Every show starts with a cut from the ‘70s: Rediscovering the forgotten rockers, revisiting the once-hated disco beats, replaying the power-pop favorites. Next: copious amounts of new releases and occasional live bands. Also: I’m the biggest Nick Gilder fan on WFMU.

don't mean to kill the vibe......but what a bummer about the Mets....can't even think of a tune to sum up this situation!!. | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:36pm
john:
I don't know of a song called "we totally suck ass" so you're probably right. | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:37pm
billy:
i think you meant to say Brad Whitford .....Tyler was always in Aerosmith | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:39pm

no problem | |

wikipedia:
Continuing to play as a studio musician, Crespo has also performed at some of Las Vegas' biggest casinos, whilst also engineering a rock amplifier simulator ("Rock Amp Legends by Jimmy Crespo") for Nomad Factory. Crespo plays with the band Phoenix on the Las Vegas entertainment circuit. | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:41pm
john:
I like that Crespo is described as a stolid capstan. Wonder if he meant to call himself an unemotional revolving cylinder. | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:43pm
RV:
I am surprised the wikipedia does not contain any information on his pull-up skills. | |
|

Laurie:
This "Robot Kid" song -- do I hear a "Warm Leatherette" sample? | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:46pm
randy in NC:
Yay Sparks! | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:46pm
efd:
i'm not sure if it's an actual sample, but there's definitely some kind of reference in there. John, totally agree re "stolid capstan!" | |
|

Marcelo from Arghhentina:
yes, its time now, we need a Sparks boxset, than x for the music Evan | |
|
Tue. 9/30/08 11:54pm
efd:
Hi Marcelo, thanks for checking in! Cool to know you're listening in Argentina! I agree, a Sparks box set is definitely in order. That, and a Tommy Roe box set. | |

Laurie:
KITTY!!!!!!!!!!! Awwww. Thank you for adopting a grown up cat =^._.^= | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:00am
C:
You gotta let that cat out of the air vent | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:01am
john:
l'hygiene sonore makes a goodish pun in english-- aural hygiene. I went to the dentist today, the music wasn't that good. My cat is sleeping under the covers. I should remember that when I go to bed. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:12am
Amanda:
Such a nice cat! The annoyed expression is because you got the litterbox in the photo, I'm sure. TF are awesome. I am not sure yet what I'm doing Friday, but I might not be able to resist that show. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:12am
D in DC:
FYI: A big supercollider was supposed to be built in Waxahachie, Texas but the funding was cut in the early 90s. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:15am
efd:
Aha, D, thanks for that info -- that must be the one they're talking about in that song - I know I heard Texas mentioned somewhere in there. Laurie, the cat is about 8 months old, so not quite full-grown yet. Amanda, I think the annoyed expression was also because me and one of the workers at the shelter were making him look up while he was trying to eat! | |
|

Naomi:
TOMORROW IS HAZEL RIGBY'S BIRTHDAY! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:21am
efd:
wow! my timing is impeccable! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:21am
efd:
i'm afraid to ask how old she's going to be... i feel old enough as it is since I just had a birthday myself! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:24am
Naomi:
She'll be 20. Get your teeth out of the polident and chew on that. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:32am
billy:
phillies vs brewers....chicago vs la | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:33am
efd:
thanks billy! you are the official efd fact checker for this evening! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:33am
billy:
cubs vs dodgers that is | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:35am
billy:
yes somehow i retain information better during the hours of 11-2, tuesday nights | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:36am
efd:
i wish that were true for me! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:39am
efd:
anyone want to make some world series predictions? | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:42am
randy in NC:
Well the Sox have to get through the Angels. And they haven't done well against them this year. But it seems like they always have to go through them, doesn't it? | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:45am
efd:
that's true, Randy. And if Beckett's not at full strength then it's going to be even tougher for Boston to win that series. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:45am
Laurie:
I thought I heard Roxy's voice! She's such a sweetheart. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:57am
randy in NC:
I'd really like to see the Dodgers do it. Not because of the Manny thing, but because it would be great to rub Torre into the NY sportswriters faces. They have this attitude that of course a NY team is going to win the World Series (Super Bowl, etc.). And when they don't it's like the world has ended. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:58am
billy:
i would LOVE to see Dodgers vs Red Sox......Torre and Manny vs Red Sox?!! Bizarre and great | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 12:59am
MONTREAL:
brew crew | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:00am
craig:
I can see the dodgers coming out of the National League but I can't choose between Tampa Bay or the Angels. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:08am
efd:
if the Red Sox get knocked out I'll be rooting for Tampa Bay... I'd love to see LA in the series as well, but I feel like the Cubs have a pretty good shot at the NL title. disclaimer: I don't really follow the NL that closely! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:13am
john:
Dont' discount the Rays in the first Series; they're deadly at home. I think they take out the White Sox. Phils beat a superior Brew Crew, Cubs over Dodgers despite how much fun it'd be to see Yankee fans watch Joe Torre in the Series....more to follow... | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:14am
billy:
yeah cubs are the favorite.......but they are cursed | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:15am
efd:
I don't believe in curses! :) And yeah, John, my money's on Tampa Bay to beat the ChiSox. Well, it would be if I were actually placing money somewhere. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:18am
billy:
really.....i just hope to see some good, close games....no blowouts and no sweeps!!! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:18am
john:
Yeah, but a Cubs win is kind of a dogs and cats living together scneraio... | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:19am
billy:
don't forget goats!! | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:22am
efd:
it would be somewhat fitting if the Cubs finally make it into the Series and lose to a team that finished in last place last year. | |
|
Wed. 10/1/08 1:36am
?:
oh in spanish, el Lobo - The Wolf, what a sounds, direct from the basements!!! thanx | |
|

jack m.:
hey efd, thanks for the shoutout..."do animals..." is IMHO one of the great post post-punk LPs, ripe for reissue. and great show, as always. | |
