Hello, I hope all is groovy. Things are pretty odd here, as I am looking after a dog for the next few days. He is half Bedlington, half Whippet, so like a Bippet or Whippington or something. The good thing is he refuses to do what he's told - a bit like me, so we get along fine. Although he does have a funny five minutes every now and again and seems to bark at ghosts. He woke us all up last night. And he also has to wear a coat when he goes out. Christ.

Today I am carrying on the January #50pFriday idea of recapping, and we have another ten albums including one that was demanded this week by a member of this very mailing list - Trains In The Night. We also have a killer Miles Davis LP, Mondo Cane, a Beatnik LP, underwater exotics and more more more. The albums can be found here.

PLUS - Monday night is of course Burns Night. Therefore I have found a Burns Night album by The Saltire Group. Who the hell are they? I have no idea but they are Scottish and they know what they're doing.

This week my lovely wife told me about this video. Millions of people have seen it already, but apparently it was posted up this week on a forum or something by one of the mum's at school, called Claire. So, nice one Claire, we are all now laughing at very serious fashion shows going wrong. I've watched the sequence from 1:34 to 2:12 about a hundred times now, and that's just this morning.

The reason I have sent this out early is because I have to go and walk the dog, then head to Spitalfields.Yes, today is the freezing cold record fayre - it's cold in there even when it's warm as it has a hollow floor, making it perfect for fruit and vegetable markets, but not that good for vinyl. I could attempt a joke about vegetables and record people now but I shall refrain. But if I find anything interesting at the fayre I shall post it up on Instagram. If I remember last time I posted a picture of the middle-aged dealer with the green and purple outfit and the green and purple hair to match. Nice.

Thanks for listening

Jonny
