For those thinking, "Why is this 1 or 2 hit group now in the Hallowed Halls?", reading the Wiki and seeing how big an influence they were can be mighty enlightening. And BTW Lou Reed was long over-due for this recognition...not that I'm kvetching about the others...
2015 ROCK & ROLL HALL of FAME inductees - CRAZY-HORSE - 26-04-2015
being influential is,IMO, more valuable than success on the charts...
we can even put Lou Reed in that catagory, couldnt we???
i can accept why all of these artists have been inducted except one....Ringo Starr.
sure, as part of the Beatles, but as a solo artist,not really, but hey, i dont make the rules or decide who gets inducted so good for him
