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.

Good evening all!
So cool, listening to Tom channel Nachum (did I hear him call for Mathis at one point? Hallucinate?)...
But, I'm saving it all for EFD this year!
... now to figure out how much "it all" is...
Tue. 3/3/09 11:14pm
From:
Sybil
Saving it all for EFD and Mike Lupica, that is!!!
Tue. 3/3/09 11:15pm

Great song Evan. Good luck on the marathon.

Proposal:
For the next three hours, the 75 dollar pledge level is rechristened the "Mayhem" pledge.

Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
Current prize up for grabs: Pylon re-issue CD! Pledge $15 or more right now and it could be yours! 1-800-989-9368
Tue. 3/3/09 11:21pm

This CD rocks. Well worth the pledge.

iactually own this 12" OF Leisure Process's big Canadian single, even if this was the short version.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:27pm
From:
Adam Pinch
Already pledged some but I'll open the wallet again for some ... Au Pairs, Comsat Angels, Undertones, obscure Buzzcocks, anything the Wedding Present have ever done though no Cinerama, and the Delta 7s (who are way under appreciated.) Of course the Hank IV would be welcome.
Keep it up ......... yo.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:28pm
From:
Kramer
More Pylon??????????????????
Tue. 3/3/09 11:29pm
From:
Kramer
I have recording of Peel's Festive 50 where he seems pretty fond of Cinerama.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:31pm
From:
Sybil
Mayhem!
Wait, no one's adopted EFD yet? Hmm.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:38pm
From:
Joe
Do it Sybil. If I do it I'll just make the name really embarassing.
And nobody wants that.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:42pm
From:
Sybil
The thought is very tempting.
But my accountant is whispering in my ear. I may need to find a partner in this enterprise. Or two.
In other news, the WFMU insta-pledge banner doesn't show up correctly in my blog, and I can't fix it. (I actually have other work I need to be doing now, believe it or not.)
Tue. 3/3/09 11:44pm

Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
New Prize: Ladytron's "Velocifero" CD! Please pledge $15 or more right now to be in the drawing!
Tue. 3/3/09 11:50pm
From:
Kramer
Gilder is the second CN band on this show. Sound's like a Sweet outtake.
150+1 !!!
Now 662+4 This happens too often.. Hmm.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:52pm
From:
E.L.
Way to go, Sybil!
Tue. 3/3/09 11:53pm

Apostrophe abuse! Apostrophe abuse! I'm melting! Melllllllllting!
Tue. 3/3/09 11:54pm
From:
Sybil
Wow. I'm, like, speechless.
"Like" speechless, not speechless.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:54pm
From:
Lauren
aw I thought if I pledged online I'd be in the running for the Ladytron CD? guess not! Would've pledged either way. haha. awesome band, awesome show, Evan!
Tue. 3/3/09 11:56pm
From:
Sybil
Lauren, I pledged online. I actually did it during the period for the previous prize, though. There seems to be a lag. (Just so you online pledgers know.) I'm not complaining, though.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:58pm
From:
Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
New prize alert! New Bloods - "The Secret Life" CD -- Pledge at least $15 now to be in the drawing for it. Time is short, friends -- the time to support Evan is NOW.
Tue. 3/3/09 11:58pm
From:
Ike
There has definitely always been a lag, so if you want to get in on a drawing via online pledge, then hustle. (This is especially important to remember during Seven Second Delay!)
Wed. 3/4/09 12:03am
From:
Lauren
ah ok! thanks for clarifying. Not a big deal at all, just wanted to make sure it would go through and be noted for the show in general, if anything. good to know!
Wed. 3/4/09 12:04am
From:
Kramer
Theatre of Hate??
What's next Cabaret Voltaire? Fire Engines? Random Hold? Blanc Mange?
Wed. 3/4/09 12:16am
From:
Naomi
Clearly it would be Il y a des Volkswagons!
Wed. 3/4/09 12:18am
From:
Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
Current prize: Wreckless Eric and Amy Rigby's new CD! Call 1-800-989-9368 or pledge online to be in the drawing!
Wed. 3/4/09 12:23am
From:
Kramer
Since Smoke House is taken, I think a looping American Woman riff is appropriate.
Wed. 3/4/09 12:26am
From:
Kramer
Or maybe something from Metal Urban.
Wed. 3/4/09 12:28am
From:
Kramer
Is that movie "Brainstorm"?
Wed. 3/4/09 12:29am
From:
Emily
Mister Lonley!
Wed. 3/4/09 12:30am
From:
Chris Costello
are you talking about mister lonely?
the one about the michael jackson impresonator?
Wed. 3/4/09 12:40am
From:
efd
yes! that's it... thanks all for helping out (and for your pledges, of course!)
Wed. 3/4/09 12:42am
From:

Alright, decks are CLEARED! The current prize is the Imaginary Icons vinyl, and you might win it by pledging now at 1-800-989-9368. Call now!

