Not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame but should be! - Classic Rockers Network2024-03-28T21:02:43Zhttps://www.classicrockersnetwork.com/forum/topics/not-in-the-rock-and-roll-hall-of-fame-but-should-be-1?commentId=1599616%3AComment%3A118876&feed=yes&xn_auth=noThe lists are all good folks.…tag:www.classicrockersnetwork.com,2014-03-04:1599616:Comment:2067602014-03-04T03:01:34.919ZEdhttps://www.classicrockersnetwork.com/profile/EdGoodale
<p>The lists are all good folks. The RRHOF is nothing but a joke. If the Loving Spoonful and ABBA are in, and Tull, Rush, and the others mentioned are NOT in, it isn't worth having. I wouldn't even visit and give them my money when I was in Cleveland. PLUS, a friend of mine lives next door to Rickey Metlock and he said that when you get inducted the band has to pay a "admission" fee. The British Hall is a better hall. Sorry, this is a sore spot with me. </p>

<p>The Monkees should be inducted into the RNRHOF because of their great music, classic TV show & far out movie Head. They started out as a made for TV band that became a real one & Mike Nesmith is a country rock pioneer before the Flying Burrito Bros. or Charlie Daniels. Ted Nugent deserves to be inducted along with GFR, Kiss & REO Speedwagon.</p>

<p>Hi Les Yes long overdue!! The Moodies should be in the R&R Hall of Fame. I have no idea why they aren't, it boggles the mind. Hopefully the powers that be will get there act together and right this wrong.</p>

<p>As we know the R and R HoF is run by Rolling Stone. Had a look at one of the voluminous tomes of rock album history. BOC given some slight attention - Styx were machine gunned with 1 star ratings - they looked like bullet holes. Rush albums average 2 1/2 stars out of 5. ELP were written out of the picture entirely. Jethro Tull did ok but 2- 3 star ratings from Rolling Stone is not going to put them into the HoF. Spirit were also omitted entirely. There's probably more "valid" criteria that…</p>

There's probably more "valid" criteria that will affect all the other artists and their achievements but this is the source of all this. Rolling Stone = Priests of Syrinx! (This is not a compliment).</p>

<p>Blue Oyster Cult should be there for Astronomy alone. Not to mention how they ended up "owning" Born To Be Wild (due respect to the Steppenwolf original) - some of the concert versions are killer jams as the song moved with them from B side to Broadside!
