Philadelphia-area natives and Temple alums Hall & Oates will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year, along with Nirvana, Kiss and Peter Gabriel.

They deserve it. Music of my youth. Love it! Their Rendition of “You lost that loving feeling” is a great one.

“Hall & Oates...along with Nirvana, Kiss and Peter Gabriel.”

All worth picks, IMHO. I was never a huge fan of H&O, especially their MTV-era stuff. But I do recognize they are a talented duo, and certainly showed their musical longevity over the years. Plus, I absolutely love “Sarah, Smile.”

Of the others...

-Pete Gabriel has always been a favorite of mine, and though Genesis was more interesting (if not commercially successful) when he was with them.

-I hated KISS as a kid because of all the cheesy marketing, but they are a solid rock band with some great tunes.

-As for Nirvana, I liked them, but didn’t love them. I get they were the face of alternative in the 90’s, but I’ve always liked Alice in Chains and Mother Love Bone a lot better as far as the Seattle/Grunge scene went.

Next up - when the freak are we gonna get Rainbow into the RRHOF? Criminy, if Madonna and RUN-DMC are already in...

Until Grand Funk Railroad is inducted, the Rock and Roll Hall of Shame is a joke.

Except maybe with this one:

They also inducted Kiss and the E Street Band.

FWIU, Hall & Oats is the most successful duo ever.

I’ll have to go with “When The Morning Comes.”

[DemforBush]

They aren’t in???

I truly did not know that. Hard to imagine the first American band (no pun intended) to have 10 straight platinum albums not being inducted by now.

Jann Wenner is such a wienerhead.

Sorry, this one is best:
