	9:20pm Handy Haversack: Hey, everyone!
	9:20pm BJ Skaught: There are rumors of Stamey/Holsapple news coming next week??
	9:20pm vertual: I think i wore out this Holsapple /Stamey record when it came out. It still sounds so good.
	9:21pm Joe B: same here vertual
	9:21pm Mark Hurst: Scott! Same! Very much so.
	9:22pm Alex of Chicago: Three of my favorite bands already played.
	9:22pm pgalub: kinks, holsapple/stamey, dumptruck pandamic TRIFECTA! So great!
	9:23pm Spinning Giant: Digging the dumptruck! Cool stuff EFD - cheers!
	9:23pm Uncle Michael: the steel on this track is great
	9:24pm Handy Haversack: Can't believe I never knew Dumptruck growing up.
	9:25pm Spinning Giant: @Vertual let's go for a spin down to the beach in that puppy! Yeehaw!!!
	9:25pm Spinning Giant: @Aitch - forgive my ignorance but what in Sam Hell are "moobs"...?
	9:27pm JakeGould: @Scott @Mark : Get a room… And consistently stay 6 feet away from each.
	9:27pm listener 126464: hoo hah hah hoo
	9:28pm Figgsrock: Oh yeah, The Three Degrees >>>>>>>>>>> Meat Loaf.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: Shoot EFD - CD! Nice... I miss my old collection...iTunes just ain't the same, man...foolish enough to let the now ex's relentlessly nagging wear me down and practically gave them away at a garage sale...
	9:28pm Joe B: Fred Sanford thanks you for playing the three degrees!
	9:28pm vertual: Other than the Nova's vinyl red seats, i remember the new car smell that was mixed with the smell of the weekend joints smoked on the way to concerts and movies. Very pungent mix.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: Handy, I was just thinking the same thing... Never heard of them before this... So good...
	9:29pm johnk77: i have a free version of VirtualDJ8 on my mac it works well in very limited testing
	9:29pm gw: Great set EFD .
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: I raise a glass of champipple to Fred.
	9:29pm Spinning Giant: @Vertual - I can practically taste that beauty machine...is it still in the family...?
	9:30pm P-90: “C’mon C’mon...”
	9:30pm Stevel: Only the finest champipple in all of Kansas, no doubt.
	9:30pm Fuzzy: Ah, to be 8 again...
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: no doubt
	9:30pm herb.nyc: "When will I see you again?", a staple when I was a young urchin. On 77wabc; wmca had good music too (57 on the am dial?). I love Billy Bragg but his version is bleh.
	9:31pm vertual: no, it was traded for a firebird 400 that was a few years older but a lot cooler. But neither are still with us.
	9:32pm Fuzzy: DJ Cat 5ive in da house!
	9:32pm JakeGould: DJ Cat 6
	9:32pm P-90: “efd” = “Ethernet “Funk” Disk Jockey” now?
	9:33pm Carmichael: Heya Evan.
	9:33pm Spinning Giant: Vertual ...bummer
	9:35pm Andres: Hey Evan! CanCon is not fulfilled until you play some Lime!
	9:35pm JakeGould: “LaMont, you big dummy! You got to wash your hands for 20 seconds, not 20 minutes!”
	9:35pm herb.nyc: Back to Meat Loaf- he holds up reeeal well. Ira Kaplan was dj'ng recently and he said "if I never hear Never Mind the Sex Pistols that'd be alright by me". Paraphrased. I hope I got that right (bec I'm gonna get skewered if not)
	9:36pm vertual: I can see Aunt Esther hitting Fred with her purse right now.
	9:36pm Carmichael: “What’s the difference between a peeping tom and a pickpocket?”
	9:36pm johnk77: mr. loaf rocked as a frontman live
	9:38pm Spinning Giant: Carmichael, you gonna leave us hangin'...?
	9:38pm Scott Williams: Marcia Strassman, Kim Gordon, and Saddam Hussein
	9:39pm sufferwords: check Johnny Winter for Still Alive and Well
	9:39pm BJ Skaught: Happy birthday Mom "Funk" Davies!
	9:39pm listener 126464: send some cannolis to Evan
	9:39pm Carmichael: That’s a Redd Foxx blue record joke: “A pickpocket snatches watches.”
	9:39pm Autumn: HBD, EFD’s mom!
	9:40pm P-90: “Brought to you by the September 27th Birthday Airhorn”?
	9:40pm Spinning Giant: Carmichael, Classic! ROTFL
	9:41pm Spinning Giant: Happy Bday MFD!
	9:41pm Uncle Michael: I love this song and the video was great.
	9:41pm Judy: Thanks for the big birthday greeting!
