	9:24pm SeanG: disco!!
	9:25pm medson: Good evening folks
	9:32pm Mika: like that background music - what is it?
	9:37pm efd: hey Mika! It's a loop from a song called "Saturday Night Fever" by Lordz Of Brooklyn from the early '90s
	9:39pm Mika: Thanks efd!
	9:39pm medson: @efd Great song for your Pop Roxx segment this am. It's become one of my favorite segments.
	9:40pm efd: awesome, thanks Medson!
	9:43pm chris_in_space: Good evening Funkstituents! It's great to be here. This track by Wussy is the sound I like!
	9:45pm efd: welcome chris, and welcome all commenteers and lurkers! Thanks for tuning in tonight!
	9:53pm mark G: I Lived in Milwaukee in the early 80's- Einstein's Riceboys seemed to pop up around '81-'82, and I saw their name around town a lot on fliers and gig listings. But I never saw them and don't know a thing about them except I loved the name. I didn't have the radio on when you played them so I don't even know if I would recognize the song. Other newly formed Milwaukee bands around that time were Tense Experts, Oil Tasters (fave of mine), Boy Dirt Car, X-Cleavers. Also emerging were Couch Flambeau and Die Kreutzen.
	9:56pm Tome: hey EFD lovin' it !
	9:58pm Bootsie: Fun fact: "comprising" is actually correct. Sans the "of."
	9:59pm Switchblade Batman: Hey EFD, as usual great show. But is the network 77 you're talking about? www.network77.com
	9:59pm efd: aargh! I always get crossed up between "comprising" and "composed of!"
	10:00pm efd: hey Tome! Thanks for the MKE info, mark! There was a great Oil Tasters reissue a while back that I'd forgotten about so thanks for the reminder!
	10:02pm Bootsie: I had always thought it was "comprised of," until recently.
	10:08pm JakeGould: Hey EFD!!!
	10:09pm chris_in_space: It's all about context. Al Stewart never sounded so good.
	10:10pm efd: Switchblade, yes, that's it! Hey Jake! chris, 100% correct.
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: This record always sounds great to me.
	10:13pm ice in Bklyn: Undeniably
	10:14pm Switchblade Batman: I think Patton Oswalt was tweeting about it a while ago. I meant to check it out. THanks for the reminder!
	10:14pm ice in Bklyn: I often refer to myself as a two-hit wonder, but that’s usually related to pot smoking.
	10:15pm Uncle Michael: I saw a reference on Facebook to the the second episode of Network 77 being up, but when I checked, it was still the first one.
	10:16pm Uncle Michael: I was actually hoping to debut the Creamer single...but I don't have it yet!
	10:17pm efd: I just bought it at about 8:50pm tonight!
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: I'd hoped to debut the new Lemon Twigs but Pseu beat me to that one.
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: I'M NOT COMPETITIVE.
	10:24pm ice in Bklyn: Hand raised
	10:24pm JakeGould: OMFG EFD, are you an Al Stewart obsessive now?
	10:24pm Rammstein: Totally worth it.
	10:25pm Bootsie: I _thought_ "Year of the Cat" sounded different from the way I remembered...
	10:26pm Gordon FM: Year of the Cat is one of the best recordings ever. Thank you.
	10:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: That song is so good, it has nine lives.
	10:27pm Switchblade Batman: Aww, thanks for the shoutout @EFD
	10:36pm JakeGould: Nothing wrong with being passionate about an artist like Al Stewart.
	10:37pm as from mp: en attendant = only the t is silent. you may be confusing with 3rd person plural 'ils attendent' where ent is silent but hard d sound is pronounced... hope that helps, not too pedantic
	10:40pm Mags in Rockaway Beach: Great show!!
	10:40pm efd: thanks Mags! I was out your way on Sunday evening!
	10:41pm efd: as, I appreciate the French refresher!
	10:45pm Mike tp: sounding good the merchants......
	10:56pm JakeGould: I regret all of my Al Stewart snark.
	10:56pm steveL: The Skrags sound see-able
	11:05pm larry of lackawack: Bought Body Head tix today for BSP
	11:12pm steveL: That last gasping breath!
	11:15pm efd: a great moment in recorded sound!
	11:15pm efd: steve, I note that you are now lowercasing your first initial and uppercasing your last initial.
	11:18pm Mike Sin: Two versions of "Saturday Night," correct? UK and US versions have different vocals, IIRC.
	11:19pm efd: @Jake all is forgiven! (actually I wasn't even upset in the first place!)
	11:20pm efd: ooh, Mike, that sounds familiar now that you mention it
	11:25pm steveL: efd: My graphic adjustment is because I wiped it from the app (see Rammstein) and couldn't remember exactly how it was. Also, I've wanted to clarify this initial. For a long time. Possibly overthinking, but hey.
	11:25pm DJ E: Got to see Electric Six last year when they came down to S. Florida. Really fun show. "We have come to S. Florida to make a record with O.J. Simpson"
	11:26pm DJ E: Sorry, been meaning to mention it since you said they were playing downstairs.
	11:30pm efd: yeah, I saw them last year around this time downstairs. Not on a Wednesday, obvs.
	11:33pm Hoboken Jack: Pale Lights: good tunes, good people!
	11:34pm efd: agreed on both counts, Jack!
	11:40pm mmmmud face: Just want to say thanks for the RockATeens tix last week- that show was f*ing amazing!!! Age appropriate shows can change your life!!!
	11:40pm steveL: Hey kids! What season is it?!
	11:41pm fleep: And .... there it is.
	11:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: I can hear it!
	11:43pm efd: thanks for the thanks, mmmmud face! Glad you enjoyed the show!
	11:48pm Solely and FashionTashjian: Greetings from the sunny city Yerevan, Armenia. It's 07:47 am here. And the day, of course, starts with WFMU.
	11:52pm efd: welcome to Wednesday night, FT!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from July 18, 2018

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.

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!
