	♥ 12:07pm Alvy Singer: Mission of Burma is Dadaism set to music.
	12:08pm clarke: knowing peter - i figure it is that HUGE deep snare he loved(s)
	♥ 12:08pm Figgsrock: I've heard "Back When My Hair was Short" twice in the past two weeks on 70s on 7, so it's refreshing to hear something else from Gun Hill Road.
	♥ 12:08pm Asheville Jon: sad to see the air horn icons have disappeared. gearing up for the marathon i guess. perhaps an overzealous blasting of the airhorn today will help ease the pain.
	♥ 12:10pm efd: @Asheville Jon they'll come back for whoever pledges to my show next month!
	♥ 12:10pm dave wuz here: had this turbines album on the TT last night. hickey/hovorka were amazing
	12:10pm clarke: i actually worked at Arf! Arf! Records for a short period of time. great fun!!

	♥ 12:14pm tim from washington: Silverhead is new to me and I'm all about it already! Motorbreath hard rock chooglin!
	12:14pm bob_ham: Speaking of the Kaisers, that tune reminded me of seeing the Masonics and the Wildebeests way back when.
	♥ 12:14pm Handy Haversack: I concur with tim's review!
	12:15pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: EFD is WAY better than EST. I saw a couple fictional EST sessions on The Americans tv show, it was pretty awkward and weird looking.
	12:16pm clarke: like moving in nextdoor to the sapperstein's in the dakota building...
	♥ 12:17pm Figgsrock: WOW. I had totally forgotten about this Glen Burtnick song.
	♥ 12:17pm Alvy Singer: @EFD..Excellent choice playing Silverhead.

	12:20pm bob_ham: ALVY SINGER OVER HERE!
	♥ 12:20pm karlward: Jason from Houston: The other twelve songs on the playlist were different mixes (and live versions) of "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley
	♥ 12:21pm karlward: "If this playlist doesn't make you drive with a brick in your hand then nothing will"
	♥ 12:21pm Jason from Houston: Rolling hard, man. Rolling hard.
	12:22pm Bianconeri: Karlward: brickwalled really meant something back then!
	♥ 12:22pm Jason from Houston: Don't forget: You can't give the Texas over-the-steering-wheel-finger-wave with a brick in your hand.
	♥ 12:23pm Stevel: Godfathers!!
	12:25pm AC Paint: Silverhead! Good god…when I was a kid in the early 70sI went to my cousins band practice & Ace Supreme was a song they covered.This led me to seek them out…’16 & Savaged’ I believe was the album…a spinal tappishly cheerful bundle of misogynistic impulses that would not fly today
	♥ 12:28pm mrdonutsu: 2020?!? That long ago, damn.
	♥ 12:29pm Rich in Washington: Johnny & The Distractions! Classic Portland OR scenesters!

	12:35pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Hello EFD. Happy Wednesday!!!
	12:35pm Dutch: WFMU - Schopenhauers favorite musicstation!!! :-)
	♥ 12:35pm Alvy Singer: @tim from washington...And Michael was married to super groupie Pamela Des Barres who was in the GTO's.
	12:36pm Morphe': efd (and all who missed it) efd - that was a great article ya sent in last week to Pseu's show Re: Mark Edwards = My DAD IS DEAD .. Fav quote: " I’ve always thought the people of Cleveland had a remarkable resilience in the face of national jokes, declining industry and job base, dilapidated housing stock, losing sports teams, you get the picture. It definitely contributed to the yeah-but-we’re-still-here mentality, but also a constant background noise of, “What’s the next bad thing that’s going to happen?” I grew up in a poor neighborhood and lived inside the city limits most of my life there, until my thirties. So nighttime automatic-weapons fire, street fights, and break-ins were not uncommon. When I was a kid, I had my bike stolen from our garage. When I was a teenager, my car was stolen from the grocery-store parking lot where I worked. When I was 10, I was bitten severely by a German shepherd on my newspaper route, requiring months of wound care and rehab once it became infected. My mom was sick throughout my early teens and passed away when I was 17. I was hit by a car, walking home from work when I was 16, and nearly had to have my leg amputated; it ended up being an inch shorter than the other one, and I’ve had a limp ever since. So you could say I had a typical Cleveland upbringing...." https://pleasekillme.com/my-dad-is-dead/
	♥ 12:37pm Carmichael: @Tim, he is also the father of the actress who played the daughter in The Wonder Years.
	12:38pm Bianconeri: De Barres was also the replacement for Robert Palmer in Power Station!
	♥ 12:39pm efd: as I said, I was only scratching the surface of Michael des Barres' career!
	♥ 12:40pm tim from washington: @carmichael - you just tripled my knowledge of Des Barres! Speaking of which whenever I see Power Supply on the playlist I wonder "Why, oh why, is the DJ playing Power Station?" hahaha
	12:40pm Dutch: @morphe: Well, you might approach it Schopenhauer style "The safest way to not be miserable is to not expect to be very happy."
	12:40pm bob_ham: I think I found a new favorite band: Power Supply.
	♥ 12:41pm tim from washington: Power Supply's album title could work for Power Station too.
	♥ 12:42pm steveo: what about Air Supply?
	12:42pm clarke: no power at all.
	♥ 12:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ha! Yeah, I glanced up at the popup and read it as "Air Supply"...kind of a mind-bender for a couple of seconds.