	9:42pm vertual: Marcia Strassman, Kim Gordon, and Saddam Hussein...Sounds like a Carnac the Magnificient clue.
	9:43pm Spinning Giant: Such a great tune! Sounds like a rockier 70sier side project Rufus Wainwright might undertake...
	9:44pm Spinning Giant: Vertual - totally... Haha
	9:46pm herb.nyc: Pernice! I was alerted to his Barry Manilow covers (on Vimeo?). BUT, happy birthday to Evan's mom!
	9:46pm JakeGould: @ScottWilliams: What is the best Zoom meeting ever?
	9:47pm efd: he does a great Manilow tune in MUSIQUE!
	9:48pm Carmichael: Carnac line: “TS Elliott. What do the movers say when they repossess Elliott’s furniture ?”
	9:48pm Scott Williams: @JakeGould, is that a riddle?
	9:49pm Scott Williams: @efd, I liked this song (Jody) so much when you played it 4 weeks ago that I played it when I filled in for you 3 weeks ago. It's a hit!
	9:50pm Joe B: great one
	9:50pm Mark Hurst: Love it. Is it just me or does this have a Steely Dan vibe?
	9:51pm Scott Williams: It ain't just you, Mark!
	9:51pm Stevel: Mark Hurst:Definitely not just you
	9:51pm Power Papi: "The Long Goodbye" by A Girl Called Eddy is great: youtu.be...
	9:51pm efd: Mark, we all just took a drink since you mentioned Steely Dan! :)
	9:52pm Uncle Michael: I know I did.
	9:52pm Handy Haversack: It has been called "Steely Dan with sincerity" on these very boards.
	9:52pm JakeGould: @Scott: That is the Carnac the Magnificent question to your answer, “Marcia Strassman, Kim Gordon, and Saddam Hussein”
	9:52pm herb.nyc: My fav Karnak (Carnak?)-"may a crazed diamond cutter mount your sister!" / will have to DuckDuckGo MUSIQUE PERNICE
	9:53pm P-90: Total love letter to Steely Dan. Right down to the Larry Carlton-style guitar and Gospel-y backing vocals
	9:53pm Uncle Michael: I don't understand that. I don't think Steely Dan lacked sincerity. Cool detachment and a barbed wit doesn't preclude sincerity.
	9:54pm Scott Williams: UM, do you think they were sincere on "Everyone's Gone To The Movies"?
	9:55pm P-90: UM: I’m with you. Of all the shots one might take at Steely Dan, “insincere” is way off.
	9:55pm JakeGould: One of the few times I have heard people play music in the streets during this shut down was when I walked past a smoke shop and the middle eastern owner and friends were painting the front of the store while rocking out to Steely Dan while wearing face masks.
	9:55pm Cp304: lol what song Jake
	9:56pm Uncle Michael: I think that was a movie. A story. I don't think the writing of uncomfortable fiction makes them insincere.
	9:56pm P-90: And speaking of shots, are we all doing one now every time someone mentions Steely Dan when “Jody” is playing? Is that the latest drinking game?
	9:56pm Mark Hurst: A stage manager told me once that theater crews often use Steely Dan for A/V soundcheck, because of the perfect production values. Also because they like listening to Steely Dan.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: Mark, if you put on Steely Dan and hear distortion, well...
	9:57pm P-90: @Mark: Yes, they really do.
	9:57pm Carmichael: “May the sewers of Rangoon back into your breakfast.”
	9:58pm JakeGould: @Cp304: “Reeling in the Years” on 5th Avenue near Carroll Street in Park Slope. Painting the store frame blame, masks on and rocking to the Dan.
	9:58pm the Master: Born April 28.
	9:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: I recently heard a Bee Gees cover titled "Stayin' Inside." Bringing back the 70s for these crazy times.
	9:58pm JakeGould: Conservative Jewish teens in Midwood really like to rock out to Steely Dan as well.
	9:59pm Mark Hurst: KfHP that was my outtro on Monday night. Also Roger & Amanda played it last Saturday morning
	10:00pm herb.nyc: aside, from b'vegan: CA Governor says concerts “unlikely” to return before a coronavirus vaccine is available Read More: www.brooklynvegan.com...
	10:00pm P-90: @Carm: Yes! That’s one of my all-time faves too. Along with “May you trek across the desert behind a sacred camel” and “May you share a waterbed with the Untouchables”
	10:01pm herb.nyc: Extinction Rebellion dances to "stayin alive"; I saw it done at union sq g'mkt
	10:02pm CC: been listening from the kitchen Evan...great show so far tonight.!.. I got stuck making a late dinner...hi ya'll!!!
