Mack, you're on a computer, not a phone, right? I think it doesn't work the same with the phone app. Also, I know some folx have had trouble signing in if running through a VPN, though not sure if that applies.
	9:34pm RobinSays: Hey Kat, I'll have to check out Lady Bug. Slugluv1313, yes, I was around when Disco Duck was a hit myself:)
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: Garbage Skeleton is definitely going in the D&D game, Matt.
	9:35pm Matt Warwick: Signal is SMOOOOOOOTH as eggs
	9:35pm ultradamno: Yeah, you can't sign in on the app.
	9:35pm Steve Mack: Oh right... my VPN... let me try to drop off that and see if I have any better luck.
	9:37pm Matt Warwick: @handy the first time I was on WFMU was to play D&D on the air.
	9:37pm Joe B: and the rest is history!
	9:38pm Joe B: might be the copy I traded in to Princeton in 1989
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: @Matt, Kate is always telling me to bug Ken about running a D&D show. But I'm a lazy, lazy DM (well, lazy, lazy person). That said, we play every Sunday over Zoom -- let me know if you ever want to sit in on a game! You'll know how to defeat the Garbage Skeletons -- distract them with cheese!
	9:41pm Faye: hey Gaylord! miss ya
	9:43pm Faye: also hi matt joe b & FIveash- loved your show earlier this evening was BLASTING IT
	9:44pm Steve from Stag!: Can't tell if it was the VPN or not checking the email box, but I'm in!
	9:44pm Joe B: welcome Steve!
	9:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi Evan. Thanks for playing us (The Prof.Fuzz 63) on your show recently. Appreciate it!

	9:57pm Joe B: thanks Gaylord, will have to go back, missed it!
	9:57pm efd: I believe what Gaylord believes. Early August maybe? Hi Kenzo, you've come to the right place!
	9:58pm Matt Warwick: Wow this chat is full of everyone I miss
	9:58pm Parq: Wow, a star-studded comments column tonight.
	9:59pm efd: apologies to everyone commenting who I didn't personally say hello to, it got busy over here!
	9:59pm efd: but I'm very happy to see you all!
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Crazy Joe will comment any minute now...
	10:00pm Gaylord Fields: @efd: You can always say hello to us collectively. I can't see anyone ever objecting to that.
	10:01pm efd: great idea, Gaylord! Hi everyone! Thanks for tuning in tonight, each and every one of you equally (except Faye who is head and shoulders above the rest).
	10:02pm Joe B: as bugs bunny would say, thaaaat's the old pepper!
	10:02pm Aitch: Love this old Whirly World. Also see the Michael Hutchence collab and early Models, Andrew Duffield's band

	10:22pm efd: that's what I like to hear!
	10:23pm Joe B: is this an album title or the name of my autobiography?
	10:24pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, folks.
	10:24pm Steve from Stag!: Perfect - Steven Bradley goes on my wish list for Bandcamp Friday!!!!
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	10:34pm mariano: Handy, how's it going! Find a replacement laptop yet?
	10:38pm patrick321: Heard this rose city thing a few times on other wfmu shows. I have to pick this up.
	10:41pm sufferwords: this Rose City is every hit of weed I smoked as a 13 year old
	10:43pm Joe B: on my list as well
	10:44pm Rob W: Rose City Band is a fairly new project from Ripley Johnson of Moon Duo and Wooden Shjips fame.
	10:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, I ordered one and s thing to try save the data off the dead one. Advice from friends invaluable in this!
	10:51pm mariano: Good to know, Handy. I always keep everything double- and triple-backed up on- and offline in case my rig decides to kick the bucket.
	10:52pm Joe B: thanks Rob
	10:53pm efd: the high-wattage commenters keep on coming here on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show! Hi Rob!
	10:53pm Handy Haversack: My plan is to use this new laptop to go back in time and do that very thing, Mariano.
	10:53pm efd: solid plan, Handy.
	10:56pm JM: Great show as always tonight. Thanks, EFD. Hoping everyone is having fun wherever you are.
	10:58pm efd: thanks for listening, JM!
	10:58pm Handy Haversack: That's why one upgrades the hardware, efd. That's science, isn't it?
	10:58pm mariano: If only you'd come to me first, Handy, then the men who torched your fruit stand would be suffering this very day... er, I mean, I would've told you about the importance of backing up your data. Sorry, two conversations at once.
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: There's always money in the banana stand, Mariano.
	11:01pm Roberto: I just ate a banana!
	11:02pm mariano: And you're telling me all that's just a coincidence?!
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: New laptop already working! Well done, future HH!
	11:03pm Joe B: ha handy!
	11:03pm Rtintera: Show is on fire
	11:05pm Chop Scott: Good Wednesday Night EFD! Arriving late...

