Musically related Underground stations

Valley_floyd_red

I once took an very long tube journey from Turnpike Lane to Heathrow airport. During that time I tried to name as many underground stations after bands, songs or musicians. It's quite a good game to occupy the mind while trying to avoid looking at anyone in the eye. Here are some of the obvious ones:

Waterloo
Baker Street
Angel((s) Robbie Williams)
All Saints (The Band)
Mile End (Pulp)


Any more?
