Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
Lou Reed

I could see these groups getting in Green Day, NIN, War, SRV and the Butterfield Blue Band.

 

[Disgustipated]

Green Day, NIN & nwa will get in.

 

[Adre]

I'd say Lou Reed was the most influential of that group.

 

[Disgustipated]

I'd say Lou Reed was the most influential of that group.

Yeah, didn't him and sting get in with their main bands already?

 

[pointless]

lou, the smiths and kraftwerk are the ones i like the best from that list. nwa is alright and a fond memory from my youth, but c'mon, man.

 

[RedAllan]

I think Stevie Ray will get in.

 

[pointless]

probably, but fuck him anyway.

Influence, record sales for the genre.

 

[pointless]

and what genre is that again? look, they're great, but either rename the fucker or start making sense. hip hop aint fucking rock n' roll.

Hey, I don't make the rules. I agree with you but plenty of r&b artists are in there.

 

[Stewart_Pidd]

why wasn't Garnate on that list bro?

Stew

Don't think Jann Wenner is on Lit bro

 

[Stewart_Pidd]

Green Day, NIN & nwa will get in.

I think Chic or The Spinners have a chance. Nile Rodgers is the man bro!

Stew

 

[spacekowboy]

How SRV wasn't already in the all is beyond me.

Also, NIN and Greenday? C'mon, man!

 

[spacekowboy]

Also, Sting is an enormous douchebag.

 

[Purple Haze]

Where is Cheap Trick?
Where are the Doobies?

 

[pointless]

Where is Cheap Trick?
Where are the Doobies?

wait, you aren't holding? shit.

 

[Stewart_Pidd]

where is Oingo Boingo bro?

Stew

 

[Vikingstone]

Where is Cheap Trick?
Where are the Doobies?

Cheap Trick - yes.

Doobies - no.

 

[Vikingstone]

Also, Sting is an enormous douchebag.

This here...is simply a fact.

 

[Not Normal]

I think Chic or The Spinners have a chance. Nile Rodgers is the man bro!

Stew

Nile is the man. He's still out there doing it, too, all while staving off cancer.

Where is Cheap Trick?
Where are the Doobies?

Cheap Trick TOTALLY should be in. So great.

where is Oingo Boingo bro?

Stew

indeed

Cheap Trick - yes.

Doobies - no.

agree

I'd like to see Chic, and Bill Withers get in. I think NIN have done a lot of interesting music, and taken a relatively useless genre and made it listenable. NWA were ground breakers and should be there too.

The Marvelettes are an absurd omission. Should have been in long ago.

Kraftwerk, I thought had already been admitted, so that's a surprise.

These all seem like reasonable choices to me, unlike some recent admissions. Lou and SRV are clearly the top of this class.

 

[spacekowboy]

I know I'm a tad biased with what i am about to say here because I would like to kick Tent Reznor in the throat, but if they're now at the age of admitting 90's bands, how does NIN get in before Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Rage Against The Machine, motherfucking Tool?

 

[Disgustipated]

STP was terrible. What do you have against NIN? They do everything well, especially live.

25 years need to pass after the release of their first album. also, they need to not suck.
