I know about 10 on that list, and even some of those I wouldn't class as "artists".

I remember once having a debate at work about who had more famous music artists - Canada or Manchester.

Guess who won? (I admit, I'm biased, but I could name more that everyone had heard of, and this was with Canadians!). I'm still amazed that the Bee Gees are from Manchester, and not California.
