	9:14pm melinda: Thanks for the suggestion Ike. I've wondered where the disco is hiding on WFMU.
	9:15pm Tome: ...love the sound of those resilient 12" s ,, just so beefy .. !
	9:17pm Ike & Ram: This annual EFD disco party always makes for an excellent archive to play at parties. (Only if consensual, of course.)

	9:31pm cheri: ike, why are you starting trouble? i'm here to have fun!
	9:32pm JustSheaNo: Hey, @efd, awesome as usual! what are my chances of hearing The Whispers or maybe even Dennis Edwards?
	9:33pm cheri: efd, i'm really enjoying the dance party
	9:34pm efd: JustSheaNo, your chances of hearing the Whispers are much higher than Dennis Edwards, I can say that!
	9:34pm efd: thank you cheri.
	9:35pm Clenny the Carp: SET IT OFF ON THAT CLEFT PALATE.
	9:38pm JakeGould: No nonsense on the dance floor… Unless it’s consensual.
	9:40pm Clenny the Carp: UNLESS IT'S CONSENSUAL BELLYBUTTON SODOMY
	9:42pm Clenny the Carp: OR AT LEAST A DISCREET NIPPLE IN THE URETHRA
	9:44pm Weems: I used to work at the NYPL with the brother of the Peech Boys singer, Bernard Fowler!
	9:47pm JustSheaNo: Woohoo putting my dancing shoes on!
	9:52pm efd: Weems, that is awesome!
	9:53pm cheri: efd would you say i'm across between a disco diva or a dancing queen?
	9:58pm steve: nice one! never heard this one before...
	9:59pm efd: Cool, thanks steve! Hardest damn thing about this show every year is balancing the cool new stuff I've picked up with the classics (EFD classics, anyway) that I can't get enough of.
	10:00pm cheri: efd, it's ok you don't have to answer my question.
	10:01pm efd: It's an inane question, cheri. And I don't need your permission not to answer it.
	10:03pm Kat in Chicago: EFD's disco dance party is one party I don't like being late to. Finally made it!
	10:03pm Mary: @cheri Get some counseling
	10:04pm efd: Glad you got here, Kat! Still 2/3rds of the party left!
	10:05pm cheri: you're right efd I understand. very sorry
	10:06pm slugluv1313: wonderful show, efd! always look forward to your Disco-Ball-Dance-Party Extravaganza! and i gotta ask again -- is it just me, or does anyone else hear Mary Jane Girls' "In My House" in First Choice's (earlier!) "Great Expectations"?
	10:06pm steve: you know how to do it efd, great mix every year...
	10:07pm Lonely Planet Boy: enjoying the show
	10:09pm cheri: but efd , again it is a great party, i'm having fun!
	10:10pm johnk77: the mets just lost but @efd is still winning
	10:13pm #4: I have made like 5 or 6 costume changes ALREADY. and everything WAY too tight..... !!! Where is my Tom Collins at?
	10:14pm Ike & Ram: Agreed @johnk77. EFD is a rock star of disco & comments.
	10:19pm Lonely Planet Boy: almost posted this earlier with "Robin" in mind - love the string sections in 70's pop.
	10:19pm cheri: I must check out now efd, thanks for your time, see you next week!
	10:21pm Dr. Goot: Everybody Bus Stop!
	10:23pm efd: yes, me too LPB! #4, keep the costume changes going! Maybe that Tom Collins is over by the closet.
	10:23pm efd: goodnight cheri, see you again I'm sure.
	10:24pm Erella: I love this show! Thank you.
	10:24pm efd: My pleasure, Erella!
	10:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: Love the show. My son asks if it's possible to hear some Village People.
	10:31pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: Ha! You can’t hear the Village People! You feel them throughout your whole body! Silly kids.
	10:33pm efd: KenFHP, that is a perfectly fine request that I am going to have to deny because, for some reason, I didn't bring any of my Village People records! >:(
	10:36pm efd: coming up next is the always popular -- or at least always baffling -- Classic Rock Disco segment!
	10:37pm Kat in Chicago: Might be time to get off the floor and head to the bar for a cocktail, then ;)
	10:40pm steve: heck yeah the break... i still can't believe its the guy from Lime.
	10:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Heh, no problem. We can scan the archives or the internet at large for some VP. What could possibly go wrong with that?
	10:43pm steve: "they only have five songs"
	10:46pm Kat in Chicago: Wow this is a whole new level of awful
	10:46pm Kat in Chicago: Make that cocktail a double, please
	10:46pm Stevel: So awful that I will cherish every Beatle-tastic note. Can't Look. Away.
	10:46pm melinda: What an ingenious Beatles treatment!
	10:47pm Ike: Agreed, @Stevel!
	10:47pm Kat in Chicago: Oh I'm hatelistening so hard right now
	10:47pm melinda: It only gets better.
	10:47pm efd: The really amazing thing is that this cut is 10 minutes and 10 seconds long!
	10:48pm Stevel: Oh. My God.
	10:49pm Stevel: Every fucking Beatles hit. EVERY ONE!!!!
	10:49pm efd: I might fade it after the fourth "Hey Jude."
	10:49pm efd: But I can't guarantee you're going to like what's next any better.
	10:49pm Stevel: "Penny Lane" just gave me whiplash.
	10:50pm steve: haha it just keeps going. its awful and yet i cant look away.
	10:51pm BadGuyZero: ♫♫ Singing with The Beatles ♫♫
	10:51pm efd: Admit it, it's growing on you isn't it?!
	10:51pm Danne D: Hi EFD :) Hi Everyone :)
	10:52pm efd: sorry folks, we're hearing the whole thing.
	10:52pm Stevel: Growing like a rash! LALALALALALALALALALALALA Oh God, Danne. You're just in time!
	10:53pm Danne D: clearly, Stevel :)
	10:53pm Weems: Correction: This song is 10 minutes 10 seconds TOO long
	10:53pm Danne D: So Evan, is there a disco version of Devastator coming up later?
	10:54pm #4: Beatles on disco 45
	10:54pm Stevel: Intervention time for efd. Disco Devastator for the head-exploding win.
	10:54pm Andrew S: If it's the same album I have, there are two more cuts just like it! They didn't overlook too many Beatles tracks
	10:56pm Stevel: Wow. Wow.
	10:56pm Dr. Goot: Pistols next? - www.youtube.com...
	10:56pm Kat in Chicago: ACTUALLY WORSE THAN THE BEATLES MEDLEY
	10:58pm Stevel: Hold on, Kat. (Not sure why. Obviously, there is no hope.)
	10:58pm Ike: Disagreed, this is much more tolerable! If Irwin ever brings back Incorrect Music, we'll have to make sure he knows about that Beatles medley.
	10:59pm efd: I took mercy on you guys and put back the disco version of "You Shook Me All Night Long."
	10:59pm steve: i wonder what Gaylord has to say about the disco beatles
	11:00pm Weems: You're wasting valuable time with this nonsense! 60 second samples would suffice. In an hour when you are wishing you had more time to get more tracks on, remember this set.
	11:00pm Stevel: One day at a time, efd. One day at a time. We're all proud of you.
	11:01pm efd: Andrew S, yes, that's the record!
	11:01pm efd: Weems, I was just thinking that exact thing as I realized it's 11 o'clock already!
	11:06pm JakeGould: I can’t think of something more appropriate for WFMU than a Beatles disco medley. MORE AND DON’t APOLOGIZE!
	11:07pm melinda: Jake I agree! If you can't play it here, where then?
	11:08pm melinda: Though I think one Beatles medley per dance party is sufficient.
	11:08pm steve: agreed Jake. the bealtes medley was so completely over the top insane on so many levels that im glad i heard it.
