Dear Mr Boogaloo: I was at JFK on Wednesday at 6:10pm and lifted off the ground into London for breakfast. Later that evening, I was standing by the Costa Coffee at St Pancras International, looking up at a gigantic departure board of overground trains that have been radically interlaced over the years. Here's where you can come down from Birmingham to catch the Eurostar to Paris for Disneyland. Here was a note of a likely strike of the trains to Brussels (takes 1 hr 41 mins on a no-strike day). Aha! Here's [...]

We had Spizz' classic Where's Captain Kirk? a while back . So, it seemed only right to have the later, related, track, Spock's Missing . This was the B side to the No Room single (1980).

A classic that has been released umpteen times but never been a bona fides chart hit. The track was first released on Rough Trade in 1979 and was the first Indie Chart No1. But this version dates from 1987 and is a bit more synthy than the original. Spizz was/is Kenneth Spiers and has had as many band names as this rack has had releases. Spizz - Where's Captain Kirk?
