@thenighttrain.co.uk Spotted at the Junction, Cambridge last night.

I'm glad my own band made it onto my Spotify top songs playlist but maybe I should have played it a few more times than that.

Had a small amount of time between trains at Birmingham New Street earlier and inadvertently stumbled across "the birthplace of heavy metal".

I'm pretty sure I just saw John Deacon from Queen on a train in Cambridge. Looking exactly like these photos.

Uh-oh, I appear to have a new version of the Discogs app. I'm sure it'll be fine. 😬

Looking through some new-in records in a chazza today when a really annoying guy squeezed into a non-existent gap between me & someone else to flick through some others before standing over me while I went through the ones I'd picked out to review. So obviously I bought the lot just to piss him off.

Some spammy Discogs activity happening today. Same 2 users being discussed in a forum. Beware! www.discogs.com/forum/thread...

A numbered White Album in a chazza for a quid? Don't mind if I do. (It's the CD, but still ...).

The Blues Brothers on BBC4. I first saw this at a late night screening in Swindon after being turned away from The Brunel Rooms, where Tigertailz were playing. It was a nightclub and we were all 16. I think I got the better deal. Though I did go on to see Tigertailz a couple of times ...

Overheard: "The Charlatans, Stone Roses, Happy Mondays ... They all sound the same". Feel free to discuss.

Well, that certainly escalated. 🤷

Have just discovered that my 16yo was unaware of the saying "Red sky at night, shepherds delight".

Flukily timed return to the scene of the crime. Feel unreasonably disappointed that Totally Wired 1 wasn't there. Plus some more #VinylSanta potentials that I haven't photographed.

My 16yo has been asking for a copy of Transformer. Hit upon a naff looking reissue on eBay with bonus Berlin. No-one else bidded on it.

#NowPlaying from a better than average jazzy chazza (JazzChazz?) haul earlier this week. £1.50.

I think Facebook's just trolling me now.

This is, or was, an actual photo of the Stones rather than AI generated slop but I think they've used AI to try and sharpen the image, which hasn't worked out well for those at the back ...

I saw this t-shirt today and in the spirit of Paul Young I didn't buy it.

Borrowed from IG. I think we're all doing fine.

Shame it's not the original UK LP (only copy on Discogs: an ambitious €450) but this was was a nice £1.99 pick up today. Probably an unofficial release, it's not a listed version. #NowPlaying

Glad I spotted this tucked away under a bottom shelf. A fiver.