	11:10pm JakeGould: @melinda and @steve: It was also very well made and thought out. Nothing half-assed. Café Creme’s full ass went into that medley.
	11:10pm Andrew S: at least it wasn't stars on 45 ;) And I'm enjoying this show immensely. That Cafe Creme album got lots of spin in Quebec, there are copies kicking around all over the place
	11:12pm BadGuyZero: A few months ago Therese played a disco song called "Soul Dracula" and it was amazing and sort of terrible and I want to figure out how much I would have to pledge for Yo La Tengo to play it during next year's marathon.
	11:13pm melinda: Disco-fied interpretations of non-disco songs are an important part of the genre.
	11:14pm steve: Choking on Cufflinks did a great Halloween Disco show way back. think it was one of his last shows.
	11:19pm JakeGould: Ladies and gentlemen, the lyrics for that specific Café Creme disco medley are online: Singing with the Beatles Dancing on the disco Twisting in the sixties Ahahahaaa... lyrics.wikia.com...
	11:20pm efd: There's also a whole song on that album called "Twistin' In The Sixties" that I didn't listen to but I bet I know what it sounds like.
	11:22pm JakeGould: More details on the production of it can be gleaned here: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:22pm Andrew S: could be a departure - but I doubt it ;)
	11:23pm Danne D: @BGZ - $100 unless the price goes up. Call early, friend :)
	11:25pm JakeGould: Found this in “Survey of American Popular Music” on the web: “Cafe Creme--"Discomania" (1978): a muzak-like medley of thirty-five Beatles songs within a ten-minute time span; it removed the aura of pomposity surrounding the Fab Four, restoring them to their original condition as alluring pop music interpreters.” www.shsu.edu...
	11:28pm steve: anyone know any good disco books besides Love Saves the Day and Disco Files?
	11:31pm BadGuyZero: Cafe Creme's "Discomania" lasted longer than the entire Broadway run of "Got Tu Go Disco."
	11:31pm Andrew S: There was a video making the rounds not long ago that mashed footage of the "disco sucks" record demolitions and footage of english rave scenes, with some early chicago house music. pretty cool i think it was called disco sukkks
	11:31pm efd: haha BGZ!
	11:33pm JakeGould: You all know about July 12, 1979? Also known as the Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey Park? www.youtube.com...
	11:35pm Kat in Chicago: Do I ever. Although I wasn't actually there.
	11:35pm JakeGould: I was 11 years old and happy to have been a kid during all of the mishegas of the 1970s.
	11:36pm Danne D: I remember my older brother wearing an iron-on Disco Sucks shirt quite religiously.
	11:38pm Andrew S: haha Danne D I'd love one of those. Not because i agree with the sentiment but because an iron-on disco sucks shirt just rules
	11:38pm efd: don't tell me that horn part just now didn't give you "Hey Jude" flashbacks.
	11:39pm Andrew S: i'd walk around with that and nunchuks
	11:40pm efd: When I was in high school in the '70s I went to a t-shirt store and had them make me a mustard-yellow shirt with black transfer letters that said "Disco Sucks." My Mom wouldn't let me wear it.
	11:40pm melinda: I was 8 in 1979 and didn't understand the disco hate. Weird adult stuff.
	11:41pm Andrew S: oh mustard yellow, perfect. Somebody get on this
	11:41pm JakeGould: Jacksons!
	11:43pm Andrew S: The people that were screeching disco sucks were listening to Kansas and Molly Hatchet
	11:43pm rw: Dude, that Beatles medley was fucking awesome!! I just never need to hear it again.
	11:44pm JakeGould: @AndrewS: They also spent a lot of time noodling on their guitars on the weekends and asking you to come over and listen to them.
	11:44pm efd: well put, rw!
	11:45pm efd: Andrew, for me it was more of a "well if I'm pro-punk I must be anti-disco" thing. I eventually got past that stage, needless to say.
