Another slab of inspired daftness and great tunes to keep you entertained through the night. More from Album & Record of the Week, songs from Lester's & Listener's Libraries also.

It's the only way to keep yourself entertained throughout the night with laugh-out-loud chat and playlist crammed with classic tracks, old and new. National Underwear Week continues with more tributes to the tanga briefs rolling in. In the new thread, Mob Ability, you are required to work Mafia traditions into your everyday routine, plus there are more newcomers into the 4.15 One-Off Canteen and Pause for Thought at 3.20am.
From Lester's Library there is a new track from The Be Good Tanyas frontwoman, Frazer Ford, and a vintage track from Phil Lynnott. There is another track from Album of the Week by Brian Kennedy and Record of the Week from The Killers' frontman, Brandon Flowers also.
