EagleEye0 Posted September 10, 2005 Report Share Posted September 10, 2005 Some Bands have around for a long time an accomplished a lot in their talenetd musical careers. However, some bands have been given a raw deal and have not been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, although they have the music and influence to supports their nomination. I DO Know the Criteria to be Inducted into the RRHF. 25 or more years after first album release, have a profound influence of rock and roll, and perpetuate music. U2 released Boy in 1980 exactly 25 years before they got inducted into the hall? Great band, I love them, way to early to be in the hall though. Bands Who Deserve To be Inducted: Deep Purple Emerson lake, and palmer Yes GENESIS Black Sabbath The Stooges King Crimson Van Halen T. Rex (maybe, not sure) Steppenwolf (maybe, not sure) Lynyrd Skynyrd RUSH (definitely THIN LIZZY Anyone else who deserve or doesnt deserve to be in the rock and roll hall of fame?

bazooka Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 Here's the Hall of Fame's list of all inductees and a possibly easier-to-read version from Wikipedia. I don't find Steve Miller Band or Jethro Tull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I feel that all the artists who are currently in the hall, are well-deserved, seeing as how there's a waiting list that makes it near-impossible for most talented acts to be inducted. Since the music industry has been going at a downhill slope over the past 2 generations, this should leave more open slots for many others to fit in & eventually fill the void.

blind-fitter Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 But what's the point of it all really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 It's just to honor people with a measure of immortality, I suppose. People will remember The Beatles, Zeppelin, Aretha, etc., but what about: Jimmy Yancey Hank Ballard Milt Gabler The Orioles Hal Blaine I know who these people are, but I'm a musician mixed with a bit of musicologist. In 50 years most people won't bring up Hank Ballard in casual conversation like they (probably) will Elvis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blind-fitter Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Hmmmm...fair point, Sole-Man. I'll think again. How about Motorhead, for inventing "speed-metal"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 I'd love to see that performance, I can tell you that. That thing on Lemmy's face will require an additional induction, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 what about: Jimmy Yancey Hank Ballard The Orioles In 50 years most people won't bring up Hank Ballard in casual conversation like they (probably) will Elvis. True, but this is stated for nearly 75% of the artists in the Hall; Hank Ballard & The Orioles had a lot of accountability during the debut of rock & roll music & were a decisive aid in crafting it's early ideal sound. I'm sure the Rock Hall of Fame has selected most of the Jukebox Heros from the 50's & early 60's era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadows Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 by the way...random wondering...when was the rock and roll hall of fame started and who invented it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 by the way...random wondering...when was the rock and roll hall of fame started and who invented it? Jann Wenner (creator of Rolling Stone Magazine) started the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1983; then three years later they made their first inductees list with Chuck Berry being the first ever nominee. It wasn't until 1995 that the exhibition building was opened next door to the Cleveland Browns football stadium, after winning a National poll to be placed in the birthplace of Rock & Roll's region Ohio.
