Your 2019 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Actually a pretty nice selection. No hip hop or rap artists this time

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

I get what many of the posters are saying about Janet Jackson, but I can at least see a reasonable argument for her as a 90's R&B artist. R & B is at least in the same family tree as Rock and Roll.

Fucking hip hop and rap are NOT

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Sad that @Carnzo and the Employed Jamaicans didn't even get a nomination

Once I got the haircut I realized I wasn't going in.
But I rock the mullet like nobody else.

I don’t know about that. Run DMC, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, all rocked 2000x harder than Janet Jackson.

 

[DragonfromTO]

Are we talking about the Hall in general too then? I can't take it seriously without T. Rex

 

[Kace-1]

For me, the biggest snub was Kraftwerk.

 

[GNG]

Why aren't Paul Revere and the Raiders in?

 

[Voltaire26]

The Cure, Def Leppard, Janet Jackson, Radiohead, Roxy Music, Stevie Nicks, and the Zombies. Good list all around and of course I'm happy about Def Leppard.

None of them are worthy ... the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should be for the elite only and those responsible for the creation of Rock Music.

 

[TheDayMan]

Good timing.

The Cure finishing new album, confirm 2019 tour dates

 

[beardown07]

The next inductees should be Jethro Tull and Steppenwolf, or the whole thing can fuck itself with an AIDS infected cactus.

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

I'm surprised most of the list did enough to make it.

I'm going to have to check out Roxy Music. I've never even heard of them though I'm guessing I know some of their songs.

 

[tnapucco]

Near 50 years of music and you still deny Kraftwerk & DEVO?

the fuck is wrong with you people?

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

I'm not sure I know any roxy songs after looking into it.

More Than This?

More Than This?

I listened to that one. Didn't ring a bell.

 

[Melman]

Give "Love is the Drug" a listen...

Can't forget Both Ends Burning.

Also, anything from their "For Your Pleasure" (which is my personal fave), "Siren", "Country Life" & "Manifesto" albums.

Phil Manzanera is definitely one of the most underrated guitarists/composers in the biz.

 

[Sir Robin Of Camelot]

This hurts my Penis of Christmas pasts, but Stevie Nicks going first ballot as a solo artist is lame.

Yeah. One great album, one pretty good album and a whole bunch of “meh” doesn’t equal Hall of Fame. I love Stevie but there are far more deserving candidates out there. Like Devo.