	11:07pm spodiodi: HIT ME!
	11:08pm spodiodi: so good. so so good
	11:08pm Stevel: We can take it!
	11:08pm Stevel: Schnooks. Amirite?
	11:08pm Handy Haversack: I hear only air horns now.
	11:08pm spodiodi: someone needs to make an air horn sad trombone for fb
	11:09pm Matt Warwick: I honestly was hoping for MORE air horn
	11:09pm Handy Haversack: Matt -- That. Arranged. Can be!
	11:13pm Chop Scott: I truly miss seeing you around the station Matt, and so many others. Cheers!
	11:14pm Mike Sin: My kitty Kat and I both enjoyed that Shadow Show track.
	11:15pm Joe B: shadow show are so great
	11:15pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): <3 this steve wynn track
	11:15pm Stevel: Steve Wynn is one versatile SOB! Enjoying this cover very much.
	11:18pm Matt Warwick: SCOOOOOTTT! Miss ya too buddy! You've missed so much. I eat apples now!
	11:23pm Joe B: apples? stopped making cookies?
	11:24pm spodiodi: i'm eating a cookie as we speak, but have way more apples
	11:25pm Handy Haversack: I live in the Big Apples!
	11:25pm spodiodi: don't mind the maggots!
	11:25pm spodiodi: look at me
	11:27pm Stevel: Teased by the touch of civilization.
	11:27pm Matt Warwick: @Joe Oh no. Still making/eating PLENTY of cookies. Now I just sometimes eat apples.
	11:27pm thesecoronalives: joel mccrea! 'foreign correspondence' feels very poignant atm..
	11:27pm spodiodi: btw, may The Weasels leave your new machine in peace, Handy!
	11:27pm Gaylord Fields: I went to load the dishwasher and transfer wet laundry from the washer to the dryer, and I missed the airhorn! Blur were right: Modern life IS rubbish!
	11:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think Matt would enjoy hearing some Peter Holsapple, if you have any around.
	11:28pm spodiodi: it was pretty sweet, Gaylord... i lost count!
	11:28pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, spod! They should stick to ripping my flesh like they're supposed to!
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: @spodiodi: Thank heaven for the archives! Modern conveniences of life, you are forgiven — for now.
	11:29pm efd: I hope you learned your lesson, Gaylord!
	11:30pm Gaylord Fields: I did, efd: airhorn > tidiness
	11:31pm spodiodi: spoken like a man from utopia, Handy archives ftw, Gaylord!
	11:31pm Stevel: Gaylord: Somehow, that makes sense.
	11:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Stevel: I'll put you down for a bumper sticker.
	11:34pm Stevel: You know I'd use it.
	11:34pm Joe B: maybe some echo on the airhorn next week
	11:35pm Handy Haversack: Joe B, can the system even handle that?!
	11:35pm Joe B: i think studio efd is prepared!
	11:38pm Stevel: But, the 11 CD set might be what I really want, not having collected anything but the live Dream Syndicate album.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: I really, really hate "The Air That I Breathe" and always have, but I couldn't hate Steve Wynn's version.
	11:40pm Stevel: A friend of mine got to record with Jim Diamond. She remains a big fan.
	11:41pm efd: @Kat interesting! I've loved that song since I first heard it, and I also love Steve Wynn's version.
	11:51pm Kat in Chicago: Eh, I just have some kind of personal issue with what I perceive as sappy afterglow songs. Not big on post-60s Hollies either. shrug Steve Wynn just about sold it for me though
	11:56pm mariano: Thank you efd and Crew, take care everyone.
	11:56pm efd: @Kat no judgement, personal taste is personal!
	11:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang, say it ain't so. If I had my new laptop, there's no way linear time would keep pulling this crap! Thanks, efd, Matt, team. Great show, efd! Be well, all.
	11:57pm KWilde: Thanks EFD! Have to bail before the sirens start wailing
	11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, efd. Bye, Faye and others!
	11:57pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, efd!
	11:58pm Joe B: great show efd, thanks!
	11:58pm ledzeppelinsucks: yeah
	11:58pm spodiodi: thanks, EFD! nice one thanks, crew! cheerio peeparazzi
	11:59pm Gaylord Fields: A thing some NJ kids once asked me: "Dis train go to Tren'n?"
	11:59pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, efd, and goodnight all!
	12:00am Kat in Chicago: THE BIG APPLES
	12:01am P-90: Thanks efd!
	11:51am Steven Sclafani: Your show introduces me to so much great music. How do you do it? You have golden ears my friend.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from September 23, 2020

