	♥ 11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Only by WFMU have I heard that early Live Queen they just put out. HolySmokes! Pheenomenal.
	11:13pm JakeGould: Live Queen is great. But "Sheer Heart Attack" is my fave album.
	11:16pm Julie M Brooklyn: I'm sorry, cuz I don't listen as often as I should, but I'm still hangin' on the comforting sound of the vinyl crackle. Is it me or is it a little bit like mac and cheese for the ears?
	♥ 11:18pm Tome: Vinyl is something you can "sink your teeth into" it's just the way it feels and sounds too ! resilient ..
	11:34pm Michael from the Left Coast: Sorry I joined late (World Series)--some of my favorites were played tonight, including the one now playing
	♥ 11:35pm efd: hey Michael! Thanks for checking in - I'd have been watching the game too if I were home.
	11:36pm cheri: evan, I remember vinyl in my younger years, but that's about it then cds started to come out
	11:36pm Michael from the Left Coast: Nothing like a little Michael Lee Smith to brighten the night (met him a few years ago--nice guy--can still sing well too)
	11:37pm cheri: and now I must say goodnight
	11:38pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--you missed nothing in this game tonight (except about twenty conferences on the mound between Contreras and whoever was the Cubs pitcher at the time--often with no outs or with two outs and no one on base--I don't know what was going on there, unless the Cubs figured out that the Indians stole signs in game one)
	♥ 11:39pm Bootsie: I was waiting for this! <3
	11:40pm phat: sniff n the tears!
	♥ 11:40pm chris_in_space: This Jays man is shouting out to the Cubbies tonight and for the WS W
	11:41pm Julie M Brooklyn: National League. NATIONAL LEAGUE.
	♥ 11:43pm ! I X SpooKey !: !

	♥ 11:49pm efd: I hope you mean that in a good way! :)
	♥ 11:50pm chris_in_space: I haven't heard this Rocky Burnette tune since the end of the Carter administration. Serious.
	11:50pm Michael from the Left Coast: Tired of Toein' the Line was a huge hit at the time, yet it got almost no play on radio after that
	11:56pm phat: I remember it with fondness.
	♥ 11:58pm chris_in_space: Sweet Chilliwack. @efd didn't you get a Chilliwack LP on your most recent trip to Vancouver?
	11:59pm Julie M Brooklyn: Thanks for all the nice vinyl crackle, Evan.

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

Wed. Apr 2nd, Noon - 3pm: Bruce McCulloch (More info...)
Bruce McCulloch from The Kids In The Hall makes his third visit to the show as The Evan “Funk” Davies Show continues to burnish its reputation as the most Kids In The Hall-adjacent radio show in the US! They’ll chat about Bruce’s one-man show Tales of Bravery And Stupidity, which returns to NYC for a one-night engagement at the Bell House on April 12.
Wed. Apr 16th, Noon - 3pm: Consumables (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Consumables have just released their debut album, Infinite Games (We Are Time / Fierce Panda), which was produced and co-written by fellow Brooklynite Ben Hozie of Bodega. Fans of that band and other latter-day takes on post-punk (Parquet Courts, Yard Act) will want to check out this live set.
Wed. Apr 30th, Noon - 3pm: Robert Dayton, author of Cold Glitter: The Untold Story of Canadian Glam (More info...) Canadian author / visual artist / musician Robert Dayton (you may remember his early-2000s duo Canned Hamm) joins Evan in the studio to discuss this exhaustively researched book that’s just been published by Feral House. There’s a launch party Tuesday night the 29th at VillageWorks in NYC, and Robert will be performing at Baker Falls on Wednesday the 30th.
Wed. May 7th, Noon - 3pm: Tuff Sunshine (More info...)
New York City’s Tuff Sunshine is, in the studio at least, the sole product of musician and songwriter Johnny Leitera. For their return to WFMU (following an appearance on Three Chord Monte in 2017) a full band will be on hand to perform Leitera’s hazy pop-psych tunes, no doubt including some from their latest album Vanity Matrix (Declared Goods).

	♥ 9:15pm herb.nyc: Hi all. Niiiice start! Billy Bragg did a version of "when will..."; not bad but maybe for fans only.

	♥ 9:22pm Listener Julian: Hey Evan! Great show so far. Love that Saints song! Is that a saxophone?

	9:35pm john: There were rumours about those two...
	9:40pm JakeGould: Oh seaside woman… What you can do to a man! Hubba hubba! Like bring me a beer.
	9:41pm john: You just inflicted three whole minutes of Linda McCartney on the assembled multitudes. You owe us.
	9:42pm Jack Scheff: yes!!! Rah Rah Rasputin!!!!
	9:43pm john: That's fair. Boney M totally makes it all worthwhile.

	♥ 10:05pm efd: yeah, I thought that was weird when I saw that movie.
	♥ 10:09pm chris_in_space: What up Funk-a-maniacs. Coming into the show an hour late tonight. Looks like the party is in full 45rpm swing.

	10:44pm JakeGould: Yup. Alan Longmuir can be added to the list of sad post-fame stories. www.dailyrecord.co.uk...
	♥ 10:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Being youngest sibling of five - original 'Quick Joey Small' 45 (The Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus - 1968) - was a primary 7" that was 'around'...A grim Bluesy tale for 'Bubblegum'... Nice cover!
	♥ 10:54pm efd: Darren Burn was just 9 years old when he recorded that record!

	♥ 11:03pm Roberto: This was the theme song for my senior year college house.
	♥ 11:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Queen - staggering band unfortunately corrupted by Top40 success.
	11:04pm Faye: @efd so do I. I'm inspired.
	11:05pm john: Finally, Nick Gilder. Two hours five minutes and I can finally exhale.
	♥ 11:05pm Tome: so much more to queen then top 40I think New Of the World and Jazz just 2 examples ... and way before that ..
	♥ 11:11pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Only by WFMU have I heard that early Live Queen they just put out. HolySmokes! Pheenomenal.
	11:13pm JakeGould: Live Queen is great. But "Sheer Heart Attack" is my fave album.
	11:16pm Julie M Brooklyn: I'm sorry, cuz I don't listen as often as I should, but I'm still hangin' on the comforting sound of the vinyl crackle. Is it me or is it a little bit like mac and cheese for the ears?
	♥ 11:18pm Tome: Vinyl is something you can "sink your teeth into" it's just the way it feels and sounds too ! resilient ..
	11:34pm Michael from the Left Coast: Sorry I joined late (World Series)--some of my favorites were played tonight, including the one now playing
	♥ 11:35pm efd: hey Michael! Thanks for checking in - I'd have been watching the game too if I were home.
	11:36pm cheri: evan, I remember vinyl in my younger years, but that's about it then cds started to come out
	11:36pm Michael from the Left Coast: Nothing like a little Michael Lee Smith to brighten the night (met him a few years ago--nice guy--can still sing well too)
	11:37pm cheri: and now I must say goodnight
	11:38pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--you missed nothing in this game tonight (except about twenty conferences on the mound between Contreras and whoever was the Cubs pitcher at the time--often with no outs or with two outs and no one on base--I don't know what was going on there, unless the Cubs figured out that the Indians stole signs in game one)
	♥ 11:39pm Bootsie: I was waiting for this! <3
	11:40pm phat: sniff n the tears!
	♥ 11:40pm chris_in_space: This Jays man is shouting out to the Cubbies tonight and for the WS W
	11:41pm Julie M Brooklyn: National League. NATIONAL LEAGUE.
	♥ 11:43pm ! I X SpooKey !: !

	♥ 11:50pm chris_in_space: I haven't heard this Rocky Burnette tune since the end of the Carter administration. Serious.
	11:50pm Michael from the Left Coast: Tired of Toein' the Line was a huge hit at the time, yet it got almost no play on radio after that
	11:56pm phat: I remember it with fondness.
	♥ 11:58pm chris_in_space: Sweet Chilliwack. @efd didn't you get a Chilliwack LP on your most recent trip to Vancouver?
	11:59pm Julie M Brooklyn: Thanks for all the nice vinyl crackle, Evan.
