What are the chances for future artists being inducted into the Rock
and Roll Hall of Fame?
My criteria is very simple: I've ranked only artists
that aren't eligible yet. Remember that to be nominated an artist's
first recording must've been released 25 years ago. All of these are eligible in
2003 and beyond.
After each acts' name you'll see the year they're eligible,
their chances of induction (from 0, no chance - 10, bet the house), and a simple
Yes or No as to whether I would vote for them. Remember the 0-10 is a guess at
whether the artist will be inducted. It is not
a personal
preference. That is what my vote is about.
Here's one thing to remember when
mulling over my inductee numbers. The Hall voter's are made up of critics and
Industry personnel.
Some acts weren't critic favorites but are loved by
Music Industry executives, producers, etc. This is one of the most overlooked
aspects that Hall watchers miss when wondering about an acts' chances.
My email address is seeno99@aol.com if you think I'm
missing an artist, want more info on the artist or have questions.
On my
They Deserve
To Be Inducted page you will find names of artists that are already
eligible as of 2005. All of the names would get my vote.
Please note:
some of the eligibility dates may be off a year or two. I went with Single
releases as well as CD's.
