John Prine, Stevie Nicks, Def Leppard among 15 acts nominated for Rock Hall of Fame induction - Los Angeles Times John Prine, Stevie Nicks, Def Leppard among 15 acts nominated for Rock Hall of Fame induction — Los Angeles Times

 

An absolute joke. John Prine.....but no Dave Matthews Band. No Alice in Chains, no Smashing Pumpkins, no Soundgarden. But thankfully we have Rufus featuring Chaka Kahn!!!

 

The Cure
Todd Rundgren
Radiohead
Def Leppard

 

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame passes on Dave Matthews Band and Beck

 

And the continuing march of the great, uncriticizable Dear Leader Janet Jackson continues.

 

Looking at the list, I actually think there’s some well deserved nominees this year.

For me I’d like to see inducted
MC5
Def Leppard
Kraftwerk
Todd Rundgren
LL Cool J

Rage will eventually get in but imo some of the artists on the ballot should get in first.

 

The Cure
Radiohead
Devo
Todd Rundgren
The Zombies
Def Leppard

 

pissed that Todd is on the list
what is next Brian Eno?

 

I like Stevie, but besides Bella Donna what has she done as a solo artist?!

 

Roxy Music
Radiohead
The Zombies
The Cure
Def Leppard

 

Remember, this is supposed to be the "Hall of Fame." In my opinion, with each passing year, there are less and less candidates who are worthy. Sure, everyone on this list made some kind of name for themselves, which is a credit to them in a very tough industry. But "Hall of Fame" level? Todd Rundgren is my only choice from this list.

 

The farce continues.

 

The Zombies absolutely belong.

 

The Cure
Radiohead
Kraftwerk
Roxy

With all respect as good as Odessy and Oracle was - there's so many records that defined that sound and I can't feel like it was a major influence going forward - but in terms of just, a nice band, sure.

The Cure makes it, however they aren't the first one of their era that should be there... at least Joy Division and probably Ultravox (influence, not really the band itself mind you) should come before.

Finally, Radiohead wins for nice albums consistently, Kraftwerk for... a lot of things of course, and Roxy deserves the mention for consistency and trendsetting genre characteristics of the later era of glam rock and ahead.

 

Jethro Tull will never get in...

 

MC5
Roxy
Kraftwerk
Radiohead
The Cure

 

I guess I'll pick:

Zombies

Roxy Music

Devo

The Cure

Todd Rundgren

 

don't forget LL and Tupac

 

So, they're back with their "NO PROG ROCK IN HALL OF FAME" law

 

Easily the best nominee class in years.

 

A nice group of nominees this year. I would put all of these artists in without hesitation...

Roxy Music
The Cure
Radiohead
Devo
Kraftwerk
Todd Rundgren
The Zombies
MC5

 

At this point, Ian Anderson probably loves and embraces being the ultimate Rock iconoclast and outsider.
After all,
the wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a brick.

 

Still no Monkees?

 

the guess who not worthy-grand funk- love-mountain- there are a lot more who should be in before this batch

 

That’s a glaring omission IMO.
