For the Record
:)
Delivery lead-in LABORPAINS
Heads-up discovery LUCKYPENNY [note hyphen]
French bean? TETE
Chute opener? PARA
8)
A fortuitous combination, ARTIE Shaw and Saint-SAENS, as both are musical favorites of mine, and of a million others. Along with CORNET, they make for a musical northwest quadrant. BTW, "Eres Tu" is a fine song, especially the way Spanish singer Julio Iglesias recorded it.
;)
Make-believe intro LETSPRETEND [also the title of a popular radio show in the Thirties and Forties]
:(
Twenty somethings? ATMS [if the only denomination dispensed were twenty dollar bills]
LIMERICKPOETRY is redundant since we simply refer to it as a limerick. We don’t say sonnet poetry either as it is subsumed under the class lyric poetry. Limericks would be under the class of children's poetry or humorous poetry.
60 minuti ORA [ora pro nobis is better than the Italian]
Who, in Quebec CUI [too exotic]
Not under, with “at” LEAST [an tortured interpretation of the phrase]
Theme: LP phrases seems rather mundane for a Sunday puzzle
RATING: Too many problems and a weak theme for my taste.
