2010 Rock & Roll HOF Nominees -- Potentially Righting Some Wrongs?

And no Ian Hunter/Mott...

Just Another Night, indeed.

 

Fair enough. And I didn't mean to imply she was a one hit wonder--just that her body of work doesn't measure up with what I would consider to be HOF credentials. She was big for about a 3 year period of 76-79(Hard for the Money notwithstanding, she really didn't register much during the 80s).

 

Mr H et al,

I can't see how Traffic gets in ahead of Mott or Love.

I can't see how Blondie gets in ahead of The Jam or Television.

i can't see how Brenda Lee is in ahead of Patsy Cline.

I can't see how Leonard Cohen doesn't need a ticket to get into the HOF. Canned Heat, Country Joe, Ten Years After, Grand Funk Railroad, The Shaggs, Black Oak Arkansas, Uriah Heep ... anybody else but not Cohen, thanks. Any Canadian knows The Guess Who should be rushed in.

Should Spinal Tap be recognized?

What's the music equivalent of SABR?

Rolling Stone and/or Jann Wenner.

 

Oh, still no Rush right?

 

Mr Fly,

BTW ... Mott the Hoople comeback concerts are nearing. A big deal. Evidently Buffin is pretty sick and will only be able to get behind the kit for a few songs. Pity they won't tour.

Mott The Hoople is so criminally underrated its ridiculous. That said, I kind of fear those reunion concerts. Ian Hunter is 70 for crissakes.

 

Morrissey has to get a look sooner or later.

 

Chart longevity means nothing. Look at a lot of bands in the RRHOF. They were productive for similar period to Summer or less. The Mama's & The Papa's, for example, were only relevant on the charts from 1965-67.

She should get in for Love To Love You Baby alone, the closest thing to pornography to ever hit the charts.

 

Appears so. Can't expect them to fix all their mis-steps in one year, I guess.

 

How many top-10 singles did Led Zeppelin have?

None?
One?

 

Yeah. What a blow.
