Ahmet Ertegun and Jerry Wexler hated Hound Dog. And they get a wing named after them because....?
Did one or both of them donate money for the wing? That does seem to motivate a lot of Hall's dumber decisions.
I like their stated reason for including REM. Candadians complained they hadn't been inducted. And a lot of Canadians take short vacations in nearby Cleveland. The voting has become silly for who to induct, between bad choices and it being an in crowd voting for their buddies. JMHO