	♥ 12:43pm steveo: [stares at the word Supply until it becomes an incoherent jumble of unlikely scratch marks]
	12:43pm clarke: power ballads with little to none.
	♥ 12:44pm tim from washington: Air Supply is not out of the question on a John Allen playlist. Or maybe that's Spyro Gyra?
	♥ 12:44pm steveo: yes clarke i see what you did
	12:46pm clarke: i do what i can.
	12:46pm clarke: what was the name of stalingrad before josef?
	♥ 12:47pm Carmichael: I recant my statement about the daughyter in Wonder Years. She is the daughter of Mike D'Abo of Mandfred Mann. Got my British rockers confused ...
	12:47pm clarke: (yes, i could look this up).
	12:48pm clarke: D'Abo - wrote some good choons!!
	12:48pm Tom from Stirling: is it? It is! Pays P. They so crazy. Crazy good! How do you say crazy in French?
	♥ 12:48pm McGroovey: Volgograd
	♥ 12:48pm tim from washington: This Pays P. guitar mangling is right up my alley. Great Dustdevils or Live Skull vibes.
	♥ 12:48pm Handy Haversack: Pays P.! I remain convinced that it's a play on "Pepé" (and maybe "pipi"). "Fou."
	12:48pm clarke: i knew mcgroovey would come thru!!
	♥ 12:51pm Handy Haversack: Exbats! This set is its own power supply!
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: Looks like Pays P recorded in Brooklyn with the dude from the Obits (if I have his name right).
	12:52pm clarke: HH - the dismantling of the empire is in progress. packing boxes, etc, while checking in Here.
	♥ 12:53pm Handy Haversack: I don't envy you, clarke -- but excited for you to get back to NOLA!
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: Always happy to hear this one!
	♥ 12:54pm Carmichael: Spiro Gyra is a Duane playlist tune.
	12:54pm DouglasInDallas: Exbats sounding like Siouxsie Sioux meets Grace Slick
	♥ 12:56pm tim from washington: The mystery of a ghost in the record store?
	12:57pm clarke: well, like all the kids, this is the procrastination move. i am putting stuff in a (very close-by) storage unit. will come back for it in a van, later.
	12:57pm Tom from Stirling: Thats cause Pays P. is crazy aka fou.
	♥ 12:58pm Handy Haversack: It would be "pay(i) pay. "Pie-ees" would be the Spanish pronunciation for "pais." That terminal "s" is silent in French when followed by a consonant.
	♥ 12:58pm Autumn from Kansas: You're a regular Poirot! Good sleuthing.
	12:58pm clarke: i'll be hitting nola with my work station and some clothes. (i already have a ton of stuff and instruments and gear stored there)>
	♥ 12:58pm McGroovey: If that's the way those Pays P tracks appear on the record, that's mangled French, and you can be given for any confusion.
	12:59pm Tom from Stirling: pays p orridge hot pays p orridge cold pays p orridge in the pot nine days old.
	♥ 12:59pm Handy Haversack: Did you funksters know that efd's DJ Premium this year is Starting with the Seventies: Lucky Volume 7? it's true! And you can see that and many others here: wfmu.org... Those Pays P. people are sneaky!
	1:00pm clarke: i never take the premiums.
	1:02pm Mister Dobalina: Gotta cheese it now, sad I'm gonna miss the social media air horn segment. Ugh!
	1:03pm clarke: Dobes!! in'n'out!! piece!!
	♥ 1:05pm Figgsrock: For people here that care, the RSD list is out: recordstoreday.com...
	1:07pm clarke: wow - there's some Rick Astley in there, ha ha.
	1:08pm clarke: attn: karlward!!
	1:09pm clarke: my favorite lloyd cole quote (paraphrasing a bit): "i find as i get older i have less and less use for jazz"
	♥ 1:10pm Figgsrock: Oh I love love love the Negatives album. My friend Dave played bass for them and saw them do a few great gigs in that era.
	1:12pm Van: Howdy everybody!
	♥ 1:14pm prof.fuzz: I got a shipping notice from goner records a few days ago saying my copy of the ex-bats record was in the mail. yeehaw!
	1:15pm clarke: good day sir fuzz!
	1:15pm Robm: Hello fellow funksters
	1:16pm clarke: @Figgsrock - the first thang that really jumps out at me is that Camera Obscura b-sides and rarity disc.
	♥ 1:16pm Handy Haversack: Nice, prof.fuzz! We preorderd that on vinyl as the impetus to make us either get our turntable fixed or get a new one -- and it worked! It was the first thing we listened to once up and running.
	1:17pm Van: Talk Talk had that trifecta, I believe
	1:19pm clarke: there are some good deals on turntables out there, handy!
	♥ 1:19pm prof.fuzz: Hey EFD! Clarke! Handy! just popping in for a bit between classes today.
	1:20pm clarke: this class is Guitar 101 - a pre-requisite, Fuzz!
	♥ 1:21pm prof.fuzz: i forgot everything i learned in Guitar 101, and look where it got me!!!
	1:21pm clarke: dallas.
	♥ 1:22pm prof.fuzz: exactly!
	1:23pm clarke: wow - wuz wondering where Matt Piucci had gotten to!! i know he had been singing with Crazy Horse for a stint when neil had 'forgotten' them.
