	12:27pm Van: stukas over disneyland is one of the best album covers ever
	12:36pm tim from washington: Hi efd and crew! I'm bummed I missed the Paybacks. Bring on the Payybacks revival, efd!
	12:38pm Miss G: listener phillip, I'm not trying to be scary, but, real: if this is your last day, then, listen to music and enjoy it. (of course, this is not your last day! you will be good! I believe it!) But, I am imagining someone on his last day, and he listened to music, and then BAM it was over. But, music, it _lives on_ even after him.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Soursob seems like it's gonna have to get picked up.
	12:43pm PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff EFD
	12:44pm HyperDose: @Handy If it's Olivia and efd approved, you know what needs to be done!
	12:47pm tim from washington: I dug the Soursob too. Hozac does not let you down.
	12:49pm Miss G: I'm so sorry and I'm so tired. But this is for anyone who has anxiety, it helps me a lot, from "London Road" " ah ha HA!" I sing that all time: www.youtube.com...
	12:52pm egould310: Des Demonas good band name.
	12:53pm Mister Dobalina: Clicky star fav material, if I've ever heard it before!
	12:57pm Andrew Hollywood: good old soursob
	12:58pm tim from washington: Do the Des Demonas have a member of Kid Congo's Pink Monkey Birds in it?
	12:59pm P-90: broadcasting from “Sauna A” today? Or “Sauna B”?
	1:00pm full_english_breakfast: heh i believe matt was also complaining about the temparature in the studio with the door closed yesterday
	1:00pm FletcherNYC: Background noise just sounds like something Fabio or Bryce would play
	1:01pm tim from washington: Speaking of heat, is "Snake" Davies going to make a cameo for a Budgie tribute?
	1:02pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, 126464, Handy, B.P. McDoggy, Jalapeño HyperDose, all! Whew this round the clock listening is wearing me out!!
	1:03pm Handy Haversack: Aye, Jack!
	1:03pm efd: @tim Unfortunately I am ill (i.e., not) prepared for a Budgie tribute. I meant to pull something yesterday and then forgot about it.
	1:04pm Hoboken Jack: Slight Bats feel to this Overlord single, nice!
	1:04pm efd: @Hoboken Jack you're gonna have to change your name to 24-Hour Jack!
	1:04pm efd: @tim I think you're onto something with thhat Kid Congo connection, that's ringing a distant bell.
	1:06pm Handy Haversack: efd, if you have a chance, new kitten pix are in my profile. They're little outlaws, they are!
	1:07pm listener 126464: Cheers Jack!
	1:08pm dale: hey now. this song reminds me of the good rats 'advertisement in the voice.'
	1:09pm listener 126464: Great comp
	1:09pm dale: oh man, i asked topt for the dickies this morning and missed it when you played them!
	1:10pm HyperDose: Afternoon, Jack!
	1:12pm efd: @dale Funny, I had that Dickies single with me yesterday morning but didn't get to it!
	1:12pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw The Dickies open for The Offspring. Dude made a comment about how he was so old that back in his day, Green Day were touring under their original name, The Ramones. Ha. Also, The Dickies were _way_ better then The Offspring.
	1:13pm Hoboken Jack: BeLUga
	1:15pm Mark Hurst: Wikipedia and Instagram in the same song!
	1:16pm efd: @Mark I should have tipped you off about this song!
	1:17pm efd: there was another song I heard recently that I thought might be good for Techtonic but now I can't remeber it. I'll let you know if I think of it again!
	1:17pm Mark Hurst: Thanks! If I play this one as an outtro I will give you full credit!
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: "Names, Tags, Numbers and Labels" was a fabulous tune from the Association. Excellent singers and a great arrangement.
	1:19pm tim from washington: Man, that Association song was great. As time goes by the more I love the 60s vocal pop groups.
	1:20pm Hoboken Jack: yessssss
	1:20pm Derek in Atlantic City: Bulbous Bouffant
	1:20pm Hoboken Jack: Mama!
	1:21pm Andrew Hollywood: sampling beluga
	1:21pm FletcherNYC: Mukluks
	1:23pm Hoboken Jack: Of the Overlord membership, only Tris McCall is a NJ resident.
	1:24pm efd: thanks Jack!
