So many great singles and albums on there, I don't disagree with any picks. Finally Here's Little Richard gets inducted, it should've a long time ago. I hope his second album gets recognized soon also, since it's just as good as the debut but doesn't make it in those top 500 lists and didn't get a remaster yet.

I'm also surprised James Brown's and Bob Dylan's singles weren't inducted before. I'm also happy for Band On The Run, a real classic. All the other picks are good too nod

I was surprised about that too. But I understand they only induct 25 so yeah some classic songs from the modern eras don't always get instantly picked.

Oh that explains it then, although I still think those singles should've been picked before some other songs.

lol there's a lot of great music of different genres encompassing different decades so it'll always be difficult.