	1:24pm clarke: or forsaken them.
	1:26pm clarke: fine stuff!!
	1:26pm Van: This Bye Bye Blackbirds tune is excellent
	♥ 1:26pm Handy Haversack: Live Seeds is also very compelling on that RSD list. And Sandy Denny. Oh ho, that Lou Reed 1971 demos, I'm so free, that was in the copyright dump in December is on the list! The plot thickens!
	1:26pm Robm: @Handy per what we talked about with a female singer during julies show yesterday, did you send a message to shelia about it, or you don’t think it is something she would have on her show?
	1:27pm Various Julius: Aw yeah.
	1:29pm Van: Neal Francis' voice reminds me a lot of Damian from Ok Go
	♥ 1:30pm Frank Zaatar: This is to Imperial Bedroom as the Jaggs were to My Aim Is True.
	♥ 1:33pm efd: @Frank Zaatar I feel like the 40 year difference between the EC and NF releases makes that a tough comparison.
	1:34pm Andres: !!So great!!
	♥ 1:35pm Frank Zaatar: Good point. By now Imperial Bedroom has sunk into the collective unconscious.
	♥ 1:37pm luka: again!!
	1:38pm Morphe': Unprecedented FMU double take!!!???
	1:38pm Van: Two-fer Weds!
	1:38pm Joe B: just like at a Wogglea gig!
	♥ 1:39pm Handy Haversack: Some people really like to boogaloo.
	1:39pm clarke: i think Dewey Phillips played Hound Dog 26 times in a row.
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @Joe B haha!
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @Joe B they're an efd CoreArtist™
	♥ 1:39pm Ciggy: Karate chop
	♥ 1:40pm prof.fuzz: EFDcore is one of my fave sub-genres.
	1:41pm Joe B: wow would not have guessed! in the sub sub genre of our shared core artists!
	♥ 1:42pm Handy Haversack: The EFDCore second stage is always a highlight at CanConFest.
	♥ 1:42pm Ciggy: Pornography on rsd/uk
	♥ 1:42pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, saw that, Ciggy!
	♥ 1:43pm karlward: EFestivalD lineup is strictly limited to 70 artists
	1:44pm TerrDE: you're killin it !👍
	♥ 1:44pm prof.fuzz: gotta go teach a couple classes! stay well y'all!
	1:46pm clarke: don gardner correccct
	1:51pm Mister Dobalina: I'm back, did I miss the social media airhorn segment?
	1:51pm clarke: not yet!
	♥ 1:52pm Asheville Jon: not yet mister dobalina
	1:52pm clarke: u still have a chance to miss it!
	♥ 1:52pm luka: don't let em take your mind
	1:52pm DouglasInDallas: Flat Earth Society posted they have members all around the globe! 😂
	♥ 1:53pm efd: lol, @DouglasInDallas!
	1:53pm Mister Dobalina: Thanks! The day is still not lost.
	1:53pm clarke: The Non-Communication Guild has no reply.
	♥ 1:55pm Asheville Jon: i agree mister dobalina. i have the show playing through my shop stereo today. i guarantee when the time comes, my neighbors three houses away will know it is SMAH time!
	♥ 1:56pm luka: love this Alice track
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Your neighbors are very lucky to have a neighbor such as yourself, Asheville J.
	♥ 1:57pm Roberto: Whoa, this is some very un-Alice Alice. In a good way!
	1:58pm clarke: the album this comes from is really good.
	♥ 1:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: This is one of the better "Oh dang, I need to get with the 80s" tracks from the old-timers.
	♥ 1:58pm Sproutsonic: Clones! I've always loved this one. Requested it at the roller skating rink in Peterborough Ontario in the 80s as a kid at my birthday party, and the DJ looked at me like I was crazy!
	1:58pm gorp: this is the one he doesn't remember recording right?
	♥ 1:58pm Asheville Jon: i am sure they enjoy brief moments of WFMU brilliance. (I also live kinda out in the (rapidly decreasing) "country" part of asheville, so my neighbors are not super close)
	1:58pm Andres: Gary Numan and Alice Cooper touring together?
	♥ 1:58pm luka: @gorp this is the LAST one he recalls
	♥ 1:59pm luka: he doesn't remember a lick of Armed Forces, Zipper Catches Skin or DaDa
	♥ 1:59pm Rich in Washington: For decades I 'ironically' liked this song and now I unironically love it.
	1:59pm gorp: @luka haha well at least his mind went out on top!
	2:00pm Mister Dobalina: I forgot how much I like tech segment of this show.
	2:00pm clarke: u guys have heard alice's latest album right? not the 'average' cooper
	♥ 2:01pm luka: DaDa is terrifying. so is ZCS. just unsettling. Armed Forces is also weird, but has "Skeletons in the Closet" which rules.
	2:03pm BH: checking in from a part of the country where the forecast says we're about to drop from 65 degrees to 25 degrees in the next 18 hours imagine how terrifying that would be before people were able to forecast the weather
	2:03pm clarke: i hope it ain't near me!!
	♥ 2:04pm Carmichael: Tommy Sunsets pre-clicked. And for good reason.
	♥ 2:05pm efd: @BH that's gonna be us Friday/Saturday, I think.
	♥ 2:05pm efd: Well played, @Carmichael
	2:07pm gorp: I'ma have to check em out! I remember likin the Class of 1984 song. Alice Cooper was my second ever concert in like 2004 at the Sandusky Ohio Theater of all places. Still put on a good show after all those years of drug abuse and golfing.
	♥ 2:08pm Handy Haversack: Drugs must have kept the golf from getting to him.
	2:10pm gorp: the rare positive contraindication
	2:11pm Mister Dobalina: Did someone say ...drugs?
	2:12pm gorp: speaking of drugs - anybody goin to that DFA anniversary showcase thing at Knockdown? Trying to decide if it's worth the 60 dollars plus whatever I'll have to spend on supplements
	♥ 2:14pm Ryansterlingvirtue: best new band.
	♥ 2:14pm Carmichael: I read somewhere that Cooper at one point was drinking Tab cola by the boatload.
	2:17pm clarke: as opposed to the case of Bud daily when he was on tour for Welcome To My Nightmare
	2:19pm bob_ham: Looks like Carron was in a band called Gulliver. www.discogs.com...
	♥ 2:21pm efd: huh, thanks Bob!
	♥ 2:23pm Carmichael: A bio on Carron: rockonworkshop.wordpress.com...
	♥ 2:23pm Autumn from Kansas: That Memes song reminded me of the Mush song you played a few months ago (Blunt Instruments?)
	♥ 2:24pm Alvy Singer: @EFD.. Here is a little more in depth info on David Carron. www.wendydarlingdesigns.com...
	♥ 2:24pm efd: @Autumn yes, similar sound!
	♥ 2:26pm efd: Thanks all for the David Carron info! i'll take a look later.
	2:26pm clarke: slappin' de bass mon!!
	♥ 2:28pm Wenzo Toad: love Lewsberg
	♥ 2:28pm Carmichael: Flying Lizards ...
	♥ 2:31pm McGroovey: Flush the Fashion had a new-wavish cover of the Music Machine's "Talk Talk". It wasn't bad, but it's no Music Machine. It's the only Alice Cooper record I have. Clones was one of teenage me's favorite songs that year. The album very quickly went into cutouts. Side A is a great listen, because you get the payoff of the songs Clones. I'm not sure I've listened to side B more than once or twice.
	♥ 2:31pm Hoboken Jack: Late hello! Was digging the song, then happy to learn it's Lewsburg, who I have an album by.
	2:32pm clarke: it's j-a-a-a-a-ck
	♥ 2:33pm efd: Hello Hoboken Jack!
	♥ 2:33pm brycepunk1: Loving the set today, Evan. Thank you!
	♥ 2:33pm Handy Haversack: Heya, Jack!
	2:35pm Mister Dobalina: Lichen these sounds!
	2:36pm Morphe': Gotta run some errands... on an actual schedule today .. Thanks efd and all !!!!
	♥ 2:38pm Figgsrock: EFD, James Gunn just tweeted this a little while ago. No Eagley sound effect though: youtu.be...
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: efd, we tried to get tix to see Lulu Lewis at Mercury Lounge, but they no longer deliver tickets except via an app. No box office anymore. So I guess we'll head down there the day of the show and see if they will let us exchange money for goods and services and let us in the damn door without an app.
	♥ 2:39pm efd: @Figgsrock ha! will watch after the show!
	♥ 2:40pm PaulRobeson1920: Rock & Stinkinn Rolll efd!
	♥ 2:43pm ChukAmok: @Handy Gatekeeping based on access to technology, intended or not, is just...backwards. Is it the same for Bowery Ballroom?
	2:45pm clarke: My Personal Wheelhouse -- opening for Altered Kittens friday
	♥ 2:45pm Handy Haversack: Yup, ChukAmok. Oddly, I was able to get Ticketweb tix for the Chats at Warsaw, which is in their group, but maybe they haven't upgraded the wilds of Greenpoint yet. Sharon Van Etten and Angel Olsen at Central Park Summerstage is right out, though.
	2:47pm Miss Georgia Peach: Great show today!
	2:49pm gorp: @handy hey! They def will take your physical money as long as it doesn't sell out which unfortunately somehow seems to be every single show these days :/
	2:51pm clarke: fun-tastic, once again!! thnx!
	♥ 2:52pm Figgsrock: I know a couple of people comment after I posted the Record Store Day list and I couldn't respond because I was writing stories about the list for work. I'd have to say that my highlights are Superchunk's Incidental Music, the Prince Gold Experience, the Blondie EP with two unreleased tracks and The Who's It's Hard 40th with Daltrey singing "Eminence Front."
	♥ 2:52pm efd: @clarke! Thanks! Good luck with the packing, etc. When's the move?
	2:54pm clarke: 23rd - thanks!!
	♥ 2:56pm Handy Haversack: K8 will definitely want that Prince release, Figgsrock! Many thanks, efd! I'd say the show was capital, but that's a dirty word around these parts. Let's just say it was excellent in any case! Later on, all!
	♥ 2:56pm efd: @Miss Georgia Peach Thank you! Love your version of "Back Side Of Dallas," was hoping to get to it today but I think I'm gonna fail in that mission. :(
	♥ 2:57pm Handy Haversack: And thanks, gorp -- that's what we figured. But still.
