That is not the answer I was looking for. But still.... wow!

Well, Speed??

And Frisco, when I try to copy and paste into Google, it just lets me put in one item. It edits out the rest.

Wow. It's a good thing Clear Channel banned "Bridge Over Troubled Water." Those are some questionable lyrics. [Roll Eyes]

By the way, the answer to my unanswered puzzle was this: they all featured Andy Warhol art on the album cover.

Okay, that was a good enough guess. I don't see anyone on the right track, so I'll spill the beans. If you want to keep guessing, don't read ahead.

Morning has Broken featured piano playing by an undiscovered Rick Wakeman.

Imagine featured drumming by a likewise undiscovered Alan White.

Video Killed the Radio Star was performed by Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes.

All of these people would go on to become members of that pillar of prog-rock and perpetual cheesefest, the band that will not die, Yes.

There's your connection. I'm surprised that, with all the prog fans we've got up in here, no one knew that. Good guesses anyway, though.

Ooh, ooh, I just discovered a new one, and it's really cool. So I'm going to have to resurrect this thread.

Steely Dan: My Old School
Soft Machine: Moon in June
DJ Spooky, That Subliminal Kid: Galactic Funk (Tau Ceti Mix)

First person to get this is my hero. Good luck.

By the way, feel free to use google all you want. Although the solution makes more sense than my last one, google isn't very well suited to the problem, so if you can find it there I'll still be very impressed.

So, you need a hint?

I'm almost starting to give up hope that you'll figure this one out. So if you're still frantically working on the solution, don't read any further:

Steely Dan, Soft Machine, and That Subliminal Kid are all names inspired by the work of William S. Burroughs.

Who's next?

If I had been aware of this back then, I probably could have answered this one. [Big Grin]