	10:02pm Joe B: produced by the late great dale hawkins, who was played by Becky tonight
	10:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Mark - Two days ago seems like years during a lockdown.
	10:04pm Joe B: alright!
	10:04pm Mark Hurst: So true
	10:09pm Joe B: www.network77.com
	10:19pm CC: nice visual stuff!!!
	10:20pm Tome: Steely Dan always a crowd pleaser !<>!
	10:21pm CC: I hope you ask her about her dealings with the Monkees tour???... how was the chemistry with Mike and Micky??
	10:24pm Ken From Hyde Park: This is Rachel on the phone live this minute? If so, that's really neat. She's got lots of info and stories to deliver.
	10:25pm JakeGould: @CC: Why would highly specific gossip about something tangential to her own work be of value?
	10:26pm Joe B: @Ken yes, live!
	10:28pm Chop Scott: Sounding great EFD! Scott W.! Cheers all!
	10:28pm P-90: Rachel is always delightful.
	10:28pm Scott Williams: Brother Chop! Cheers!
	10:29pm P-90: And has it really been just about FIVE years since Rachel and Bobby Hart came to Monty Hall to screen The Guys Who Wrote ‘Em ?!!!
	10:30pm Joe B: yes May 2015
	10:30pm Layet J: where can we see/hear all this stuff? I just tuned in!
	10:30pm CC: Jake... I thought she was responsible for putting all that together... that's why???
	10:31pm P-90: Wow. Feels like maybe six months ago.
	10:31pm Joe B: www.network77.com
	10:31pm Layet J: network77.com thanks :)
	10:31pm Chop Scott: Joe B.! Always solid with the dates.
	10:32pm Joe B: no way, A+ - phone sounded great
	10:33pm P-90: Yeah, one beep at the end doesn’t knock that call down from an A+
	10:33pm Uncle Michael: Great stuff, Evan.
	10:35pm Aitch: Was the song in the Coke ads in the 70's, over here at least
	10:35pm efd: phew! Thanks everyone, glad you enjoyed that!
	10:36pm Cp304: been hanging all day and it's been great all. gonna ride this one out, lay down, and see what the furlough meeting brings tomorrow.. 1
	10:37pm hendrix wolfbat: Love this one thanks Evan!
	10:38pm CC: anyway she had a very nice voice and seemed very upbeat and positive about things!!!
	10:38pm hendrix wolfbat: I don't always listen live and I was so glad when I realized who's show I was catching right now!!
	10:38pm hendrix wolfbat: Whose
	10:43pm Ciggy: @EFD ~ you have 50% of my attention.
	10:44pm Tom&Julia: Here's your Sanford-Three Degrees clip https://thomasferraro.org/sanford.mp3 Can't wait to cook for WFMU again!
	10:45pm Brian in Kamloops: Sorry to miss that Kinks song from Word of Mouth. Those of us who work in learning tech have been a bit busy moving courses online with people who have never done it before. I was chatting with another Kinks fan who does the same job, turned out we had both been playing “Do It Again” a lot lately. “Living on a Thin Line” is spot on too! Thanks for the great tunes EFD!
	10:46pm JakeGould: @Tom&Julia: Wowowowowowoow! Very nice.
	10:47pm JakeGould: “State of Confusion” and “Word of Mouth” are great Kinks albums.
	10:49pm listener 126464: Heart Bones at the Saint- last live show for me
	10:49pm efd: oh wow, thank you Tom & Julia! Can't wait to enjoy your cooking again!
	10:52pm herb.nyc: re Australian bands, at a Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever Show, I'm at merch table and a young Australian man is there. I mention the Go-Betweens to him. He goes "who?". Ouch.
	10:56pm brian: And even more Kinks Kontent!
	10:58pm CC: just reviewing the message board and you're right sufferwords... it's hard to beat Johnny Winter's version of Still Alive and Well!!!
	10:59pm CC: Rick Derringer was the only boy that could ever keep up with him on guitar!!!
	11:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: (The "MUSIQUE" link points to this playlist.)
	11:05pm efd: whoops! Thanks Ken, I think I had an errant quotation mark. Should work now (when the page refreshes)?
	11:06pm listener 126464: did somebody say keep on rockin'?
	11:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yes, looks good now.
	11:09pm listener 126464: Sean Tillman- Har Mar Superstar
	11:10pm listener 126464: other half of heart bones