	12:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many decades since I've heard 'Ace Supreme' ?!? ...Sounds like maybe The Total Rejection had too much to dream last night ...by way of Hawkwind? (love it)... ~ TY Always DJ efd ~

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from February 16, 2022

View efd's profile

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.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. May 1st, Noon - 3pm: UV-TV (More info...)
UV-TV formed in Gainesville, Florida, in the mid-2010s, but by the turn of the decade they’d relocated to New York City. Their first release after moving to NYC, 2021’s Always Something, was one of EFD’s favorites of that year; they’ll play some songs from that album as well as some new songs from an upcoming release. Tune in for some post-punk jangle-drone!
Wed. May 22nd, Noon - 3pm: The Prof. Fuzz 63 (More info...)
The Prof. Fuzz 63 are a three-piece family band from just north of Dallas. They’re also literally a garage band. Their garage/practice space is adorned with photos of The Cramps, among others, and singer uses an old telephone handset for a mic. What else do you need to know? OK, they’re also playing May 22 at Berlin in NYC and May 23 at Finnegan’s in Hoboken.

	♥ 12:08pm Asheville Jon: sad to see the air horn icons have disappeared. gearing up for the marathon i guess. perhaps an overzealous blasting of the airhorn today will help ease the pain.
	♥ 12:10pm efd: @Asheville Jon they'll come back for whoever pledges to my show next month!
	♥ 12:10pm dave wuz here: had this turbines album on the TT last night. hickey/hovorka were amazing

	♥ 12:14pm Handy Haversack: I concur with tim's review!
	12:15pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: EFD is WAY better than EST. I saw a couple fictional EST sessions on The Americans tv show, it was pretty awkward and weird looking.
	12:16pm clarke: like moving in nextdoor to the sapperstein's in the dakota building...

	♥ 12:21pm karlward: "If this playlist doesn't make you drive with a brick in your hand then nothing will"
	♥ 12:21pm Jason from Houston: Rolling hard, man. Rolling hard.
	12:22pm Bianconeri: Karlward: brickwalled really meant something back then!
	♥ 12:22pm Jason from Houston: Don't forget: You can't give the Texas over-the-steering-wheel-finger-wave with a brick in your hand.
	♥ 12:23pm Stevel: Godfathers!!
	12:25pm AC Paint: Silverhead! Good god…when I was a kid in the early 70sI went to my cousins band practice & Ace Supreme was a song they covered.This led me to seek them out…’16 & Savaged’ I believe was the album…a spinal tappishly cheerful bundle of misogynistic impulses that would not fly today
	♥ 12:28pm mrdonutsu: 2020?!? That long ago, damn.
	♥ 12:29pm Rich in Washington: Johnny & The Distractions! Classic Portland OR scenesters!

	12:35pm Danny in Poughkeepsie: Hello EFD. Happy Wednesday!!!
	12:35pm Dutch: WFMU - Schopenhauers favorite musicstation!!! :-)
	♥ 12:35pm Alvy Singer: @tim from washington...And Michael was married to super groupie Pamela Des Barres who was in the GTO's.
	12:36pm Morphe': efd (and all who missed it) efd - that was a great article ya sent in last week to Pseu's show Re: Mark Edwards = My DAD IS DEAD .. Fav quote: " I’ve always thought the people of Cleveland had a remarkable resilience in the face of national jokes, declining industry and job base, dilapidated housing stock, losing sports teams, you get the picture. It definitely contributed to the yeah-but-we’re-still-here mentality, but also a constant background noise of, “What’s the next bad thing that’s going to happen?” I grew up in a poor neighborhood and lived inside the city limits most of my life there, until my thirties. So nighttime automatic-weapons fire, street fights, and break-ins were not uncommon. When I was a kid, I had my bike stolen from our garage. When I was a teenager, my car was stolen from the grocery-store parking lot where I worked. When I was 10, I was bitten severely by a German shepherd on my newspaper route, requiring months of wound care and rehab once it became infected. My mom was sick throughout my early teens and passed away when I was 17. I was hit by a car, walking home from work when I was 16, and nearly had to have my leg amputated; it ended up being an inch shorter than the other one, and I’ve had a limp ever since. So you could say I had a typical Cleveland upbringing...." https://pleasekillme.com/my-dad-is-dead/
	♥ 12:37pm Carmichael: @Tim, he is also the father of the actress who played the daughter in The Wonder Years.
	12:38pm Bianconeri: De Barres was also the replacement for Robert Palmer in Power Station!
	♥ 12:39pm efd: as I said, I was only scratching the surface of Michael des Barres' career!
	♥ 12:40pm tim from washington: @carmichael - you just tripled my knowledge of Des Barres! Speaking of which whenever I see Power Supply on the playlist I wonder "Why, oh why, is the DJ playing Power Station?" hahaha
	12:40pm Dutch: @morphe: Well, you might approach it Schopenhauer style "The safest way to not be miserable is to not expect to be very happy."
	12:40pm bob_ham: I think I found a new favorite band: Power Supply.
	♥ 12:41pm tim from washington: Power Supply's album title could work for Power Station too.
	♥ 12:42pm steveo: what about Air Supply?
	12:42pm clarke: no power at all.
	♥ 12:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ha! Yeah, I glanced up at the popup and read it as "Air Supply"...kind of a mind-bender for a couple of seconds.
