The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from December 4, 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.

	11:34pm efd: thanks for checking in, SteveL... hope the situation with your loved one stabilizes soon.
	11:41pm Roberto: This might be my favorite track from the first Pretenders LP, if only because it never gets enough recognition.
