	9:13pm Holly in NC: fleep! New carnivorous sex-mad killing machine avatar! ;-)
	9:13pm Richard from Venezuela: Happy 2014 to Evan and all the listeners. I just heard the last michael monroe's record. A solid release.
	♥ 9:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: "I will crush your head," from the tennis ladder sketch from Kids In The Hall is one I'll always remember.
	9:21pm Droll: Carnivorous sex? Mad killing? Machine avatar? I want to see what Holly sees!
	9:22pm fleep: fleep tosses Holly a fish .....,....,.><>
	9:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...we are the Daves you know you know...
	♥ 9:23pm BDR: Re: KITH - was all new material? My apologies if I misheard what you said.
	♥ 9:24pm efd: Hey everyone! Thanks so much for joining me on this holiday night - I'll try to make it worth your while! Happy New Year!
	♥ 9:24pm Stevel: Are you telling me there's never been a band named "Carnivorous Sex"? [debating merits of said moniker and its powers for good and evil.]
	9:26pm Joe B: Happy new year efd!
	♥ 9:26pm Stevel: Who the hell were Rodion G.A., and why do I not know about them? WHY?!
	9:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...2013 was really my 1st year tuning into FMU & plaguing it's boards - & - I have not the words for efd & All who've brought me so very much Music, Culture & Community. It's what it's all about mahhn - Thank You. HNY.
	♥ 9:28pm Lonely Planet Boy: First heard of Rodion in 2013, so it wasn't too bad of a year.
	9:30pm Holly in NC: @stevel - aquarius records had a decent writeup www.aquariusrecords.org...
	9:32pm nanantatee: love love love it!
	9:32pm Holly in NC: efd, thank you for noting the Dentists, this reissue hasn't been getting the love it deserves (imho). And I love everyrthing else you've played as well.
	♥ 9:33pm Uncle Michael: I knew Giorgio would make the cut.
	9:33pm Dave B: HMFNY EFD!
	9:34pm nanantatee: i knew about the strawberries but not the tangerines
	9:36pm Holly in NC: @nanantatee - :-)
	9:39pm Joe B: dentists, that is a great one. Missed that LP back in the day
	9:40pm ADL: "Regular listeners will know..." Very few of the listeners here are what I'd call regular.
	9:41pm john: Not that I'm really a fan or anything, but it was the most important football match in English history: the 1966 World Cup final at Wembley, after which the sun set on English soccer as well.
	9:41pm Eddy in Australia: The 1966 World Cup final - the most important match in English football history!
	9:42pm Eddy in Australia: Welcome back, Evan. Happy New Year to you and all the listeners.
	♥ 9:42pm efd: Alright, alright!
	9:45pm fleep: More fiber takes care of that.
	9:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...coffee & walking everywhere yeah...
	♥ 9:48pm Lonely Planet Boy: had not heard The Jook until '13. So '13 even better.
	9:49pm Holly in NC: In a perfect world, there'd be 2 more slots for efd-friendly reissues, to include Chance's 'In Season' and Sweet Madness's 'Made in Spokane'.
	♥ 9:50pm Stevel: RRN63: Right on, re the great debt owed to efd and, I might say, Joe B. Two wonderful DJ's who are, dare I say, loved well by their listeners for all they do. [Ho, ho, ho, Auld Lang Syne, etc.]
	♥ 9:51pm Lonely Planet Boy: re-issue countdown is a good shopping list :)
	9:56pm Holly in NC: I so love this 7'' (east link)
	♥ 9:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Paul Bruno filled in for Terre T last Saturday and had a 2013 best-of show - www.wfmu.org...
	10:00pm JakeGould: Wow, this version of “Do It Clean” is great. Thanks!
	♥ 10:03pm Stevel: I heartily second the Paul Bruno fill in. (and any Mike Sin appearance) And HOW BOUT that Ira The K fill in last week? Very nice stuff.
	10:04pm Holly in NC: @Stevel - Third all of above, also any Nate the K fill in!
	10:11pm Holly in NC: Confused - why does this super soda fraise not count as a reissue?
