LOL. I just checked the mods link and I think those who feel they know what rock is will be rather surprised to see the names who have been inducted into the hall of fame. Thanks to the mod I can rest my case! :-) ( and feel very old!)
Frank Zappa!
Worst Concert I ever went to (he was booed off the stage, Muddy Waters Opened and Closed that Concert), don't know a soul that has ever owned a Record, 8 track, Cassette or CD of or by Frank Zappa and he is in the Hall of Fame?
Name recognition?
Go to the site and see it for yourself. Each of those people inducted do have a link to rock & roll. For Pat Boone, his link is that he changed the lyrics of black R&R songs. Some legacy, huh? I would rather see Lawerence Welk in the hall of fame. At least his singers didn't change the lyrics to songs when they sang their version of R&R.
