Why isn't SRV in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?


With total disrespect, I look at some of the "artists" who are enshrined here and I find it hard to believe; actually I am shocked that they have never included Stevie Ray Vaughn. If he doesn't deserve enshrinement something is really wrong. What gives?

Mapman don't go dissin' Cleveland.The only city I know of that had a river(The Cuyahoga) catch on fire.As far as local Hall of Famers Pere Ubu are certainly deserving,yet way to good to actually get inducted.Do I recall correctly that Eric Clapton refused to attend his own induction citing the fact that it was contrary to all that Rock stood for? Lwin let it go.Otherwise you may end up worrying about someone who isn't on Rolling Stone's 500 best guitarists list,or why Jethro Tull got that Heavy Metal Grammy and not Guns and Roses.Rolling Stone,The Grammy's and R&R Hall of Fame are all of approximate relevance.The one thing that really matters is the music and the listener who refuses to let it die.

For the record, the Chicago River caught fire during the Great Fire of 1871.Thanks Tom I never knew that even though I am married to an O'Leary.
