I lke N.W.A., but how they could get in and not a band like YES is beyond my limited comprehension.
N.W.A. inducted to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
- Thread starter *Terence*
- Start date
Another year, another snub to Rory Gallagher.

Agreed 100% on Yes. Add Rush to that list as well.

Poor Chic.
They will get in in a roundabout way.

Agreed that something like this is long overdue. Public Enemy as well; definitely still under-recognized. Chuck D has some extremely intelligent social commentary out there that you rarely hear mention of these days.
And I agree with someone else, BÖC too
Edit: Oh hey, I'm behind the times; PE were inducted in 2013! Excellent.

Can I add Kraftwerk, Roxy Music, Zombies, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Gram Parsons and New Order to your list?
A Joy Division/New Order entry would make sense.
Well, someone finally woke up and inducted The Cure this year. Long overdue. Disintegration is easily one of the best albums, top to bottom, ever recorded.
The real question now is, who shows up with Robert Smith to accept the award? Half of the population of the UK have been in that band at one time or another. Maybe they should just give Smith the award and call it a day.
I wish the MC5 had made it. Some of the best music of the late 60s came out of Detroit garages. I'm indifferent to Janet Jackson and Stevie Nicks. I always thought Nicks was overrated, and her singing voice was annoying.

RUSH is in the Hall . . .
Nicks is getting in because men of a certain age all had fantasies of her for years, and some still do . . .
Janet Jackson? meh . . . put her producers in, instead.
MC5 not being in is criminal.
Heavy Metal not being repped in the Hall by Maiden or Priest is a joke. Scorpions and Saxon, too.
Also, where the heck are Thin Lizzy, the B-52's and DEVO?

I agree. I cant see how they can put Stevie Nicks in before Pat Benetar, IMO. It seems the hall is more of a click these days than an actual merit based system.

So many bands mentioned here. Not sure of the criteria for RR HoF but it has to be more than one or two big selling albums.
There has been some incredible music created over the past half-century.
