Rock & Roll. SMFH. Might as well rename it the “Music” Hall of Fame.

pretty weak, starting to look like the Baseball Hall of Fame where anyone who every got a hit by a pitch is nominated.

Now, I’m a native Texan, but what is Willie Nelson doing in that list for the “Rock and Roll” Hall of Fame?

I’m not sure that I’d put Willie Nelson in a “Rock and Roll” HoF.

As far as the rest of that list goes....Warren Zevon was good but didn’t have much of a career after 1980 or so. The Spinners had some success and I can sing along with a few of their songs (as long as I’m in the shower and nobody is listening). The rest of them, well, I don’t have any of those albums.

Foreigner and Styx are still the Rodney Dangerfield’s of the RRHoF.

I thought Warren Zevon was already in. Maybe he didn’t have enough lawyers, guns and money.

I’ve heard of or have every album/CD of those groups on the list except for A Tribe Called Quest. Never heard the group mentioned once in my life.

Again, no Carol Kaye or Glen Campbell. They played on thousands of songs - most un-credited.

Also if you can nominate Willie Nelson, then you can nominate Glen Campbell. Willie is a fine guitarist, but Glen could play circles around him.

Every year, we’re reminded that there is something that calls itself the “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.”

Had to do a search but A Tribe Called Quest is a hip hop group.

My take:

Cyndi Lauper - OK
Kate Bush - OK
Sheryl Crow - Meh
Missy Elliott - Who?
Joy Division/New Order -Yes
Iron Maiden - Yes...Only if there’s a picture of Bill and Ted (”put them in the iron maiden”)
George Michael - Ugh..nope
Willie Nelson - nope...C&W HOF
Rage Against The Machine - OK
Soundgarden - Yes
The Spinners - Yes
A Tribe Called Quest - Who?
The White Stripes - Who?
Warren Zevon - Who?

White Stripes? They had like one record and one hit. Weak.

There are few things less relevant than the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Joy Division/New Order should have been years ago. Cyndy Lauper?