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!

September 23, 2020: live from Studio E(FD), at some point I switched from commas to colons and I'm switching back

	9:17pm Steve Mack: Hey! I know that guy...
	9:17pm wfmu listener phillip: is it warm or is it just me my weather app says 76°F wow!
	9:18pm efd: LOL! Hi Steve!
	9:18pm Sam Pocker: oh man, i missed cheap trick?

	9:19pm Joe B: Greetings Faye and everyone
	9:21pm Parq: Peter C. Johnson! There's a 70s name I haven't thought of in decades.
	9:21pm efd: hi Joe!
	9:23pm Handy Haversack: slugluv, Bagpipe is happily resting up after a few days of eating deer poop in the north woods! A successful trip for all concerned. Joe B! My laptop died, but as soon as I have a way to get pix off the camera, I have some good ones to send you of the 3CM Beer Koozie in action!
	9:24pm efd: Parq I just found out about him when I picked up that LP over the weekend. Surprising too, since he was a big deal in the Boston scene.
	9:24pm Hoboken Jack: Summoned from an ill-timed nap by STAG! Hello EFD, skeleton, Joe, Sam, Gaylord, uncle Michael, SteveL, Handy we missed ye on the boards, everyone!
	9:25pm Joe B: Handy sounds great!
	9:25pm Handy Haversack: Wow, thanks, Jack! Glad to be connected again! How goes?
	9:26pm Joe B: hey Jack!
	9:27pm Steve Mack: This track is KILLER.
	9:27pm efd: whoops, forgot to add the song to the playlist! sorry about that!
	9:28pm Steve Mack: Hey - how come I can't register and get a groovy photo like all you cool cats? I try every week. :(
	9:29pm Gaylord Fields: Good evening, Jack!
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Where's my electric fan?!
	9:29pm efd: oh weird, Steve! What happens you try to register?
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: I completely forgot about this one.
	9:30pm RobinSays: Ah, "Eugene." Quick--name some other funny disco songs...
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: I love Eugene.
	9:32pm brycepunk1: Evan, Sir Funk... I have to say again I love my Wednesday nights for your show. I only get the first 90 minutes cause of work Thursday, but man.. every single week you are ON! playing crazy joe now just kicking me with memories of being 8 years old.. thank you!
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: @RobinSays: Lady Bug by Bumblebee Unlimited!
	9:32pm slugluv1313: Disco Duck . . . and yes, i was alive when one could not escape that song!
	9:33pm Matt Fiveash: I remember hearing Eugene on Dr. Demento!
	9:33pm Handy Haversack: Steve Mack, you're on a computer, not a phone, right? I think it doesn't work the same with the phone app. Also, I know some folx have had trouble signing in if running through a VPN, though not sure if that applies.
	9:34pm RobinSays: Hey Kat, I'll have to check out Lady Bug. Slugluv1313, yes, I was around when Disco Duck was a hit myself:)
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: Garbage Skeleton is definitely going in the D&D game, Matt.
	9:35pm Matt Warwick: Signal is SMOOOOOOOTH as eggs
	9:35pm ultradamno: Yeah, you can't sign in on the app.
	9:35pm Steve Mack: Oh right... my VPN... let me try to drop off that and see if I have any better luck.
	9:37pm Matt Warwick: @handy the first time I was on WFMU was to play D&D on the air.
	9:37pm Joe B: and the rest is history!
	9:38pm Joe B: might be the copy I traded in to Princeton in 1989
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: @Matt, Kate is always telling me to bug Ken about running a D&D show. But I'm a lazy, lazy DM (well, lazy, lazy person). That said, we play every Sunday over Zoom -- let me know if you ever want to sit in on a game! You'll know how to defeat the Garbage Skeletons -- distract them with cheese!
	9:41pm Faye: hey Gaylord! miss ya
	9:43pm Faye: also hi matt joe b & FIveash- loved your show earlier this evening was BLASTING IT
	9:44pm Steve from Stag!: Can't tell if it was the VPN or not checking the email box, but I'm in!
	9:44pm Joe B: welcome Steve!
	9:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi Evan. Thanks for playing us (The Prof.Fuzz 63) on your show recently. Appreciate it!

