The Evan "Funk" Davies Show:
Playlist
from August 22, 2012
View efd's profile
|
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.

Won Triumvirate's "Illusions on a Double Dimple" on a radio station giveaway when I was a wee bairn. When the package finally arrived, what was in it but the spectacular Carol Douglas lp, "Dr.'s Orders.". It didn't go over at the time, but in hindsight I probably made out ok.: | |

Evan, thank you so much! That made my night! I used to love that song and we had it on vinyl when we were kids! | |

This Bang The Party thing is insane. Not as insane as a Hungarian version of "Sound of Summer". But pretty out there nonetheless. | |