	1:25pm Sybil: Hi efd. These noon shows still seem like the middle of the night to me. Just wanted to say I got myy Ca v aller lp the other day and I am playing the h*** out of it.
	1:27pm dale: nice one!
	1:27pm efd: ooh, glad to hear that Sybil!
	1:27pm dale: haven't heard this in many years.
	1:27pm prudy: reminding me of Beantown...
	1:28pm tim from washington: J Geils!
	1:28pm egould310: High quality 1970’s music production on this J Geils tune. Nothing else quite sounds like this.
	1:29pm Sybil: J Geils always goes down smooth
	1:30pm Hoboken Pete: j.geils was so big growing up in CT. Were they as popular elsewhere (pre-Centerfold)?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: i thought this guy's Anus was the Center Hole?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: should have stayed in Connecticut
	1:31pm FletcherNYC: You get it @Derek
	1:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Peter Wolf has put out some pretty fine records post-Geils.
	1:31pm prudy: in Boston they were always big...
	1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @prudy: I saw them at UMaine (Freeze Frame tour). SO much fun!
	1:34pm prof.fuzz: Oh. This the red stains track is doing it for me!
	1:35pm prof.fuzz: @EFD: The bandcamp link for red stains is going to hits cielo nublado...
	1:36pm prudy: never saw them but their music was ever present in my adolescence around Boston...
	1:36pm efd: oh whoops! Thanks, I'll fix it in a moment.
	1:36pm winston legthigh: hi efd. this is really great. reminds me of esg drums.
	1:37pm efd: @prudy Agree, J. Geils Band was inescapable in the Boston area in the '70s (not that I was trying to escape them).
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: totally selfish and lazy on my part. i'm gonna buy the red stains single...without bothering to look up their bandcamp on my own!
	1:38pm egould310: Don’t tell anyone to smile. In fact everyone just leave everybody alone. Especially me.
	1:39pm efd: @prof.fuzz But by pointing it out you've paved the way for purchases by people less industrious than yourself!
	1:39pm DJ Guin: Peter Wolff does NOT get a pass for marrying Faye Dunaway...go fact check it..i can wait
	1:41pm Andrew Hollywood: more florry!
	1:43pm Hoboken Jack: I have just liked Florry on all the socials!
	1:45pm morphe': Why is J Geils so much airplay of late???
	1:46pm chris_in_space: Mike Lupica please return to the FMU airwaves!
	1:47pm morphe': mike Lupica = in all the FMU Record Fair flusters/chatoic moments ... ML was always so calm....
	1:50pm vinylmonkee: Ohhh! Nice Mario Hernandez project! (Kids on a Crime Spree)
	1:51pm listener 126464: Reflectors yeah!
	1:51pm efd: @vinylmonkee Yes, Mario is the best!
	1:53pm Figgsrock: Was just listening to the Toy (Box) before your show EFD.
	1:54pm Carmichael: What version is this? I have what I thought was the original Lower Third version.
	1:55pm Sybil: I miss David bowie. It all went bad then.
	1:55pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--its from the previously unreleased Toy album recorded in 2000 that was released as part of the Brilliant Adventures box set in Nov. and as a standalone set last Friday.
	1:56pm Carmichael: Guitarist is taking some liberties here. I prefer the poppy original ...
	1:56pm Sybil: This song is amazing tho
	1:57pm prudy: efd: you're from Dover/Weston? I grew up in Needham...
	1:57pm Sybil: The Funky Western Civilization
	1:58pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but TONIO K!! One of my favorite albums ever!
	1:58pm Sybil: EFD You are the best of the best
	1:58pm efd: @Figgsrock thank you for that concise explanation, I've been having a hard time untangling what that release is exactly!
	1:59pm Sybil: Jeanne D’arc veult dire une chose…
	1:59pm jim from wood ridge NJ: Wow what a song!!
	2:00pm Figgsrock: @efd--you're welcome!
	2:03pm Sybil: Tu peut emmerder le boulanger et avoir son pain Tu peut te tirer de les joux, tous, sauf un
	2:04pm DJ Guin: www.youtube.com...
	2:06pm Miss Georgia Peach: Mites
	2:07pm Cosmo in Seattle: Silverfish eat paper.
