I liked that song Jane did with Sparks.

While I like and respect their music, (Go-Gos), I agree. Blue Oyster Cult should have been inducted years or, now, decades ago.

The Shaggs from Fremont New Hampshire were an all girl band from the late 1960s. They wrote their own songs, and played the instruments, and were popular among fans of avant-garde rock and Frank Zappa. Their music are definitely an acquired taste.

Their first album, and mercifully perhaps their only album from that time.

The Shaggs were the worst bad ever. Philosophy Of The World was awful on every level imaginable.

I know. I owned a copy.

Semms to me, the Go Go’s got into the HOF because the PC crowd wanted to induct “girl group”.

“Diversity” and all that.

Yeah, I agree. HOF is kinda ho hum.

When everyone is in an exclusive club, then it’s no longer exclusive

I know. They actually were way ahead of their time and place, playing complex, avant-garde rock. It is hard to know if they just fell into the sound they produced, or actually composed it. But Zappa was right.

I’m so sorry. Therapy is available for that kind of trauma.

One hit? LOL!

Their debut album hit #1, second album #8. We Got the Beat, Vacation, Our Lips Are Sealed, Head Over Heels, Turn to You....

And Gina Schock was a seasoned professional drummer when she joined. She whipped the band into shape. Truly underrated.

That’s not true. Belinda Carlisle was the drummer for the Germs under the name Dottie Danger.
