Every show starts with a cut from the ā70s: 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: Iām the biggest Nick Gilder fan on WFMU.

Gap Dream started out as a bedroom psych project by Cleveland's Gabe Fulvimar, and after sending some of his homemade recordings to Burger Records they released a cassette-only album, as they are wont to do, at the beginning of this year. Fans of airy psych-pop that sounds something like Brian Jonestown Massacre meets The Byrds, with elements of Spacemen 3 and Sweden's Dungen thrown in, will absolutely not want to miss this live set! Gap Dream's album is now available on LP (Burger), and they've got a new single out on the Suicide Squeeze label. Don't miss this live set, and check them out on Twitter and Facebook!






This special show is part of the WFMU's 31 Days Of October silent fundraiser -- we're giving you a full month of special shows instead of interrupting our on-air programming for a second time this year, but we really need your support to help keep us on the air.

Hiya Funk Fans. Hi EFD :) looking forward to a great show | |

Hi Danne, hi BadGuyZero, hi everyone else! |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:08pm
john:
Hey Evan and folks....the best thing of all about tonight's show is that it drowns out the execrable McCarver (and even execrabler) Buck. Odd part is that we're three innings in and I'm still not sure who I'm rooting for. Go team! | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:10pm
SteveL:
Hey there. Was there a recent cover of They Walk Among You, (or was this the song I've heard.?) | |
|
|
♥
Wed. 10/24/12 9:13pm
efd:
hey john! Honestly I'm not sure who I'm rooting for either! @SteveL, New Math later changed their name to Jet Black Berries and I think they re-recorded the song -- and in fact I think they recorded it again for a new CD they put out last year. So, kind of! |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:16pm
Danne D:
EFD with the wonderful channel-switch b/w songs :) One song ends in the right ear and the next one starts in the left :) | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:16pm
PB:
Verlander getting rocked. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:17pm
john:
Nice call, Danne! Those of you who are quadraphonic are, however, screwed. Not to mention stuck in 1975. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:17pm
SteveL:
Ahhhh, that makes a bunch of sense. Cool to have two versions out. So, you're warming us up for Gap Dream eh? This is what awesome radio is about! | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:18pm
G:
Contrary to the cliche, good hitting beats good pitching tonight. 4 runs in 2-2/3 innings on Verlander, bullpen up. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:19pm
SteveL:
Danne D: I'm going to listen with the headphones more in the future. I'm on a small computer speaker, that I can take about anywhere, but I'm missing out on the channel-switch nuance. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:20pm
john:
If you've scored four runs in less than three innings, the pitching isn't good. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:21pm
G:
Verlander has a pretty extensive track record of good pitching this year. Don't take my word, check the stats :) | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:21pm
PB:
Big question is whether Zito can hold the lead. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:22pm
PB:
Brian Jonestown Massacre meets The Byrds, with elements of Spacemen 3. Sounds pretty interesting efd, will have to check these guys out. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:23pm
john:
Well, let's see if the Giants will accept his track record in lieu of how he's throwing tonight. I'm betting the under...:) | |
|

PB, they are G R E A T !! And good evening to you and to G as well, |

Wed. 10/24/12 9:25pm
G:
Apparently they weren't intimidated by the track record, that's a fact. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:26pm
Danne D:
This article didn't help much. http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/10/24/how-to-decide-who-to-root-for-in-the-world-series/ I think I'm going against the fan base that had a huge blind sport for Bonds rather than the team that beat the Padres in '84 (my rooting history is unfortunately complicated in baseball) | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:28pm
SteveL:
Enjoying the dual musical/baseball threads. I believe that's one of the reasons this radio is Worth Paying For. 55% for now. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:29pm
Danne D:
Now it's Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime for the FUNK! | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:30pm
SteveL:
"Crippled Monkeys" on Ed Sullivan? THAT was a night to remember. That Tommy James/Shondells was nice. Time for the Funk indeed, sir. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:30pm
Danne D:
Holy Crap is EFD posting pictures of a performance from the Future?!? | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:30pm
john:
Apparently complicated indeed, Danne! I sort of give Giants fans a pass on the Bonds blind spot; I think pretty much every team's fans would do the same thing for their hero, especially when he was hardly the only juiceman in the bigs. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:32pm
SteveL:
So, if the band photos are from the future, does that mean we know how the ballgame came out? | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:34pm
PB:
What is a shondell? | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:35pm
Danne D:
He also wasn't the only doucheman in the bigs, but he was pretty high on the list, John. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:36pm
Danne D:
@SteveL - EFD probably knows but he ain't tellin | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:36pm
G:
Band to roadie: "As usual, have five nice shondells lined up for us by the stage door waiting, twenty minutes after the second encore ends." | |

PB:
Verlmader just gave up an RBI single to Zito. Oh my. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:39pm
john:
Point well taken, Danne. That being said, weird story. I was in Palo Alto in 2001 recovering from surgery, and one of my nurses, it turned out, was a friend of Barry Bonds' mother, who apparently had a bunch of buddies, or perhaps biddies, over to play cards a couple times a week. Barry would often stop by and was, apparently, a very friendly and most respectful and dutiful son. Interesting thing, perspective. | |

Alex & Roger:
Juice? Huh? | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:41pm
PB:
Should say Verlander. Typing in the dark. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:41pm
G:
Once the dam breaks, it damn well breaks. Psychology, I guess. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:43pm
G:
Stat: Verlander has thrown 35 "2 strike count" pitches already. Those Giant batters are not going down easy. Duh. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:45pm
G:
The Yankee $275-million lineup (aka the Antiques Road Show) would have struck out nine times already | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:47pm
PB:
Sound a little like Apache Dropout to me. Good stuff. Always up for great garage rock. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:47pm
john:
G, they're probably waving in front of the TV. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:49pm
G:
Verlander out, his shortest start since June 2010. @john: Their kids are probably striking them out in the back yard these days. | |
|
|