	2:07pm prof.fuzz: I don't think this Mad Rollers album is on bandcamp. They had a 7" on Sister Raygun Records in 2020, but I'm not finding that on bandcamp right now either. Hmmmm...
	2:07pm Sybil: * ton, pas son.
	2:08pm Sybil: I have a whole hour’s Playlist opening off Tonio K
	2:08pm ChukAmok: Hey, Kids on a Crime Spree are my good pals Mario, Becky, and Bill! Nice!
	2:08pm tim from washington: Hey prof.fuzz!
	2:09pm DJ Guin: Disintegration? it's a CURE LP
	2:09pm prof.fuzz: Hey Tim! Shameless pimping of another Italian band that I dig: Pre-Cog in the Bunker precoginthebunker.bandcamp.com...
	2:09pm Sybil: Tonio K will rock you, efd.
	2:11pm Figgsrock: @EFD--With that Bowie you basically just did what radio stations have been doing with my day job stuff for 26 years!
	2:11pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the reminder, prof.fuzz! Hollywood Horses! Dynamite!
	2:11pm Sybil: Anyone who can fake a quote from Joan of Arc deserves a second hearing. this
	2:12pm efd: @Figgsrock Nice, thank you for sharing with lowly WFMU! :)
	2:12pm prof.fuzz: Hey Handy!
	2:13pm DJ Guin: for a second there...thought this was Susanna Hoffs trying to keep her career going...nope. philadelphiaweekly.com...
	2:13pm efd: @prudy I grew up in the MetroWest area, as they started calling it after I left for college. Lived in Weston when I was little, then moved to a neighboring town.
	2:13pm Robm: After lurking on the comment board and reading them, I can’t believe how much knowledge i am reading, learn something new everyday
	2:15pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Robm: Welcome to MusicNerdCentral(tm)!
	2:16pm Robm: @Woods not only are the djs music geeks, so ate some of the chatter’s
	2:23pm DJ Guin: producers who put out this drivel should be sued for fraud and theft. Jon's Mom thinks he's "talented"
	2:23pm Handy Haversack: You'd mentioned Precog in the Bunker before, prof.fuzz, and I'd forgotten to wishlist it. Rectified! I also can't shake the idea that their name comes from a specific (terrible) Piers Anthony novel. I wasted my youth.
	2:23pm tim from washington: Who's this with the Vince Furnier/Alice Cooper growl?
	2:24pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Philip K. Dick's story “The Minority Report"
	2:24pm efd: @DJ Guin no one's forcing you to listen.
	2:26pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: WHEW!
	2:28pm DJ Guin: @efd - i will make note of that shade
	2:29pm DJ Guin: bye kids
	2:32pm Hoboken Jack: Symon spelled the cool Sixties way with a Y.
	2:34pm Qibote: :-) Today 'stumbled' upon 50 grs of old, but smelling great, outdoor weed. Just made butter from it. Soon it will be Cookies!
	2:35pm HyperDose: Later, Guin Don't forget the chocolate chips, Qibote!
	2:36pm Qibote: Don't get me wrong - it's anti Covid medicine! Nope - chocolate chunks will definitely go in
	2:36pm morphe': Handy : "(terrible) Piers Anthony" = poorly written or disturbing??? Never read .. did read most PK Dick ... There are 6-8 that are not SciFi that are oddly interesting ... slow moving psycho dramas...
	2:38pm Andrew Hollywood: I do recommend the Philadelphia Weekly interview that Brak posted.
	2:38pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty sure that another track from Allhallowtide was the first 2022 release played on WFMU in 2022. Stork Club on 1/2. Sounds great. morph: With Piers Anthony, it ends up being always both.
	2:39pm HyperDose: I knew I liked this Luxembourg Signal track from the intro alone. Gorgeous.
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: Andrew Hollywood: opened in a new tab so it will be ready for me when I can finally stop working and pour a damn drink!
	2:40pm morphe': PK Dick " Between 1952-1960 Dick wrote nine literary novels hoping to be accepted as a mainstream writer, a during the 1950s he struggled to pay bills by selling science fiction short stories to the dying pulp magazine market. Between 1955-1960 he published eight science fiction novels, and all but one went to Ace Books, a low rent paperback publisher. His one hardback success during that time, Time Out of Joint, was published in 1959 by Lippincott, and it is a science fiction story that leans towards the literary. I imagined that made him very happy." https://www.sfsignal.com/archives/2015/12/the-literary-novels-of-philip-k-dick/
	2:40pm winston legthigh: the jon symon 7" is going for $17.49 on ebay.
