#[Spotify] Search results for Artists are weird

Searching for 'ZZ top' gets some very very odd results in Spotify.
I kind of understand 'AC/DC' (similar music), but the second row has results that make zero sense.
If MA is relying on Spotify for artist searches then it may be useful to find a way to make them more reliable?
It's not a big deal when searching from the front-end as you can spot mistakes, but when an automation triggers a search things may get weird.
Screenshots show result of 'ZZ Top' filtered by artist in MA and Spotify itself.
We can't fix Spotify, but maybe we can find a way to improve results in MA ?

(tested with MA 2.4.0b12 and Spotify as the sole provider of music. It may or may not apply to other music-providers.)

What is wrong ? The first/top result is the correct one so I dont see any issue here

It's the other results that don't make any sense to me as there is no clear relation to the search.
