The Evan "Funk" Davies Show:
Playlist
from September 21, 2011
View efd's profile
|
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.

PB:
Following up on last week's exhaustive discussion about Marc Bolan, guess who is on the cover of this month's Uncut magazine. Are we in the midst of a Marc Bolan revivial? | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:10pm
Marc:
I never really went away, babe. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:12pm
Frisco Kid:
When I think of the millions of times I passed over this Charlie record. And it's actually kinda tolerable! Whooda thunkit. | |

SAUSALITO!!!! Yer killin' me - thanks. | |

Marc is timeless :) | |

it was also the anniversary of Marc's death last week. | |

Wed. 9/21/11 9:16pm
Aharon:
Anyone else think that Charlie song borrows from Queen's You're My Best Friend? Interesting place to find inspiration. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:19pm
Frisco Kid:
Yes, Sausalito is in Marin County, just north of San Francisco, across the Golden Gate Bridge.... | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:20pm
Marc:
I died two weeks short of 30. The 30th of this month would have been my "When I'm 64" birthday. Time flies! | |

Hi everyone! Thanks for listening and commenting, will try to be more chatty in a bit... | |

Aharon:
Boy, Soft Tags really are great. I'm happy this show has single-handedly shoved them down the east coast's throat. | |
|

calzone!:
I wonder if these guys ever hang out at 'The Regal Beagle'? | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:47pm
Frisco Kid:
Yep, the geography of "Sausalito Summer Night" has always bugged me silly. Since they blew a gasket on the Grapevine (I-5, middle of the state), they were driving north from LA apparently, so what were they doing north of Frisco in Sausalito? Makes no sense. | |

@calzone! - Yes indeed! Hi John, Julie, Aharon, Mark, PB, miketp and everyone else! | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 9:58pm
Frisco Kid:
Thanks, Evan! And John F., I was actually stuck in Lodi once. I also have a picture of my parents standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona.... | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:00pm
John F.:
Are you Don's son? :-P | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:05pm
Aharon:
Aaah! It took me two weeks to get this out of my head the last time I heard it. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:06pm
efd:
@Aharon perhaps it will addle your brain enough for you to suddenly fall out of first place in the efd Happy How Do You Do To You fantasy baseball league. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:08pm
efd:
Not that I was thinking that when I put it on, of course. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:09pm
Aharon:
Don't stop thinkin' about tomorrow, Evan. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:09pm
John F.:
Put me in, coach! | |

Wed. 9/21/11 10:21pm
G:
I'm supposed to be with family in Baltimore this weekend, including for an Orioles game against the Red Sox Monday. Given the season the Os have had, the biggest things on Os fans' minds at this point is hopefully being the ones who can put the big bad Red Sox out of their "September choke" misery, and they don't try to hide it... | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:29pm
efd:
G, I don't doubt it! Have fun if you go to the game, I went down earlier this year - always enjoy visiting Camden Yards. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:32pm
G:
We'll see how it goes. I'm not really a rooter. The Yankees never need much help, but I grew up in Detroit and first rooted for the Tigers (1968), and on top of that I have brothers in Tampa and Baltimore. That leaves me with pretty divided AL East loyalties... | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:33pm
PB:
This is from an AMG review of Europe '72, Volume 2 (and I thought Keith Jarrett's 10 record Sun Bear Concerts was excessive!). The set features good sound and the kind of loose performances that Grateful Dead fans treasure in live recordings, though true completists will want the limited-edition, unbelievably large, 73-CD collection Europe '72: The Complete Recordings, issued by Rhino the same month as this relatively modest double CD. | |

Dandy show, per usual. Head down, catching up on work at home. Sucks much less with efd. | |

Holly in NC:
One of my customers is best friends with a close friend of Derek Jeter. My customer celebrates a significant birthday this weekend. Derek has arranged for a flight to the city, a suite at the Essex, limo service to the stadium, & tix for all 3 games for my customer & his wife & his 2 kids. AND I FORGOT TO ASK FOR DEREK'S AUTOGRAPH. That is all. Oh yeah - Hi Evan & friends! ;-) | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:38pm
Holly in NC:
YES! | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 10:39pm
efd:
Holly, weirdly enough I'd cued this up before you commented! That's some story. Hi Steve, thanks for checking in - glad I can make the work catch-up a little easier. | |

Thanks for the Notekillers - ooh -who is this? Birds of Avalon? New to me. I like! Anyone know anything about them? | |

No, I'm a blushing Victorian maiden. Gracious me. | |

Wed. 9/21/11 11:07pm
Honking Palmetto Bug:
We'll play along. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:07pm
Holly in NC:
OK, really I'm a bawdy wench with a fondness for big "bugs". | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:10pm
Honking Palmetto Bug:
Women have such a tough time making up their minds sometimes. :-) It was days before I figured out whether she felt sympathy for me or was gonna squish me. :-P | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:11pm
jmd:
oh yeah! I'm feeling a jam coming on like we haven't heard since Devestator! Thanks. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:19pm
Holly in NC:
So I'm conflicted! I have decided to limit my interspecies antipathy to things that bite me. Without my permission. However, I must apologize to Evan for not expressing appropriate empathy for his big huge honking something experience of several weeks ago. Honking, some of your relatives are just plain.. scary. Like 'Deliverance' scary. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:20pm
Honking Palmetto Bug:
We just have way the fuck too many legs. Two would suffice, four would be plenty. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:26pm
Holly in NC:
Worst nightmare: a millipede with earwig pinchers, silverfish speed, slug texture, wolf spider fur, and 'palmetto bug' wings. I just scared myself into my parents' bedroom ..wait - they're dead? | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:27pm
efd:
I still can't get over the fact that a moth flew into Matt Holliday's ear (he's a basball player) and they had to take it out with tweezers, I think. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:28pm
Honking Palmetto Bug:
Now you're giving poor efd the willies, as his anxious glance scans the leak-stained ceiling! | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:29pm
Holly in NC:
I love that the Cheater Slicks are still kickin'. EFD, why did their hometown dislike them so? | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:35pm
Roy Wood:
Didn't I do Glitter Wizzard about 1972? | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:37pm
Holly in NC:
I am honestly, really, truly spider phobic. And I always keep a glass of water by my bed. You can guess where this anecdote is going... vomit, tears, screams, palpitations, etc etc... The glass is now always clear, and covered. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:37pm

Arf! Arf! Quick, Timmy, Harry's dowm a well! | |

I really want that Liminanas 7in, & to date have been thwarted in all my procurement efforts. Probably by anyone who ever attempted to teach me the niceties of the English language. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:56pm
efd:
@Holly, have you tried troubleinmindrecs.com directly? CT in DC, did that execution happen after all? That's really terrible. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:57pm
Holly in NC:
@C Thomas - I thought he got an 11th hour stay ??!! Wildly inappropriate to say 'yay' re Yankees in this same comment.so please pretend that I didn't. | |
|
Wed. 9/21/11 11:58pm
G:
Supreme Court discussed it for four hours this evening, then voted not to re-review the case. Sentence was carried out within an hour after that. | |

Holly in NC:
Crap. | |
|
Thu. 9/22/11 12:01am
Holly in NC:
Well....his innocence is quite debatable - but that's the point. | |
