The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from January 9, 2019

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.

Listener comments!
	9:04pm JakeGould: Hello EFD!!!
	9:05pm Your Ace From Exchange Place: Howdy!
	9:06pm efd: hello hello! I was starting to worry that the Internet was broken!
	9:07pm JakeGould: It kinda broke last night when my friends were either talking about that stupid speech or the guy who licked a doorbell for 3 hours.
	9:13pm Julie M: Now we're talkin'! Hi Evan.
	9:18pm efd: hi Julie!
	9:19pm Eddy in Australia: Hi Evan, Happy New Year to you and the Wednesday night crew. Killer opening set. So glad to be listening live this week.
	9:20pm Julie M: Just to qualify, by the way, I mean the whole set so far. Music takes you back so easily...
	9:23pm Mailman Tom: I was heartbroken when I read her obit in the NYT a few days ago. What a gal!
	9:23pm Hoboken Jack: Howdy EFD, Glenn, all! R.I.P. female drummer whose name escapes me right now!
	9:28pm BLCKDGRD: Thank you!
	9:33pm efd: you're welcome!
	9:34pm Pedro in Arlington: Cannot play too much Bowie. OK, maybe not the 80s stuff. But the rest is more than fine.
	9:40pm JakeGould: Let’s Dance is a decent album.
	9:42pm efd: I forgot to mention that next month Chris O'Leary is coming back on my show to talk about his follow-up Bowie song-by-song book, Ashes To Ashes!
	9:43pm efd: (he came on a couple of years ago to talk about his first book, Rebel Rebel)
	9:46pm herb.nyc: Gary Olson song is great! I saw a Ladybug T cd at thrift, didn't buy (ugh!). Anyway, I thought Robert Forster? Esp since he's gonna release a record.
	9:47pm Robin Eisgrau: Awesome show as usual Evan! loved the glammy opening trax and the nod to Ian Dury.
	9:48pm Barkevious Shabazz: More than a little Go Betweens feel to that Gary Olson.
	9:55pm chris_in_space: @efd, great to hear about the upcoming interview with Chris O’Leary. Over the years, I've read some great books based on your author interviews. I'm betting this will be no different.
	9:56pm JakeGould: EFD has good taste.
	10:00pm herb.nyc: EFD is less filling!
	10:00pm twinoak170: Hi Evan and gang!
	10:02pm Barkevious Shabazz: You're equal, but different.
	10:06pm RobinSays: Do The Suburban Homes have anything to do with Suburban Lawns? ;) BTW this is Robin Eisgrau -- had a little wonkiness with my account.
	10:09pm Jhaykhay: What's the missing song?? Between l.o.x. And collate
	10:10pm efd: shit did I really forget to enter one??
	10:11pm JakeGould: Tastes great.
	10:11pm efd: I don't think I did? I don't see anything lying around
	10:11pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hiya EFD!
	10:12pm efd: hi Robin, no connection apart from both having "suburban" in their names
	10:20pm nickybones: this is amazing. my gf is frantically searching discogs now. haha. HI EVAN!
	10:25pm Bklyn Listener: Great show as per usual. Thanks for the Poprocks with EFD in the mornings too
	10:30pm efd: thanks and thanks, Bklyn Listener!
	10:30pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Is this a new song from the High Dials?
	10:40pm herb.nyc: Via Evans's Instagram, I learned he's aka Devin. (Who did todays NYTimes x/word? Dya see the cute vowel thing?) - oh, Less Filling!
	10:52pm javakid: read the Stamey autobiography that came out this year. he loved the Everly Bros. as a young boy.
	10:53pm twinoak170: Wow, loving this one.
	10:53pm javakid: and a Saint Etienne curated album with this song no less
	10:54pm efd: it has to be the creepiest of all Everly Brothers songs, right??
	10:59pm Alex of Chicago: I'm working, so can't comment much, but loving this set. Creepy Everly Brothers is my thing, but all the rest as well.
	11:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: I've always wondered, is Union Pool a place with a swimming pool or billiards?
	11:06pm morphe: Normally heard you after 3pm (198?)NYC in the backroom of Barnes&Noble(18st). Just awoke to your theme tune in my freezing attic in Madrid(0501CET) and thought I was in B&N
	11:11pm nickybones: @Ken From Hyde Park: neither! but, it does have a taco truck.
	11:13pm JakeGould: @morphe: Now that is a memory!
	11:13pm efd: ha, that's funny morphe!
	11:14pm efd: I think Union Pool was previously a (swimming) pool business, hence the name?
	11:19pm morphe: chris_in_space: you must find the film"Robinson in Space" a genuine SITUATIONIST Derivee around Defoe's England. Does anyone out there know the "Situatioinsts" Guy Debord, Vaneigman.. the "derives" or the "Detourment" ??? Worth finding at your Local Anarchist Bookshop: SITUATIONIST ANTHOLOGY [title] is a good starting point
	11:23pm morphe: Jake: Just woke up because it is 0500 in Madrid...Do you not rest? Must be the Cod Liver Oil??? Great Scot song: "Cod Liver Oil and the Orange Juice" Granny's would sneak it into juice.. Mothers rammed it down the throat!!
	11:26pm DocBlueDog: Woot. Just here for a visit. Thanks for the tickets to Union Pool Friday night and flashbacks to my late night ticket winning when I first moved to NYC back in 1985. Good times. Great show. Woot.
	11:29pm DocBlueDog: ps Society of the Spectacle is hard to miss if you’re remotely interested in shit. :)
	11:32pm RobinSays: Public Practice are really good. Are they a current band? I sense a little Waitresses/Pulsallama ness about them.
	11:32pm morphe: Doc..Go Doc!!!! Did you know Debord committed suicide?? Do not recall the year.
	11:33pm javakid: liked the Public Practice track as well. Discogs has them on a split 12'' with Flasher. Flasher are a Priests side project and I see the similarities across all those bands.
	11:46pm efd: interesting, javakid, I wasn't aware of the Flasher connection. I liked their album from last year a lot.
	11:47pm efd: @Robin, agree with your take on their sound
	11:51pm steveL: Dear God! I've nearly missed it all, watching Moonstruck with my wife! To the archives!
	11:52pm javakid: looks like a limited edition flexi with flasher and public practice to support a tour. so that's the connection and a show I would have very much liked to have seen.
	11:54pm efd: ooh yeah, that would have been pretty great!
	11:54pm darue keller: doctors of madness are so good, essential for any violin rock comp
	11:55pm Aitch: Nice show. Thanks efd.
	11:56pm steveL: That sounds pretty cool.
