Thanks for sharing but I have always found the 'Rock & Roll Hall of Fame' to be quite a joke especially when you look at how long it took them to induct a band like Deep Purple who should have been inducted years ago. When Metallica was inducted the lead singer said if it wasn't for Deep Purple they wouldn't even be there and felt like crap for being inducted before them and Joe Elliott of Def Leppard has pointed out Def Leppard has sold more than half the artists and bands in the 'Hall of Fame' and get far more people attending their concerts yet they induct Pop artists, Rap artists, Disco artists and R&B artists that shouldn't even be in it and should have their own Hall of Fames. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame seems to be chosen on a select number of individual's personal tastes rather than record sales, number of hits, influence attendance records at concerts and the Country Music Hall of Fame, Canadian Music Hall of Fame and ARIA Hall of Fame are FAR more legitimate since they actually induct their biggest selling and most influential artists and bands.
They have a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame that has no Judas Priest, Uriah Heep, Nazareth, Scorpions, Def Leppard, REO Speedwagon, the Moody Blues, Tears For Fears, Saxon, Foreigner, Dio, Toto, Whitesnake, Night Ranger, Poison, Rainbow, Blue Oyster Cult, the Guess Who, .38 Special, Alan Parsons Project, Bachman Turner-Overdrive, Def Leppard, Human League, the Cars, Todd Rundgren, Triumph, Status Quo, Bon Jovi, Iron Maiden, Duran Duran, Grand Funk Railroad etc who all sold millions, had hits on radio and have released heaps of albums (Uriah Heep and Nazareth have released around 30 each and are still going) but they induct Abba, Donna Summer and NWA and there is talk of the Spice Girls and the Backstreet Boys going in??? I mean what is next? Aqua, Five, NSYNC, Britney Spears, Mandy Moore, Billie Piper, Westlife, Atomic Kitten, S Club 7?
