Playlist for The Evan "Funk" Davies Show - February 11, 2008

Tuesdays 11pm - 2am on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

LOVE this version of "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" (and thought it way cool that it is forever immortalized in the first "Kill Bill" movie!)

Mon. 2/11/08 11:17pm From: slugluv1313

Did you see the NYT's real live roundup of ye olde dogge and ponye show, featuring The Cat [from Red Dwarf, aka Morris Day]? "The Time singer was so pleased with his shiny gold jacket and oversize sunglasses that he had a mirror brought out." Oh for shame. snark-irony = doing it wrong. (The bit has been excised from the article online. But it made me look. )

For the Vivien Goldman song, I think Keith Levine was the guitar player on this track.

Tue. 2/12/08 12:06am From: JM

Not to be a buzzkill about an otherwise fine show, but I think you keep dropping the right channel (at least online). Makes oddly mixed music sound odder...

Tue. 2/12/08 12:09am From: efd

hi JM, i think it's a particular turntable although i only noticed it just now on the cause commotion song. i'll keep an eye on that, thanks for mentioning it.

Tue. 2/12/08 12:13am From: KC

These Are Powers need to get down to Philadelphia again! Tell them I'll clean out my basement if the'll play!

Tue. 2/12/08 12:29am From: JM

I said I didn't want to be buzz kill -- Let 'em rip on just the left channel! Someone else will fix it later, right (no pun intended)? I'm already over it.
BTW: I'm in Seattle doing taxes, I'll be with you till the end.

Tue. 2/12/08 12:33am From: efd

thanks JM... if i could put it in mono then maybe i'd do that, but i actually think it sounds too weird to just have it in one channel. don't worry, if anything it's the turntable that's killing (or giving birth to) the buzz, not you.
KC - good to hear from you!

Tue. 2/12/08 12:47am From: Jessica

Over the three day openning, 111 theaters each had 29 people pay to see that bit of cinema. Go figure.

I heart that new Dan Melchior single.

Tue. 2/12/08 12:57am From: efd

and I guess none of those 3,219 people are listening right now.

Tue. 2/12/08 1:29am From: Ike

Wasn't it more like 2,400,000 people? If we're talking about the same pile of crud. And no, none of them are listening.

Tue. 2/12/08 1:29am From: JM

The purple orchid is cute. I'm gonna write her a note during study hall. I think the black/pink/blond girl has to go to the bathroom.
Kudos for Sonic Sum.

Tue. 2/12/08 1:32am From: Jessica

$76 per location on opening day, per box office reports.

Tue. 2/12/08 1:33am From: Jessica

[...and a half-box of kleenex™.]

Tue. 2/12/08 1:34am From: efd

i wonder if that means i could have paid a theater $77 *not* to show it...?

Tue. 2/12/08 1:36am From: KC

Always,always! Japanther's been down here recently...Heard it was an epic show. I must say that I miss the NYC area,but only a little! Thanks for playin 'em!

Tue. 2/12/08 1:41am From: COBRA

this blood sweat and tears joint was hot

Tue. 2/12/08 1:55am From: Jessica

Where are my roller skates?! Quick!

Tue. 2/12/08 8:38pm From: freshie

That Orchids LP cover is HOT! Look at those jumpsuits!
I am going to myspace friend them right now.
