Sir Paul McCartney leads the way for musicians on the Sunday Times music industry rich list. The Beatles legend's million dollar fortune earned him third place. He was beaten by music mogul Clive Calder, who netted a staggering $3 billion when he sold his independent Zomba record label to BMG, and theatre composer Andrew Lloyd Webber who is worth $1.5 billion, who took first and second place respectively. Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie come in at number six on the list, with a combined $600 million, followed by Sir Elton John at seven, who is worth $450 million.Rolling Stones frontman Sir Mick Jagger is eighth with $445 million. The63-year-old is the richest of his bandmates, although guitarist Keith Richards, 63, closely follows with almost $400 million. Keith shares joint tenth place on the list with ageing Welsh singer Tom Jones.Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Phil Collins, David Bowie, and Barry and Robin Gibb also feature in the top 20. The list, which is compiled in two parts with a separate list for younger earners, is published in Britain's Sunday Times newspaper this weekend.
