Grand Funck Railroad, Rare Earth, Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, Jim Croce, Los Lobos, Chicage, Patty Labelle, The Stylistics, The Isley Brothers, Chaka Khan, Tina Turner,Sonny and Cher, George Michael,Phill Collins, Wings, Genisus, The Comdores, and Ringo Starr all should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame each of these groups have held our attention with their sound and music.Each for these groups and individuals have made us party, dance, and cry.Theses bands at various times held the pulse of America at their gutiar strings and drum beat. They should be part of the band called The Hall of Fame.

Music in our day and time not only touches us spirtualy but it also touches usthrough vision thank to MTV and BET and a varity of other venues. It is a good thought and idea that we as a listener to music do all that we can to see that bands, such as be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
A few years ago I had the opportunity to walk the Hall. WOW is the first words to come to mimd. Seeing the bed that John and Yoko shared and pleaded their cause to me was truely inspiring. I remember looking at the hand writen words of Imagine written on a napkin and at the words of Bob Dylan The words wrote down from an idea or thought brings reason as to why that these individuals and groups should be in the Hall.
Each of these groups words and music have and still do inspired us and helped us get throug hard times. As I watch the induction activities on telivision I ask my self why have these groups been denied
the right to be inducted? The answered is that the goverrning body who choses which various artist and groups that is to be inducted have a closed mind.Those groups and others that deserve the right to be there are missed and left behind. Fortunately there are venues like this that give fans of these group the oportunity to present their side to inspire the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to vote these groups in.
I must admit that the idea that groups like these are not in as yet. It also is a loss for many of the music lovers like me who visit the Hall each daydo not have the opportunity to hear, feel and in some instanes feel the music that these talented individuals produced.
It is very troubling that the music these great groups continualy go unnoticed. The very idea that they are not in is mind boggling because they should be there. These bands and individuala deserve to be there.