	9:56pm Joe B: hey Kenzo!
	9:57pm Joe B: thanks Gaylord, will have to go back, missed it!
	9:57pm efd: I believe what Gaylord believes. Early August maybe? Hi Kenzo, you've come to the right place!
	9:58pm Matt Warwick: Wow this chat is full of everyone I miss
	9:58pm Parq: Wow, a star-studded comments column tonight.
	9:59pm efd: apologies to everyone commenting who I didn't personally say hello to, it got busy over here!
	9:59pm efd: but I'm very happy to see you all!
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Crazy Joe will comment any minute now...
	10:00pm Gaylord Fields: @efd: You can always say hello to us collectively. I can't see anyone ever objecting to that.
	10:01pm efd: great idea, Gaylord! Hi everyone! Thanks for tuning in tonight, each and every one of you equally (except Faye who is head and shoulders above the rest).
	10:02pm Joe B: as bugs bunny would say, thaaaat's the old pepper!
	10:02pm Aitch: Love this old Whirly World. Also see the Michael Hutchence collab and early Models, Andrew Duffield's band

	10:19pm Cee Dub: loving the mix tonight whilst chilling in the cool evening watching Saturn and Jupiter roll down the elliptic
	10:20pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I forgot to say, I'm enjoying hearing the catchy music with Faye and everyone else.
	10:22pm efd: that's what I like to hear!
	10:23pm Joe B: is this an album title or the name of my autobiography?
	10:24pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, folks.
	10:24pm Steve from Stag!: Perfect - Steven Bradley goes on my wish list for Bandcamp Friday!!!!
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	10:34pm mariano: Handy, how's it going! Find a replacement laptop yet?
	10:38pm patrick321: Heard this rose city thing a few times on other wfmu shows. I have to pick this up.
	10:41pm sufferwords: this Rose City is every hit of weed I smoked as a 13 year old
	10:43pm Joe B: on my list as well
	10:44pm Rob W: Rose City Band is a fairly new project from Ripley Johnson of Moon Duo and Wooden Shjips fame.
	10:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, I ordered one and s thing to try save the data off the dead one. Advice from friends invaluable in this!
	10:51pm mariano: Good to know, Handy. I always keep everything double- and triple-backed up on- and offline in case my rig decides to kick the bucket.
	10:52pm Joe B: thanks Rob
	10:53pm efd: the high-wattage commenters keep on coming here on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show! Hi Rob!
	10:53pm Handy Haversack: My plan is to use this new laptop to go back in time and do that very thing, Mariano.
	10:53pm efd: solid plan, Handy.
	10:56pm JM: Great show as always tonight. Thanks, EFD. Hoping everyone is having fun wherever you are.
	10:58pm efd: thanks for listening, JM!
	10:58pm Handy Haversack: That's why one upgrades the hardware, efd. That's science, isn't it?
	10:58pm mariano: If only you'd come to me first, Handy, then the men who torched your fruit stand would be suffering this very day... er, I mean, I would've told you about the importance of backing up your data. Sorry, two conversations at once.
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: There's always money in the banana stand, Mariano.
	11:01pm Roberto: I just ate a banana!
	11:02pm mariano: And you're telling me all that's just a coincidence?!
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: New laptop already working! Well done, future HH!
	11:03pm Joe B: ha handy!
	11:03pm Rtintera: Show is on fire

