The discussion we had about the remarkable reluctance of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to include the likes of Black Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Sex Pistols and Blondie took place about a week and a half ago. Those four bands finally made the cut this year, and will be inducted in March of 2006. I'm sure those responsible had been listening to the Seano and Jefe Show....er, even though the show posted yesterday. Anyway, its the thought that counts.
I'd love to see if Ozzy and John Lydon do indeed show up to the ceremony,though. The two of them could care less as expressed in interviews in recent years on the subject. Its also worth noting that Black Sabbath was inducted into the British Rock and Roll Hall of Fame about two weeks ago and the entire band showed up and performed. Ozzy threw the crowd a good moon as well. His recent facelift made Geezer really look like Geezer.
Miles Davis was inducted this year ??? Although a jazz genius with a groundbreaking fusion period in his repertoire(Bitches Brew, Miles in the Sky)....He never really brought the rock. let the purists argue that one out. Meanwhile Iggy Pop and The Cars are still out in the cold.
I don't really have anything to say about Blondie.
