Good day, an interesting one again this week! I’m stuck on the following for which I would appreciate help. Thanks in advance!

( PREAMBLE: Clashes occur in three cells. Two entries with clashes and three without are subject to the TRANSFIGURATION implied by a song from the unclued answer, being replaced by five other synonyms. New crossing entries created by replacements are all verifiable in Chambers Dictionary (2016). )

 

1a   Loose rock initially near some rows of trees ( 7 ) : S?FE?N?
13a Intense temperature appropriate in Aberdeen ( 5 ) : ?K???
20a Numbers enthralled by a salesman, revolutionary character ( 7 ) : ?E?O???
2d  The King with Princess Anne informally joined body ( 7 ): ??U?S??
7d   Policeman with statement having secured murderer’s latest body ( 11 ): I??P???????
24d Article in recording supported by state body ( 7 ) : ?????E?
27d Shock with son going off to be graffiti artist ( 6 ) : ???S?M?

Matakari, hope these helped and that you got this good puzzle finished off.

Remember there are clashes involved. 

PS Shame about EV - I thought we'd given you a great start with the letters.

Thanks, NACW! And for this one?

Merci, NACW, this should be the end of another great lesson.

Thanks, Matakari - and I'm sure you won't be a learner for very much longer!
