I got 45, but there were about 30 or so I couldn't get.

By the way I think I was wrong on Tom Jones.
This is a fun game! Maybe someone could rewrite the names listwise so it's easier to read. I'm too lazy at the moment.

Somebody tell Bob Finn* we need him.

I saw Yeah Yeah Yeahs in there and a lot of the MC5, Jackie Wilson, Muddy Waters, Billie Holiday...and my favorite band at the moment, Talking Heads!
I thought that was the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, I wasn't sure.

My friend says that's Nina Simone after Zappa and that my Ronnie Specter was right. Quote and edit in your additions.
I'm pretty bad at these types of things, but I think that's Nirvana again (or Krist Novoselic, anyway) at 3:44 -- between Stevie and Frank at the end of the list.
Cool video... I didn't see Paul Simon, but wasn't those little black kids walking around @ the 3:42 mark from Simon's "Diamonds on the Souls of their Feet" video?
Before they show Beck for a second time, there's a woman playing a violin, I think that's the chick from the Corrs and before that it's Birdman. I think that's his name.
There's a 2nd version of this video that looks very similar to the Beatles Free as a Bird vid. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6F_F4zroP-E"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6F_F4zroP-E" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> Here's a live performance on some japanese tv show. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QQwAWmBIP4I"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QQwAWmBIP4I" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
