When Big Joan Sets Up 2nd May – Let There Be Light

Three from the long awaited new LP from the magnificent Horrors “Luminous” this week plus a tune from the late DJ Rashad who in a musical climate welded ever more desperately to the forms of the last century made records that brought us things that we’d never heard before and therefore belongs in the same company as the Beefhearts,Mark E Smiths and King Tubbys of the world. He’ll be missed. RIP.
