	12:01pm SeanG: EFD!!
	12:02pm listener phillip (in the bronx): Welcome back Mr "Funk"😁
	12:02pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: This is pretty New Wave for 1978. Kinda channelling Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music here.
	12:02pm Morgan: foxx and us
	12:03pm listener phillip (in the bronx): The Winter of FUNK. that's not so bad
	♥ 12:03pm Chris Crash: #LFGF
	♥ 12:04pm queems: oh nice
	12:04pm listener phillip (in the bronx): No "warm leatherette" intro song?
	♥ 12:05pm queems: i like how he sings like he's congested
	♥ 12:06pm Yes: im enjoying it
	♥ 12:06pm chris_in_space: This LCD SS almost has a "warm leatherette" feel to it.
	12:07pm YETI BOB: Chris in space: What's an SS?
	♥ 12:07pm chris_in_space: @YETI Sound System
	♥ 12:08pm mrdonutsu: Is this all from the other night's Shazam?
	♥ 12:09pm efd: @mrdonutsu that was 90% a joke, but there is one song in this set that is totally from my Monday night Shazamming.
	♥ 12:09pm efd: also, hi everyone! Welcome to December, I'm excited to be back with you!
	12:10pm Rich in Bristol: By accident, my friend and I always sang Hey Boy Hey Girl the wrong way around and would correct ourselves mid-singing along. It was wonderfully awkward every single time. This track is still such a banger, isn't it?
	12:11pm Rich in Bristol: Oh, I guess it was because the title is the opposite way around.
	♥ 12:12pm tim from washington: Howdy, efd and crew! efd puts the FUNK in Evan "Funk" Davies!
	♥ 12:13pm Chris Crash: Lush electronic sounds...I didn't know that's what I needed this morning but it's so satiating
	♥ 12:13pm tim from washington: Greg Kihn cover?
	♥ 12:14pm Figgsrock: Whoa--EFD, I've never heard anyone cover this Russ Ballard track before.
	12:14pm YETI BOB: chris in space: my apologies for the momentary brain failure! i usually just call 'em "LCD"
	♥ 12:14pm pgalub: Gino Vannelli? Hey everyone
	♥ 12:14pm efd: @Figgsrock I knew this would get a rise out of you if you were listening!
	12:15pm TerrDE: I like this...and you can sing "Shout "over it
	♥ 12:15pm efd: I heard this for the first time Monday night at the LCD Soundsystem show and I was losing my mind.
	♥ 12:15pm Figgsrock: @EFD--HAHAHA, you know my love of 1981-1987 AOR well. Have you played this before and I've just missed it?
	♥ 12:16pm Tome: EFD in the Avo !<>! yea
	♥ 12:16pm Figgsrock: "Voices" was the Shazam song? I would have lost my mind before LCD too!
	♥ 12:17pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Zinininni
	♥ 12:17pm Figgsrock: I Shazam'ed it myself so I can look for it later.
	♥ 12:18pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Shazam is magic. OK, actually it's math but still...
	♥ 12:18pm tim from washington: This has aged surprisingly well! Even more surprisingly Prince isn't associated with this Prince like stomper.
	♥ 12:18pm efd: @Figgsrock I haven't even played the Russ Ballard original before! I'll have to rectify that at some point.
	12:21pm Morgan: oh my god i remember this holiday single
	12:21pm Morgan: i thought this was Martha and the Muffins for some reason
	♥ 12:22pm tim from washington: I thought this was Stan Ridgeway for some reason.
	♥ 12:22pm Figgsrock: @EFD--yes, you should! Also, there was a brief time where I thought "How can the band that did 'Another Girl, Another Planet' be the same band that did this 'Holiday' song?"
	12:22pm Morgan: tim is that him in the back?
	12:23pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: This Sly Fox sounds like Kate Bush.
	12:23pm Morgan: this kind of sounds like wall of voodoo after stan left
	♥ 12:25pm efd: @Figgsrock I admit I was looking for that Other Ones LP at home under "ONL" at first and couldn't figure out why it wasn't there.
	♥ 12:26pm Hoboken Jack: Huh, never knew this was Kiki Dee!
	♥ 12:26pm tim from washington: @Morgan - I was just going by the male vocals so I'm totally guessing here. Uh, Mr Funk! Mr Funk! The peanut gallery has a question about who the make vocalist is on the Other Ones song.
	♥ 12:27pm efd: @Hoboken Jack That's even more surprising than never seeing a skunk before!
	♥ 12:28pm efd: @tim et al. - the male vocalist is a member of The Other Ones, Alf Klimek.
	♥ 12:28pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Did know Kiki Dee's voice was so strong. I only remembered the other song which I will not say out loud because it will get stuck in my head all day.
	♥ 12:29pm Hoboken Jack: Hey EFD, Krys, Handy, a little warmer Bagpipe, PEEEEEEEEEEEEETE, all!
	12:31pm listener phillip (in the bronx): Wow! No fill in for cbristmas😱😱😱 a christmas of FUNK😱😱😱
	12:32pm Morgan: nicht Kanadian
	♥ 12:33pm Krys O.: Kiki was in a movie with the Small Faces called Dateline Diamonds in 1966.
	12:33pm TerrDE: @Woods , right , that awful EJ collaboration during his I can sell any shit I'm so popular period, set me against her
	♥ 12:33pm G: I thought I read somewhere that Elton J wanted Dusty Springfield for that "Don't Go Breakin My Heart" song, but she was unavailable, so Kiki Dee was the backup choice. And anything EJ touched in the early and mid 70s turned to gold, including Kiki Dee. I saw her open for EJ in my high school gym at the American School in London, in maybe early 1974.
	♥ 12:35pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @TerrDE: Yeah. I pretty much had only heard that song, though now I realize that I've heard this Kiki Dee Band track but didn't know it was her.
	12:36pm joseloalter: Oh, I went to tse LCD last night, and I did Shazam something early too, but it didn’t find the tune. Amazing sound. Amazing show.
	12:37pm TerrDE: was the Shazam the Sinbad or Shaq version ?
	♥ 12:37pm tim from washington: I'm a casual LCD fan too and also find them typically enjoyable. It's cool they're doing a Clash at Bonds type run.
	♥ 12:40pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, Pete, everyone.
	12:40pm mike osterhout: https://archive.videonale.org/videos/earthly-powers
	12:41pm Morgan: helloo handy
	♥ 12:41pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello EFD & fellow listeners! Hey Jack, Handy!

