Hi Alcoholica!  :)
I'll give you partial credit for getting the song title.  Maybe somebody else will know the 'W' artist who did it...

Hi Paul!
Yes, White Plains it is! You are right about it being a place in New York, and I'd always thought the band was from there, actually. ???
Thanks for the compliment regarding my quizzes. :)
