These mayy get shorter because I'm on holiday but by god they WILL be done

CLICK TO LISTEN - BACK COVER - CODE BY

A note on the type

I hope the cover is recognisable as David Bowie's Aladdin Sane :] This was the first cover I made, and whence I decided to do the whole parody thing - what better icon 4 icon?

background noise

Of COURSE a joke playlist is still going to have notes. Who do you think I am. If you don't know who the man the myth the legend Ernest Shackleham is, may I offer this gif for ease of acquaintance:



& Really that's all you need to know about him. LPOE sure is a show!

Obviously the songs were chosen to spell out a thing, but some of them do I think fit Shackleham & I will endeavour to translate here:

thank you for the music

Believe me when I beg you
Don't ever leave me alone