	11:45pm Andrew S: exactly Jake. There's no hell like being with your hesher musician friends and being the only guy without an instrument
	11:45pm JakeGould: @efd: The only CD versions of Cafe Creme seem to come from Russia. So I guess I’m going to do some browsing in Russian CD shops.
	11:48pm Andrew S: cant go wrong with russian cds
	11:48pm Michael from the Left Coast: The great Dorothy Moore!
	11:49pm JakeGould: Great show EFD! Kudos to you and your disco selections.
	11:49pm efd: I'm not much for her ballads, but man do I love this song!
	11:51pm steve: love this one
	11:51pm Weems: Funk?really? You was a hater? Attended many teen discos in the 70s This was my music. Saw the Jacksons in 77. And Kool
	11:51pm efd: It's true, Weems! Like I said, I got over it.
	11:52pm Andrew S: yeah nice guitar licks too. noticed that on the Chanson tune too
	11:52pm BadGuyZero: In Russia CD shops for you.
	11:55pm efd: I also didn't go to teen dances of any kind, so that probably didn't help.
	11:58pm Danne D: Yup some peer pressure involved in the Disco Sucks thing - some of it a socioeconomic identity too for some folks I bet. Thanks for a great show EFD :D Have a good night everyone :)
	12:00am rw: EFD, It's okay. Disco did kind of suck in the '70s. Thanks for the show tonight!!
	12:01am Kat in Chicago: Thanks Evan!

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 18th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!
Wed. Dec 25th, Noon - 3pm: The 18th Annual Holiday Music Funktacular! (More info...)

August 19, 2015: The 7th Annual Evan "Funk" Davies Disco and/or Dance Party Show!

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

Summertime always reminds me of listening to Ken "Spider" Webb and Ricky Ricardo and, of course the Chief Rocker Frankie Crocker on WBLS. So when summer rolls around I start itching to play my favorite records from that era (give or take a few years) -- favorites I loved back then, and new favorites that I never heard back in the day.
In that spirit, I'm excited to bring you the 7th annual Evan "Funk" Davies Disco and/or Dance Party! It's three hours of classic dance and disco jams from the '70s and early '80s, plus some lost shoulda-been-hits that just might become your new faves. Hook up the disco ball, pull the rug back, and tell the downstairs neighbors to go out to the movies (or just invite them up!) because you'll be wearing out your boogie shoes tonight!

=======================================
Disco/dance disclaimer! I'm keeping the lines blurry and using "disco" and "dance" as catch-all terms for my own take on fun dance music from the mid-70s to the early '80s, expanding the boundaries (and sound) of the traditional disco era. No griping, please!

	9:31pm Clenny the Carp: BOATMAN, COATMAN BETTER THAN THE GOATMAN, PUT HIM OUT TO SEA AND WATCH THAT SUCKA FLOAT MAN...
	9:31pm cheri: ike, why are you starting trouble? i'm here to have fun!
	9:32pm JustSheaNo: Hey, @efd, awesome as usual! what are my chances of hearing The Whispers or maybe even Dennis Edwards?
	9:33pm cheri: efd, i'm really enjoying the dance party
	9:34pm efd: JustSheaNo, your chances of hearing the Whispers are much higher than Dennis Edwards, I can say that!
	9:34pm efd: thank you cheri.
	9:35pm Clenny the Carp: SET IT OFF ON THAT CLEFT PALATE.
	9:38pm JakeGould: No nonsense on the dance floor… Unless it’s consensual.
	9:40pm Clenny the Carp: UNLESS IT'S CONSENSUAL BELLYBUTTON SODOMY
	9:42pm Clenny the Carp: OR AT LEAST A DISCREET NIPPLE IN THE URETHRA
	9:44pm Weems: I used to work at the NYPL with the brother of the Peech Boys singer, Bernard Fowler!
	9:47pm JustSheaNo: Woohoo putting my dancing shoes on!
	9:52pm efd: Weems, that is awesome!