	♥ 12:43pm steveo: [stares at the word Supply until it becomes an incoherent jumble of unlikely scratch marks]
	12:43pm clarke: power ballads with little to none.
	♥ 12:44pm tim from washington: Air Supply is not out of the question on a John Allen playlist. Or maybe that's Spyro Gyra?
	♥ 12:44pm steveo: yes clarke i see what you did
	12:46pm clarke: i do what i can.
	12:46pm clarke: what was the name of stalingrad before josef?
	♥ 12:47pm Carmichael: I recant my statement about the daughyter in Wonder Years. She is the daughter of Mike D'Abo of Mandfred Mann. Got my British rockers confused ...
	12:47pm clarke: (yes, i could look this up).
	12:48pm clarke: D'Abo - wrote some good choons!!
	12:48pm Tom from Stirling: is it? It is! Pays P. They so crazy. Crazy good! How do you say crazy in French?
	♥ 12:48pm McGroovey: Volgograd
	♥ 12:48pm tim from washington: This Pays P. guitar mangling is right up my alley. Great Dustdevils or Live Skull vibes.
	♥ 12:48pm Handy Haversack: Pays P.! I remain convinced that it's a play on "Pepé" (and maybe "pipi"). "Fou."
	12:48pm clarke: i knew mcgroovey would come thru!!
	♥ 12:51pm Handy Haversack: Exbats! This set is its own power supply!
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: Looks like Pays P recorded in Brooklyn with the dude from the Obits (if I have his name right).
	12:52pm clarke: HH - the dismantling of the empire is in progress. packing boxes, etc, while checking in Here.
	♥ 12:53pm Handy Haversack: I don't envy you, clarke -- but excited for you to get back to NOLA!
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: Always happy to hear this one!
	♥ 12:54pm Carmichael: Spiro Gyra is a Duane playlist tune.
	12:54pm DouglasInDallas: Exbats sounding like Siouxsie Sioux meets Grace Slick
	♥ 12:56pm tim from washington: The mystery of a ghost in the record store?
	12:57pm clarke: well, like all the kids, this is the procrastination move. i am putting stuff in a (very close-by) storage unit. will come back for it in a van, later.
	12:57pm Tom from Stirling: Thats cause Pays P. is crazy aka fou.
	♥ 12:58pm Handy Haversack: It would be "pay(i) pay. "Pie-ees" would be the Spanish pronunciation for "pais." That terminal "s" is silent in French when followed by a consonant.
	♥ 12:58pm Autumn from Kansas: You're a regular Poirot! Good sleuthing.
	12:58pm clarke: i'll be hitting nola with my work station and some clothes. (i already have a ton of stuff and instruments and gear stored there)>
	♥ 12:58pm McGroovey: If that's the way those Pays P tracks appear on the record, that's mangled French, and you can be given for any confusion.
	12:59pm Tom from Stirling: pays p orridge hot pays p orridge cold pays p orridge in the pot nine days old.
	♥ 12:59pm Handy Haversack: Did you funksters know that efd's DJ Premium this year is Starting with the Seventies: Lucky Volume 7? it's true! And you can see that and many others here: wfmu.org... Those Pays P. people are sneaky!
	1:00pm clarke: i never take the premiums.
	1:02pm Mister Dobalina: Gotta cheese it now, sad I'm gonna miss the social media air horn segment. Ugh!
	1:03pm clarke: Dobes!! in'n'out!! piece!!
	♥ 1:05pm Figgsrock: For people here that care, the RSD list is out: recordstoreday.com...
	1:07pm clarke: wow - there's some Rick Astley in there, ha ha.
	1:08pm clarke: attn: karlward!!
	1:09pm clarke: my favorite lloyd cole quote (paraphrasing a bit): "i find as i get older i have less and less use for jazz"
	♥ 1:10pm Figgsrock: Oh I love love love the Negatives album. My friend Dave played bass for them and saw them do a few great gigs in that era.
	1:12pm Van: Howdy everybody!
	♥ 1:14pm prof.fuzz: I got a shipping notice from goner records a few days ago saying my copy of the ex-bats record was in the mail. yeehaw!
	1:15pm clarke: good day sir fuzz!
	1:15pm Robm: Hello fellow funksters
	1:16pm clarke: @Figgsrock - the first thang that really jumps out at me is that Camera Obscura b-sides and rarity disc.
	♥ 1:16pm Handy Haversack: Nice, prof.fuzz! We preorderd that on vinyl as the impetus to make us either get our turntable fixed or get a new one -- and it worked! It was the first thing we listened to once up and running.
	1:17pm Van: Talk Talk had that trifecta, I believe
	1:19pm clarke: there are some good deals on turntables out there, handy!
	♥ 1:19pm prof.fuzz: Hey EFD! Clarke! Handy! just popping in for a bit between classes today.
	1:20pm clarke: this class is Guitar 101 - a pre-requisite, Fuzz!
	♥ 1:21pm prof.fuzz: i forgot everything i learned in Guitar 101, and look where it got me!!!
	1:21pm clarke: dallas.
	♥ 1:22pm prof.fuzz: exactly!
	1:23pm clarke: wow - wuz wondering where Matt Piucci had gotten to!! i know he had been singing with Crazy Horse for a stint when neil had 'forgotten' them.
	1:24pm clarke: or forsaken them.
	1:26pm clarke: fine stuff!!