	2:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is Mark E. Smith's cranky nephew
	2:43pm tim from washington: I love the PK Dick non-SF novels. Total bummer vibes. He captures anger, paranoia and desperation so well.
	2:45pm morphe': Not unlike PK Dick: John Sayles made crap films to finance his heartfelt projects: Pirahanna (original) AlliGator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_(1978_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alligator_(film)
	2:46pm Andrew Hollywood: Handy, I always recommend pouring a drink.
	2:48pm morphe': Tim WA - the news reports/articles and details of Dick's paranoia are striking...
	2:48pm winston legthigh: good advice andrew hollywood. handy!
	2:49pm Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Evan!
	2:49pm Handy Haversack: winston! Wooo, this set is on fire, efd!
	2:49pm morphe': LAURICE !!!!!!!
	2:50pm winston legthigh: is this roger daltrey?
	2:50pm ChukAmok: @Andrew Hollywood Are you of any relation to Luke Hollywood, formerly of the New Bad Things?
	2:50pm Hoboken Jack: Don't know Laurice but this is a great voice!
	2:52pm morphe': HBO J - Laurice arrived I guess in the FMU in box and came and did a live Record Fair ... I thought he was UK but I think he is Canada...
	2:52pm Andrew Hollywood: @ChukAmok Sadly, Luke Hollywood and I are so estranged that we are not even related or have ever met in the first place.
	2:53pm morphe': HOBO JACK - that was spellCrap - no disrespect !!!
	2:53pm Hoboken Jack: Thanks morf!
	2:53pm Hoboken Jack: Haha no worries, I watch a lot of Home Box
	2:54pm radioronan: Excellent show today Evan..Thanks..and thanks for fill in show yesterday morn'!
	2:54pm vinylmonkee: Thanks EFD!
	2:55pm dale: hobo jack - here's one of his best. www.youtube.com...
	2:55pm Handy Haversack: This went too damn fast. Thanks, efd! Great stuff! Take it easy, everyone. But take it!
	2:55pm Stephen O: Thank you, EFD! Viva Laurice!
	2:56pm Hoboken Jack: Interesting to see the players on the Donovan's Brain albums, as I felt a bit of Stamey. Thanks EFD for all the great new stuff this week!!
	2:56pm pollypinocle: fun show, Evan! Thanks as always!
	2:56pm morphe': Thanks Evan and all !!!!!
	2:57pm listener 126464: Thanks efd!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from January 12, 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. Nov 6th, Noon - 3pm: The Metal District III: Kicked Out Of The Hellraiser! (More info...)
EFD’s hair-metal-loving cousin Evan “Snake” Davies was dying to return to the airwaves in October after a four-year absence. However, this request was vetoed over concerns that his appearance might have had a deleterious effect on our Hellraiser efforts. He’s back today, though, spinning his favorite ‘80s (mostly) hard rock and hair metal just for you. Don’t (or maybe do) miss it!

January 12, 2022: fewer hits, more new music!

	12:38pm Miss G: listener phillip, I'm not trying to be scary, but, real: if this is your last day, then, listen to music and enjoy it. (of course, this is not your last day! you will be good! I believe it!) But, I am imagining someone on his last day, and he listened to music, and then BAM it was over. But, music, it _lives on_ even after him.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Soursob seems like it's gonna have to get picked up.
	12:43pm PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff EFD
	12:44pm HyperDose: @Handy If it's Olivia and efd approved, you know what needs to be done!
	12:47pm tim from washington: I dug the Soursob too. Hozac does not let you down.
	12:49pm Miss G: I'm so sorry and I'm so tired. But this is for anyone who has anxiety, it helps me a lot, from "London Road" " ah ha HA!" I sing that all time: www.youtube.com...

	1:00pm FletcherNYC: Background noise just sounds like something Fabio or Bryce would play
	1:01pm tim from washington: Speaking of heat, is "Snake" Davies going to make a cameo for a Budgie tribute?
