Yep, @verithingeoff got it I think.

OK. Lionel Bart.

But please explain the first clue for me.

PS: I only got it after Googling "Simpson composed various music" / "Bart composed various music", so I didn't really "Rebus" it.

 

Lionel, a maker of toy electric trains. Apparently still in business. Lots of info on the ‘net.

 

The Three Tenors. Pavarotti, Domingo, Carreras.

 

Can I give myself a star?

Rooney College (Roanoke College)?

 

You will be gobsmacked when you find out how close you are. With the hint I might have decided to give you

Okay! First hint. Phonetically, you are close to the right pronunciation of the name. But this rebus is about a person, not a building, or a place. Oh, and North American person, by the way.

 

Goodoh.

That narrows it down for an Aussie. Only one of 579,000,000.

Now let me think on it.

 

This might be a dead giveaway away, but give it a try.

 

Roone Arledge. But wouldn't have got it without Jim....

 

Well, maybe I should stick to more main stream personages. But those who follow this forum continue to astonish me with their perspicacity! Roone Arledge is correct! Thirty years ago, when he was a prominent television personality, this one might have been easier. This star will be shared between @JimInOz and @M’Bob.

 

Here's a fairly easy one for your lunch break.

 

No Country for Old Men?

 

Close to expiration date...here she is:

 

It’s not Ike, so it must be Tina, Turner that is?
