If i had a vote
Of the 15 acts nominated for the RnR Hall of Fame this year (Beastie Boys, Chic, Neil Diamond, Alice Cooper, Bon Jovi, Donovan, Tom Waits, LL Cool J, Dr. John, the J. Geils Band, Darlene Love, Laura Nyro, Donna Summer, Joe Tex, and Chuck Willis) i'd say that Dr. John, Laura Nyro, and Tom Waits are no-brainers. Gotta go with Joe Tex and Darlene Love for the other two.
But where the hell is Sir Douglas Sahm on that list?

Not to dis J. Geils, who are more deserving than Kiss by a longshot, but i'd put Doug Sahm, Jonathan Richman, and T. Rex in there first.

Oh, and Grand Funk Railroad.
I'm totally boycotting the Hall till GFR gets in.