	1:02pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, 126464, Handy, B.P. McDoggy, Jalapeño HyperDose, all! Whew this round the clock listening is wearing me out!!
	1:03pm Handy Haversack: Aye, Jack!
	1:03pm efd: @tim Unfortunately I am ill (i.e., not) prepared for a Budgie tribute. I meant to pull something yesterday and then forgot about it.
	1:04pm Hoboken Jack: Slight Bats feel to this Overlord single, nice!
	1:04pm efd: @Hoboken Jack you're gonna have to change your name to 24-Hour Jack!
	1:04pm efd: @tim I think you're onto something with thhat Kid Congo connection, that's ringing a distant bell.
	1:06pm Handy Haversack: efd, if you have a chance, new kitten pix are in my profile. They're little outlaws, they are!
	1:07pm listener 126464: Cheers Jack!
	1:08pm dale: hey now. this song reminds me of the good rats 'advertisement in the voice.'
	1:09pm listener 126464: Great comp
	1:09pm dale: oh man, i asked topt for the dickies this morning and missed it when you played them!
	1:10pm HyperDose: Afternoon, Jack!
	1:12pm efd: @dale Funny, I had that Dickies single with me yesterday morning but didn't get to it!
	1:12pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw The Dickies open for The Offspring. Dude made a comment about how he was so old that back in his day, Green Day were touring under their original name, The Ramones. Ha. Also, The Dickies were _way_ better then The Offspring.
	1:13pm Hoboken Jack: BeLUga
	1:15pm Mark Hurst: Wikipedia and Instagram in the same song!
	1:16pm efd: @Mark I should have tipped you off about this song!
	1:17pm efd: there was another song I heard recently that I thought might be good for Techtonic but now I can't remeber it. I'll let you know if I think of it again!
	1:17pm Mark Hurst: Thanks! If I play this one as an outtro I will give you full credit!
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: "Names, Tags, Numbers and Labels" was a fabulous tune from the Association. Excellent singers and a great arrangement.
	1:19pm tim from washington: Man, that Association song was great. As time goes by the more I love the 60s vocal pop groups.
	1:20pm Hoboken Jack: yessssss
	1:20pm Derek in Atlantic City: Bulbous Bouffant
	1:20pm Hoboken Jack: Mama!
	1:21pm Andrew Hollywood: sampling beluga

	1:25pm Sybil: Hi efd. These noon shows still seem like the middle of the night to me. Just wanted to say I got myy Ca v aller lp the other day and I am playing the h*** out of it.
	1:27pm dale: nice one!
	1:27pm efd: ooh, glad to hear that Sybil!
	1:27pm dale: haven't heard this in many years.
	1:27pm prudy: reminding me of Beantown...
	1:28pm tim from washington: J Geils!
	1:28pm egould310: High quality 1970’s music production on this J Geils tune. Nothing else quite sounds like this.
	1:29pm Sybil: J Geils always goes down smooth
	1:30pm Hoboken Pete: j.geils was so big growing up in CT. Were they as popular elsewhere (pre-Centerfold)?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: i thought this guy's Anus was the Center Hole?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: should have stayed in Connecticut
	1:31pm FletcherNYC: You get it @Derek
	1:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Peter Wolf has put out some pretty fine records post-Geils.
	1:31pm prudy: in Boston they were always big...
	1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @prudy: I saw them at UMaine (Freeze Frame tour). SO much fun!
	1:34pm prof.fuzz: Oh. This the red stains track is doing it for me!
	1:35pm prof.fuzz: @EFD: The bandcamp link for red stains is going to hits cielo nublado...
	1:36pm prudy: never saw them but their music was ever present in my adolescence around Boston...
	1:36pm efd: oh whoops! Thanks, I'll fix it in a moment.
	1:36pm winston legthigh: hi efd. this is really great. reminds me of esg drums.
	1:37pm efd: @prudy Agree, J. Geils Band was inescapable in the Boston area in the '70s (not that I was trying to escape them).
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: totally selfish and lazy on my part. i'm gonna buy the red stains single...without bothering to look up their bandcamp on my own!
	1:38pm egould310: Don’t tell anyone to smile. In fact everyone just leave everybody alone. Especially me.
	1:39pm efd: @prof.fuzz But by pointing it out you've paved the way for purchases by people less industrious than yourself!
