Maybe Alzheimer's has destroyed my "brain", but that's the first time I ever heard of "blue-eyed soul", Miss Bellissima. If people used that expression in the 60's I must've been asleep.

Decent punk band. I like a lot of what didn't get played on the radio.

While I personally don't like them, they were pivotal in the history of punk and rock, and were a huge band worldwide.

You need to get out more.

Pete's out. They caught him betting on which songs would make the Top Forty.

Wooohooooooo!!!

I'm surprised Elvis Costello got in this soon, but he deserves it. I've been a big fan since my college days in the late 70's.

Outstanding list. Everyone got in that I wanted this year except for Black Sabbath. I saw Elvis Costello and the Attractions about a month ago. They were great. AC/DC, the Clash, and Costello have been in heavy rotation in my CD player for months now. Can't wait to see the induction ceremony on TV.

I recall the term "Blued-eyed soul" and it was attributed to The Righteous Brothers sound.( which was part of Phil Spector's "wall of soind")
I am a long-time Righteous Brothers fan,( the name righteous brothers supposedly came about because someone heard them sing and said...That's Righteous, Brother), and it's nice to see them get into the HOF.

They're all good choices, but I don't consider AC/DC "heavy metal" and for the Hall of Fame director to call them that indicates she knows more about museum administration than rock music.

Hey, it's picky, but if we're stuck with these labels, we might as well use them properly. ;-)

THE CLASH????    Those boys Rock!!

The king called up his jet fighters
He said you better eaarn your pay
Drop your bombs between the minarets
Down the Casbah way
As soon as the shareef was
Chauffeured outta there
The jet pilots tuned to
The cockpit radio blare
As soon as the shareef was
Outta their hair
The jet pilots wailed