	♥ 10:12pm efd: Because it's a 7" -- arbitrary, I admit, but that's just the way I do it.
	10:12pm JakeGould: Holly, is the musical law being broken?
	10:13pm PB: This Proto Idiot sounds like a lot of those old NZ bands that recorded on Flying Nun back in the day.
	10:13pm Holly in NC: @JakeGould - this is efd's world, his word is law!
	10:14pm JakeGould: I AM THEEE LAWWWRRRR!
	♥ 10:14pm Stevel: All hail efd, and his infinite, gentle wisdom.
	♥ 10:15pm Stevel: Are Zero Boys touring?
	♥ 10:16pm 12539: "ca baigne dans l'huile" means things are going well.
	10:17pm Holly in NC: Frontier's "and more" includes Thin White Rope, among others. Lisa Fancher is so cool!
	♥ 10:19pm Julie: Happy Funkin' New Year, Evan!
	♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: Man, I loved Thin White Rope way back when.
	♥ 10:24pm Stevel: Why do I think this will not be the only Gap Dream appearance? GD is a very dynamic musical operation. Loved the seamless set a few months back.
	10:24pm earrie: Literally 'that bathes in oil' (?)
	♥ 10:24pm efd: Joe B, if you're still out there, let's include "may the DJ before you never set the default search engine to Wikipedia" in your Harry Harrison poem next year.
	10:25pm earrie: Or 'swimming in grease' ? Tout baigne dans l'huile.
	♥ 10:29pm Uncle Michael: Harry Harrison poem?
	10:30pm Holly in NC: Is there any way to purchase The Big Believe other than itunes? I don't do itunes.
	10:35pm steve: Empty Avenues, GREAT choice. the Pye Corner Audio remix is amazing too
	♥ 10:35pm efd: Amanda, I'm not sure - I'll see what I can find out.
	10:35pm Droll: Holly, Just pay your entertainment re-distribution fee to Apple, it's the 2014 way.
	10:35pm Loretta: Happy New Year!!!!!! Evan, I'm enjoying the show immensely!
	10:36pm fleep: Production on Empty Avenues is just great, the sound jumps out at you.
	10:36pm Holly in NC: xo Empty Avenues xo Amanda??!!
	♥ 10:37pm Julie: Holly are you wearing your Amanda hat again?
	♥ 10:37pm 12539: Holly: vinyl from www.thebigbelieve.com...
	10:38pm Eddy in Australia: +1 on Holly (aka Amanda!)'s request for The Big Believe. A 7" would be great.
	10:39pm Eddy in Australia: Done! Thanks, 12539
	♥ 10:39pm 12539: Hollyamanda: That URL came out weird, but there's a button on the Big Beieve site.
	♥ 10:41pm efd: sorry Holly, I was thinking of Amanda from The Big Believe when I was typing (and I wasn't paying attention to what I was writing!).
	10:45pm Droll: [dinner interruption to comment on industrial music] !!!!!! [back to dinner]
	♥ 10:47pm efd: Michael, to belatedly answer your question - Joe B was talking on his show about collaborating with Dave The Spazz on an updated/WFMU-centric version of Harry Harrison's traditional Xmas/year-end blessings. Maybe not a poem exactly.
	♥ 10:50pm Uncle Michael: I didn't grow up in Harry's listening area so my awareness of him doesn't include the blessings. I'm sad.
	10:51pm Holly in NC: Thank you 12539! Hi Julie! In the alternate Hollyamanda world where efd has more time & longer lists, I'd add Gino & the Goons 'Oh Yeah' 7'' & Lazy's 'Don't Die' 7''. Actually the song 'Don't Die' is meh, but the b-side, 'Soft Sheets' is AWESOME. Which makes me think of meh lps that have 1 great song, such as Gringo Star's Floating Out to See ('100 miles' = the 1 great song). And then there's a very good but not great lp with a brilliant song about lobster, and Boston, anong other things (White Mystery's 'Fun Times', on their Telepath lp)
	♥ 10:53pm Ken From Hyde Park: My Department Of Suggestions wants me to pass this on - Can you make tonight's songs a 2014 Marathon premium?
	♥ 11:01pm Uncle Michael: I'm enjoying the countdown, efd. I'm going to kill the lights and see how much of the last hour I can stay awake for. I'll have to catch the tail on the archive. Thanks for the show. Night all.
	11:01pm Joe B: ha! that is a good one evan. i think I gotta do that next year. I have been threatening to do it for years. maybe I already did it and forgot
	11:11pm neelc13: Great show as always, Evan. Happy new year
	11:14pm Holly in NC: "Flash of the Moment" is indeed 1 of the best songs ever
	11:16pm neelc13: I'm probably the only one who let out a hearty chuckle when efd said "Jerms with a J"
	♥ 11:19pm efd: I think I just said "Costa Brava" instead of Costa Blanca.
	11:23pm Droll: If the "Hot Lunch" sound becomes standard equipment in 2014, let me be the first to call 2014 an overdue renaissance.
	11:25pm Holly in NC: efd, I'd forgotten about Hot Lunch, thank you ever so much for reminding me!!
	11:26pm bothered selection: Am glad to see the kids still have good tasted in music. The new year isn't doomed after all. Heroic effort DJ Even "Funk" Davies.
	11:27pm Callieflower: Happy New Year, everybody! I accidentally fell asleep before the show started!
	♥ 11:32pm Stevel: I really, really want to see Wax Idols. www.youtube.com... Live "Stare Back" Not great audio or vid, but a straight cut of the tune. Intense? Yes.
	♥ 11:32pm efd: Hi Callie! Glad you got here before it was all over! And greetings, thanks, and happy new year to everyone commenting and everyone listening - I really appreciate it.
	♥ 11:35pm Fuzzy: Always dig listening Wed. nights 9 to midnight -- looking forward to more Totally Funkin' Awesome tunes in 2014!
	11:36pm RCinMT: Well, now I'm dying to know what got bumped out of #10 best album?
	♥ 11:37pm efd: RC, check this page tomorrow for the Bubbling Under lists! :D
	11:38pm Droll: Mellotron... but this is 2014!
	11:41pm Holly in NC: @droll, I am 100% sure we will here another lp heavy on the mellotron before this show is over ;-)
	11:41pm Holly in NC: HEAR. I am so tired, sorry.
	11:44pm Callieflower: Now to spend the first part of 2014 catching up on great albums I missed from 2013! Thanks for catching me up, Evan :)
	11:44pm Holly in NC: And here it is!
	♥ 11:44pm Stevel: "Heavy on the Mellotron, bartender."
	11:46pm Eddy in Australia: Gap Dream for the repeat!
	♥ 11:47pm efd: Now for many of you, the #2 LP is going to basically give away the #1 LP.
	♥ 11:48pm efd: Just cued up the #2 album and had a brief twinge of regret for not making it #1.
	♥ 11:49pm Stevel: OMD produced a wonderful album. No qualifiers.
	♥ 11:50pm Stevel: I'm surprised at #2 and I understand the twinge, but this was a tough year.
	11:52pm Droll: Stairway to Heaven deserves to be first! GD can try again next year...
	11:52pm Holly in NC: Well now I'm uncertain about #1, actually. I have 1 guess.
	♥ 11:52pm efd: This album is so great, but I can't deny that something about the #1 album just grabs me a certain way.
	♥ 11:55pm Stevel: "And now, at the top of the charts, grabbing us in that certain way..."
	11:55pm Holly in NC: Oh! I was soo wrong!
	♥ 11:56pm efd: what were you expecting, Holly?
	♥ 11:57pm 12539: Thanks for a great year of programming, efd.
	11:57pm Chris M.: free fall is on my best of list too and i believe i first heard them on this excellent program. thanks efd
	♥ 11:58pm efd: Hey Chris! You're welcome, and you're welcome too 12539. Thanks for listening everyone!
	♥ 11:58pm Stevel: Yes Holly...??
	11:59pm Droll: #1 is grabbing me in that AC/DC way. EFD is sooooo predictable! [which is why I tune in regularly]
	♥ 11:59pm Stevel: That is still an amazing scream.
	12:00am Holly in NC: E. pecting nothing after Gap Dream shock, but thought maybe Mantles? Also I really like Shocked Minds, Black Hollies, Endless Boogie & White Fence, but knew they wouldn't be your #1. And Pink Noise! And Life Stinks!
	12:00am Callieflower: Okay, that song is really fun

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from January 1, 2014

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. May 1st, Noon - 3pm: UV-TV (More info...)
UV-TV formed in Gainesville, Florida, in the mid-2010s, but by the turn of the decade they’d relocated to New York City. Their first release after moving to NYC, 2021’s Always Something, was one of EFD’s favorites of that year; they’ll play some songs from that album as well as some new songs from an upcoming release. Tune in for some post-punk jangle-drone!
Wed. May 22nd, Noon - 3pm: The Prof. Fuzz 63 (More info...)
The Prof. Fuzz 63 are a three-piece family band from just north of Dallas. They’re also literally a garage band. Their garage/practice space is adorned with photos of The Cramps, among others, and singer uses an old telephone handset for a mic. What else do you need to know? OK, they’re also playing May 22 at Berlin in NYC and May 23 at Finnegan’s in Hoboken.

	9:30pm Holly in NC: @stevel - aquarius records had a decent writeup www.aquariusrecords.org...
	9:32pm nanantatee: love love love it!
	9:32pm Holly in NC: efd, thank you for noting the Dentists, this reissue hasn't been getting the love it deserves (imho). And I love everyrthing else you've played as well.
	♥ 9:33pm Uncle Michael: I knew Giorgio would make the cut.
	9:33pm Dave B: HMFNY EFD!
	9:34pm nanantatee: i knew about the strawberries but not the tangerines
	9:36pm Holly in NC: @nanantatee - :-)
	9:39pm Joe B: dentists, that is a great one. Missed that LP back in the day
	9:40pm ADL: "Regular listeners will know..." Very few of the listeners here are what I'd call regular.
	9:41pm john: Not that I'm really a fan or anything, but it was the most important football match in English history: the 1966 World Cup final at Wembley, after which the sun set on English soccer as well.
	9:41pm Eddy in Australia: The 1966 World Cup final - the most important match in English football history!
	9:42pm Eddy in Australia: Welcome back, Evan. Happy New Year to you and all the listeners.
	♥ 9:42pm efd: Alright, alright!
	9:45pm fleep: More fiber takes care of that.
	9:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...coffee & walking everywhere yeah...
	♥ 9:48pm Lonely Planet Boy: had not heard The Jook until '13. So '13 even better.
	9:49pm Holly in NC: In a perfect world, there'd be 2 more slots for efd-friendly reissues, to include Chance's 'In Season' and Sweet Madness's 'Made in Spokane'.
	♥ 9:50pm Stevel: RRN63: Right on, re the great debt owed to efd and, I might say, Joe B. Two wonderful DJ's who are, dare I say, loved well by their listeners for all they do. [Ho, ho, ho, Auld Lang Syne, etc.]
	♥ 9:51pm Lonely Planet Boy: re-issue countdown is a good shopping list :)
	9:56pm Holly in NC: I so love this 7'' (east link)
	♥ 9:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Paul Bruno filled in for Terre T last Saturday and had a 2013 best-of show - www.wfmu.org...
	10:00pm JakeGould: Wow, this version of “Do It Clean” is great. Thanks!
	♥ 10:03pm Stevel: I heartily second the Paul Bruno fill in. (and any Mike Sin appearance) And HOW BOUT that Ira The K fill in last week? Very nice stuff.
	10:04pm Holly in NC: @Stevel - Third all of above, also any Nate the K fill in!
	10:11pm Holly in NC: Confused - why does this super soda fraise not count as a reissue?
	♥ 10:12pm efd: Because it's a 7" -- arbitrary, I admit, but that's just the way I do it.
	10:12pm JakeGould: Holly, is the musical law being broken?
	10:13pm PB: This Proto Idiot sounds like a lot of those old NZ bands that recorded on Flying Nun back in the day.
	10:13pm Holly in NC: @JakeGould - this is efd's world, his word is law!
