Led Zeppelin didn’t start until around 1970. Also I think deep purple may in fact be in. In fact in checking yes they are in. Ok good. Music is so subjective to everybody. I've never been anywhere in my life where someone said "crank up some Joni Mitchell," yet she was inducted in the RRHOF before many of my favorites. I'm glad the building is here in Cleveland, but I simply can't get on board with many of the acts they inducted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That goes to the whole genre thing where I guess they spread it out.....I think Joni can be considered a folk act, more or less, yet she is in but Peter, Paul, and Mary are not? (but my wife might tell you that you are wrong about people clamoring for Joni Mitchell. If you were a stringy haired chick that went to college in the 70s...you might do just that) I'm glad the building is here in Cleveland, but I simply can't get on board with many of the acts they inducted. Well, as noted, some may not be on board with some of the acts that are your favorites. But I do get it. In what I think is a similar genre (go ahead....some one of you smartsses tell me I am wrong..these bands are nothing alike. Maybe that is true, but they are from the same era:). Depeche Mode is now in, but Tears for Fears is not? I know tons and tons of good songs by Tears for Fears, but not a one by Depeche Mode.

The greatest heavy metal band and heavy metal influence had to wait until 2006. What a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
