Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the above co-ordinates, but is within 5miles. It is actually at N5A BC.DEF W00G HJ.KLM and celebrates my love for one of the greatest musical genres ever – it will never die.

A is the second digit of the date (day) of death of the writer of the song which was ‘covered’ by Def Leppard in 1983, some 220 years later.

B is the fourth digit of the year in which the above writer was born.

C is the difference between the second and third digits of the year in which The Beach Boys covered one of Reg’s songs from 1972.

D is the second digit of the month in which the original performer (middle name Edward) of a song covered by the Beatles in 1963 was born.

E is the second digit of the birth day of the writer of the alphabetically first ‘Classic’ song on the DS game named after a Danish manufactured (some might say plastic) band of builders.

F is the difference between the number of letters in the first and last names of the person who performed Charles Calhoun’s song in 1956.

G is the number of minutes (to the nearest minute) that it took to play the 1956 song mentioning a 18/19th century composer with a friend called Simrock!

H is the number of letters of the appropriate patron saint of the church at the given co-ordinates

J is the third and the fourth digit of the year in which the man who covered Big Joe Turner’s 50's song died.

K is the third digit of the year in which the song later appearing on the ‘Pyromania’ album was written.

L is the last digit of the year in which the person who covered Jesse Stone’s 1954 song 2 years later was born.

M is the number of letters in one of the given names of people referred to in the clues for B, D and E

Congrats to 'We do checks and cache' from Milton Keynes for being FTS (solve) and thanks for their help in clarifying a couple of the clues.
Congrats to Stoke Bunnies for FTF and also thanks for spotting another 'hole' in the puzzle.
