You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Chaka most definately but I don't think she really cares. She said she thought she had already been inducted lol . But, I'm really surprised they haven't inducted Miss Ross. eek

Joan Jett is already in the American R&RHOF as a member of The Runaways. But I would like to see her inducted as a member of Joan Jett & The Blackhearts.

ain't that the truth. lol



As I have said before, An artist life works represents them... anything else is a matter of opinion and taste. If the late great Barry White never makes it into "the Hall" would it matter? I'd think not...
