play list 09/11/2008

i got a great new cd from the station. the band is called funkadesi and they fuse reggae and Indian music. they're from chicago, so their promo material has a quote/review from barack obama, lol. barack says "funkadesi really knows how to get a crowd going. I can't say enough about how energizing this band is. there's a lot of funk in that desi"

so after that i played some other indian music, and then some more run dmc (king of rock) since that went over well last week. then some ska, neil diamond, and some electronic.

what got me playing run dmc in the first place was this solo single by Run that i recently found at the station. i love donald trump's line at the end of the video:

and of course, the king of rock video is a classic:
