    If it’s a choice between no show and a ropey show, most listeners would probably like a ropey show. That’s what this one is. Not the bits on the mic, those are as stellar as always. The music is also good. It’s the ordering of it, we’re a bit rusty so it doesn’t quite flow as well as it has in the past. Perhaps we’re over-thinking it (very likely).Anyway, here’s the show. Early morning upload for the fiends that want to listen on Monday morning.As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!https://www.instagram.com/radionighttrain/https://bsky.app/profile/thenighttrain.co.ukDon’t forget, we’re also available for family functions, weddings, funerals, boat launches and more.SHOW NOTESOnly Tapes in the Poker Room: Ty Segall’s Collector Code | Digshttps://www.discogs.com/digs/features/vinylogue-ty-segall/S&M Presents: Ghost Funk Orchestra — Sidney&Matildahttps://www.sidneyandmatilda.com/events/sm-presents-ghost-funk-orchestraUnexpected Covers LPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcVFoOwdDHE&list=OLAK5uy_lwtmMcFy1SElLdoiina-bp3dRyRUwd-f0WFMU: Testify! with Larry Grogan: Playlist from October 16, 2019https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/88908‘We watched 9/11 from the rooftop, blasting the music out’: how The Disintegration Loops became a requiem for the attackshttps://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/feb/22/911-the-disintegration-loops-anohni-william-basinskiTRACKLISTINGTy Segall - Tall Man Skinny LadyKing Curtis - Night TrainGrupo Los Yoyi - Del Copacabana A 34 (DJ Nature re-edit)Craig - I must be madThe Fleur De Lys - CirclesErasmo Carlos - É Preciso Dar Um Jeito, Meu AmigoMartyn - ef40Quasimoto - GreeneryGhost Funk Orchestra - Walk Like a MotherfuckerCab Calloway - Reefer ManThe Smoking Trees - Persuaded RendezvousPlacid Angels - HeroSly & The Revolutionaires with Jah Thomas - Acapulco GoldDillinger - Marijuana In My BrainDillinger - Marijuana In My Brain (Instrumental)HOUR TWOBob Dylan - Rainy Day Women #12 & 35Cypress Hill - I Wanna Get High (Instrumental)Donna Loren - So, Do The ZonkChain And The Gang - Nuff SaidSpecial Friend - BÊTEKlang - As It IsLittle Willie John - Need Your Love So BadBone Thugs and Harmony - 1st of tha Month The Kruder and Dorfmeister Session Part 3The Wiseguys - Nil By MouthNatural Magic - RideMogwai - Waltz For AidanFlying Lotus - Coronus, The TerminatorLarry Adler - Smoking ReefersAphex Twin - XtalWilliam Basinski - dlp 1.3

  • #419 Brasil (15th Feb 2026)
    Feb 16 2026

    With this show it’s best to just focus on the music. Please ignore us butchering the Portuguese language when trying to pronounce artists and song titles. We did our best.


    As it’s Carnival Season (and the big day tomorrow), we promised some people a Brasil special. If you’re not lucky enough to be celebrating Carnival/Mardi Gras, use this as the soundtrack to your Pancake Day.


    Back this Sunday with a normal show, unless someone famous dies.


    As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!

  • #418 Steve flies solo (8th Feb 2026)
    Feb 10 2026

    A Tuesday evening upload?!? Madness. It’s almost like you’ll never know when an upload is going to happen. So here’s Sunday’s show. It’s Steve on his own which means there’s a good chance there’ll be a Mary Lattimore cut, a 78 and some Osees.


    We’re back next week with a Brasil special in preparation for Carnival. Get your requests and suggestions in, pronto.
