Eno is a huge snub. He invented a genre, helped forge another genre in Roxy, produced landmark records from Bowie, Talking Heads, U2, Devo, Laurie Anderson. Made one of the early sampling records with David Byrne that is hugely influential, and even if you don’t like his run of four rock records in the seventies the influence from those four records is everywhere.

To me the most egregious and longest overdue omissions would be : 1.) King Crimson- try picturing music, not just prog, developing the way it did without Crimson. Good God, at least give Fripp the nod for all of his side/production work (Bowie, Eno, Gabriel, Daryl Hall, Talking Fucking Heads and so on). The Hall of Fame says their biggest criteria is influence but if that’s the case King Crimson would have been in nearly 3 decades ago. 2.) Iron Maiden- More than a handful of legitimately awesome, influential, and classic albums as well as one of the most consistently successful and excellent live bands in the world. Their concerts are spectacles, but what sets Maiden apart is they have the music to back it up. Maiden’s omission goes beyond a disregard of heavy metal, it’s a brutally blissful showing of ignorance on the Hall’s end.. Iron Maiden is a culture defining band all around the globe. 3.) John Coltrane- If this really is becoming the “Popular Music Hall of Fame” how has Coltrane been ignored this long? Then you add the inclusion of Miles Davis. Adding Coltrane to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame doesn’t break the doors down for all of the great jazz artists so much as it tells the most accurate tale and the truth. Miles and Coltrane are, to this day, SUPREMELY INFLUENTIAL TO ROCK MUSIC. Giant Steps alone. 4.) Motörhead- Another example of a culture defining band. I don’t think their catalog is completely on par with Iron Maiden, for example, but they do have a bunch of classic material and were one of the true progenitors of so much heavy music for decades to come. James Hetfield included them in his Hall of Fame speech on a list of bands he considers major snubs, a handful have gotten in (Rush, Alice Cooper, Deep Purple) a couple of them have zero shot (Ted Nugent) but Motörhead and Thin Lizzy are both indescribable influences on heavy music. 5.) Tough choice between The Smiths, Pixies, and Tribe. They kind of all deserve it equally.

As a Brit I completely disagree with much of this. I guess if you accept that it’s an American hall of fame then fair enough I suppose. but… The Jam, and Joy Division were huge influences on the whole post punk scene and the forerunners of The Smiths (which I find strange you have in S tier given most the other bands I will mention seem equally ‘influential’, or ‘significant’ and you have them in d or f). The Specials were one of the few racially diverse bands to become big and popularise a whole new type of music (ska). They also had probably the best single of the 80s ‘Ghost Town’. We actually studied the cultural significance of this track at school that’s how big it was. I guess it’s a UK thing? The Stone Roses were the catalyst for the Madchester/Acid House scene of early nineties that then spawned the whole of Brit Rock/Pop through the rest of the 90s, Here Oasis and Blur were huge. This whole scene dominated the charts for near a decade in the UK, in a way that transcended music culturally. This whole movement was much much bigger than grunge (for example), only Nirvarna really cracked the UK to the extent of non music lovers being aware, the likes of Pixies, Soundgarden, Alice in chains, Pear Jam etc etc. were very much more underground.

If Siouxsie gets in , Robert Smith gets another induction. As Joy Division , Love Will Tear Us Apart is one of the more influential songs ever & as New Order Blue Monday is the best selling 12" single of all time. Be great if B-52's & Devo went in simultaneously & Devo be a fun night of performances & Devo are local. Chic would be by wildcard pick ..Great R&B band .

Another good criterion for comparison is... who is currently in vs. who is not. Based on THAT... if the freaking Go-Gos (WTF?) and Joan Jett are in (based on Rock Hall "checklists") ... then the Banshees should be closer to A tier. Other than that... Joy Division is FAR too influential to be that far down and the Pixies are not S tier. Also... hits shouldn't really matter because sometimes it takes decades for the world to catch up... if hits mattered then Huey Lewis, Capt and Tenille and Smashmouth would be almost B tier 😂. Did the artist move the art form forward and is their influence felt decades later? That is a good criteria... I feel. Great channel, guys.

I have the same stock line I use for discussions involving both the R&RHOF and the Oscars: "Whenever I feel like complaining about the [R&RHOF/Oscars] ... I just look at the Grammys." As simply a list of artists, I mean, I want to do the cool thing and say the R&RHOF "sucks," but honestly, the list of R&RHOF inductees strikes me as ... a pretty good one! In other words, I'd recommend it as a starting point to someone younger than me who wanted to explore late 20th century popular culture, as I would a list of Oscar Best Picture nominees. The list of Grammy Album of the Year nominees (not winners, mind you, but nominees) strikes me as the most haphazard, incomplete list ever conceived, and I wouldn't recommend it as a starting point to anyone other than maybe Clive Davis's nephew. I think people like to complain more about the R&RHOF because it feels like the people behind it might actually be listening to you, whereas it's hard to complain about the Grammys because the nominees are so inscrutably random. Anyway, after enjoying Joe Kwaczala's guest appearance on your Smiths discography way back, I ended up binge-listening to his podcast and, well, his idea of "biggest snubs" seems to be quite different (and a bit more ... uh ... informed?) than your guys', but no matter. Apparently it's all about the thought process of the members of the nominating committee and the larger pool of voters (these are actually two separate things, I learned). I suspect Joe would call Mariah Carey, Cher, Barry White, War, Bad Company, Devo, and Joy Division/New Order much worse snubs than STP, Jethro Tull, Weezer, XTC, or Sparks, but what does he know? Personally, I say "Justice for Supertramp."

When you have some of their contemporaries like Depeche Mode and especially The Cure, who arguably were not as *famous* as INXS in terms of massive hits, they definitely should and likely will go in.

Jane’s Addiction was a huge shift in music. I remember first hearing “Pigs in Zen”… it gave me the same feeling Ride the Lightning and Killers did when I first discovered Metallica and Maiden. There was a real intensity and raw energy to the music. Jane’s Addiction was like a big FU to MTVs constant rotation of hair band “metal”. They should, and I think will, get in at some point. Husker Du isn’t a favorite of mine, but they were the original garage band/alt rock band coming out of the punk years. They probably won’t ever get in, but they should. Joy Division should also get in... but, I think their chances are 50/50. Their two albums are iconic in post-punk. And, they became New Order. Not many examples of that type of transition in music.

I like watching these tier episodes, but it seemed like you were having a difficult time of sticking to any criteria: you judged by if someone “should” be in the Hall, but alternated between that and “if they would” be in the Hall, with sprinklings of “too British” (which is not a criteria for rock and roll quality) - a lot of haziness there. But - with you - I think the Hall of Fame is basically a trash fire anyway. And Procol Harum was fantastic and - since you discussed influence as one of the deciding qualities - they are widely acknowledged as being one of the main origins of prog rock which - I know - the Hall is stupidly leery of, but then there’s that wavering between “should” and “if they would.” Still… entertaining to watch.

One of the huge problems with the R&RHOF is that it’s so incredibly U.S. centric. If any otherwise incredibly successful act doesn’t gain ‘success’ stateside, they’re overlooked. Manic Street Preachers should absolutely be in, for instance. Status Quo should be in.

I get your point, but the US does kind of set the bar for musical success. There’s a reason young bands come here and try to break through. Putting the Manics in would be like putting the DC United in your football HoF.

US should not rule but on the other hand, imo, world music sucks. Mexican (only Los Lobos, Richie Valens (Oh Donna), 96 Tears), Japan, Chinese (some of my best friends are from Hong Kong), Iceland (Bjork is the worst), most of African countries (some of my best friends though) though Divido is good because he's been influenced by the great USA. Germany - Music is so Cold which is their way of keeping the 1940s alive - sick, right? Russian is not all bad.

‘Set the bar’? The U.S.A. may have given the world Elvis, Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly, but the U.K. - more specifically, England - gave the globe The Beatles; Stones; Zeppelin; Pink Floyd; Elton John and Queen. Come on! Beach Boys aside, what 60’s groups, stateside, set the U.K. alight? Velvet Underground? They’re terrific, but about 50 people bought the their debut upon release!

They mean absolutely nothing outside North America, though. I think they spent one week in the very lower reaches of the UK singles chart, and that was it for their entire discography. I know the HoF is situated in the US but isn't it supposed to represent the whole world of rock n roll, not just bands who were reasonably popular (or influential or whatever) in just one territory?

The rock n roll hall of fame is a US institution. I think a lot of non US groups will always struggle to get in because their influence in the USA is not as great as they are to other countries. As a New Zealander we have traditionally been influenced as much if not more by the UK artists rather than the US ones, certainly in rock music. So you look at Jethro Tull, Souxie and Joy division and you say "Yeah dead set should be in." Other countries would have their own diverse takes. You guys have a different filter and we have to accept that. It depends on whether the Hall of Fame sees itself as the world authority on all things Rock n Roll (nb : the US take on the "world series" ) or really is it just for the USA. I tend to think the latter but how would I know? I'm a New Zealander.

For the longest time, the one major factor for getting into to the RNRHOF has essentially been the approval of Rolling Stone magazine and hall founder Jann Wenner. If you kissed his ass, you got in. Then he got kicked off the board. For those people whining about non "rock" artists getting into the hall, I urge you to go back and look at the inductions since Year One. Tons of R&B acts and pop acts. I also urge people to become familiar with who has been inducted in any category. So many times people complain about so-and-so not getting in when they were inducted years ago.

Oasis only has 1 great album (first one) so that isn't enough. To be honest though I think a bands cred goes up somewhat not being in because it doesn't seem to be based on the quality of the music.

While I disagree with your Bad Company take you did make a good point. Even though Bad Company obviously had a bunch of success in the 70s the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame tends to knock these 70s AOR bands that didn't carry that success into the 80s. Boston, Styx, and REO Speedwagon just to name a few other. On the flipside bands that did transition into the 80s well like Journey, Chicago, Yes and Foreigner (possibly) get the nod.

Love Buzzcocks. Jason said he was a fan of "Everybody's Happy Nowadays" during the Rolling Stones top 500 songs video. Their best songs are as melodic and poppy as hell. But, commercially I don't think Buzzcocks would have chance because the Hall of Fame is largely about money and glamour. The TLM guys put artists they enjoy, like Gram Parsons and Procol Harum, in D because they don't think they have a chance, though I feel like Gram may get in one day.

I suspect they were even less successful with the other 500 million+ people in Europe, not to mention other places where people buy records.

I’m surprised that Boston wasn’t among the artists you guys talked about today. Granted, their last three albums are pretty lame, and “Don’t Look Back” and “Third Stage” pale in comparison to the debut. But, that debut is (probably) good enough on its own for Tom Scholz & Co. to get in the HoF. There are a lot of bands/artists in the Hall who are there on the strength of just one great album, and it’s hard to argue with how brilliant Boston’s debut is.

First true alternative band to make the crossover into the mainstream. Several top 20 albums and Nothing's Schockind and Ritual always appear on the "best records lists" always. Not to mention creating Lollapalooza,a festival that invented the modern music festival as we see it today. So basically we have a band that is loved by critics, who is comecially succesfull and who were influential, not only musical, but in the music business also. What is to think?
