    Sorry. Forgot to check back.
    Yes, the Zombies.

    Another clue for the song. Female is gone.

    The Zombies -- She's Not There

    That's a big one from them. I should have been able to come up with it, but would never have without research.

    The artist is correct. You're on the right track for the song title.

    1 / night + 1 / fix = [song]

    Manilow/Daybreak

    Funny! I have Barry Manilow as my playlist the past few days. It's been a long time since I've given him a listen, so I set up a playlist of his for my walks. So many good songs...besides the "hits"

    That's what I was looking for. Go ahead @snookeroo

    Hopefully you have his more recent albums:

    The Greatest Love Songs Of All Time
    The Greats Songs Of The Seventies
    The Greats Songs Of the Sixties

    Many really good old songs, not done by the original artist, but very well done and good recording. Recording technology came a long ways in about 40 or 50 years.

    Don't have any of those. I'll have to check them out.


    Thinking on a new one...

    Here is an example from The Greatest Songs Of The Sixties. Such a good recording and so well done. He did it along with The Association.

    Have the group I think. "Blank" Eddie makes me think of Duane Eddie or maybe Eddie and the Cruisers, neither of which is helping right now.

    Actually I intended it to mean 'minus Eddie'

    Not very familiar with their stuff (if I'm right).

    Pink Floyd / Cruisin' For A Bruisin'

    Pink Floyd is correct. Still looking for the song title.

    Everytime ,I think of minus, I think of “Les”. Can’t think of any Les with Pink Floyd
    Eddie= Vedder? Van Halen? Who was Eddie?

    3-way mashup (see spoiler for definition). I'll provide the 3 artists (in order) and you have to provide the 3 connecting songs.
    Definition:
    Mashup: MA` sh * up: (n)
    The would-be song if two artists mashed their titles together
    Example:
    Artist: George Gerswin and Elvis =
    Song: I can't give you anything but LOVE Me tender

    1. Bob Marley
    2. Neil Diamond
    3. Roy Orbison
