	9:54pm jack: I wish I had some egg nog yummy
	9:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Oh my god, this background is UNLOOKATABLE!
	9:56pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): But the music is funkin' great.
	9:57pm jack: Hey Merry Christmas Guys lol
	9:59pm Holly in NC: Swingin' Neckbreakers get a clicky star, always.
	10:00pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Favorite sleigh bells effect: once I was running in one of those ridiculous "jingle bell" races they love to have in December, where everyone has bells on creating a crazy bells-invasion sound, and listening to a repeating loop of "Marquee Moon" on the earbuds. Every time it got to that pause in the song, there was a rhythmic, pulsating "jingjingjing." Now when I hear the song it feels like it's missing that part.
	10:00pm john: Not breaking my lifelong embargo on anything that smacks of a request, but the greedies and/or reducers would make this a merry jingle indeed.
	10:07pm fleep: Decorations in department stores the day after Labor Day is early. This is right on time.
	10:08pm Holly in NC: @Pete from Boston (&NJ) - that is a great story. "Marquee Moon" is my primary ringtone, and I would love for it to have bells added!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: WFMU Christmas specials are the best!
	10:09pm Uncle Michael: Aaaaaach! Snow!
	10:10pm Holly in NC: @efd - great Don Cornelius :-)
	10:12pm efd: if you thought that was good you should hear Gaylord do it!
	10:12pm Uncle Michael: I can't hit that note anymore.
	10:13pm john: If it's an 80s style very special episode, shouldn't Ted McGinley be on backing vox?
	10:14pm efd: who says he isn't?
	10:15pm V Priceless: I think 'sleigh ride' is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.
	10:16pm Holly in NC: @V Priceless - agree.
	10:17pm Danne D: Yay EFD :) Hi everyone :) Hi Holly :)
	10:18pm john: Well, Evan, wouldn't the rest of the record have to suck and the band have to be way past its prime to bring Ted in to finish them off?
	10:18pm Holly in NC: Hi Danne! :-)
	10:19pm efd: dammit, john, you got me again!
	10:20pm jon: hi danne d
	10:21pm john: It's why I'm here.
	10:25pm Hugh C: Evan, Great show tonite! Do you have Irwin's Santa Claus is Coming, in your repertoire? Or Phil Spector's xmas album?
	10:30pm jack: MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:31pm efd: thanks Hugh! I'll try to get to one of those - thanks for listening!
	10:31pm john: Woo.
	10:33pm Carmichael: Hi Evan. I don't see any Bob Dylan on your list!?
	10:33pm Uncle Michael: I hear Phil Lynott.
	10:34pm Carmichael: Me tio, UM.
	10:34pm Stevel: Retiring to a non-commenting position. Best of holidays to all. Wednesday nights are always a bit of a holiday for me. Thanks, efd!
	10:34pm efd: Yes you do, UM! No you don't, Carmichael!
	10:35pm Carmichael: too
	10:36pm Carmichael: He he ... Just checking.
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: He meant "Me too, Tio Miguel."
	10:38pm Holly in NC: If not played by @efd, will have to watch "The Year Without a Santa Claus" later so can get my Snow/Heat Miser fix for the year. ooh, Future Wife!
	10:41pm Kat in Chicago: That's a fine ode to bachelorette Christmas right there.
	10:42pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Just tabbed back over to the page and the seizures started again.
	10:43pm efd: Sorry Pete! See you again next hour.
	10:44pm Carmichael: My daughter has a Spanish final tomorrow, UM. Should be a breeze, as we all are required to understand it here.
	10:45pm Uncle Michael: buena suerte to her!
	10:45pm Holly in NC: @Kat - Did you see that Colin Stetson is the sax player for Future Wife? Also the "dirty"version is better imho :-)
	10:46pm Carmichael: Vince Gualardi take on American Woman.
	10:47pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I went to college in Mass. with a Mike Giblin. We told me I had to listen to Quadrophenia stoned to know the REAL me. What you up to, Gibby?

