WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 24, 2019

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 24, 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.

April 24, 2019: the show I did instead of going to see Cerrone
