The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from October 7, 2008

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.

October 7, 2008: Can-Con requirements met, plus: Red Sox advance!

Listener comments!
	11:07pm C: ALCS!
	11:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi. I just got back from voting. X Ray Burns is currently trailing Jandek, I see.
	11:08pm efd: yeah! ooh, that reminds me - i forgot to pull the Standells CD!
	11:09pm miss buxley: evan--happy october...i'm ALWAYS returnin to efd!!!!! with lots of love=)=)=)
	11:10pm john: One step closer to the ultimate Yankee fan nightmare--a World Series where the Sawx face Joe Torre's Doggers.
	11:11pm C: Noooo! I guess Sweet Caroline or DKM would work now, if you've got those.
	11:12pm Joe: John you shut your filthy mouth.
	11:12pm efd: no worries, C, the "s" section of the library is very close to the studio.
	11:12pm toni daytona: efd,,i wanna hear surfin bird,,PLEASE EVAN!!!!!
	11:12pm john: QED. By the way, Hey folks!
	11:14pm efd: hi John, Joe, Miss B/Toni D, & Ken FHP!
	11:17pm Joe: Hello, rediculous electronic beats that make me wanna dance! Man, you should start every show with this song.
	11:18pm toni daytona: efd---have i ever told you that you ROCK MY WORLD???=)=)=)
	11:23pm efd: I'm pretty sure that subject has come up before, Toni D. But it never gets old!
	11:25pm ~L: The Faint!!! Woo-hoo!!! Thanks 4 playing this, I don't have it yet!
	11:26pm Laurie: Ugggggghhhhh McCain Girls
	11:27pm Joe: You know, I never noticed it before, but their iambic pentameter is WAY off.
	11:27pm C: The only thing McCain was raining was creepyness and desperation. Give me the "Hillary in the House" singer any day.
	11:28pm john: Instant polls showing a decisive Obama win tonight. Just saying, as an accidental polling geek.
	11:30pm efd: i didn't get to watch it, obviously, but I DVR'd the debate and the CNN coverage. I guess I'll watch it tomorrow.
	11:31pm Sybil: But evan... if the Dodgers end up facing the Red Sox... well... my brain may explode.
	11:33pm Sybil: John, BTW: I am so sad about the Mets. Really.
	11:34pm Laurie: Deadline already passed in Florida!
	11:35pm john: Sybil, they didn't quite deserve it. But very sweet of you. ALCS going to be exciting!
	11:37pm Sybil: John: no doubt!
	11:40pm john: This makes it the first night in weeks I don't have to talk like a portfolio manager and polling commentator. Thanks!
	11:43pm toni d.: i gotta scat now evan,,but i'm listenin to the show a while longer gnite all,,love u evan!!! ohhhhh baseball and the debate is sooo boring!!! PEACE=)=)=)
	11:45pm Marcelo: gracias por ese "tanguito" hermano god bless Evan
	11:46pm efd: have a good night, Toni D. de nada, Marcelo. Argentina, right?
	11:47pm efd: when the Mets pulled out that Thursday night game against the Cubs I thought they were going to make it.... but, no such luck. I was at the game the night before that -- dryer weather, but a more painful game.
	11:49pm efd: Dodgers vs. Red Sox would certainly be interesting, for a variety of reasons! But I would still have no hesitation in rooting for the Red Sox.
	11:50pm Marcelo: yes, man yes o si hombre si stay tuned... thanx for the music
	11:53pm randy in NC: Yay Sawx, through the Angels gauntlet, AGAIN!
	11:59pm john: Dodgers are playing like a real team; Torre has calmed down a vicious clubhouse. Even Jeff Kent is getting good press for being a nice guy. It's all down to Torre, the only thing a manager actually gets all the credit for.
	12:18am Ismael: hi, is this the playoff board? looks cool. but what's with all the music, tho?
	12:19am john: Saw the Mondays when they were touring this album. Shaun Ryder managed to hold a microphone, cigarette and beer throughout the show. THAT'S rock.
	12:28am efd: hi Ismael, comment away on the playoffs - don't let the music stop you! :) Hi Randy, thanks for checking in!
	12:40am Joe: Wow, Young MC can rip. Even though I thought he was saying "no hat." BTW, Ev, I hope you step your rap game up a little bit, now that Coffee Break is ... on coffee break. I need my late night hip-hop.
	1:04am randy in NC: What a great song that was!
	1:12am Laurie: Is the reissued CD entitled "#1 CD"?
	1:13am efd: let the record show that Randy is referring to "The Secretary" by Sailor.
	1:13am efd: Laurie, you'd think it might be, a la 3rd Bass and PiL -- but no, it's still called #1 Cassette.
	1:16am ttttt: hey hey! this is from 'Suspended in Animation' isn't it? What a great album..
	1:17am tttttt: Bad habits, eh? oh so wrong. Maybe it is the better of the two after all.
	1:19am efd: tttttt, this is the only album of theirs I know... but it is pretty great!
	1:23am ttttt: Second one never quite flew past the guarded gates, but it is as excellent if not better.
	1:40am john: Love this boston spaceships record....bob at his absolute best!
	1:43am john: And the Pretties! Evan, you outdo yourself tonight!
	1:44am efd: thanks John, glad you're enjoying it!
	1:46am Joe: "Muslims" is a spectacular band-name
