I wonder if they could add Lionel Richie and The Pointer Sisters, who both liked to do country songs. Richie also wrote one of the biggest country songs of the 80s: Lady by Kenny Rogers. And he produced some other country hits for Rogers and a no. 1 country song.

I was thinking about Richie too. “Stuck on You” also crossed over and topped the C&W charts. But I think on the face of both careers, only Charles really deserves to be inducted into the HOF because an entire album was a mainstay in the genre, and had more impact when it came out during the Civil Rights era.
