Future Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Nominees Who Will Outrage the Purists
If you’re one of those people who complains every year that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducts people who don’t fit your definition of rock and roll, it’s time to give it up. I mean, Michael Jackson’s in there. Tupac, Madonna, ABBA . . . and Dolly Parton’s going in this year. At this point, it is what it is.