	♥ 12:42pm tim from washington: Yo Handy!
	♥ 12:44pm Mike From Brooklyn: All good here Handy, except that I have to switch off at 2 for a work call. All good on your end?
	♥ 12:46pm karlward: I saw LCD Soundsystem at Brooklyn Steel a few years ago, great show. In particular, Pat Mahoney (drums) is a joy to watch.
	♥ 12:46pm mrdonutsu: Teenage Queen and that new 22 minute Endless Boogie cut are the closest things to "heavy rotation" I've heard on FMU in a long time.
	♥ 12:48pm Handy Haversack: Been better, Mike. One of the kittens is in some crisis right now. Hoping for the best.
	♥ 12:49pm efd: oh gosh, best wishes for your kitten Handy!
	♥ 12:49pm efd: @karlward Agree 100%! And I love that he's up front so he's more visible!
	♥ 12:50pm tim from washington: @Handy - oh no! a for real crises or just cat drama? I hope the kitty is OK!
	♥ 12:52pm Handy Haversack: Thanks from me and K8 and Goblin (and all the rest!), efd, tim. We're monitoring right now and hoping to avoid emergency vet, ultrasound, possible surgery, but who knows. Next 24 hrs. hopefully see improvement.
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: I love this Mad Rollers!The singer sounds like Ozzy if he'd stayed in the pubs instead of stadiums.
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: Oh man, I've got my fingers crossed, Handy.
	♥ 12:53pm luka: good shout, tim. this sounds great.
	♥ 12:53pm prof.fuzz: Woot! Mad Rollers were our label mates for a while on Sister Raygun Records.
	12:55pm Morgan: aw handy. thats very stressful, I hope the kitten bounces back
	♥ 12:57pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Best wishes for the kitty! Mad Rollers are from Rome Italy.
	12:57pm ?: Good pedigree?

	♥ 1:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, efd and free-form funky friends! Hi, Jack!
	♥ 1:05pm Handy Haversack: You too, mndave! It's so nerve wracking. I know it, DjLorraine! efd, we made another convert to the Crystal Furs in our friend who came over for not-Thanksgiving dinner.
	1:07pm Joe B: welcome back efd!
	♥ 1:10pm efd: Thannks Joe!
	♥ 1:10pm Yvang: Wait...Which New Order song is this?
	♥ 1:13pm Hoboken Jack: Hola HP Ken and Joe! Massage is a guy from Pains of Being Pure at Heart, but not the guy.
	♥ 1:14pm medson: Hey Evan and everyone
	♥ 1:16pm Hoboken Jack: Medson Man!
	♥ 1:17pm efd: heya Medson!
	♥ 1:18pm medson: Hey Jack. Chicken Parm for lunch Today? 🤔
	♥ 1:20pm Hoboken Jack: Wednesday special from Fiore's: sausage and mutz in red sauce
	♥ 1:20pm Mike From Brooklyn: Sorry to hear Handy. I'm sending out healing vibes to Goblin.
	♥ 1:20pm medson: Nice
	♥ 1:22pm Hoboken Jack: The Pains of an Estate Owning a Pure-at-Heart Ghost Show

	1:23pm Morgan: hi medson, your show is consistently 🔥
	♥ 1:24pm Figgsrock: EFD, when is the Doug interview again? I was in my kitchen and didn't hear the date.

	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: I got my HS friends who would all go see the Connells together to all pick up the new album. Was trying to get them interested in the show, but, people with kids ... Next week, Figgsrock!
	♥ 1:26pm Figgsrock: Thanks Handy!
	♥ 1:26pm Fishtown Mike: FYI, the "guy" from the Pains of Being Pure at Heart is now fronting The Natvral. They opened up for Luna here in Philly, and I spent their whole set trying to figure out why the lead singer sounded so familiar.

	♥ 1:28pm medson: Cant wait for that interview

	♥ 1:30pm Hoboken Jack: Yeah Fishtown, he lives in Princeton now and is a super nice guy. Have been lucky to see The Natvral a bunch of times solo and in band format, ia rare instance of an indiepopper successfully reinventing themselves in a different genre!

	♥ 1:41pm Mike Sin: Just sitting back sipping a cup of coffee to this nice-sounding Jeffrey Dean Foster track!
	♥ 1:43pm Handy Haversack: Gotta go out for cat supplies. Thanks, efd. Hope to be back before the end.

	♥ 1:50pm tim from washington: Brooklyn Bridge?
	♥ 1:51pm efd: That's awesome, @Joe B!

	♥ 12:08pm mrdonutsu: Is this all from the other night's Shazam?

	♥ 12:09pm efd: also, hi everyone! Welcome to December, I'm excited to be back with you!
	12:10pm Rich in Bristol: By accident, my friend and I always sang Hey Boy Hey Girl the wrong way around and would correct ourselves mid-singing along. It was wonderfully awkward every single time. This track is still such a banger, isn't it?
	12:11pm Rich in Bristol: Oh, I guess it was because the title is the opposite way around.

	♥ 12:14pm pgalub: Gino Vannelli? Hey everyone
	♥ 12:14pm efd: @Figgsrock I knew this would get a rise out of you if you were listening!
	12:15pm TerrDE: I like this...and you can sing "Shout "over it
	♥ 12:15pm efd: I heard this for the first time Monday night at the LCD Soundsystem show and I was losing my mind.
	♥ 12:15pm Figgsrock: @EFD--HAHAHA, you know my love of 1981-1987 AOR well. Have you played this before and I've just missed it?
	♥ 12:16pm Tome: EFD in the Avo !<>! yea
	♥ 12:16pm Figgsrock: "Voices" was the Shazam song? I would have lost my mind before LCD too!
	♥ 12:17pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Zinininni
	♥ 12:17pm Figgsrock: I Shazam'ed it myself so I can look for it later.
	♥ 12:18pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Shazam is magic. OK, actually it's math but still...
	♥ 12:18pm tim from washington: This has aged surprisingly well! Even more surprisingly Prince isn't associated with this Prince like stomper.
	♥ 12:18pm efd: @Figgsrock I haven't even played the Russ Ballard original before! I'll have to rectify that at some point.
	12:21pm Morgan: oh my god i remember this holiday single
	12:21pm Morgan: i thought this was Martha and the Muffins for some reason
	♥ 12:22pm tim from washington: I thought this was Stan Ridgeway for some reason.
	♥ 12:22pm Figgsrock: @EFD--yes, you should! Also, there was a brief time where I thought "How can the band that did 'Another Girl, Another Planet' be the same band that did this 'Holiday' song?"
	12:22pm Morgan: tim is that him in the back?
	12:23pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: This Sly Fox sounds like Kate Bush.
	12:23pm Morgan: this kind of sounds like wall of voodoo after stan left
	♥ 12:25pm efd: @Figgsrock I admit I was looking for that Other Ones LP at home under "ONL" at first and couldn't figure out why it wasn't there.
	♥ 12:26pm Hoboken Jack: Huh, never knew this was Kiki Dee!
	♥ 12:26pm tim from washington: @Morgan - I was just going by the male vocals so I'm totally guessing here. Uh, Mr Funk! Mr Funk! The peanut gallery has a question about who the make vocalist is on the Other Ones song.
	♥ 12:27pm efd: @Hoboken Jack That's even more surprising than never seeing a skunk before!
	♥ 12:28pm efd: @tim et al. - the male vocalist is a member of The Other Ones, Alf Klimek.
	♥ 12:28pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Did know Kiki Dee's voice was so strong. I only remembered the other song which I will not say out loud because it will get stuck in my head all day.
	♥ 12:29pm Hoboken Jack: Hey EFD, Krys, Handy, a little warmer Bagpipe, PEEEEEEEEEEEEETE, all!
	12:31pm listener phillip (in the bronx): Wow! No fill in for cbristmas😱😱😱 a christmas of FUNK😱😱😱
	12:32pm Morgan: nicht Kanadian
	♥ 12:33pm Krys O.: Kiki was in a movie with the Small Faces called Dateline Diamonds in 1966.
	12:33pm TerrDE: @Woods , right , that awful EJ collaboration during his I can sell any shit I'm so popular period, set me against her
	♥ 12:33pm G: I thought I read somewhere that Elton J wanted Dusty Springfield for that "Don't Go Breakin My Heart" song, but she was unavailable, so Kiki Dee was the backup choice. And anything EJ touched in the early and mid 70s turned to gold, including Kiki Dee. I saw her open for EJ in my high school gym at the American School in London, in maybe early 1974.
	♥ 12:35pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @TerrDE: Yeah. I pretty much had only heard that song, though now I realize that I've heard this Kiki Dee Band track but didn't know it was her.
	12:36pm joseloalter: Oh, I went to tse LCD last night, and I did Shazam something early too, but it didn’t find the tune. Amazing sound. Amazing show.
	12:37pm TerrDE: was the Shazam the Sinbad or Shaq version ?
	♥ 12:37pm tim from washington: I'm a casual LCD fan too and also find them typically enjoyable. It's cool they're doing a Clash at Bonds type run.
	♥ 12:40pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, Pete, everyone.
	12:40pm mike osterhout: https://archive.videonale.org/videos/earthly-powers
	12:41pm Morgan: helloo handy

