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.

Michael from the Left Coast:
I've always wondered what are some of those sounds on this album--like the almost beeping noise in the background. Like the hooting noise in "Fashion"
Tue. 11/10/09 11:18pm
Lang:
OMG You are NOT playing this! Except you ARE! I love you EFD!!!
Tue. 11/10/09 11:20pm

Chad From Oregon:
There are baseless rumors EVERY year that Bowie will play Coachella.
Tue. 11/10/09 11:24pm
efd:
Toni, believe it or not I already figured that out.
Hi everyone, glad you're enjoying the show so far!

Does Bowie still have his own ISP?
Tue. 11/10/09 11:25pm
Michael from the Left Coast:
True Chad but this year there are fewer big names to catch attention and I imagine they'll throw stupid money at him to do it
Tue. 11/10/09 11:29pm

Tue. 11/10/09 11:30pm

"Meg," why would I play that after I just played two other David Bowie songs?
Tue. 11/10/09 11:33pm
nec13:

EFD--That's Caleb Quaye (pronounced Kway).
He also toured with Hall and Oates
Tue. 11/10/09 11:47pm
john from otisville:
he played w/ Rod the Mod a lot, and anyone near that London scene
Tue. 11/10/09 11:47pm
john:
And actually most of Hookoot played with Elton in the early days, though Im not sure how often--I know they were nearly all on the great Tumbleweed Connection.
Tue. 11/10/09 11:48pm
Amanda:
Congrats Harry, indeed! Every new day should be unwrapped like a precious gift.
Tue. 11/10/09 11:49pm
nec13:
Good song. I've always liked the Young Rascals.
Tue. 11/10/09 11:50pm
john from otisville:
he wore glasses and had a slight astigmatism in his left eye
Tue. 11/10/09 11:51pm
Michael from the Left Coast:
Hey EFD as a fellow drummer I think you'd appreciate the multi part interview on YouTube with Dino Danelli (interview done by Liberty Devito--Billy Joel's former drummer).

One of my all-time favorite baseball teams: the '67 Red Sox. Yaz, Reggie Smith, Tony C, etc.

Evan, have you ever listened to "Dancing in Your Head"? It's fantastic.
Wed. 11/11/09 12:15am
Bummer:
Saw erstwhile EFD fave Jeremy Jay last week--not very good. A little too introverted on stage, a little too prima donnaish about his reverb, and not fully engaged in his own songs. Of course, the lame, sparse audience may have had something to do with it.
Wed. 11/11/09 12:16am
randy in NC:
Re '67 Sox, 2 things I remember about that. 1) many (most?) of the Series games were played during the day and 2) they played them over the PA system at JFK Jr HS when I was there...
Wed. 11/11/09 12:34am
efd:
randy, I'm with you on the daytime World Series games, although strangely I remember that more with the '69 Mets-Orioles series,
Too bad about the J. Jay show, Bummer - or Aharon, I presume.
nec13, not sure what "Dancing In Your Head" is...? I'm prepared to feel ignorant now.
Michael, I'm definitely more interested in Liberty DeVItto's interviewing, as opposed to his drumming. ;) I'll look for those clips.
Wed. 11/11/09 12:35am
osvi:
EFD, playing the ill conceived beats. Cant wait for the mini marathon, wanna give a little somethin' somethin' to the worlds greatest radio station! woot woot...
Wed. 11/11/09 12:37am
toni daytona:
efd---what do you think of my my friend,,aint she sweet??
Wed. 11/11/09 12:43am
?:
her perfume is weird
Wed. 11/11/09 12:47am
efd:
osvi, thanks in advance - your support is appreciated.
Toni, I assume we can expect to get donations from you and every single one of your friends. I'll be keeping an eye out.
Wed. 11/11/09 12:48am
Bummer:
Since I'm oversharing on the comment board (w/cover blown), I'll note that I've had the misfortune to stand behind James McNew at far too many shows.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:17am
Joe:
the Swingin' Neckbreakers are pretty good. But I always get this creepy nagging Black Crowesy kind of tingle in the back of my head when I hear them and it kind of ruins everything. And I don't even -really- hate the Black Crowes, even though I sorta do.
The Black Angels, on the other hand, I am exceptionally passionate about. Seeing them live was like a religious experience.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:18am
Danne D:
hey guys! hey efd!
I have to catch up on this great set on the archives :(
But...did you guys hear about the celebrity phone slave for next week? :)
Wed. 11/11/09 1:21am
Joe:
well, I'm not sure I'd call myself a "celebrity," per se...
Wed. 11/11/09 1:22am
efd:
Harry Harrison is going to be my phone slave??
Joe, have you seen the Neckbreakers live? That might disabuse you of this misplaced Black Crowes association.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:23am
Danne D:
LOL
actually it was someone nearer and dearer to my heart :)
Wed. 11/11/09 1:24am
Joe:
you know I can't refuse an EFD reccomendation. I'll put them on "The List". With a bullet.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:28am
Danne D:
*pouts Toni-Style* nobody cares that I'll be phone slaving next week 8(
that's okay call in and pledge everyone :) Show the love for the Funk Man!
Wed. 11/11/09 1:31am
kamper:
Just tuned in and it looks like I missed a killer show.
Thank god for the arkives!
Wed. 11/11/09 1:32am
Danne D:
LOL awwww thx for the shout out Evan :)
Puleeze pledge what you can folks. Consider it kinda like a 2nd Cinco De Funko :)
Wed. 11/11/09 1:33am
efd:
Danne D, we kid because we love.
Welcome, kamper!
Wed. 11/11/09 1:33am
efd:
Think of it as more of a Casho de Funko
Wed. 11/11/09 1:38am
Danne D:
yup yup
Just take like $10 off each Christmas gift and pass it along to FMU :) Just don't tell Santa I said to do that!
Wed. 11/11/09 1:39am
Joe:
I've just been openly encouraging people to deal drugs and pledge the proceeds.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:40am
kamper:
The Swim has a Teardrop Explodes slash Julian Cope vibe to it
Wed. 11/11/09 1:40am
Joe:
but your idea is much better. Like, way better.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:42am
Danne D:
Or conversely cut $10 out of each bag of drugs you were going to give people for Christmas - kinda works the same way :)
Wed. 11/11/09 1:44am
Michael from the Left Coast:
For a moment there I thought this was an alternate version of Wunderbar by Tenpole Tudor
Wed. 11/11/09 1:46am
Danne D:
I had a zim zamm in my backyard growing up. As a result I play tennis ambidextrously.
Ironically enough, though, I cannot swim.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:49am
Michael from the Left Coast:
EFD you know that Purdie is the drummer in the Broadway show Hair at the moment
Wed. 11/11/09 1:54am
efd:
I did not know that! Thanks for the info.
Wed. 11/11/09 1:58am
kamper:
A crest??
Wed. 11/11/09 1:59am
Danne D:
