Correct Darkstone. Very smart and you have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the genre.

Here's another one.

A band is told they need more cowbell. And in the early 80s they had a hit song about what actress?

Okay, you've mentioned a dessert, but what about a "Desert" by the upper house of Parliament? 

This is an easy one.

House of lords is the band, but as they are not a band I am familiar with I have no idea of the song.

Well it's one of the only Deserts I can think of, and the only one people sing about, so I would guess something to do with that yeah

[Captain Howdy]

On the subject of deserts, try this one.

A band who was initially named after a desert singing about underage sex.

Winger was originally called "Sahara" and apparently changed their name upon a suggestion by Alice Cooper?

Who knew?

Well, you and Auslander did. Nice one.