	9:53pm cheri: efd would you say i'm across between a disco diva or a dancing queen?
	9:58pm steve: nice one! never heard this one before...
	9:59pm efd: Cool, thanks steve! Hardest damn thing about this show every year is balancing the cool new stuff I've picked up with the classics (EFD classics, anyway) that I can't get enough of.
	10:00pm cheri: efd, it's ok you don't have to answer my question.
	10:01pm efd: It's an inane question, cheri. And I don't need your permission not to answer it.
	10:03pm Kat in Chicago: EFD's disco dance party is one party I don't like being late to. Finally made it!
	10:03pm Mary: @cheri Get some counseling
	10:04pm efd: Glad you got here, Kat! Still 2/3rds of the party left!
	10:05pm cheri: you're right efd I understand. very sorry
	10:06pm slugluv1313: wonderful show, efd! always look forward to your Disco-Ball-Dance-Party Extravaganza! and i gotta ask again -- is it just me, or does anyone else hear Mary Jane Girls' "In My House" in First Choice's (earlier!) "Great Expectations"?
	10:06pm steve: you know how to do it efd, great mix every year...
	10:07pm Lonely Planet Boy: enjoying the show
	10:09pm cheri: but efd , again it is a great party, i'm having fun!
	10:10pm johnk77: the mets just lost but @efd is still winning
	10:13pm #4: I have made like 5 or 6 costume changes ALREADY. and everything WAY too tight..... !!! Where is my Tom Collins at?
	10:14pm Ike & Ram: Agreed @johnk77. EFD is a rock star of disco & comments.
	10:19pm Lonely Planet Boy: almost posted this earlier with "Robin" in mind - love the string sections in 70's pop.
	10:19pm cheri: I must check out now efd, thanks for your time, see you next week!
	10:21pm Dr. Goot: Everybody Bus Stop!
	10:23pm efd: yes, me too LPB! #4, keep the costume changes going! Maybe that Tom Collins is over by the closet.
	10:23pm efd: goodnight cheri, see you again I'm sure.
	10:24pm Erella: I love this show! Thank you.
	10:24pm efd: My pleasure, Erella!
	10:29pm Ken From Hyde Park: Love the show. My son asks if it's possible to hear some Village People.
	10:31pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: Ha! You can’t hear the Village People! You feel them throughout your whole body! Silly kids.
	10:33pm efd: KenFHP, that is a perfectly fine request that I am going to have to deny because, for some reason, I didn't bring any of my Village People records! >:(
	10:36pm efd: coming up next is the always popular -- or at least always baffling -- Classic Rock Disco segment!
	10:37pm Kat in Chicago: Might be time to get off the floor and head to the bar for a cocktail, then ;)
	10:40pm steve: heck yeah the break... i still can't believe its the guy from Lime.
	10:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Heh, no problem. We can scan the archives or the internet at large for some VP. What could possibly go wrong with that?
	10:43pm steve: "they only have five songs"
	10:46pm Kat in Chicago: Wow this is a whole new level of awful
	10:46pm Kat in Chicago: Make that cocktail a double, please
	10:46pm Stevel: So awful that I will cherish every Beatle-tastic note. Can't Look. Away.
	10:46pm melinda: What an ingenious Beatles treatment!
	10:47pm Ike: Agreed, @Stevel!
	10:47pm Kat in Chicago: Oh I'm hatelistening so hard right now
	10:47pm melinda: It only gets better.
	10:47pm efd: The really amazing thing is that this cut is 10 minutes and 10 seconds long!
	10:48pm Stevel: Oh. My God.
	10:49pm Stevel: Every fucking Beatles hit. EVERY ONE!!!!
	10:49pm efd: I might fade it after the fourth "Hey Jude."
	10:49pm efd: But I can't guarantee you're going to like what's next any better.
	10:49pm Stevel: "Penny Lane" just gave me whiplash.
