As we get closer to the 2018 induction of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, we ask ourselves; how would you fell, after selling millions of albums and appearing on the cover of every music magazine – not to yet to be in the Rock and Hall of Fame? The list of deserving artists not yet admitted should shame the Hall and its selection committee. Here are a few that are still not yet in the Hall of Fame…
T Rex and the Monkees have yet to enter the hall, each were amazing and recorded over a long period of time. The Doobie Brothers definitely belong in the hall; it’s the biggest omission on many critics’ minds. The Motor City’s MC5, Frigid Pink, Grand Funk Railroad (okay, Flint) and of course Herman’s Hermits belong.
Bad Company and Huey Lewis and the News have contributed clean and different sounds for over 40 years, and their music is still relevant today. Jethro Tull needs to be in the Hall simply because Ian Anderson brought a flute to the party, and not only did we open our ears and accept the sound, we loved the rock they brought.
