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.

john:
Get Down! Brilliant! Gosh, I miss the '70s. Nobody does songs about dogs any more, or at least ones that make the top 10. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:18pm
Joe:
Gilbert O'Sullivan... that, Mr. Funkdavies, is a tenuous link, at best. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:20pm
efd:
cone on, he's Irish! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilbert_O'Sullivan | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:22pm

**that should be come on, not cone on. now ,A-Bones or House of Pain-- *that's* tenuous! | |

evan,,,,ROCK ON!!!!! play more 70s | |

john:
If you play Shannon, you get my whole 51st anniversary pledge next year. DEFINITELY nobody does songs about Carl Wilson's dog drowning any more. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:32pm
John McCabe:
please mention that green clovers or other stupid pieces of paper pined to your shirt does not count you must wear a green article of clothing | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:41pm
Laurie:
Oof. This Neil Young song is not so good. I think that can be said about nearly every Neil Young song, but this one in particular is bad. It's giving me the lulz. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:42pm
efd:
damn, Laurie, you're on to me! | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:46pm
Laurie:
It's okay, Evan. This James White song is my jam. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:46pm
John McCabe:
ok that Neil Young song sounded like he was "phoning it in" but Neil is the king of rock n' roll from 2000-2002 that all I would play | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:47pm
mary jane:
Yes! Contort Yourself still sounds great!! | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:47pm
Laurie:
Wait, isn't this James Chance?? Am I confused? | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:50pm
mary jane:
Yep but he changed his name to suit his purposes. Including using James White. And of course the band The Contortions. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:52pm
Joe:
Nope, Texas | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:54pm
Laurie:
I am almost positive that "Contort Yourself" was released under James Chance & the Contortions. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:55pm
Tim Serpas:
"What Made..." is from Austin, TX | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:57pm
Randy in NC:
efd, you are correct. The original version of Contort... was James Chance and the Contortions. This version was certainly smoother. My memory tells me that the Blacks became the Raybeats. | |
|
Mon. 3/17/08 11:59pm
Laurie:
I'm relatively young. I should just get points for knowing of James Chance. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:05am
Laurie:
Oh, also, the linguist in me wants to inform you that it's pronounced DED-uh-lus. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:07am
efd:
thanks for the info, Joe & TIm! Laurie, I wholeheartedly agree regarding knowing who James Chance is in the first place. I also thought it was DED-uhlus, but I've heard a couple of others say DAYdulus so I wonder if the artist has a "special" pronunciation. Randy, is that the case? I can't recall... I thought of them as contemporaries, but I think there was some overlap between members now that you mention it. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:18am
a chick:
efd-i sent you mail. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:27am
Randy in NC:
efd, it could be that the Blacks were the Raybeats when they played w/o James White/Chance. I know I saw them both around the same time period. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:31am
efd:
Randy, looks like you are indeed on the right track - see http://www.raybeats.net/?page_id=3 (And Laurie, that page has some helpful James Chance/White/Black info as well.) | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:46am
Joe:
This is the bounce I didn't even know I was craving. Thank you. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:48am
Randy in NC:
http://www.allsparks.com May 16 through June 7 Sounds exhausting. But fun! | |
|

Randy in NC:
All 21 shows are 350 Pounds. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 12:55am
efd:
damn, that's a lot of pounds! Joe, glad you dug that Junc Ops. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:01am
mary jane:
One day will you play The Bush Tetras "Too Many Creeps" . The uber cool Pat Place was in the Contortions and the Bush Tetras. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:03am
mary jane:
That is, Pat Place IS in The Bush Tetras. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:07am
Laurie:
Thanks for playing Junc Ops, by the way. Miami's music scene is lackluster for the most part. It's been mostly downhill since L'Trimm split up. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:08am
Joe:
Hopefully he won't bail like Masta Ace did! He lots alot of points with me for that... my man Noah is too cool for that shit... | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:18am
mary jane:
Had not heard of Liliput...and since I like the BTetras...I wondered who Liliput is/was...looked it up...you are way cool,efd. Thank you for taking a request to a very fine place! | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 1:35am
efd:
Mary Jane, it's my pleasure to have introduced you to Kleenex / Liliput. I highly recommend that 2CD set if you want to hear more. | |
|
Tue. 3/18/08 7:17pm
Joe B:
I am officially going on record as saying Jellyroll Man is a GREAT song/performance! | |
|
Wed. 3/19/08 11:27am

this from the DJ whose name comes up more than any other when doing a playlist search for "Neil Young!" :-) | |
