Extremely disappointed, bordering on outrage. IMO the credibility of the Hall has been suspect for a long time, so I should not be surprised.  I know someone who shares your sentiments as they feel Little Feat should have been nominated long ago . Missy Elliot? Not even Rock and Roll…… |

Sheryl Crow for sure. Willie Nelson, ok. That's it for me. I was lucky enough to visit the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame the year it opened. Fantastic.

I didn’t see the final vote figures. How far did Warren Zevon miss out by ?

Update- Warren is now up to 3rd on the fan ballot. There is a story that Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone who has some high level position at the Rock Hall had conspired to keep Warren out base on some past slight. Looks like we'll get Warren in next year shoes. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation removed Rolling Stone magazine co-founder Jann Wenner from its board of directors, the organization said Saturday. The Rock Hall referred reporters to a publicity firm that confirmed in an emailed statement Wenner's removal from the board of the organization he helped found in 1983. The news comes one day after The New York Times published an interview with Wenner regarding his forthcoming book, “The Masters,” which contains interviews with musicians — all white men — including Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Bruce Springsteen and Bono. Wenner was asked why the book did not include interviews with women or people of color. "Just none of them were as articulate enough on this intellectual level," Wenner is quoted as saying about the women of rock. |

The phone don't ring
And the sun refused to shine
Never thought I'd have to pay so dearly
For what was already mine
For such a long, long time

I saw Cher on the James Corden show. Pop music was her thing but I did like a handful of her songs. Interesting life. I agree that Dude is POS. So he's saying there are no women smart enough to be in the R&R HOF?
