    Let's assume that's correct. Here are three acts with a theme connecting the song titles.

    1. Elton John
    2. Chicago
    3. Bay City Rollers

    1. Elton John - SATURDAY Night's Alright For Fighting
    2. Chicago - SATURDAY In The Park
    3. Bay City Rollers - S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night

    I knew if I led with Elton John you'd have to get on it. :)

    Let's go back to the album theme.

    Albums by these artists have titles associated with DESERT.

    Elton John -
    U2 -
    Fleetwood Mac -

    Elton John -
    U2 -
    Fleetwood Mac - Mirage (I don't have this one)

    I'll never come up with the U2 one. Elton John has so many I will need to research.

    Empty Sky is incorrect. Chronilogically two albums away. It came after the album containing Your Song.

    Correct! That's an awesome album. Not full of a lot of "hits", but probably one of his finest LPs. If you haven't heard it, give it a listen.

    Now, someone's up.