	1:39pm DJ Guin: Peter Wolff does NOT get a pass for marrying Faye Dunaway...go fact check it..i can wait
	1:41pm Andrew Hollywood: more florry!
	1:43pm Hoboken Jack: I have just liked Florry on all the socials!
	1:45pm morphe': Why is J Geils so much airplay of late???
	1:46pm chris_in_space: Mike Lupica please return to the FMU airwaves!
	1:47pm morphe': mike Lupica = in all the FMU Record Fair flusters/chatoic moments ... ML was always so calm....
	1:50pm vinylmonkee: Ohhh! Nice Mario Hernandez project! (Kids on a Crime Spree)
	1:51pm listener 126464: Reflectors yeah!
	1:51pm efd: @vinylmonkee Yes, Mario is the best!
	1:53pm Figgsrock: Was just listening to the Toy (Box) before your show EFD.
	1:54pm Carmichael: What version is this? I have what I thought was the original Lower Third version.
	1:55pm Sybil: I miss David bowie. It all went bad then.
	1:55pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--its from the previously unreleased Toy album recorded in 2000 that was released as part of the Brilliant Adventures box set in Nov. and as a standalone set last Friday.
	1:56pm Carmichael: Guitarist is taking some liberties here. I prefer the poppy original ...
	1:56pm Sybil: This song is amazing tho
	1:57pm prudy: efd: you're from Dover/Weston? I grew up in Needham...
	1:57pm Sybil: The Funky Western Civilization
	1:58pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but TONIO K!! One of my favorite albums ever!
	1:58pm Sybil: EFD You are the best of the best
	1:58pm efd: @Figgsrock thank you for that concise explanation, I've been having a hard time untangling what that release is exactly!
	1:59pm Sybil: Jeanne D’arc veult dire une chose…
	1:59pm jim from wood ridge NJ: Wow what a song!!
	2:00pm Figgsrock: @efd--you're welcome!
	2:03pm Sybil: Tu peut emmerder le boulanger et avoir son pain Tu peut te tirer de les joux, tous, sauf un
	2:04pm DJ Guin: www.youtube.com...
	2:06pm Miss Georgia Peach: Mites
	2:07pm Cosmo in Seattle: Silverfish eat paper.
	2:07pm prof.fuzz: I don't think this Mad Rollers album is on bandcamp. They had a 7" on Sister Raygun Records in 2020, but I'm not finding that on bandcamp right now either. Hmmmm...
	2:07pm Sybil: * ton, pas son.
	2:08pm Sybil: I have a whole hour’s Playlist opening off Tonio K
	2:08pm ChukAmok: Hey, Kids on a Crime Spree are my good pals Mario, Becky, and Bill! Nice!
	2:08pm tim from washington: Hey prof.fuzz!
	2:09pm DJ Guin: Disintegration? it's a CURE LP
	2:09pm prof.fuzz: Hey Tim! Shameless pimping of another Italian band that I dig: Pre-Cog in the Bunker precoginthebunker.bandcamp.com...
	2:09pm Sybil: Tonio K will rock you, efd.
	2:11pm Figgsrock: @EFD--With that Bowie you basically just did what radio stations have been doing with my day job stuff for 26 years!
	2:11pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the reminder, prof.fuzz! Hollywood Horses! Dynamite!
	2:11pm Sybil: Anyone who can fake a quote from Joan of Arc deserves a second hearing. this
	2:12pm efd: @Figgsrock Nice, thank you for sharing with lowly WFMU! :)
	2:12pm prof.fuzz: Hey Handy!
	2:13pm DJ Guin: for a second there...thought this was Susanna Hoffs trying to keep her career going...nope. philadelphiaweekly.com...
	2:13pm efd: @prudy I grew up in the MetroWest area, as they started calling it after I left for college. Lived in Weston when I was little, then moved to a neighboring town.
	2:13pm Robm: After lurking on the comment board and reading them, I can’t believe how much knowledge i am reading, learn something new everyday
	2:15pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Robm: Welcome to MusicNerdCentral(tm)!
