Funk, R&B, classic soul, plus the high style of DJ Steve “Hitman” Williams make this show a prime radio destination for a Friday night whether you’re on the way home or headed to happy hour. The music’s a great mix of masters (Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Aretha), popsters (The Emotions, The Delfonics) and stuff you probably won’t hear anywhere else (Shirley Brown’s “Poontang Man,” a song made for a Friday night). WMNF 88.5 FM, Fridays 7-9 p.m.