	11:31pm anvilvloud: Really nice set boss!! Wife and I just shouting out some Large Thanks Sir! -Spring Tx. Be Safe!
	11:33pm CC: that's Rexy stuff wouldn't be in the category of funky, I don't think???
	11:34pm Marc15: Rexy — “Running Out Of Time” — 1981
	11:34pm listener 126464: Karen's a keeper
	11:38pm P-90: Thank you, @Anonymous Donor!
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: WFMU is doing so much to keep me on an even keel mentally these days. Infinite thanks to all y'all, and Anonymous Donor.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 15, 2020

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!

April 15, 2020: live from Studio E(FD), with special socially-distant guest RACHEL LICHTMAN, creator of Network 77 and MUSIQUE!

	9:23pm Uncle Michael: the steel on this track is great
	9:24pm Handy Haversack: Can't believe I never knew Dumptruck growing up.
	9:25pm Spinning Giant: @Vertual let's go for a spin down to the beach in that puppy! Yeehaw!!!
	9:25pm Spinning Giant: @Aitch - forgive my ignorance but what in Sam Hell are "moobs"...?
	9:27pm JakeGould: @Scott @Mark : Get a room… And consistently stay 6 feet away from each.
	9:27pm listener 126464: hoo hah hah hoo
	9:28pm Figgsrock: Oh yeah, The Three Degrees >>>>>>>>>>> Meat Loaf.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: Shoot EFD - CD! Nice... I miss my old collection...iTunes just ain't the same, man...foolish enough to let the now ex's relentlessly nagging wear me down and practically gave them away at a garage sale...
	9:28pm Joe B: Fred Sanford thanks you for playing the three degrees!
	9:28pm vertual: Other than the Nova's vinyl red seats, i remember the new car smell that was mixed with the smell of the weekend joints smoked on the way to concerts and movies. Very pungent mix.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: Handy, I was just thinking the same thing... Never heard of them before this... So good...
	9:29pm johnk77: i have a free version of VirtualDJ8 on my mac it works well in very limited testing
	9:29pm gw: Great set EFD .
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: I raise a glass of champipple to Fred.
	9:29pm Spinning Giant: @Vertual - I can practically taste that beauty machine...is it still in the family...?
	9:30pm P-90: “C’mon C’mon...”
	9:30pm Stevel: Only the finest champipple in all of Kansas, no doubt.
	9:30pm Fuzzy: Ah, to be 8 again...
	9:30pm Uncle Michael: no doubt
	9:30pm herb.nyc: "When will I see you again?", a staple when I was a young urchin. On 77wabc; wmca had good music too (57 on the am dial?). I love Billy Bragg but his version is bleh.
	9:31pm vertual: no, it was traded for a firebird 400 that was a few years older but a lot cooler. But neither are still with us.
	9:32pm Fuzzy: DJ Cat 5ive in da house!
	9:32pm JakeGould: DJ Cat 6
	9:32pm P-90: “efd” = “Ethernet “Funk” Disk Jockey” now?

	9:33pm Spinning Giant: Vertual ...bummer
	9:35pm Andres: Hey Evan! CanCon is not fulfilled until you play some Lime!
	9:35pm JakeGould: “LaMont, you big dummy! You got to wash your hands for 20 seconds, not 20 minutes!”
	9:35pm herb.nyc: Back to Meat Loaf- he holds up reeeal well. Ira Kaplan was dj'ng recently and he said "if I never hear Never Mind the Sex Pistols that'd be alright by me". Paraphrased. I hope I got that right (bec I'm gonna get skewered if not)
	9:36pm vertual: I can see Aunt Esther hitting Fred with her purse right now.
	9:36pm Carmichael: “What’s the difference between a peeping tom and a pickpocket?”

