Options The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from March 10, 2008 Options

efd's avatar View efd's profile Options

Every show starts with a cut from the ‘70s: Rediscovering the forgotten rockers, revisiting the once-hated disco beats, replaying the power-pop favorites. Next: copious amounts of new releases and occasional live bands. Also: I’m the biggest Nick Gilder fan on WFMU.

On WFMU | Wednesdays 9pm - Midnight (EDT) | 91.1, 90.1, 91.9 FM & wfmu.org

Mike Lupica: OK smart guy, let's hear your complicated opinions about the Chiefs of Relief!
EFD: I never heard of them! But their very brief wikipedia entry sounds intriguing.
ML: WHUUUHH?? Evan, get a hold of yourself and stop blowing your credentials out of the water. For you to not have heard of the Chiefs of Relief is like me never having heard of breathing. They are like the Godfathers meets the Art of Noise meets Malcolm McLaren's "Duck Rock" LP + Paul Cook from the Sex Pistols (who plays drums for them.)
I will give you one of their records.

And so he did.  		1988    2:51:08 (Real)

Regarding Bram Tchaikovsky, Hip-O-Select put on the remastered version of the CD back in December with the original 11 tracks. However, another UK site

http://www.heavymetalkids.co.uk/bram.htm

lists a remastered version with bonus tracks

You can check it out if you like
