Funk For Days: A Hanukkah Miracle

This week, the winter solstice ushered darkest day of 2020, yet it was brightened by a rare event - the Jupiter and Saturn planetary conjunction which is the closest the two planets have been together in 400 years.

FSQ show host Chuck Da Fonk celebrates this holiday season by shining light into the winter darkness via jams by FSQ regulars Duran Duran, Yello, Parliament-Funkadelic, James Brown, and Sly & The Family Stone.

Positivity is cast about the 2 hour episode via new music from Tom Noble, David Hinckley, Chrissy, Blue Material, Kito Jempere, WhoMadeWho, Alex Metric, Buscabulla and more independent artists. Plus, we break down the meaning of Hanukkah, and keeping with that spirit, we broadcast the lost Hebrew spiritual recordings of Harlem’s African-American Jewish community from the 1920s.
