Listener 4814 Business Tax Service By Puffin

A perfectly worthy but gentle Friday Club puzzle.

A good beginner's listener particularly if they are fans of the oeuvre.

Listener 4812 Six Seconds By Kruger

Listener 4810 Cognitive Dissidence By Vagans

An interesting puzzle. Some of the adjusted theme words were, perhaps, slightly contrived. On the whole, I thought it was very entertaining. Many thanks, Vagans.

Listener 4805 Claque By Leo

Perfectly good clues and gimmick but the inspiration for this (as described in Wiki) was so utterly depressing that we abandoned the grid stare in limine.

I thought the clues were set at the ideal level of difficulty -- difficult but not so fiendish as to lose the all-important enjoyment factor. The endgame is curious; no problem with the final bits... ...
