Tomorrow night, a new show debuts on WFUV: "The Boogie Down." Binky Griptite, the guitarist from The Dap-Kings, will be the host of this soulful and funky radio party, Saturday nights at 8 p.m. Today's Question of the Day celebrates the show's debut, and you can provide the entertainment by suggesting songs with "boogie," "funky," "soul" and the like in the titles. We'll play a selection of your suggestions in the 9 a.m. hour.
(Please note that "Cavalcade" and "The Bottomless Pit" are moving to Sunday nights, with Paul Cavalconte's "Cavalcade" at 8 p.m. and Marshall Crenshaw's "The Bottomless Pit" at 11 p.m. Full schedule here.)
