moody blues vs rock hall of fame

i read an article on goldmine debating their inclusion. so far they have been snubbed. as with some bands they are loved or hated. they did have some rather iffy songs but i think they should be in. btw i am 58 and grew up listening to them, still like them and thought some people here would have some interesting opinions.i vote "in"

The Moodies are in my "hall" and that's all that matters to me. Yes, they were amazing and strung several tremendously beautiful and innovative albums together. By the way, for whatever it is worth, Charles Manson only let his posse listen to 2 bands. One was a little known band out of Liverpool and the other was the Moodies.

I love the Moodly Blues. I'd vote for them. They will eventually get in.

Moodies = deep
RRHOF = shallow

Dear Sloth-I was just telling an old college buddy that Fireball and Machine Head are 2 of the best-played records of this genre ever recorded. The interplay between Paice, Glover, Blackmore, and Lord is telepathic and, almost, jazz-like. Don't make groups like this anymore.

Kiss is the greatest band ever?! Gimme a break! Back in the day, no self-respecting rock 'n' rollwer would EVER listen to Kiss, much less pay to see them in concert. They were always a joke band. And a bad joke at that...

Oh yeah, The Moodies definitely belong in the RRHOF.
