We get there slowly.... :)

Artist 4 is an Australian garage band called the Hergs.

Song 11, "Cadillac" was the B-side of their 1967 single "Style of Love", and was a cover of Vince Taylor's twelve-bar blues song "Brand New Cadillac".

Nice job finding that one Tom!  There are a LOT of songs called "Cadillac!"

Just to get it out of my head. Is the 1 Song: Always crashing in the same car (D Bowie) and related to Artist 10?

No David Bowie songs in this puzzle.

No, but the title refers to a specific type of road.

Interstate?
(but I find a good dozen songs with the word in the title, and none of them seem to match the faces left in the artists pictures)

Not Interstate, but you're on the right road. Indeed, some Interstate highways are this type of highway.

Turnpike?

Also (sorry, you may have answered this earlier, but there are already 5 pages to search): Is the word part of the title or does it appear only in the lyrics?

Oh, you did answer this...

Could Artist #10 be David Grisman, to be matched with Tune #5 Blackberry Turnpike ?

Not him, and not that song. Can Grisman somehow be tied to David Bowie? Was he once a security guard?

I don't know if the Blackberry Turnpike actually exists.

The Turnpike in the song title in the puzzle is the turnpike pictured.

I'm still not quite sure where the picture comes from, but Artist 10 is Norman Carl Odam, better known as the Legendary Stardust Cowboy, or just "The Ledge". He links to Song 5, "New Jersey Turnpike".

David Bowie has said that the second name of his alter ego Ziggy Stardust was taken from the name of the Legendary Stardust Cowboy.
