Long live Rock? 2022 R&R HOF


If the name was just called Music HOF, maybe there wouldn't be such a stink?

No comment on the inductees, just questioning the R&R connection.

It's crap.  It totally ignores quality, and focuses on popularity/album sales.  No Squeeze, Graham Parker, Richard Thompson, Midnight Oil, The Smiths...; but a lot of 80s hair bands, rap and pop.  Did I mention that it's crap?  How about a thread for the all the great artists that will never get in!

As I do not listen to any radio as it is only small group of chosen ones. The R&R hall has  Morphed into another hollyweird production show!

I have my own Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, they can have theirs. Enjoy the music

I understand that I’m not following the directions specified in the original post but I rarely have done so in my life & I’m happy.

Until the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame includes & in fact dedicates at least half a “ show” to Ian Andersen & Jethro Tull, I can’t take anything it does seriously. He is supremely talented, singer, song writer, plays flute & guitar very well & has created a vast & diverse body of work for over 50 years!! From beautiful acoustic pieces to progressive hard rock he & Tull could do it all well!  
 

I’ve seen the band many times since the release of Aqualung & Thick as A Brick, Stand Up and many other albums w/ differing  band versions, solo & w/ a full symphony orchestra. All fantastic! 
 

Don’t miss them & him if you truly love rock & roll! 
 

PS- Martin Barre’s guitar solo on Aqualung through Volti Audio Horn speakers & a Rogers amp is so much fun & cracks me up. Close to live! What’s it’s all about!