	10:14pm JakeGould: I AM THEEE LAWWWRRRR!
	♥ 10:14pm Stevel: All hail efd, and his infinite, gentle wisdom.
	♥ 10:15pm Stevel: Are Zero Boys touring?
	♥ 10:16pm 12539: "ca baigne dans l'huile" means things are going well.
	10:17pm Holly in NC: Frontier's "and more" includes Thin White Rope, among others. Lisa Fancher is so cool!
	♥ 10:19pm Julie: Happy Funkin' New Year, Evan!
	♥ 10:23pm Uncle Michael: Man, I loved Thin White Rope way back when.
	♥ 10:24pm Stevel: Why do I think this will not be the only Gap Dream appearance? GD is a very dynamic musical operation. Loved the seamless set a few months back.
	10:24pm earrie: Literally 'that bathes in oil' (?)
	♥ 10:24pm efd: Joe B, if you're still out there, let's include "may the DJ before you never set the default search engine to Wikipedia" in your Harry Harrison poem next year.
	10:25pm earrie: Or 'swimming in grease' ? Tout baigne dans l'huile.
	♥ 10:29pm Uncle Michael: Harry Harrison poem?
	10:30pm Holly in NC: Is there any way to purchase The Big Believe other than itunes? I don't do itunes.
	10:35pm steve: Empty Avenues, GREAT choice. the Pye Corner Audio remix is amazing too
	♥ 10:35pm efd: Amanda, I'm not sure - I'll see what I can find out.
	10:35pm Droll: Holly, Just pay your entertainment re-distribution fee to Apple, it's the 2014 way.
	10:35pm Loretta: Happy New Year!!!!!! Evan, I'm enjoying the show immensely!
	10:36pm fleep: Production on Empty Avenues is just great, the sound jumps out at you.
	10:36pm Holly in NC: xo Empty Avenues xo Amanda??!!
	♥ 10:37pm Julie: Holly are you wearing your Amanda hat again?
	♥ 10:37pm 12539: Holly: vinyl from www.thebigbelieve.com...
	10:38pm Eddy in Australia: +1 on Holly (aka Amanda!)'s request for The Big Believe. A 7" would be great.
	10:39pm Eddy in Australia: Done! Thanks, 12539
	♥ 10:39pm 12539: Hollyamanda: That URL came out weird, but there's a button on the Big Beieve site.
	♥ 10:41pm efd: sorry Holly, I was thinking of Amanda from The Big Believe when I was typing (and I wasn't paying attention to what I was writing!).
	10:45pm Droll: [dinner interruption to comment on industrial music] !!!!!! [back to dinner]
	♥ 10:47pm efd: Michael, to belatedly answer your question - Joe B was talking on his show about collaborating with Dave The Spazz on an updated/WFMU-centric version of Harry Harrison's traditional Xmas/year-end blessings. Maybe not a poem exactly.
	♥ 10:50pm Uncle Michael: I didn't grow up in Harry's listening area so my awareness of him doesn't include the blessings. I'm sad.
	10:51pm Holly in NC: Thank you 12539! Hi Julie! In the alternate Hollyamanda world where efd has more time & longer lists, I'd add Gino & the Goons 'Oh Yeah' 7'' & Lazy's 'Don't Die' 7''. Actually the song 'Don't Die' is meh, but the b-side, 'Soft Sheets' is AWESOME. Which makes me think of meh lps that have 1 great song, such as Gringo Star's Floating Out to See ('100 miles' = the 1 great song). And then there's a very good but not great lp with a brilliant song about lobster, and Boston, anong other things (White Mystery's 'Fun Times', on their Telepath lp)
	♥ 10:53pm Ken From Hyde Park: My Department Of Suggestions wants me to pass this on - Can you make tonight's songs a 2014 Marathon premium?
	♥ 11:01pm Uncle Michael: I'm enjoying the countdown, efd. I'm going to kill the lights and see how much of the last hour I can stay awake for. I'll have to catch the tail on the archive. Thanks for the show. Night all.
	11:01pm Joe B: ha! that is a good one evan. i think I gotta do that next year. I have been threatening to do it for years. maybe I already did it and forgot
	11:11pm neelc13: Great show as always, Evan. Happy new year
	11:14pm Holly in NC: "Flash of the Moment" is indeed 1 of the best songs ever
	11:16pm neelc13: I'm probably the only one who let out a hearty chuckle when efd said "Jerms with a J"
	♥ 11:19pm efd: I think I just said "Costa Brava" instead of Costa Blanca.
	11:23pm Droll: If the "Hot Lunch" sound becomes standard equipment in 2014, let me be the first to call 2014 an overdue renaissance.
	11:25pm Holly in NC: efd, I'd forgotten about Hot Lunch, thank you ever so much for reminding me!!
	11:26pm bothered selection: Am glad to see the kids still have good tasted in music. The new year isn't doomed after all. Heroic effort DJ Even "Funk" Davies.
	11:27pm Callieflower: Happy New Year, everybody! I accidentally fell asleep before the show started!
	♥ 11:32pm Stevel: I really, really want to see Wax Idols. www.youtube.com... Live "Stare Back" Not great audio or vid, but a straight cut of the tune. Intense? Yes.
	♥ 11:32pm efd: Hi Callie! Glad you got here before it was all over! And greetings, thanks, and happy new year to everyone commenting and everyone listening - I really appreciate it.
	♥ 11:35pm Fuzzy: Always dig listening Wed. nights 9 to midnight -- looking forward to more Totally Funkin' Awesome tunes in 2014!
	11:36pm RCinMT: Well, now I'm dying to know what got bumped out of #10 best album?
	♥ 11:37pm efd: RC, check this page tomorrow for the Bubbling Under lists! :D
	11:38pm Droll: Mellotron... but this is 2014!
	11:41pm Holly in NC: @droll, I am 100% sure we will here another lp heavy on the mellotron before this show is over ;-)
	11:41pm Holly in NC: HEAR. I am so tired, sorry.
	11:44pm Callieflower: Now to spend the first part of 2014 catching up on great albums I missed from 2013! Thanks for catching me up, Evan :)
	11:44pm Holly in NC: And here it is!
	♥ 11:44pm Stevel: "Heavy on the Mellotron, bartender."
	11:46pm Eddy in Australia: Gap Dream for the repeat!
	♥ 11:47pm efd: Now for many of you, the #2 LP is going to basically give away the #1 LP.
	♥ 11:48pm efd: Just cued up the #2 album and had a brief twinge of regret for not making it #1.
	♥ 11:49pm Stevel: OMD produced a wonderful album. No qualifiers.
	♥ 11:50pm Stevel: I'm surprised at #2 and I understand the twinge, but this was a tough year.
	11:52pm Droll: Stairway to Heaven deserves to be first! GD can try again next year...
	11:52pm Holly in NC: Well now I'm uncertain about #1, actually. I have 1 guess.
	♥ 11:52pm efd: This album is so great, but I can't deny that something about the #1 album just grabs me a certain way.
	♥ 11:55pm Stevel: "And now, at the top of the charts, grabbing us in that certain way..."
	11:55pm Holly in NC: Oh! I was soo wrong!
	♥ 11:56pm efd: what were you expecting, Holly?
	♥ 11:57pm 12539: Thanks for a great year of programming, efd.
	11:57pm Chris M.: free fall is on my best of list too and i believe i first heard them on this excellent program. thanks efd
	♥ 11:58pm efd: Hey Chris! You're welcome, and you're welcome too 12539. Thanks for listening everyone!
	♥ 11:58pm Stevel: Yes Holly...??
	11:59pm Droll: #1 is grabbing me in that AC/DC way. EFD is sooooo predictable! [which is why I tune in regularly]
	♥ 11:59pm Stevel: That is still an amazing scream.
	12:00am Holly in NC: E. pecting nothing after Gap Dream shock, but thought maybe Mantles? Also I really like Shocked Minds, Black Hollies, Endless Boogie & White Fence, but knew they wouldn't be your #1. And Pink Noise! And Life Stinks!
	12:00am Callieflower: Okay, that song is really fun
