Enigmatic Variations No.1338 – London Songbook by Marmaduke

“In a game of LONDON SONGBOOK, six clues consist of a partial song title that can be completed in a punning fashion by adding the name of a part of London. For instance, If I Were a ____ (from Fiddler on the Roof) might be completed with the word ‘Richmond’ to give a punning version of the song title If I Were a Rich Man. Answers to these clues must be entered where they will fit. In ten across clues, the wordplay leads to the answer and an additional letter not to be entered into the grid. In clue order, these letters give a musical group and a further partial song title; solvers must highlight the eight-letter part of London which might complete the title.”

The parts of London were guessable, which helped along an already quite speedy gridfill. A few clues were a little difficult to parse, but there was no doubt as to the entries. I found it an enjoyable way to occupy a Sunday afternoon.

The extra letters give ____ TO HELL ACDC.

HIGHGATE can be found along the main diagonal (Highway to Hell being the original song).
