The release order of the correct answers is as follows:
"Emergence", 1971; "The Tra-La Days Are Over", 1973; "Laughter In The Rain", 1974; "The Hungry Years", 1975; "Steppin' Out", 1976; "A Song", 1977; "All You Need Is the Music", 1978; "In the Pocket", 1980; "Come See About Me", 1983; "The Good Times", 1986.

Red Herrings:
Helen Reddy released "No Way to Treat a Lady" in 1975. Neil Diamond's album "Beautiful Noise" came out in 1976. "This Moment in Time" was released by Engelbert Humperdinck in 1979. The 1986 album "Leather Jackets" is by Elton John. Carly Simon's "Coming around Again" was released in 1987.
Born March 13, 1939 in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, New York in the U.S. state of New York, Neil Sedaka started writing songs with his friend Howard Greenfield when Neil was thirteen and Howard was sixteen. From the late 1950s through the mid '60s, he was a successful recording artist; he was the first American Rock 'N' Roller to tour South America. But the British Invasion hit him hard. Though he continued writing (first with Greenfield and then with Phil Cody) and recording, success eluded him at home, coming mostly in Britain and Australia. It was not until Elton John encouraged him to sign with his newly formed Rocket Records that Sedaka's fortunes turned around in the States. With 1974's "Laughter in the Rain", his first number one single since "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do" in 1962, he was on top again, and he never looked back.