	11:08pm Stevel: We can take it!
	11:08pm Stevel: Schnooks. Amirite?
	11:08pm Handy Haversack: I hear only air horns now.
	11:08pm spodiodi: someone needs to make an air horn sad trombone for fb
	11:09pm Matt Warwick: I honestly was hoping for MORE air horn
	11:09pm Handy Haversack: Matt -- That. Arranged. Can be!
	11:13pm Chop Scott: I truly miss seeing you around the station Matt, and so many others. Cheers!

	11:15pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): <3 this steve wynn track
	11:15pm Stevel: Steve Wynn is one versatile SOB! Enjoying this cover very much.
	11:18pm Matt Warwick: SCOOOOOTTT! Miss ya too buddy! You've missed so much. I eat apples now!
	11:23pm Joe B: apples? stopped making cookies?
	11:24pm spodiodi: i'm eating a cookie as we speak, but have way more apples
	11:25pm Handy Haversack: I live in the Big Apples!
	11:25pm spodiodi: don't mind the maggots!
	11:25pm spodiodi: look at me
	11:27pm Stevel: Teased by the touch of civilization.
	11:27pm Matt Warwick: @Joe Oh no. Still making/eating PLENTY of cookies. Now I just sometimes eat apples.
	11:27pm thesecoronalives: joel mccrea! 'foreign correspondence' feels very poignant atm..
	11:27pm spodiodi: btw, may The Weasels leave your new machine in peace, Handy!
	11:27pm Gaylord Fields: I went to load the dishwasher and transfer wet laundry from the washer to the dryer, and I missed the airhorn! Blur were right: Modern life IS rubbish!
	11:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think Matt would enjoy hearing some Peter Holsapple, if you have any around.
	11:28pm spodiodi: it was pretty sweet, Gaylord... i lost count!
	11:28pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, spod! They should stick to ripping my flesh like they're supposed to!
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: @spodiodi: Thank heaven for the archives! Modern conveniences of life, you are forgiven — for now.
	11:29pm efd: I hope you learned your lesson, Gaylord!
	11:30pm Gaylord Fields: I did, efd: airhorn > tidiness
	11:31pm spodiodi: spoken like a man from utopia, Handy archives ftw, Gaylord!
	11:31pm Stevel: Gaylord: Somehow, that makes sense.
	11:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Stevel: I'll put you down for a bumper sticker.
	11:34pm Stevel: You know I'd use it.
	11:34pm Joe B: maybe some echo on the airhorn next week
	11:35pm Handy Haversack: Joe B, can the system even handle that?!
	11:35pm Joe B: i think studio efd is prepared!
	11:38pm Stevel: But, the 11 CD set might be what I really want, not having collected anything but the live Dream Syndicate album.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: I really, really hate "The Air That I Breathe" and always have, but I couldn't hate Steve Wynn's version.
	11:40pm Stevel: A friend of mine got to record with Jim Diamond. She remains a big fan.
	11:41pm efd: @Kat interesting! I've loved that song since I first heard it, and I also love Steve Wynn's version.
	11:51pm Kat in Chicago: Eh, I just have some kind of personal issue with what I perceive as sappy afterglow songs. Not big on post-60s Hollies either. shrug Steve Wynn just about sold it for me though
	11:56pm mariano: Thank you efd and Crew, take care everyone.
	11:56pm efd: @Kat no judgement, personal taste is personal!
	11:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang, say it ain't so. If I had my new laptop, there's no way linear time would keep pulling this crap! Thanks, efd, Matt, team. Great show, efd! Be well, all.
	11:57pm KWilde: Thanks EFD! Have to bail before the sirens start wailing
	11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, efd. Bye, Faye and others!

	12:00am Kat in Chicago: THE BIG APPLES
	12:01am P-90: Thanks efd!