	10:50pm steve: haha it just keeps going. its awful and yet i cant look away.
	10:51pm BadGuyZero: ♫♫ Singing with The Beatles ♫♫
	10:51pm efd: Admit it, it's growing on you isn't it?!
	10:51pm Danne D: Hi EFD :) Hi Everyone :)
	10:52pm efd: sorry folks, we're hearing the whole thing.
	10:52pm Stevel: Growing like a rash! LALALALALALALALALALALALA Oh God, Danne. You're just in time!
	10:53pm Danne D: clearly, Stevel :)
	10:53pm Weems: Correction: This song is 10 minutes 10 seconds TOO long
	10:53pm Danne D: So Evan, is there a disco version of Devastator coming up later?
	10:54pm #4: Beatles on disco 45
	10:54pm Stevel: Intervention time for efd. Disco Devastator for the head-exploding win.
	10:54pm Andrew S: If it's the same album I have, there are two more cuts just like it! They didn't overlook too many Beatles tracks
	10:56pm Stevel: Wow. Wow.
	10:56pm Dr. Goot: Pistols next? - www.youtube.com...
	10:56pm Kat in Chicago: ACTUALLY WORSE THAN THE BEATLES MEDLEY
	10:58pm Stevel: Hold on, Kat. (Not sure why. Obviously, there is no hope.)
	10:58pm Ike: Disagreed, this is much more tolerable! If Irwin ever brings back Incorrect Music, we'll have to make sure he knows about that Beatles medley.
	10:59pm efd: I took mercy on you guys and put back the disco version of "You Shook Me All Night Long."
	10:59pm steve: i wonder what Gaylord has to say about the disco beatles
	11:00pm Weems: You're wasting valuable time with this nonsense! 60 second samples would suffice. In an hour when you are wishing you had more time to get more tracks on, remember this set.
	11:00pm Stevel: One day at a time, efd. One day at a time. We're all proud of you.
	11:01pm efd: Andrew S, yes, that's the record!
	11:01pm efd: Weems, I was just thinking that exact thing as I realized it's 11 o'clock already!
	11:06pm JakeGould: I can’t think of something more appropriate for WFMU than a Beatles disco medley. MORE AND DON’t APOLOGIZE!
	11:07pm melinda: Jake I agree! If you can't play it here, where then?
	11:08pm melinda: Though I think one Beatles medley per dance party is sufficient.
	11:08pm steve: agreed Jake. the bealtes medley was so completely over the top insane on so many levels that im glad i heard it.
	11:10pm JakeGould: @melinda and @steve: It was also very well made and thought out. Nothing half-assed. Café Creme’s full ass went into that medley.
	11:10pm Andrew S: at least it wasn't stars on 45 ;) And I'm enjoying this show immensely. That Cafe Creme album got lots of spin in Quebec, there are copies kicking around all over the place
	11:12pm BadGuyZero: A few months ago Therese played a disco song called "Soul Dracula" and it was amazing and sort of terrible and I want to figure out how much I would have to pledge for Yo La Tengo to play it during next year's marathon.
	11:13pm melinda: Disco-fied interpretations of non-disco songs are an important part of the genre.
	11:14pm steve: Choking on Cufflinks did a great Halloween Disco show way back. think it was one of his last shows.
	11:19pm JakeGould: Ladies and gentlemen, the lyrics for that specific Café Creme disco medley are online: Singing with the Beatles Dancing on the disco Twisting in the sixties Ahahahaaa... lyrics.wikia.com...
	11:20pm efd: There's also a whole song on that album called "Twistin' In The Sixties" that I didn't listen to but I bet I know what it sounds like.
	11:22pm JakeGould: More details on the production of it can be gleaned here: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:22pm Andrew S: could be a departure - but I doubt it ;)
	11:23pm Danne D: @BGZ - $100 unless the price goes up. Call early, friend :)
	11:25pm JakeGould: Found this in “Survey of American Popular Music” on the web: “Cafe Creme--"Discomania" (1978): a muzak-like medley of thirty-five Beatles songs within a ten-minute time span; it removed the aura of pomposity surrounding the Fab Four, restoring them to their original condition as alluring pop music interpreters.” www.shsu.edu...
