Remove duplicate words in file name

I am sure I am overthinking this.

I have 500 files named song name - artist - random number - album title.extension  I have everything figured out except how to get rid of the album title.  I thought I remembered seeing something in Rearrange where you could choose audio and then fix that, but I cannot seem to find

Now is:
Rock Around the Clock  335 Bill Haley & His Comets Rock Around the Clock.mp3

Would like:
Rock Around the Clock - Bill Haley & His Comets.mp3

Re: Remove duplicate words in file name

It might just be easier to do a replace operation:  use an insert operation using a meta tag of the artist or title from the MP3 (assuming that these variables are stored in the MP3 data) and replace current name...
