  9:04pm
David B (chudleycannons):

Completely misread Evan's tweets earlier today and thought this was going to be an all holiday music episode. :P
  9:06pm
efd:

  9:08pm

Not to confuse the boards with David B above, I am a separate entity!


GOOD EVENING FUNK FANS!
  9:20pm
efd:

Hi Dave, and Hi Van! Both of you are critical to the spellings of my first and last names.
  9:23pm
Van in Dallas:

Oh, I'm not critical for anyone, I just wanted to see what might come out any album reshuffling that might or might not have recently happened. :)
  9:24pm
Dave B:

I stomped the comp at local pub trivia, took my winnings and spun GFR's "Rubberneck" as my exit music on the juke!

Hello to Richard, David B and the rest of the crew.

Its a Grand Funky night all around!
  9:24pm
Dave B:

and to you, efd!
  9:25pm
12539:

The ideal copy makes me happy.
  9:25pm
Jaysin:

Yo Van. Good to see another Dallasite listening to radio from the noreast. Buy you a drink at Vickery Park next time I'm in town(I now live in Jersey)
  9:27pm
Van in Dallas:

Sounds good Jaysin :)
  9:28pm
Jaysin:

Go Mavs. Now that the season is back on.
  9:31pm
Van in Dallas:

Yes indeed, go Mavs :)
  9:31pm
Jaysin:

Yeah winter!
  9:31pm
Julie:

tree lighting? there was a tree lighting?
  9:32pm
G:

That's exactly what the Prez said :-)
  9:32pm
Jaysin:

Edgar Winter.
  9:34pm
Van in Dallas:

So...the "new" column there on the right...must be new to YOU Evan? Like, a new acquisition? Never noticed but is that the same for all WFMU DJ's? I thought they were, like, "new" :)
  9:34pm
Dave B:

Shelley Winters!
  9:35pm
13 Women:

[batting all 26 sets of eyelashes, like a row of Rockettes kickdancing]
  9:36pm
Dave B:

I think it was Monsieur SLaP who once told me "Nothing exceeds like excess"
  9:36pm
Julie:

I excessize every day
  9:37pm
Jaysin:

@Dave B: What did the hand say to the face?
  9:38pm
Dave B:

UNITY!
  9:39pm
Jaysin:

How about...
  9:40pm
Jaysin:

SLAP!!!
  9:41pm
Jack McGuire:

Will never forget watching a somewhat pickled Andrea True forget the lyrics to "More,More, More" as she lip synched before a perplexed Mike Douglas as a wee bairn in Philly.
  9:44pm
efd:

@Jack, wow, that must have been an awkward moment for all involved!

@Dave B that definitely sounds like a SLaPware motto.
  9:44pm
Julie:

ahhh Mike Douglas..them were the days.
  9:45pm
Van in Dallas:

Soon to leave Dallas...could go to DC, Southern Cal, NC, ATL, several other places, but thinking Thailand...they have internet for WFMU, right....? :)
  9:46pm
Dave B:

"note to self - send efd a copy of the Flo-Ness* mini documentary"

*he rules the Central Park roller disco, and during the warm months readies his pimpcycle right down the road from me...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZJPfh8dys8
  9:47pm
Nashville Noah:

I have some GREAT records picked out for tonight!!
  9:47pm
Jack McGuire:

I'm sure Mr. Douglas saved the day by performing some far more cringeworthy song, ala eric estrada at the conclusion of the punk rock episode of Chips.
  9:48pm
Julie:

Stop playing disco me no can dance
  9:48pm
Julie:

@Noah is it true you'll be in drag for tonight's show?
  9:49pm
efd:

Hey Noah! Do tell!

@Julie just one or two more songs and then you shall be tempted no further.
  9:49pm
Julie:

Punk rock ep of chips? Really? And no one told me this treasure exists??
  9:50pm
Nashville Noah:

opppss, wait, I'm not there..... darn! oh yea Julie, I'll be pretending Im Mary Wing tonight!
  9:50pm
Dave B:

The punk rock episode of Quincy M.E. was better
  9:51pm
Nashville Noah:

Mary Wingin' it! New rap slang!

HI HI EVAN!
  9:51pm
Julie:

@Noah I pretended to be Mary Wing a couple weeks ago, it was AWESOME
  9:52pm
Jack McGuire:

@julie. Yes. It's exquisite. The band is called Pain. Their hit is "I Need Pain."
  9:52pm
efd:

I'm totally stealing "Mary Winging it" tonight.
  9:53pm
Julie:

@Jack nothing beats the Scum of the Earth for fake TV bands
  9:54pm
Nashville Noah:

Feel free to keep using it, but please give credit where it's due... or at least say "Gee listeners, don't you think Noah should still be doing his show?"
  9:55pm
Dave B:

Can you play Wing "Dancing Queen"?
  9:56pm
Van in Dallas:

What would make this a complete perfect evening is The Only Song. Or so I've learned from somewhere recently.
  9:56pm
efd:

man, this single sure sounds a million times better than that LP!
  9:56pm
efd:

@Dave B: No.
  9:57pm
Julie:

Oh mannn...more dance songs. was this hers originally? Can't believe I never knew her name
  9:57pm
Julie:

I stole a phrase from Therese.."JM in the AM on the FM." I love it.
  9:57pm
efd:

Yep, this is her big smash hit!
  9:58pm
Dave B:

buddah set! intended or not - SOLID GOLD!
  9:58pm
issac from Tijuana:

great disco stuff :D .... "More, More, More" always reminds me of The Simpsons Disco Stu character
  9:58pm
Julie:

Know it well, never knew her name. Very sad
  9:59pm
slugluv1313:

more, more, more . . . COWBELL!!!!!!! :)
  9:59pm
john:

This is absolutely one of the half dozen best Andrea True tributes I've ever heard!!
  9:59pm
E.L.:

More More More!
  9:59pm
Julie:

MORE MORE MORE! and next, something from Pink Floyd's More
  10:00pm
moose:

  10:00pm
George of Troy:

Never knew there was a part two. Thanks efd!
  10:00pm
Stevel:

Where did my hatred of disco go? I almost miss it. (The hate, of course.)
  10:01pm
Frank:

RIP Andrea True...she starred in the very first porn film I ever saw...
  10:01pm
E.L.:

Julie went all caps. I got trumped.
  10:01pm
Dave B:

is she using that in the context of an adverb or an adjective?
  10:01pm
James Brown:

They's aways a Part Two. Some dudes throw it out. Whack.
  10:01pm
Julie:

If you are Trumped, you have to wear the bad hair
  10:02pm
Andres:

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

RIP Andrea True

Thanks for this wonderful tribute.

The night I heard the news I literally played this song over and over for a couple of hours. It just gets better. Glad to see this song is so loved.
  10:02pm
monica:

nice trib, efd! got anything from war machine?
  10:03pm
Jaysin:

Part deuce: Traci Lords. As DJ
  10:03pm
issac from Tijuana:

holy sh1t Andrea was hot ....
  10:04pm
E.L.:

Fair enough.
  10:04pm

Tom ( The Bactrian Support Network ):

like some of those early disco tunes ( though at the time in my teen years wearing a Grank Funk or Yes shirt would not admit it of cause ) but once like '78 rolled around ie.. Rod "Do you think I'm sexy" I knew its days were outnumbered .... like George Clinton always said, "Disco is like making love with just one stroke ... "
  10:04pm
Jack McGuire:

This is Beethoven compared to Steal My Sunshine. Theiving bastards.
  10:04pm
efd:

@Monica, I wish! I don't even have the first album.

I can't believe this song wasn't sampled more.
  10:04pm
Van in Dallas:

wfmu. always something unexpected coming your way. DON'T EVER STOP.
  10:05pm
slugluv1313:

ditto @ Stevel . . . although remembering pop radio in the 1970s, i think i grew to hate disco b/c that is ALL you heard, ALL the time

RIP Ms. True -- and thank you Evan, for an excellent tribute!
  10:05pm
Dave B:

I can't believe this song wasn't sampled more, more, more!
  10:06pm
Jaysin:

And her skills could be described as thus: shoes in a dryer
  10:08pm
moose:

has anybody heard this?
"In 1980, True recorded a punk-rock album, War Machine, which was never released in the States."
  10:08pm
PMW:

Did everyone see the 11/3 NYT book review of James Wolcott's memior, the piece titled "Starting Out in the 70's"?
  10:08pm
Ajax:

Love the show! EFD 4 LIFE!
  10:08pm
Jack McGuire:

Whither Bionic Boogie?
  10:09pm
David B (chudleycannons):

Had no idea who sang the song before tonight, or the story about Jamaica (or that she was a porn actress)!
  10:09pm
Artanker:

so good so good
  10:09pm
PB:

What? Sly Dunbar didn't play drums on More More More. I always thought he played drums on just about every track ever recorded in Jamaica.
  10:11pm
Van in Dallas:

There's just THREE parts of the day I listen to WFMU: Day, Night, and...um...day....night...um...yeah...I can't...oops.
  10:11pm
Kewl Bands:

We hated math class.
  10:15pm
Stevel:

My punk-rock inner child is now forgiving me for lingering under the disco ball, thanks to this set.
  10:16pm
efd:

oh, Van - to answer your question about the 'new' designation, personally I use it to identify a new release, or at least a release that's new to WFMU and in the station's new bin.
  10:17pm
efd:

although I also use it to identify my own records/CDs if it's something new, but not if it's an old record that I recently picked up.
  10:19pm
G:

This set = Punk purges disco, in the great genre battle of the later 70s...
  10:19pm
Jaysin:

Comments kinda dried up after the pornstar finished. I guess everyone is spent
  10:19pm
Van in Dallas:

Makes sense to me now, thanks :)
  10:20pm
G:

@Jaysin: They petered out??
  10:21pm
Dave B:

White Sox/Tigers 1979
  10:21pm
Jaysin:

They're bushed.
  10:23pm
Van in Dallas:

I think everyone went to play, what is it called? Skyrim or something?
  10:23pm
Dave B:

@Jaysin - she was bushed too...

  10:36pm
Noah from Nashville:

Evan, I think I'm hearing a new goodie I want, dig these Druids...
  10:38pm
Mom and Dad:

That's nice, dear. Mow the lawn this afternoon, and don't miss that spot by the tree.
  10:39pm
efd:

  10:50pm
issac from Tijuana:

great frickin show .....
  10:50pm
Holly in NC:

I like La Font. Very 'college radio', which I mean in a good mid 80s way. Though it's really more early 90s 'indie rock'. Though it's new. Never mind!
  10:51pm
Marmalade Kitty:
