Deep Purple are well known, but not necessarily the singer, most people on the street couldn't name him, even if they know Deep Purple or White Snake!
Tony Mowbray... now I'm a Hibs fan, so know him well, but he isn't hugely known in football terms. There's plenty of managers that have managed in EPL for a few years without anyone really noticing them, I feel he is one of them.
Paul Rogers had a one hit wonder, then just toured with Queen...
"An astronaut," which you can't even name!
Now, I'm not saying James is very famous, because he isn't, but It's not like It's a massive insult to the other people you've listed.
P.s I'm 23, I do take notice of a lot of old music, but the majority of X-Factor fans won't, so the people you've listed will be unknown to most of the fans.
