If you enjoy deep tracks from this period of rock history, 'BCN can't be beat. Live clips, news, everything. Little did I know at the time just how unique BCN was, and how fortunate I was to be in its transmitter range.
The BEST station in the northeast bar none... God! How I miss them in their heyday years!
Would love to connect to Amazon Alexa ! Is it possible ?
I live between Detroit and Ann Arbor, where we have access to a couple decent stations, but nothing like this. I'm continually astounded at the playlists from WBCN! It's pretty, much all I listen to now.
Moved to upstate NY from Boston four years back. Always loved WBCN since the '60s! Awesome sounds... Brings tears to my eyes! The very best in Old Skool magic, Keep-on Keepin' On!
