Cosmo Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I'm hoping for Janet Jackson... I got a job at the record label that's distributing her here in Brazil and it'd be great marketing for us with her new album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacardimayne Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 The R&R HoF shouldn't even be a thing anymore, so many artists have talked shit about it that it's lost all of its luster and cred It's gonna be hilarious when the Wu-Tang Clan is inducted in a few years Eminem's eligible in 2021, I fully expect him to be a first ballot inductee.

Georgy Zhukov Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 no love for the moody blues Hard to believe they weren't included. They want people who made money selling millions of records instead of influencing those who did. Took them long enough to get Black Sabbath in who should have been inducted in 1996. But they hate prog rock and heavy metal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalsh327 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Moody Blues had two eras to it, and they were successful in both. Janet's "influence" on artists..... like J-Lo or Rihanna? I'm fine with pop stars like Mariah and Whitney in there but the stuff they're talking about inducting Janet on, it's not a strong argument to induct her, especially if they're talking music video, choreography...... and wireless mics (Kate Bush did it years before). I don't think there's a "conspiracy" going on with the committee like some people think - BUT it's interesting that Tom Morello's part of the committee, and it's only because he toured with Springsteen that he's even there, at least he'll push for metal and punk bands to be inducted. I'm sure he pushed for Cheap Trick & Chicago (he's from Illinois..and more about the Terry Kath era as far as Chicago goes). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunsfanoldie Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Well now lets see who all comes from Deep Purple. I've heard its supposed to be the induction of the Mark I, II, and III lineups. I guarantee Coverdale and Hughes come if included, as they should be. Hope to see Glover and Paice and Gillian, and would expect to. Honestly, and I wouldn't put it past the Hall to have this in mind, but with Richie actually back "in rock" (get it?!) this year maybe even he shows. He's said in the past he wouldn't, but this is as best a chance as you could have. I wouldn't be surprised if the Hall tried to take advantage of it, for their own selfish gain of getting a reunion performance out of them. Don't expect Blackmore to perform, but I'm sure whoever performs will be good.As for the list, its fine. The best of what I liked from the nominations. I don't know if they are Hall Of Fame worthy, but I like all the groups, minus NWA, so I can't complain. Yes should have been included. Next to Deep Purple thats one of the biggest oversights. Fucking idiots that Hall is. No one sounds like Yes.I could accept NWA's induction a little more if they get Axl to intro them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixes Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Evans, gillan, coverdale, hughes, lord, glover, paice, blackmore are the ones being inducted 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Słash Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I do agree the list is good, but even NIN should have been there. I was waiting since quite a few years for Deep purple to be inducted cause I want to see who actually shows up. Btw has Led Zepp been inducted?

NWA is for mainstream gangsta rap what Black Sabbath and Zep were for mainstream hard rock. It brought the genre out of the shadows and into the world. It's hard to imagine a more deserving hip hop group than those guys.Great list this year. I'd have preferred to see NIN go in, but this is the first time in a long time that there is not a single group on the induction list that I feel shouldn't go in. I look forward to the ceremony this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
