what three words beginning with c and linked by the notion of 'plenty' might be given by Elgar's Overture; Mozart's Concertos and the emperor's comment on his music?

[Norfolk Born]

on Amazon it says this is made up of tracks recorded in the 60's and 70's

I think this applies to the recent re-release (it's not uncommon for bonus tracks to be added during remastering or upon reissue).

[Norfolk Born]

No apology needed. I'm impressed by aka...'s addition of further alliteration of which I was unaware. The two tracks I described were, of course, Kenny Ball's 'Midnight in Moscow' (originally called 'Leningrad Nights' and/or - some say - Suburban Nights In Moscow) and Acker Bilk's 'Stranger On the Shore'.

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

No it is my apology needed...
1 not making it sufficiently clear that the cover was not the answer ... the link was ... i trust this is to a reference to the original 1966 release as titled in the post
2 not waiting for confirmation before posting a question about C ... i plead terror at the thought and could not wait to think of something quick!

I will happily yield the question setting to hercule!

Calum,

I'm not completely happy with my answer, but...

Cockaigne (the land of plenty, or too much, as in Breughel's painting), cornucopia (the horn of plenty - Mozart's horn concertos), and copious (too many notes).

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

well done Tapiola, may i be excused now?

[Tapiola]

*phew*

As you were, Calum.

Ok, on to D...

What "D" connects a fictitious resident of Fleet Street, an early work by Hindemith and a British cinematic shocker released in Sibelius' last year?

I'm not sure if it's this easy but I'm thinking Demon, as in barber of Fleet St., Der Daemon and Night of the...

rubbernecker,

Gosh, that was quick. Congratulations. I thought a straightforward one might be in order after my more abstruse offerings.

Over to you for "E".

[Tapiola]

And congrats to you too, hercule - unfortunately pipped at the post.

[rubbernecker]

What E connects a Hibernian lager, a canopied penny-farthing and an ode to the pleasures of butter?

[rubbernecker]

Elms?

Nope

[rubbernecker]

Ellis?

Pouvez-vous expliquer?