	9:39pm BJ Skaught: Happy birthday Mom "Funk" Davies!
	9:39pm listener 126464: send some cannolis to Evan
	9:39pm Carmichael: That’s a Redd Foxx blue record joke: “A pickpocket snatches watches.”
	9:39pm Autumn: HBD, EFD’s mom!
	9:40pm P-90: “Brought to you by the September 27th Birthday Airhorn”?
	9:40pm Spinning Giant: Carmichael, Classic! ROTFL
	9:41pm Spinning Giant: Happy Bday MFD!
	9:41pm Uncle Michael: I love this song and the video was great.
	9:41pm Judy: Thanks for the big birthday greeting!
	9:42pm vertual: Marcia Strassman, Kim Gordon, and Saddam Hussein...Sounds like a Carnac the Magnificient clue.
	9:43pm Spinning Giant: Such a great tune! Sounds like a rockier 70sier side project Rufus Wainwright might undertake...
	9:44pm Spinning Giant: Vertual - totally... Haha
	9:46pm herb.nyc: Pernice! I was alerted to his Barry Manilow covers (on Vimeo?). BUT, happy birthday to Evan's mom!
	9:46pm JakeGould: @ScottWilliams: What is the best Zoom meeting ever?
	9:47pm efd: he does a great Manilow tune in MUSIQUE!
	9:48pm Carmichael: Carnac line: “TS Elliott. What do the movers say when they repossess Elliott’s furniture ?”
	9:48pm Scott Williams: @JakeGould, is that a riddle?
	9:49pm Scott Williams: @efd, I liked this song (Jody) so much when you played it 4 weeks ago that I played it when I filled in for you 3 weeks ago. It's a hit!
	9:50pm Joe B: great one
	9:50pm Mark Hurst: Love it. Is it just me or does this have a Steely Dan vibe?
	9:51pm Scott Williams: It ain't just you, Mark!
	9:51pm Stevel: Mark Hurst:Definitely not just you
	9:51pm Power Papi: "The Long Goodbye" by A Girl Called Eddy is great: youtu.be...
	9:51pm efd: Mark, we all just took a drink since you mentioned Steely Dan! :)
	9:52pm Uncle Michael: I know I did.
	9:52pm Handy Haversack: It has been called "Steely Dan with sincerity" on these very boards.
	9:52pm JakeGould: @Scott: That is the Carnac the Magnificent question to your answer, “Marcia Strassman, Kim Gordon, and Saddam Hussein”
	9:52pm herb.nyc: My fav Karnak (Carnak?)-"may a crazed diamond cutter mount your sister!" / will have to DuckDuckGo MUSIQUE PERNICE
	9:53pm P-90: Total love letter to Steely Dan. Right down to the Larry Carlton-style guitar and Gospel-y backing vocals
	9:53pm Uncle Michael: I don't understand that. I don't think Steely Dan lacked sincerity. Cool detachment and a barbed wit doesn't preclude sincerity.
	9:54pm Scott Williams: UM, do you think they were sincere on "Everyone's Gone To The Movies"?
	9:55pm P-90: UM: I’m with you. Of all the shots one might take at Steely Dan, “insincere” is way off.
	9:55pm JakeGould: One of the few times I have heard people play music in the streets during this shut down was when I walked past a smoke shop and the middle eastern owner and friends were painting the front of the store while rocking out to Steely Dan while wearing face masks.
	9:55pm Cp304: lol what song Jake
	9:56pm Uncle Michael: I think that was a movie. A story. I don't think the writing of uncomfortable fiction makes them insincere.
	9:56pm P-90: And speaking of shots, are we all doing one now every time someone mentions Steely Dan when “Jody” is playing? Is that the latest drinking game?
	9:56pm Mark Hurst: A stage manager told me once that theater crews often use Steely Dan for A/V soundcheck, because of the perfect production values. Also because they like listening to Steely Dan.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: Mark, if you put on Steely Dan and hear distortion, well...
	9:57pm P-90: @Mark: Yes, they really do.
	9:57pm Carmichael: “May the sewers of Rangoon back into your breakfast.”
	9:58pm JakeGould: @Cp304: “Reeling in the Years” on 5th Avenue near Carroll Street in Park Slope. Painting the store frame blame, masks on and rocking to the Dan.
	9:58pm the Master: Born April 28.
	9:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: I recently heard a Bee Gees cover titled "Stayin' Inside." Bringing back the 70s for these crazy times.
	9:58pm JakeGould: Conservative Jewish teens in Midwood really like to rock out to Steely Dan as well.
	9:59pm Mark Hurst: KfHP that was my outtro on Monday night. Also Roger & Amanda played it last Saturday morning
	10:00pm herb.nyc: aside, from b'vegan: CA Governor says concerts “unlikely” to return before a coronavirus vaccine is available Read More: www.brooklynvegan.com...
	10:00pm P-90: @Carm: Yes! That’s one of my all-time faves too. Along with “May you trek across the desert behind a sacred camel” and “May you share a waterbed with the Untouchables”
	10:01pm herb.nyc: Extinction Rebellion dances to "stayin alive"; I saw it done at union sq g'mkt

