efd's avatar View efd's profile Favoriting

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

When Harpo played in PA a year ago, the opening act was an AC/DC tribute band. Their name? Halfway to Hell. It is indeed a long way to the top.

Hi efd and funky folk. Listening from a tiny airbnb bedroom where I'm planning my next few days in NYC. If anyone's going to Kenny G's thing on Saturday, look for a middle-aged woman in blue glasses knitting a sock. It's probably me and you should say hi.

It has been a little odd today experiencing the WFMU schedule without an hour time shift.

Every time I come here there's one very rainy day. I expect it now!
  Swag For Life Member 9:55pm
Julie M:

Ah, Kat, it's only Wednesday. Seems like the forecasts aren't as accurate as they once were (not because of global climate change or anything). It could totally change in a couple of days, so I'm rootin' for ya.

Hey folks, a reminder that we're heading in to the last week of WFMU's October Fundraiser! I'd love to close the gap on my personal goal and help get the station closer to theirs, so if you like what you hear on my show and/or WFMU in general and you haven't pledged yet I hope you're able to do so now. Just hit that banner at the top left of the page, or click on this here link:

We've got new t-shirts, DJ premiums, and other swag to reward you for your support.

And many many thanks to everyone who's pledged so far! I'll be thanking pledges from last week and tonight later in the show.

Is this the original bed music, or the replacement?

i guess technically it's the replacement, but it's the one I've been using for a few years now.

I first saw and learned about Tony Molina at a festival in California. He had nice songs, but he's also a shredder in the best sense.