	2:16pm Robm: @Woods not only are the djs music geeks, so ate some of the chatter’s
	2:23pm DJ Guin: producers who put out this drivel should be sued for fraud and theft. Jon's Mom thinks he's "talented"
	2:23pm Handy Haversack: You'd mentioned Precog in the Bunker before, prof.fuzz, and I'd forgotten to wishlist it. Rectified! I also can't shake the idea that their name comes from a specific (terrible) Piers Anthony novel. I wasted my youth.
	2:23pm tim from washington: Who's this with the Vince Furnier/Alice Cooper growl?
	2:24pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Philip K. Dick's story “The Minority Report"
	2:24pm efd: @DJ Guin no one's forcing you to listen.
	2:26pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: WHEW!
	2:28pm DJ Guin: @efd - i will make note of that shade
	2:29pm DJ Guin: bye kids
	2:32pm Hoboken Jack: Symon spelled the cool Sixties way with a Y.
	2:34pm Qibote: :-) Today 'stumbled' upon 50 grs of old, but smelling great, outdoor weed. Just made butter from it. Soon it will be Cookies!
	2:35pm HyperDose: Later, Guin Don't forget the chocolate chips, Qibote!
	2:36pm Qibote: Don't get me wrong - it's anti Covid medicine! Nope - chocolate chunks will definitely go in
	2:36pm morphe': Handy : "(terrible) Piers Anthony" = poorly written or disturbing??? Never read .. did read most PK Dick ... There are 6-8 that are not SciFi that are oddly interesting ... slow moving psycho dramas...
	2:38pm Andrew Hollywood: I do recommend the Philadelphia Weekly interview that Brak posted.
	2:38pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty sure that another track from Allhallowtide was the first 2022 release played on WFMU in 2022. Stork Club on 1/2. Sounds great. morph: With Piers Anthony, it ends up being always both.
	2:39pm HyperDose: I knew I liked this Luxembourg Signal track from the intro alone. Gorgeous.
	2:39pm Handy Haversack: Andrew Hollywood: opened in a new tab so it will be ready for me when I can finally stop working and pour a damn drink!
	2:40pm morphe': PK Dick " Between 1952-1960 Dick wrote nine literary novels hoping to be accepted as a mainstream writer, a during the 1950s he struggled to pay bills by selling science fiction short stories to the dying pulp magazine market. Between 1955-1960 he published eight science fiction novels, and all but one went to Ace Books, a low rent paperback publisher. His one hardback success during that time, Time Out of Joint, was published in 1959 by Lippincott, and it is a science fiction story that leans towards the literary. I imagined that made him very happy." https://www.sfsignal.com/archives/2015/12/the-literary-novels-of-philip-k-dick/
	2:40pm winston legthigh: the jon symon 7" is going for $17.49 on ebay.
	2:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is Mark E. Smith's cranky nephew
	2:43pm tim from washington: I love the PK Dick non-SF novels. Total bummer vibes. He captures anger, paranoia and desperation so well.
	2:45pm morphe': Not unlike PK Dick: John Sayles made crap films to finance his heartfelt projects: Pirahanna (original) AlliGator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_(1978_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alligator_(film)
	2:46pm Andrew Hollywood: Handy, I always recommend pouring a drink.
	2:48pm morphe': Tim WA - the news reports/articles and details of Dick's paranoia are striking...
	2:48pm winston legthigh: good advice andrew hollywood. handy!
	2:49pm Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Evan!
	2:49pm Handy Haversack: winston! Wooo, this set is on fire, efd!

	2:50pm winston legthigh: is this roger daltrey?
	2:50pm ChukAmok: @Andrew Hollywood Are you of any relation to Luke Hollywood, formerly of the New Bad Things?
	2:50pm Hoboken Jack: Don't know Laurice but this is a great voice!
	2:52pm morphe': HBO J - Laurice arrived I guess in the FMU in box and came and did a live Record Fair ... I thought he was UK but I think he is Canada...
	2:52pm Andrew Hollywood: @ChukAmok Sadly, Luke Hollywood and I are so estranged that we are not even related or have ever met in the first place.
	2:53pm morphe': HOBO JACK - that was spellCrap - no disrespect !!!

	2:55pm Stephen O: Thank you, EFD! Viva Laurice!
	2:56pm Hoboken Jack: Interesting to see the players on the Donovan's Brain albums, as I felt a bit of Stamey. Thanks EFD for all the great new stuff this week!!
