Even the Beatles presence is pretty ambiguous - Eight years is a pretty good long time for a rock band. Yes, they produced a lot of material in a short time, but compared to Buddy Holly or the Sex Pistols, they were around for an eternity.

I\'m tempted to remove both, but I wanted to see if anyone had an argument for their inclusion before I did.

Similarly, Elliot Smith and the Red House Painters had careers spanning at around a decade. Bon Scott and the Smiths made half a decade. I don\\\'t think the purpose of this is to have just a collection of people who died young. For instance, in the twenty-seven club, Brian Jones put out fifteen albums in seven years before he died. Compared with Robert Johnson, who recorded two albums with about twenty five tracks, that\\\'s a freaking eternity.

The music section here is already extremely cluttered. If you put out a dozen albums over eight years, when most bands fold after three or four albums and half the time, you are scarcely short lived in the music industry.
