Favoriting The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from March 14, 2018 Favoriting

efd's avatar View efd's profile Favoriting

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.

PLUS! Pledge $50 or more NOW -- or, even better, $10 a month! -- and get get in the running for my Grand Prize: the Friends Of EFD 7" 4-pack, featuring records from Terry Malts, Ultimate Painting, Zerodent, and Stag!
ONE lucky pledger will win FOUR 7-inch records at the end of tonight's show! Will it be you? Not unless you pledge $50 or more RIGHT NOW to get in the running! Pledge NOW before you forget! Thank you!

And then, much later, The Comic Strip. If you don't know the Comic Strip, but love The Young Ones, look for it.

"Reach Out In The Darkness" was Friend and Lover (I was thinking Spanky and Our Gang but I looked it up). I remember Friends of Distinction for "Grazing In The Grass", and they had one other hit I can't remember.

"Love or Let Me Be Lonely' was the one I was trying to think of, has a really cool chorus.

You guys make the annual pledge drive so fun, I have a hard time walking away. I love hearing about the giveaways and who wins them (heck, I've won a couple myself in the past). But walk away I must now. Thanks again, though, Evan, for "Radio Hearts" (and nice to see a goodly amount of them on the comments board). I know it was just part of the theme, but I ask you, where else are you gonna hear Willie Alexander and the Boom Boom Band?