Wed. 10/24/12 9:51pm
efd:
I have to say, I'm surprised about Verlander. I'd thought the extra days off would have been good for him. The Giants make contact, though, more so than the Yankees or A's. |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:52pm
Danne D:
At least Barry's not a douche to his mom and her friends - we need intel on the other 49 players now ;) | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:54pm
john:
Well, we're still waiting for Verlander's first actually good World Series start. Got rocked in his first, gave up a ton of baserunners in his second and squirmed out with a couple unearned runs. Fortuantely, as a sort of statistican, I can say a sample of three is still a bit on the short side. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 9:55pm

@G: grandkids, surely? | |

If you can, please pledge to support my show and WFMU's Silent Fundraiser by using the pledge box at the top of the page!

Oh double f - I also missed the New Math cut that Evan knows I love & I like to think he played with me at least partially in mind (Holly hubris syndrome, it's not pretty) | |

"Tired of Toein' the Line"-- something sounds very familiar about this song, may have been a long forgotten memory from somewhere, but thanks for reviving it with this catchy song! | |

Dear lord I don't think I've heard this (rocky burnette) *since* 1980! Do I have this 7"? | |

And in 1980 you couldn't get away from that Rocky Burnette song if you wanted to! | |

Holly in NC:
Trying to think of something clever to say about new Shoes, but too tired & hungry. I like new Shoes. C'mon all you witty people, help out! I'm going to swiftly run & make dinner (eg grab hunks of chicken from yesterday's roast) because, in the local parlance, I'm like to fall out ;-) | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 11:04pm
Ho Pful:
Shoes ... from Zion, IL, I think. Or maybe Rockford, like Cheap Trick. Off Broadway ... Pezband ... what a wonderful power pop heritage Illinois has given us. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 11:04pm
SteveL:
Is there any cooler-than-usual vinyl available re. the Shoes new disc? I have a friend who would be stoked about one for a gift. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 11:06pm
john:
No vinyl that I know of on the Shoes album, but I think Numero is doing a bunch of Shoes elpee reissues starting any time now. | |

@Matt ... . magic 8-ball indicates Chilliwack moment in next 24-hrs for you. @world Shoes did a nice version of Words of Love by B. Holly. IMHO | |

That's some ham-handed hinting, efd ;-) Seriously, If I get paid by 10/31 , you & all my other fave djs get paid - right now 2 clients not able to pay me, in serious austerity mode. SEE SWINGING NECKBREAKERS LIVE IF AT ALL POSSIBLE YOU LUCKY NJ PEOPLE!!!!! | |

Gee, dunno :) | |

Wed. 10/24/12 11:14pm

G, It may be spelled "Ticket Salad Sandwich", but EFD is definitely pronouncing the Canadian way (Le Pweson Rooj). | |

Sharpees! Thanks to Peter Guralnick's exhaustive & pre-internet index in the superb Sweet Soul Music, I spent years tracking down that 7". Now it's just a click away (think Mick now: oooh, children, it's just a click away, click away) Julie if you're here think Andrew Eldritch! ;-) | |

Glen Burtnick's daughter was for several years in a super-fun art-punk-facepaint band from New Brunswick called We Are The Seahorses. | |

Burtnik is in Liverpool now, and is great. That cancels out the Styx! | |

Cynthia:
holly in nyc, you do realize Maxwell's is right across the river in Hoboken, I'm sure? Lots of lucky NYC people make it there regularly! Come on out! And don't miss Holmes ( i'm shameless) or Wyldlife (they're great). | |

I would pay top $ to see a 2 hour, full length Broadway version of that Jobriath rock opera! | |

Holly in NC:
Hi Cynthia - while born & raised in southern Connecticut (not the nasty commuter trail I hasten to add) I now hang my hat in the fine state of North Carolina, which is a bit of a drive :-) | |

how 'bout a lozenge instead? | |

Wed. 10/24/12 11:44pm
Matt from Springfield:
Yeah, this is the Jobriath EFD did a show on: "Jobriath (Bruce Wayne Campbell December 14, 1946, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania ā August 3, 1983), was an American country rock and glam rock musician and actor.[1] He was the first openly gay rock musician to be signed to a major record label, and one of the first internationally famous musicians to die of AIDS." | |

Holly in NC:
Hi John! I guess my hometown is now part of that nasty ole trail, but it surely wasn't back in the day. My trailer-sized house (with an amazing yard) -and in fact my entire block - was razed some years back to build some NASTY "executive condos". | |

Michael from the Left Coast:
just joined post baseball EFD--there's a misspelling in the playlist--Glen spells his name Burtnik | |

Wed. 10/24/12 11:50pm

Michael, it's funny you mention that - it's spelled "Burtnick" on my single, but I noticed in his Wikipedia entry that he's used both spellings during his career. |

Wed. 10/24/12 11:51pm

ZZ Top repping with perhaps the best cover ever!!! | |

Nasty executive condos repre--oh, wait. Holly, unfortunately, I know exactly what you're talking about! | |

Wed. 10/24/12 11:51pm
Droll:
Ha! As Hot Lunch Was playing I was thinking about how the only thing that could make it sound better would be the ZZ Top "Bass On Top" mix, and BAM! There's a perfect example! | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 11:53pm
Red Fish:
this ZZ Top is the official Silent Fundraiser track. | |
|
Wed. 10/24/12 11:53pm
Michael from the Left Coast:
EFD--he currently uses Burtnik and I'm trying to remember what he used when Heroes and Zeros was released here but I can't remember (but I think it was without the C) | |
