With the 'exciting' news that there's a J-La NonStopDancing box coming out, I've checked which ones I've picked up in 8 years of doing . And I'm only missing these four! Eek! Not quite sure how that happened. I've started so I'll finish. And if anyone can help! 😉

Lunchtime chazza browse. Some locally released brass and an excellent Dusty comp that's been on my wantslist for a while. Most pleased.

I do believe that the placement of these three artists/albums next to each other in this exact order on a chazza shelf opens up a secret portal to hell. I got out just in time.

Sajid Javid says we need to pay £20 for a GP appointment and £66 to go to A&E as a way to solve the NHS funding crisis. He’s wrong because there are so many better options in my new report on funding the NHS. A thread…..

Did anyone ever spot this postie driving around in his Toyah-mobile back in 1981? All hand-painted! Flippin' 'eck.

Well this is a particularly pungent slab of 60s cheese. Tremendous stuff!

Just rediscovered a box of 78s that I’d carefully stashed away* a couple of years ago.

Crikey! Ken and I will be colleagues. I'd better apply for Popmaster before he leaves the Beeb.

*IF* we were to do an ABBA record club night, what would you want to hear... A full album? A selection of lesser-known tracks? The hits? 🤔

It’s in a bit of a sorry state, but with a track list like that, I couldn’t leave it in the chazza! Hoping I can clean it up a bit and salvage a few tracks for 🤞

I half heard a song on the radio the other day and thought it was Psycho Killer, but gradually realised it was You Should Be Dancing... Why has it taken me 40+ years to realise ver Heads ripped off the Bee Gees?! Anyway, I had a go at making a mashup.

Weekend chazza finds including a couple more Bowie covers, but they came too late to squeeze into yesterday’s . I’ll save them for another time.

A reminder that we'll be back on @ALLFM this Sunday at 11am with a David Bowie special to mark what would have been his 76th birthday. All the music we'll be playing will have a Bowie connection in some way other

Ah! It’s the Wilhelm Scream era of #totp. You can hear the same ‘whoop’ at the beginning and end of every song on the audience applause tape. Every week, week in week out.

Lunchtime chazza spoils from a variety of establishments. LPs a pound each, CD prices varied and in some cases were made up on the spot!

I’ve just burnt my left middle fingertip on some hot marzipan. It’s a dangerous world out there. Take good care.

First chazza haul of the year. Was confronted by a guy who accused me of taking all the ‘good stuff’. Maybe I did! A couple more for the NOW collection too. The smell of loft is strong! Let the cleaning commence.

RIP Alan Rankine. The music he made with Billy Mackenzie still continues to fascinate and beguile over 40 years on. I just don't know how they did it. Even this video on the making of Club Country doesn't really reveal anything. Extra-terrestrial pop.

Very sad news. The Associates gave us many unique moments and produced music that is still beautiful and unfathomable.

Sad to hear of the death of The Associates' Alan Rankine. You can read our interview with him here, talking about his former band's classic album, Sulk...