From:
efd
Mike, this is for you.
Wed. 3/4/09 12:49am
From:
Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
From the MC side of the studio, I thank you sir!
Wed. 3/4/09 12:51am
From:
Joe
Is that exclamation point part of the actual title, or just a bit of editorializing on the part of the DJ?
Wed. 3/4/09 12:53am
From:
Kramer
Help me,
This Polyrock tune has dragged me into the new wave vortex.
OK I'll pledge again for the EFD premo.
Wed. 3/4/09 12:56am
From:
Sybil
This is a great prize! Pledge now, you guys!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:00am
From:
Danne D
C'mon ya got folks like Terez and Sherri (and I probably spelled both wrong) and Tom S and Terre etc. I mean that's a cool phone room! Btw, anybody adopt Evan yet? (I can't as I already sponsored Knuckles the Dog)
Wed. 3/4/09 1:05am
From:
Marathon Co-host Mike Lupica
OK, last hour of the show, y'all, so I think you'd agree that a RALLY is what we need to carry us through til 2 AM! Current prize = the Baseball Project "Frozen Ropes and Dying Quails" CD. Pledge now to (maybe!) win it!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:05am
From:
efd
as far as I know I have not yet been adopted. :(
Wed. 3/4/09 1:06am
From:
Sybil
I'm counting my durn pennies to see if I can afford to adopt Evan. But I'll toss another MAYHEM-sized pledge in the mix.
Rally!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:10am
From:
john
Hey folks...a belated happy marathoning to all!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:12am
From:
Danne D
Go Sybil! I hear Evan is even housebroken (not sure about Knuckles the Dog in that regard). I think I'm about to take a stab at the baseball project CD as that's too many bands i like all mashed up together :)
Wed. 3/4/09 1:14am
From:
Sybil
Don't let me stop anyone else who want to adopt him... and doesn't have to tap into the stimulus funds to do it... (sigh)
Wed. 3/4/09 1:19am
From:
Sybil
That reminds me... where is our multiply-named friend tonight?=)=)=)=)
Wed. 3/4/09 1:22am
From:
Danne D
Of course someone can adopt Evan in honor of Sybil :)
Wed. 3/4/09 1:23am
From:
Joe
I'm trying to figure out how we could feasibly form some kind of EFD "holding company"...
Wed. 3/4/09 1:23am
From:
Danne D
I'd be sad about not winning but I believe the prize wealth should be shared anyhow :) And you can't go wrong throwing a few bones FMU's way regardless.
Wed. 3/4/09 1:24am
From:
Sybil
Ah, yes, a consortium!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:27am
From:
Sybil
Danne D, everyone's a winnah!

Marathon co-host Mike Lupica
New prize, y'all: The Cheap Time CD on In The Red Records. Who loves Cheap Time? YOU LOVE CHEAP TIME! Call and pledge now!
Wed. 3/4/09 1:33am
From:
Joe
This is an awesome song, but one can't help but catch from it a certain undertone of frustration.
Wed. 3/4/09 1:45am
From:
Marathon co-host Mike Lupica
Don Cavalli CD on deck! With apologies to the Bayou Blues community, NOW'S the time to show your support for Evan Funk Davies. Please pledge in these waning moments of the program, and let WFMU know you've got our backs in 2009!

Patheticly ancient, I first heard this Robert Johnson on WPIX FM in 1979 and actually bought the album. It's in that stack of vinyl to MP3's I've not gotten around to (only up to the letter H).
He was a celebrated guitar player, accoring to the DJs at the time. That didn't make the album any better that the song we just heard.
At this point, with the perspective of history, and a stained glass view of the universe, I'm thinking Don Cavalli is much more interesting.

this is great stuff funko
Wed. 3/4/09 1:58am
From:
Sybil
OK, I'm up to 10 times chai... all I can do tonight!

Wed. 3/4/09 2:00am

Yay Sybil!
