Long live Rock? 2022 R&R HOF

@czarivey - what are 'recording industry artists' as opposed to others? How are you hearing this music to explore if the artists are not recording it? Seems to me that if you're recording your music and getting it released, you're a 'recording industry artist' in some form or another.

I don't like the concept of Halls of Fame or Grammies when it comes to the arts - shouldn't be a competition - but if there's got to be one, I think 'Popular Music Hall of Fame' would be more accurate and have fewer people complaining about the artists that are in there. 

Anyway, I voted for my selections yesterday! 

Recording industry standard artists are mostly in the major labels such as Atlantic, Capital, RCA etc... 

Other artists can't afford to go that way, but they're much better choice outside of recording industry standard. 

Both Cleveland and Nashville Halls totally downplay/ignore the two Jerry’s - Lee Lewis and Reed. That’s the end of their cred for me.

Nudie Cohn got more display in Nashville than either and he never recorded a lick.

Better off going to classic western movie making country for his exhibits, Lone Pine, CA.

Parton, Eminem, Ritchie - nominees for the R&R HOF? WTF was the nominating committee thinking! Smoking PCP? Might as well add Celtic Frost to the list!
