Back from a saucy weekend in France, The Dark Lord has some new threads to kickstart your week. There's a new Album and Record of the Week and general buffoonery.

Alex, aka The Dark Lord, is back after a weekend in France and ready to get your week off to a flying start with new thread, "I'll Have An Edwina Curry and Some Aneka Rice, Please". It's going to be one of those weeks. We revisit the thread, History by the People that History Forgot, and more Flaunting a Haunting. Alex selects a vintage track from Sensational Alex Harvey Band and a new one from Pugwash, from Lester's Library, and Terrorvision are featured on Listener's Library. Plus, there's a track from The Hollies who have our Album of the Week, and the first spin of our new Record of the Week, from Ben Montague. Expect the unexpected and you won't be disappointed.
