From thrilling affairs that dissolve into sweaty desperation
(Night Chancers) to the absurd bloggers, fruitlessly clinging
to the fag ends of the fashion set (Sleep People), via soiled
real life (Slum Lord) social media – enabled stalkers (I’m not
Your Dog) and new day, sleep – deprived optimism (Daylight),

the record’s finely drawn vignettes, are all based on the
corners of world Dury has visited.

Baxter says “Night Chancers is about being caught out in your
attempt at being free”, it’s about someone leaving a hotel
room at three in the morning. You’re in a posh room with big
Roman taps and all that, but after they go suddenly all you
can hear is the taps dripping, and all you can see the debris
of the night is around you. Then suddenly a massive party
erupts, in the room next door. This happened to me and all I
Could hear was the night chancer, the hotel ravers”.
