Unless my eyes are failing me (always a possibility), I can't believe
that nobody until now has mentioned this one:
The Replacements-Alex Chilton
Also saw a Ben Folds "Fred Jones" example back in a previous post;
he's also had songs titled "Alice Childress", "Eddie Walker", "Where's
Summer B?" (Summer B. being a person), and used the full name
"Reinhold Messner" in an album title.
Another one that comes to mind is Better Than Ezra, who had a track
called "Allison Foley" on their criminally overlooked "How Does Your
Garden Grow?", a 1998 album that is so much better than the rest of
their oeuvre.
