Bernie Clifton death metal band album mix-up

A headline for the ages.

A list of tracks by a death metal band was accidentally printed on the back of a new album by comedian Bernie Clifton.

The 80-year-old said he was "fuming and furious" about the error, which saw songs by the group Abhorrent Decimation printed on his CD.
...
Tracks from Bernie Clifton's The Impossible Dream album
Wind beneath my wings
Lady in red
The sunshine of your smile
Count your blessings

Tracks from Abhorrent Decimation's Miasmic Mutation album
Eternal repulsion
Souls of sedation
Echoes of the vortex
Odious

And, is it not odd that the BBC article does not mention the identiry of the label/publisher responsible for the cock-up? Nor why the BBC considers it worthy of mention?

How to improve any song from "Grease" in one easy step....

Or maybe the Pina Colada Song is more to your tastes?

Mind you, a bit of death metal might improve the looks of GDP at this stage! If it works for Bernie Clifton, why not for Bernie-Clinton? Or if applied to the Labour OR especially Tory Party, it might improve their chances in the Council elections?

but right at the moment, probably the US Republicans most of all!

Actually 'Decency Defied' and 'Make Them Suffer' would be fairly appropriate titles for both Trump and Cruz.

(though I myself could do without any version where I can actually hear and comprehend the words!)
