Obviously the Smiths problem is a very major discredit to the Hall, exactly as the rappers they let in are.

And of course the first two albums are tops, but then you have The Masterplan, some fantastic sides, and the other albums. As I mentioned, had I been allowed final edit, it would have been EASY to re-assemble AT LEAST 4 other untouchably amazing albums.

Rock is NOT dead

Commercial radio went to hell a long time ago, that's the issue

Great new rock all the time
- NEW recently ...... among other legends
Foo Fighters
Who
Paul McCartney
AC/DC
Cheap Trick
Van Morrison

AND who is almost alone in keeping me optimistic about good rocking for the future

RIVAL SONS
Put them in the Hall right now, like they were Bobby Orr

Established bands putting out new music doesn't count as they're most likely already in.

of all those, only 1 is a new band.

regardless, thanks! going to give Rival Sons a listen.