	11:28pm steve: anyone know any good disco books besides Love Saves the Day and Disco Files?
	11:31pm BadGuyZero: Cafe Creme's "Discomania" lasted longer than the entire Broadway run of "Got Tu Go Disco."
	11:31pm Andrew S: There was a video making the rounds not long ago that mashed footage of the "disco sucks" record demolitions and footage of english rave scenes, with some early chicago house music. pretty cool i think it was called disco sukkks
	11:31pm efd: haha BGZ!
	11:33pm JakeGould: You all know about July 12, 1979? Also known as the Disco Demolition Night at Comiskey Park? www.youtube.com...
	11:35pm Kat in Chicago: Do I ever. Although I wasn't actually there.
	11:35pm JakeGould: I was 11 years old and happy to have been a kid during all of the mishegas of the 1970s.
	11:36pm Danne D: I remember my older brother wearing an iron-on Disco Sucks shirt quite religiously.
	11:38pm Andrew S: haha Danne D I'd love one of those. Not because i agree with the sentiment but because an iron-on disco sucks shirt just rules
	11:38pm efd: don't tell me that horn part just now didn't give you "Hey Jude" flashbacks.
	11:39pm Andrew S: i'd walk around with that and nunchuks
	11:40pm efd: When I was in high school in the '70s I went to a t-shirt store and had them make me a mustard-yellow shirt with black transfer letters that said "Disco Sucks." My Mom wouldn't let me wear it.
	11:40pm melinda: I was 8 in 1979 and didn't understand the disco hate. Weird adult stuff.
	11:41pm Andrew S: oh mustard yellow, perfect. Somebody get on this
	11:41pm JakeGould: Jacksons!
	11:43pm Andrew S: The people that were screeching disco sucks were listening to Kansas and Molly Hatchet
	11:43pm rw: Dude, that Beatles medley was fucking awesome!! I just never need to hear it again.
	11:44pm JakeGould: @AndrewS: They also spent a lot of time noodling on their guitars on the weekends and asking you to come over and listen to them.
	11:44pm efd: well put, rw!
	11:45pm efd: Andrew, for me it was more of a "well if I'm pro-punk I must be anti-disco" thing. I eventually got past that stage, needless to say.
	11:45pm Andrew S: exactly Jake. There's no hell like being with your hesher musician friends and being the only guy without an instrument
	11:45pm JakeGould: @efd: The only CD versions of Cafe Creme seem to come from Russia. So I guess I’m going to do some browsing in Russian CD shops.
	11:48pm Andrew S: cant go wrong with russian cds
	11:48pm Michael from the Left Coast: The great Dorothy Moore!
	11:49pm JakeGould: Great show EFD! Kudos to you and your disco selections.
	11:49pm efd: I'm not much for her ballads, but man do I love this song!
	11:51pm steve: love this one
	11:51pm Weems: Funk?really? You was a hater? Attended many teen discos in the 70s This was my music. Saw the Jacksons in 77. And Kool
	11:51pm efd: It's true, Weems! Like I said, I got over it.
	11:52pm Andrew S: yeah nice guitar licks too. noticed that on the Chanson tune too
	11:52pm BadGuyZero: In Russia CD shops for you.
	11:55pm efd: I also didn't go to teen dances of any kind, so that probably didn't help.
	11:58pm Danne D: Yup some peer pressure involved in the Disco Sucks thing - some of it a socioeconomic identity too for some folks I bet. Thanks for a great show EFD :D Have a good night everyone :)
	12:00am rw: EFD, It's okay. Disco did kind of suck in the '70s. Thanks for the show tonight!!
	12:01am Kat in Chicago: Thanks Evan!
