Listener comments!

toni daytona:

hiya evan,,,how was your halloween?? did you go to any parties??? i sure missed you was away for a while =)
  11:20pm
AZ:

That Top Secret 45 was the most absurd pastiche of Propaganda-era Sparks I've ever heard. Also, the only pastiche of Propaganda-era Sparks I've ever heard. Does this Huge Hart single predate or postdate "Oh Luncinda" by the Only Ones? Because it feels kinda Only Ones-esque, don't you think?
  11:22pm
osvi:

Yo EFD, you guys hit my b-day sooner than I do, isnt that crazy? Im blessing my day with a bottle of cheap wine and your beats. Feliz cumpleanos to me...
  11:25pm
toni daytona:

i'm afraid this is my last comment for tonite evan,,,but i'll still be listening so could you please play something romantic for me & brad??? thnx efd,,=)
  11:26pm
efd:

osvi, happy (earlyish) birthday!
AZ, I think the "Lucinda" you just heard is post-Only Ones. And yea, that Top Secret 45 is... interesting.
Toni, I had a quiet Halloween at home. No parties.
  11:40pm
AZ:

I think Alzo was a person, not a band. He was part of the duo Alzo & Udine who made a decent LP that shows up every once in a while.
  11:46pm
efd:

you're right AZ, the writing credit on that single is "A. Fronte" - presumably the "A" is for "Alzo."
  11:51pm
toni d.:

evan---i know what i said before but PLEASE find something romantic to play for brad & i ty again,,,g'nite=)
  11:53pm
