Brian Mc Carthy Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Here is my list OF COURSE Raspberries Also BTO and Three Dog Night Allan Parsons Project should also be considered Because Three Dog Night did not write their own songs they have been ignored Thats the politics of the industry And its a bummer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkpat Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Chicago, Hollies, Monkees, and even though I'm not a big fan, I have to say Kiss for impact's sake. (Don't forget that Grandmaster Flash is in basically because of one rap song) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Mc Carthy Posted March 21, 2009 Author Share Posted March 21, 2009 Nice list blackhawkpat i am surprised i thought CHICAGO was in already And from my list Three Dog Night may have finally got in a few years ago I am not sure now I do know they were ignored for some time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sterling Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Zombies, Chicago, Hollies, Searchers, Raspberries, Turtles, Moody Blues....need I go on. It is just a travesty that Chicago and Hollies are not in.....Raspberries not far behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Davie Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 If the committee just STOPPED inducting rap acts altogether, and artists or bands who had one hit with lasting radio airplay at the most, then there would be a TON of openings.The Hollies top my list. They're the "Bert Blyleven" of rock & roll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Thanks blackhawkpat for the inductee list i will probaly be saying WHAT ?? as i read along like you did about Aretha before the Beatles Aretha got in before the Beatles because her eligibility (25 years after your first recordings, Aretha's first release was in 1960-61), predates the Beatles' first recording / eligibility.

Billy K. Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Aretha did record for Columbia, oddly enough, before the glory years at Atlantic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Harlock Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I'll second Cheap Trick. T-Rex is another one that definitely should be there. Better yet, who's in the hall that really doesn't belong there? Madonna for one. And The Beastie Boys (rap is not music!!! of ANY kind!!).
