Aren't the Moody Blues a bit overdue?  And perhaps the Cars too.

^ ^^ Yeah, but "The Any Kind of Popular Music Hall of Complete Bullsh*t" just doesn't roll off the tongue quite the same.

Nina Simone is probably the most rock'n'roll of the list tbh

Radiohead and Depeche Mode makes the most sense to me.

^ what's so wrong with BJ and JP? :)

^Where does one start...? How about they are both second rate rock bands.
Of all the bands that have been overlooked in the past and now......does anyone even need to ask that question?

^ Judas Priest is not second rate if you ask me.
As for BJ, I might agree with you, although there are some songs of theirs I like.

Every year the R'n'R hall of fame sparks controversy with their choices, they must like the attention.
