If i have to pick one......Steppenwolf

Not real thrilled with the selection

Mine's pretty much the same, with the exception that I voted for The J Geils Band instead of Steppenwolf.

Yup.

No other band on that list was more influential to future acts

Steppenwolf, Journey & Yes for sure. The others, not so much.

They need to rename it from the "Rock & Roll Hall of Fame" to the "Music Hall of Fame"
'Cause half the nominees on that list aren't Rock.

Actually, the fact that Bad Brains are on the list makes it a joke of the whole thing, and I like Bad Brains.

What a terrible selection. I'm surprised that all of those classic rock bands aren't already in there.

I've never even heard of some of those diversity candidates...

I have to go with ELO on that list.
Link Posted: 10/20/2016 10:41:14 PM EDT

Yes and ELO for sure.

No rap.

Phenomenal arrangement and the band is tighter than a 20 y/o Japanese girl's ass.

I'd personally like to see:

ELO

JOURNEY

THE CARS

YES

DEPECHE MODE

I could see JOAN BAEZ, PEARL JAM, KRAFTWERK and STEPPENWOLF being there, as well.

Honorable Mention for me, JANE'S ADDICTION.  Perry Farrell rocks.

Blew my little 7th grade mind.  Been listening to everything from Van Halen, Hendrix, ACDC, up to this point.

I've seen those.

ELO was heir apparent to The Beatles. Sadly the popular music of the era was changing, disco, new wave. They kinda got lost in the shuffle.

Never dug into ELO's stuff very deep but have always enjoyed / respected the shit out of what I have.  Maybe time.

My list (in order of preference determined by who had the most positive and long-lasting impact on popular music, IMHO):

1. MC5
2. The Cars
3. Kraftwerk
4. Pearl Jam
5. Tupac

Note: These are not my favorite bands in the list. If we do it by the "most likely to end up in the WSUB rotation" standard, it looks like:

1. Steppenwolf
2. The Cars
3. Yes
4. ELO
5. Journey

There's some overlap.

1.  ELO

2.  Cars

3.  Steppenwolf

4.  Journey

5.  Yes

My list:




Steppenwolf

Yes

Journey







Steppenwolf and MC5 are the 2 most deserving.