	10:09pm Joe B: www.network77.com
	10:19pm CC: nice visual stuff!!!
	10:20pm Tome: Steely Dan always a crowd pleaser !<>!
	10:21pm CC: I hope you ask her about her dealings with the Monkees tour???... how was the chemistry with Mike and Micky??
	10:24pm Ken From Hyde Park: This is Rachel on the phone live this minute? If so, that's really neat. She's got lots of info and stories to deliver.
	10:25pm JakeGould: @CC: Why would highly specific gossip about something tangential to her own work be of value?
	10:26pm Joe B: @Ken yes, live!
	10:28pm Chop Scott: Sounding great EFD! Scott W.! Cheers all!
	10:28pm P-90: Rachel is always delightful.
	10:28pm Scott Williams: Brother Chop! Cheers!
	10:29pm P-90: And has it really been just about FIVE years since Rachel and Bobby Hart came to Monty Hall to screen The Guys Who Wrote ‘Em ?!!!
	10:30pm Joe B: yes May 2015
	10:30pm Layet J: where can we see/hear all this stuff? I just tuned in!
	10:30pm CC: Jake... I thought she was responsible for putting all that together... that's why???

	10:31pm Joe B: www.network77.com

	10:32pm Joe B: no way, A+ - phone sounded great
	10:33pm P-90: Yeah, one beep at the end doesn’t knock that call down from an A+
	10:33pm Uncle Michael: Great stuff, Evan.
	10:35pm Aitch: Was the song in the Coke ads in the 70's, over here at least
	10:35pm efd: phew! Thanks everyone, glad you enjoyed that!
	10:36pm Cp304: been hanging all day and it's been great all. gonna ride this one out, lay down, and see what the furlough meeting brings tomorrow.. 1
	10:37pm hendrix wolfbat: Love this one thanks Evan!
	10:38pm CC: anyway she had a very nice voice and seemed very upbeat and positive about things!!!
	10:38pm hendrix wolfbat: I don't always listen live and I was so glad when I realized who's show I was catching right now!!

	10:45pm Brian in Kamloops: Sorry to miss that Kinks song from Word of Mouth. Those of us who work in learning tech have been a bit busy moving courses online with people who have never done it before. I was chatting with another Kinks fan who does the same job, turned out we had both been playing “Do It Again” a lot lately. “Living on a Thin Line” is spot on too! Thanks for the great tunes EFD!
	10:46pm JakeGould: @Tom&Julia: Wowowowowowoow! Very nice.
	10:47pm JakeGould: “State of Confusion” and “Word of Mouth” are great Kinks albums.

	10:52pm herb.nyc: re Australian bands, at a Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever Show, I'm at merch table and a young Australian man is there. I mention the Go-Betweens to him. He goes "who?". Ouch.
	10:56pm brian: And even more Kinks Kontent!
	10:58pm CC: just reviewing the message board and you're right sufferwords... it's hard to beat Johnny Winter's version of Still Alive and Well!!!
	10:59pm CC: Rick Derringer was the only boy that could ever keep up with him on guitar!!!
	11:03pm Ken From Hyde Park: (The "MUSIQUE" link points to this playlist.)