	♥ 12:46pm karlward: I saw LCD Soundsystem at Brooklyn Steel a few years ago, great show. In particular, Pat Mahoney (drums) is a joy to watch.
	♥ 12:46pm mrdonutsu: Teenage Queen and that new 22 minute Endless Boogie cut are the closest things to "heavy rotation" I've heard on FMU in a long time.
	♥ 12:48pm Handy Haversack: Been better, Mike. One of the kittens is in some crisis right now. Hoping for the best.
	♥ 12:49pm efd: oh gosh, best wishes for your kitten Handy!

	♥ 12:50pm tim from washington: @Handy - oh no! a for real crises or just cat drama? I hope the kitty is OK!
	♥ 12:52pm Handy Haversack: Thanks from me and K8 and Goblin (and all the rest!), efd, tim. We're monitoring right now and hoping to avoid emergency vet, ultrasound, possible surgery, but who knows. Next 24 hrs. hopefully see improvement.
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: I love this Mad Rollers!The singer sounds like Ozzy if he'd stayed in the pubs instead of stadiums.
	♥ 12:52pm tim from washington: Oh man, I've got my fingers crossed, Handy.
	♥ 12:53pm luka: good shout, tim. this sounds great.
	♥ 12:53pm prof.fuzz: Woot! Mad Rollers were our label mates for a while on Sister Raygun Records.
	12:55pm Morgan: aw handy. thats very stressful, I hope the kitten bounces back
	♥ 12:57pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Best wishes for the kitty! Mad Rollers are from Rome Italy.

	♥ 1:05pm Handy Haversack: You too, mndave! It's so nerve wracking. I know it, DjLorraine! efd, we made another convert to the Crystal Furs in our friend who came over for not-Thanksgiving dinner.
	1:07pm Joe B: welcome back efd!

	1:23pm Morgan: hi medson, your show is consistently 🔥
	♥ 1:24pm Figgsrock: EFD, when is the Doug interview again? I was in my kitchen and didn't hear the date.
	1:25pm Morgan: i always end up having to listen to the archive
	♥ 1:25pm Handy Haversack: I got my HS friends who would all go see the Connells together to all pick up the new album. Was trying to get them interested in the show, but, people with kids ... Next week, Figgsrock!
	♥ 1:26pm Figgsrock: Thanks Handy!
	♥ 1:26pm Fishtown Mike: FYI, the "guy" from the Pains of Being Pure at Heart is now fronting The Natvral. They opened up for Luna here in Philly, and I spent their whole set trying to figure out why the lead singer sounded so familiar.
	♥ 1:27pm efd: @Figgsrock next week!
	♥ 1:27pm medson: Hey Morgan, thank you appreciate it
	♥ 1:28pm medson: Cant wait for that interview
	♥ 1:29pm Handy Haversack: K8 and I will be at that show 1/8, too.
	♥ 1:30pm Hoboken Jack: Yeah Fishtown, he lives in Princeton now and is a super nice guy. Have been lucky to see The Natvral a bunch of times solo and in band format, ia rare instance of an indiepopper successfully reinventing themselves in a different genre!
	1:30pm Joe B: great connells song
	1:30pm Morgan: so great to hear people seeing live shows as they can. what a relief
	1:33pm Mike from Brooklyn: Hey Jack

	♥ 1:50pm tim from washington: Brooklyn Bridge?
	♥ 1:51pm efd: That's awesome, @Joe B!

	♥ 2:27pm efd: @Handy you must have!
	2:29pm ,Miss O'Phonia: This is painful
	♥ 2:30pm Handy Haversack: If I were smart and good at managing money, efd, I'd never listen to your show. Or medson's. Or Greg's. Or Dan Bodah. Or Joe and Todd. Or Joe. Or, really WFMU. And I definitely wouldn't have kittens.
	2:30pm Sybil: Wow, this song, EFD
