Assassins 88

Hello all,

When Big Joan Sets Up is BCB’s dirty little secret tucked away on Wednesday nights at midnight like a mad relative trapped in the attic in a 1970’s horror film.  If you, humble blog reader, decide to join the happy band of insomniacs, skiving security guards and burglars that comprise our listenership, you can sample delightful new music in a bewildering variety of genres and one or two old songs as well.
