WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 21, 2008

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 21, 2008

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.

April 21, 2008: a decent two hour show. unfortunately, it's a three hour timeslot.
