The most recent installment of When Big Joan Sets Up saw us fully taking advantage of our nightime slot with records about about what my grandma calls “downstairs business”, records with pointlessly complicated titles, me proving unable to say “Napalm Enema” with lapsing into gibberish , Abba songs in Hindi,and a man with the enviable name of Earl Worthington the Third.

The tracklist which scarcely does justice to how excellent the music was, or how hamfisted my presenting skills are, looks like this:
