Good Choice, Sir.

I even wonder how they make their nominations, especially with Chic & Public Enemy being two of them.

Fun and some of the ones who have been kicked out are ones I quite agree with. Madonna, like I've said, is just cruise ship fodder. Likewise Abba. Some of the hip-hop artists have been kicked out for the simple reason that hip-hop should have it's seperate hall of fame (It's big enough in its own right to warrant one, isn't it?). 

I'm not sure about Crass being inducted into the RRRHoF, as Penny Rimbaud openly said they were more influenced by the avant-garde than rock'n'roll. Then, I bet they'd be sceptical of it too.

I bet one of our nominations would be inducted by Mojo Workout for 2013 and the corporate one's are nowhere alike. Without more ado, here are the nominations for 2013:

• Chic (seventh nomination)
• Deep Purple (first nomination)
• Heart (second nomination)
• Joan Jett & the Blackhearts (second nomination)
• Albert King (first nomination)
• Kraftwerk (second nomination)
• The Marvelettes (first nomination)
• The Meters (second nomination)
• N.W.A (first nomination)
• Randy Newman (second nomination)
• The Paul Butterfield Blues Band (second nomination)
• Procol Harum (first nomination)
• Public Enemy (first nomination)
• Rush (first nomination)
• Donna Summer (fifth nomination)

  Not very likely The Sonics or Joe Meek'll be inducted this year.

Personally I agree with Arlo Guthrie when his father Woody was posthumously inducted  and he said to the crowd of well dressed millionaires; "I don't know what my father would be if he were alive today but I can tell you one thing, he wouldn't be here."

Nuff Said.

I don't hear the "soul" in Arthur Brown, but that Crazy World Of Arthur Brown LP is pretty good. More going on than just the one hit.

He is one of Britain's finest soul singers, after all. He should be in the RRHoF by right.

If I'd had 20 choices , I'd already  have considered putting Brown on my list , which is no slight on his importance , nor his enormous talent as a writer , singer and even dancer . He's VERY difficult to classify , as he's done early Space Rock , Post - Freakbeat Psych- Rock , Electronica (Not the butt - shakin' , coke snortin' variety , HA HA.), AND HIS OWN TAKE ON BLUES and R'n'B.   THE HELL OF IT IS , HE'S PROBABLY AN EVEN BETTER SINGER , NOW , THAN WHEN MY BROTHERS AND I USED TO PLAY OUR "FIRE' SINGLE IN THE DARK AND SCARE THE PISS OUT OF OURSELVES.

I considered him as a possible wild card, but my lists would be too big otherwise.

Have someone mentioned the great Arthur Brown ?? He should be in the top of the list even if he didn't play garage !

Yes , for the "Snatch and The Poontangs" LP ALONE , Johnny Otis should have his own wing in the Hall of Fame. That, and his gallant efforts to save The Party Record (Leroy and Skillet , LaWanda Page , Mantan Moreland , etc.).

Really?? Midnight Oil? Huh... I guess their album sales would put them up there. But if you say Midnight Oil... I say nah mate, Cold CHISEL... at least Barnsey could SING. And Ian Moss can play the gee-tar.

Melissa , I remember , Mick Farren was part of a big panel of celebs in Roctober (BTW , Deviants , Pink Fairies , Jesse Hector , Third World War.......) that was asked "Should Pat Boone be in The Rock 'n'Roll Hall of Fame?". He said , "Not when Roky Erickson and Syd Barrett are'nt in it. Is Gene Vincent in it , yet?". He was , by then , but , of course , buried under Kool and The Gang , James Taylor and Bread.

At least , most of the (Then- ) surviving Elevators were honored by The Texas Music Hall of Fame.....

Yes, Roky Erickson should already be in. That's a no brainer. Politics and $$$ make the H o F what it is, no? And, it's expensive. :(
