Album playing on journey is a pain (7)
I believe the answer is:
lumbago
'pain' is the definition.
(lumbago is a kind of pain)
'album playing on journey' is the wordplay.
'playing' is an anagram indicator.
'on journey' becomes 'go' (I've seen this in other clues).
'album' is an anagram of 'lumba'.
'lumba'+'go'='LUMBAGO'
'is a' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for lumbago that I've seen before include "Rheumatic backache" , "Lower back ache" , "Back affliction" , "Back problem" , "Form of backache" .)
