Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

Hi, Evan!
For those who haven't heard yet, Glenn Danzig is replacing Bret and his Wig as the... prize? I guess! Anyway, he's doing the next season of Rock of Love. Rejoice, fiends!

As long as we're talking about that Bee Gees tribute, and I fully realize I'm the only one who is, Phil Seymour's version of The First Mistake I Ever Made is amazing. Back to live action.

TT, I'm trying to decide between that song or "Just Like A Dream," but I think it's safe to say there will be a Mood 6 trrack on there for sure.
Cheri, I don't really watch Family Guy.

can't wait for this year's premium. The last one is still a favourite to funk to when doing housework

From:

Just Like A Dream was also great! Opening track on that super cool nu-psych comp A Splash Of Colour in what, 81 or something? Barracudas and The Times on that too. Worth digging out. I'm done now. Srsly.

John, yep, that is a great comp. Marc, I hope this year's premium lives up to your expectations!

OMG, that reminds me: I was supposed to finish my Corn Weenie, tonight, and have I even started? Not so much!
Crumbs.
I blame my spine[ is the bassline] (you can't not say it, once you get that far. if you're me.), and the bit that got rearranged when I wasn't looking, what with keeping my eyes on the road and the big red light overhead and all.
impending Percocet + the EFD showtime + Corn Weenie deadline => this is gonna be magnificent! Yaaay!

So EFD did you go to Chef Vola in AC? If not you missed the best meal in the state of New Jersey.
Wed. 2/18/09 12:37am
From:
Cal Zone!
Hey EFD, play something positive for Chimps. Lotta bad press lately. They can use some spin control.

From:
efd
Chef Vola? No, I missed that altogether. And here I thought I was doing OK by hitting Tony's Baltimore Grill for dinner.
Glad that roster of bands did some good, Jessica!
Cal, I'll see if I can scare something up to send a positive monkey message. Might have to wait for DAve the Spazz, though...

You were at the Tropicana?! You were right near Chef Vola! A missed opportunity.

oh man, next time!
Wed. 2/18/09 12:54am
From:
Michael From the Left Coast
I'll have to give you the unlisted number to Chef Vola--you have to make a reservation (and it's better to call because you probably wouldn't find the place without proper directions from them)

This sitar is pretty good, but I feel like it needs some rapping over it.
Wed. 2/18/09 12:57am
From:
Michael from the Left Coast
Wow-is the rest of this Chris Joss record as good as this?
Wed. 2/18/09 12:59am
From:
efd
MIchael, yeah, it's pretty good - but, not all the songs feature sitar as prominently. There are some organ and flute-based songs as well.
Joe, I'd have a feeling you might be thinking that -- because I was, too!
Wed. 2/18/09 1:06am

Tony's Baltimore Grill rules! One of the best places ever!

Wow-Bill Nelson! Haven't heard this in ten years
Wed. 2/18/09 1:24am
From:
Jessica
omg Bill Nelson, yay!
I have this on vinyl. It gets played, sometimes.
That, plus Nice Face and Fallen Leaves. And the Batcave comp.
Otherwise it all kind of sits there and looks pretty, beside the slab o wood & belt drive contraption.
This isn't fair, tho, 'cause I can't dance around like it's 1983 with my back all discombobulated.
Play this again in a few weeks?

Jessica, you're going to want me to play the next song again in a few weeks too, I'm afraid.
Wed. 2/18/09 1:29am
From:
Jessica
That's not going to be a problem, is it?
It took me a while: this could have been Fly Robin Fly, that song in the Mos Eiseley cantina, or... it's gone now.
My first thought was "How's he going to mix Bill Nelson and Billy Squier?"
Wed. 2/18/09 1:32am
From:
efd
ha! Now I feel like I'm being challenged! :)
This song definitely has that Silver Convention feel to it.

Spoony
Great show, Evan.
Wed. 2/18/09 1:34am
From:

The Mos Eisley Cantina song is called "Mad About Me".
The band's name was "Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes."
stop me, if I'm boring you.
Wed. 2/18/09 1:42am
From:

And here I was worried about whether I'd be able to stay awake for the rest of my show.
Glad you're enjoying the show, Spoony!

The swami sounds like a cartoon cat who's name I can't recall. I want to say Top Cat. But I don't think it's him.

ooooh, so that's who sings "how do you do?". i recall it from when i first started listening to a.m. - tho my earliest memory off radio is "spirit in the sky" (which 104.3 played a lil before the GRAHAM NASH interv on sunday). plus, me wuv wuv wuv "hanging around" - when i started listening to WNYU, i'd write down a list of songs that thrilled me. it was on it (darn, where is that list?).

Ooooh, can we have some more hints about what's going to be on the marathon premium?