	10:51pm coelacanth: greetings elven funk davies, and helpers. i like the snow.
	10:51pm john: Steve Jones, Paul Cook, Brian Downey, Scott Gorham and Philip Lynott on the record. The ultimate Lizzy/Pistols mashup.
	10:51pm Kat in Chicago: @Holly - This is the first I've ever heard of Future Wife. Colin Stetson? Dang. Will investigate further.
	10:53pm Kat in Chicago: Oh, look, a handy link to Future Wife :)
	10:54pm Carmichael: Kind of Bowie ish!
	10:57pm redkayak: I like this one :)
	10:59pm Carmichael: Yes! Martin Newell!!!!
	10:59pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Second Limiñanas track I've heard in a week, after one on WMBR recently.
	11:01pm redkayak: ....and I like the e-snow. Very festive!
	11:03pm Holly in NC: xoxoxox Big Star
	11:05pm kevin g: Will probably put this very show on tomorrow while I send out mailorders for the holiday season. Perfect soundtrack!
	11:07pm Carmichael: I would bet this guy's playing a Fender Jaguar. Just sounds like it.
	11:12pm EL: Home!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from December 17, 2014

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!

December 17, 2014: the 7½th Annual Holiday Music Funktacular!

	9:53pm efd: glad you're enjoying it jack! Putting that on the wishlist, Tome - I'll try!
	9:53pm Stevel: If only! Working off a pre-Xmas bug. I fear I will live.
	9:54pm Holly in NC: LOVE sleigh bells so much. Top 3: Boston Pops' "Sleigh Ride" Stooges"I Wanna be Your Dog" Easy E " Neighborhood Sniper" Doubt any of above will be played tonight ;-) @efd This flute is SOOOOOOOO good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	9:54pm jack: I wish I had some egg nog yummy
	9:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Oh my god, this background is UNLOOKATABLE!
	9:56pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): But the music is funkin' great.
	9:57pm jack: Hey Merry Christmas Guys lol
	9:59pm Holly in NC: Swingin' Neckbreakers get a clicky star, always.
	10:00pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Favorite sleigh bells effect: once I was running in one of those ridiculous "jingle bell" races they love to have in December, where everyone has bells on creating a crazy bells-invasion sound, and listening to a repeating loop of "Marquee Moon" on the earbuds. Every time it got to that pause in the song, there was a rhythmic, pulsating "jingjingjing." Now when I hear the song it feels like it's missing that part.
	10:00pm john: Not breaking my lifelong embargo on anything that smacks of a request, but the greedies and/or reducers would make this a merry jingle indeed.
	10:07pm fleep: Decorations in department stores the day after Labor Day is early. This is right on time.
	10:08pm Holly in NC: @Pete from Boston (&NJ) - that is a great story. "Marquee Moon" is my primary ringtone, and I would love for it to have bells added!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: WFMU Christmas specials are the best!
	10:09pm Uncle Michael: Aaaaaach! Snow!
	10:10pm Holly in NC: @efd - great Don Cornelius :-)

	10:12pm Uncle Michael: I can't hit that note anymore.
	10:13pm john: If it's an 80s style very special episode, shouldn't Ted McGinley be on backing vox?
	10:14pm efd: who says he isn't?
	10:15pm V Priceless: I think 'sleigh ride' is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.
	10:16pm Holly in NC: @V Priceless - agree.
	10:17pm Danne D: Yay EFD :) Hi everyone :) Hi Holly :)
	10:18pm john: Well, Evan, wouldn't the rest of the record have to suck and the band have to be way past its prime to bring Ted in to finish them off?
	10:18pm Holly in NC: Hi Danne! :-)
	10:19pm efd: dammit, john, you got me again!

	10:42pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Just tabbed back over to the page and the seizures started again.
	10:43pm efd: Sorry Pete! See you again next hour.
