Again, we see music causing BIG TROUBLE

[Tuxedo]

Supertramp belongs in there also.

Roseanna, Rosanna is also a bitter tweeter. Maybe they should get together again.

[Covenantor]

Thanks for the link.

The 2 min lead in ‘Africa’ is just brilliant...close your eyes and it’s the sound of rain...just finger snaps and slaps. Amazed how it was arranged to sound so random with that huge choir.

[Hatteras]

Yes, but that Cynthia Rhodes makes for a much better ‘Rosanna’ grrrrOWllll....

I discovered Perpetuum Jazzile about 7 or 8 years ago.

I spent the first night vegetating to everything I could find on youtube.

There's are a few documentary types on you tube that you can learn a bit about these folks as real people

[subterfuge]

Linda Ronstadt is in but not Grand Funk Railroad. Come on, man!

[blam]

"Yes, but that Cynthia Rhodes makes for a much better ‘Rosanna’ grrrrOWllll...."

Yup, I agree.

She also did the serious dancing in the movie, Flash Dance, not Jennifer Beals.

[lefty-lie-spy]

Right on, FRother. :)

It was pathetic how long it took Heart to get into the HoF, yet vapid Green Day was voted in the first year they were eligible.

Lukather’s best solo is The Tubes’ “Talk To Ya Later”

[dfwgator]

This is also Lukather

Let them in, let all of them in, it’s so “today”.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

I'm not really a big fan of Toto, though I don't really dislike them either. They are pretty much what everyone thinks they are- good musicians and a few catchy songs in the pop genre. I don't find them challenging or innovative, but basically pleasant. And to have a career over several decades should be pretty satisfying for the members.

As for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it's a ridiculous premise with an even more ridiculous organization running it. Toto is not the least bit harmed by being excluded.

[dfwgator]

I like the “Hydra” album, by far their most hard rocking album.

[HeadOn]

My introduction to Toto was hearing “Hold The Line” over the big speakers prior to a Ted Nugent concert! I was in college, and it was a great time in my life. Got the album as soon as I could.

I have seen some of her work before, and think she is quite entertaining

Frog Leap Studios covers Africa

Toto would fit right in with the stable of lame-os in the R&R HOF. Seriously, what treacly crapola they produced.