	1:26pm Van: This Bye Bye Blackbirds tune is excellent
	♥ 1:26pm Handy Haversack: Live Seeds is also very compelling on that RSD list. And Sandy Denny. Oh ho, that Lou Reed 1971 demos, I'm so free, that was in the copyright dump in December is on the list! The plot thickens!
	1:26pm Robm: @Handy per what we talked about with a female singer during julies show yesterday, did you send a message to shelia about it, or you don’t think it is something she would have on her show?
	1:27pm Various Julius: Aw yeah.
	1:29pm Van: Neal Francis' voice reminds me a lot of Damian from Ok Go
	♥ 1:30pm Frank Zaatar: This is to Imperial Bedroom as the Jaggs were to My Aim Is True.
	♥ 1:33pm efd: @Frank Zaatar I feel like the 40 year difference between the EC and NF releases makes that a tough comparison.
	1:34pm Andres: !!So great!!
	♥ 1:35pm Frank Zaatar: Good point. By now Imperial Bedroom has sunk into the collective unconscious.
	♥ 1:37pm luka: again!!
	1:38pm Morphe': Unprecedented FMU double take!!!???
	1:38pm Van: Two-fer Weds!
	1:38pm Joe B: just like at a Wogglea gig!
	♥ 1:39pm Handy Haversack: Some people really like to boogaloo.
	1:39pm clarke: i think Dewey Phillips played Hound Dog 26 times in a row.
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @Joe B haha!
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @Joe B they're an efd CoreArtist™
	♥ 1:39pm Ciggy: Karate chop
	♥ 1:40pm prof.fuzz: EFDcore is one of my fave sub-genres.
	1:41pm Joe B: wow would not have guessed! in the sub sub genre of our shared core artists!
	♥ 1:42pm Handy Haversack: The EFDCore second stage is always a highlight at CanConFest.
	♥ 1:42pm Ciggy: Pornography on rsd/uk
	♥ 1:42pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, saw that, Ciggy!
	♥ 1:43pm karlward: EFestivalD lineup is strictly limited to 70 artists
	1:44pm TerrDE: you're killin it !👍
	♥ 1:44pm prof.fuzz: gotta go teach a couple classes! stay well y'all!
	1:46pm clarke: don gardner correccct
	1:51pm Mister Dobalina: I'm back, did I miss the social media airhorn segment?
	1:51pm clarke: not yet!
	♥ 1:52pm Asheville Jon: not yet mister dobalina
	1:52pm clarke: u still have a chance to miss it!
	♥ 1:52pm luka: don't let em take your mind
	1:52pm DouglasInDallas: Flat Earth Society posted they have members all around the globe! 😂
	♥ 1:53pm efd: lol, @DouglasInDallas!
	1:53pm Mister Dobalina: Thanks! The day is still not lost.
	1:53pm clarke: The Non-Communication Guild has no reply.
	♥ 1:55pm Asheville Jon: i agree mister dobalina. i have the show playing through my shop stereo today. i guarantee when the time comes, my neighbors three houses away will know it is SMAH time!
	♥ 1:56pm luka: love this Alice track
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Your neighbors are very lucky to have a neighbor such as yourself, Asheville J.
	♥ 1:57pm Roberto: Whoa, this is some very un-Alice Alice. In a good way!
	1:58pm clarke: the album this comes from is really good.
	♥ 1:58pm Hopey Sockmonkey: This is one of the better "Oh dang, I need to get with the 80s" tracks from the old-timers.
	♥ 1:58pm Sproutsonic: Clones! I've always loved this one. Requested it at the roller skating rink in Peterborough Ontario in the 80s as a kid at my birthday party, and the DJ looked at me like I was crazy!
	1:58pm gorp: this is the one he doesn't remember recording right?
	♥ 1:58pm Asheville Jon: i am sure they enjoy brief moments of WFMU brilliance. (I also live kinda out in the (rapidly decreasing) "country" part of asheville, so my neighbors are not super close)
	1:58pm Andres: Gary Numan and Alice Cooper touring together?
	♥ 1:58pm luka: @gorp this is the LAST one he recalls
	♥ 1:59pm luka: he doesn't remember a lick of Armed Forces, Zipper Catches Skin or DaDa
	♥ 1:59pm Rich in Washington: For decades I 'ironically' liked this song and now I unironically love it.
	1:59pm gorp: @luka haha well at least his mind went out on top!
	2:00pm Mister Dobalina: I forgot how much I like tech segment of this show.
	2:00pm clarke: u guys have heard alice's latest album right? not the 'average' cooper
	♥ 2:01pm luka: DaDa is terrifying. so is ZCS. just unsettling. Armed Forces is also weird, but has "Skeletons in the Closet" which rules.
	2:03pm BH: checking in from a part of the country where the forecast says we're about to drop from 65 degrees to 25 degrees in the next 18 hours imagine how terrifying that would be before people were able to forecast the weather
	2:03pm clarke: i hope it ain't near me!!
	♥ 2:04pm Carmichael: Tommy Sunsets pre-clicked. And for good reason.
	♥ 2:05pm efd: @BH that's gonna be us Friday/Saturday, I think.
	♥ 2:05pm efd: Well played, @Carmichael
	2:07pm gorp: I'ma have to check em out! I remember likin the Class of 1984 song. Alice Cooper was my second ever concert in like 2004 at the Sandusky Ohio Theater of all places. Still put on a good show after all those years of drug abuse and golfing.
	♥ 2:08pm Handy Haversack: Drugs must have kept the golf from getting to him.
	2:10pm gorp: the rare positive contraindication
	2:11pm Mister Dobalina: Did someone say ...drugs?
	2:12pm gorp: speaking of drugs - anybody goin to that DFA anniversary showcase thing at Knockdown? Trying to decide if it's worth the 60 dollars plus whatever I'll have to spend on supplements
	♥ 2:14pm Ryansterlingvirtue: best new band.
	♥ 2:14pm Carmichael: I read somewhere that Cooper at one point was drinking Tab cola by the boatload.
	2:17pm clarke: as opposed to the case of Bud daily when he was on tour for Welcome To My Nightmare
	2:19pm bob_ham: Looks like Carron was in a band called Gulliver. www.discogs.com...
	♥ 2:21pm efd: huh, thanks Bob!
	♥ 2:23pm Carmichael: A bio on Carron: rockonworkshop.wordpress.com...
	♥ 2:23pm Autumn from Kansas: That Memes song reminded me of the Mush song you played a few months ago (Blunt Instruments?)
	♥ 2:24pm Alvy Singer: @EFD.. Here is a little more in depth info on David Carron. www.wendydarlingdesigns.com...
	♥ 2:24pm efd: @Autumn yes, similar sound!
	♥ 2:26pm efd: Thanks all for the David Carron info! i'll take a look later.
	2:26pm clarke: slappin' de bass mon!!
	♥ 2:28pm Wenzo Toad: love Lewsberg
	♥ 2:28pm Carmichael: Flying Lizards ...
	♥ 2:31pm McGroovey: Flush the Fashion had a new-wavish cover of the Music Machine's "Talk Talk". It wasn't bad, but it's no Music Machine. It's the only Alice Cooper record I have. Clones was one of teenage me's favorite songs that year. The album very quickly went into cutouts. Side A is a great listen, because you get the payoff of the songs Clones. I'm not sure I've listened to side B more than once or twice.
	♥ 2:31pm Hoboken Jack: Late hello! Was digging the song, then happy to learn it's Lewsburg, who I have an album by.
	2:32pm clarke: it's j-a-a-a-a-ck
	♥ 2:33pm efd: Hello Hoboken Jack!
	♥ 2:33pm brycepunk1: Loving the set today, Evan. Thank you!
	♥ 2:33pm Handy Haversack: Heya, Jack!
	2:35pm Mister Dobalina: Lichen these sounds!
	2:36pm Morphe': Gotta run some errands... on an actual schedule today .. Thanks efd and all !!!!
	♥ 2:38pm Figgsrock: EFD, James Gunn just tweeted this a little while ago. No Eagley sound effect though: youtu.be...
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: efd, we tried to get tix to see Lulu Lewis at Mercury Lounge, but they no longer deliver tickets except via an app. No box office anymore. So I guess we'll head down there the day of the show and see if they will let us exchange money for goods and services and let us in the damn door without an app.
	♥ 2:39pm efd: @Figgsrock ha! will watch after the show!
	♥ 2:40pm PaulRobeson1920: Rock & Stinkinn Rolll efd!
	♥ 2:43pm ChukAmok: @Handy Gatekeeping based on access to technology, intended or not, is just...backwards. Is it the same for Bowery Ballroom?
	2:45pm clarke: My Personal Wheelhouse -- opening for Altered Kittens friday
	♥ 2:45pm Handy Haversack: Yup, ChukAmok. Oddly, I was able to get Ticketweb tix for the Chats at Warsaw, which is in their group, but maybe they haven't upgraded the wilds of Greenpoint yet. Sharon Van Etten and Angel Olsen at Central Park Summerstage is right out, though.
	2:47pm Miss Georgia Peach: Great show today!
	2:49pm gorp: @handy hey! They def will take your physical money as long as it doesn't sell out which unfortunately somehow seems to be every single show these days :/
	2:51pm clarke: fun-tastic, once again!! thnx!
	♥ 2:52pm Figgsrock: I know a couple of people comment after I posted the Record Store Day list and I couldn't respond because I was writing stories about the list for work. I'd have to say that my highlights are Superchunk's Incidental Music, the Prince Gold Experience, the Blondie EP with two unreleased tracks and The Who's It's Hard 40th with Daltrey singing "Eminence Front."
	♥ 2:52pm efd: @clarke! Thanks! Good luck with the packing, etc. When's the move?
	2:54pm clarke: 23rd - thanks!!
	♥ 2:56pm Handy Haversack: K8 will definitely want that Prince release, Figgsrock! Many thanks, efd! I'd say the show was capital, but that's a dirty word around these parts. Let's just say it was excellent in any case! Later on, all!
	♥ 2:56pm efd: @Miss Georgia Peach Thank you! Love your version of "Back Side Of Dallas," was hoping to get to it today but I think I'm gonna fail in that mission. :(
	♥ 2:57pm Handy Haversack: And thanks, gorp -- that's what we figured. But still.
	12:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: How many decades since I've heard 'Ace Supreme' ?!? ...Sounds like maybe The Total Rejection had too much to dream last night ...by way of Hawkwind? (love it)... ~ TY Always DJ efd ~
