I don't get it.
Why did you do this?

Because I did get it
when Rob sent me his prototype.

Didn't realise, still Brian Connolly from the Sweet, Charlie Watts, Philip Glass, Pavarotti, and Rolf Harris

Sweet lyrics possibly work but guess you'd have to add the facial expressions, feet movement and long hair tossing...
You better beware, you better take care.
You better watch out if you've got long black hair.
He'll come from behind...
you'll go out of your mind.

um, I did 1988 to see if you'd locked in the original lineup
and it suggested Buddy Holly in Roy Orbison's place.
I'm pretty sure Buddy Holly would have been unavailable.

You sometimes get famous skulls playing Yorick.

Not sure about including light entertainers in a supergroup though it does make it funnier.
You've essentially automated the first part of Rock Star Ate My Hamster.

The Traveling Wilburys for the year 1950
Benjamin Britten (37)
Johnny Mercer (41)
Mantovani (45)
Bix Beiderbecke (47)
Noel Gay (52)
Out of whom four are composers or orchestra leaders and the other one has been dead for 19 years.
Not a complaint, just thought it was funny.

I relied on Wikipedia's
years in music lists for the old ones. I was relieved when I found one I'd heard of tbh.
It stopped being just singers when I found the line-ups less amusing without allowing a Bez or a Bonehead to slip through.
