Additions To The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — 2023

Some time ago several of us in the office came across a listicle linked on Metafilter, seemingly designed to infuriate large swaths of the population and drive lots of traffic to its parent publication — I’m talking of course about this

which led me to write a great series of posts taking the list to task for its wrong choices (which is one of the things these lists are supposed to do) and the whole generally wrong headed idea that one can with any certainty rank a large number of disparate musicians sequentially based on such factors as quality and influence.

This list of articles are linked at the end of this one in case you need a rabbit hole to get out of whatever you’re supposed to be doing today.

But I’m going to quote from the first and the last article in this series to explain why I’m writing this follow-up now:

This is another way that this article is not like the normal listicle — the first version of it was written in 2018 and evidently it gets updated periodically (if not every time there are new inductees).

This goes against the normal understanding of listicles as disposable bits of sass meant to aargghry up the punters and drive your hit-counter. Of course for a list of Hall of Fame inductees it makes sense to have an updated list with each inductee, so you can put them in the rankings, get readers to come back and read all over again and get even angrier. From a monetization point of view it is quite clever.

and

Wyman was able to persevere and rank all the groups and write an interesting article on how the Hall of Fame is a big flaming turd and Jann Wenner its twin given human form, despite the obvious damage it did to his sanity, but of course he had access to all the money, sex, and drugs being a big time Vulture rock critic gives you in achieving this Sisyphean task.

from

But of course, new inductions to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame must happen, and thus the rankings can never stay static, this was the primary realization of Wyman for the initial article.

In that article he also discussed bands that were not in the Hall of Fame that should be

I’d like to take a break here and note this. As I look over the list to come, I think here is the point where we’re getting into the realm of acts that, while not entirely being undeserving of being in the hall for whatever reason, are markedly inferior to any number of others that haven’t yet been inducted. Here’s my current list, in rough order, of the acts that should be in the hall but aren’t, all based on those sliding matrices of influence, importance, and quality.

Joy Division/New Order Afrika Bambaataa Lonnie Donegan Eric B & Rakim Ian Hunter/Mott the Hoople Barry White The Carpenters Outkast KC & the Sunshine Band War Diana Ross Nas Warren Zevon Mary J. Blige Jonathan Richman Willie Nelson George Michael The Shangri-Las The New York Dolls

And a discussion he had with “Jim Bessman, a longtime writer for Billboard and Variety, former member of the nominating committee, and then a voting committee member.”

I asked him whom he had voted for that year, which was 2019. “None of the ones I’d voted for got in,” he said. “I voted for five. There’s the Zombies, Link Wray, and MC5 — and those to me are indisputable. The next two are disputable, I voted for Kate Bush, whom I love and I think is extremely important, and Judas Priest. That to me is as rock and roll as you get.” Bessman also told me he spent his years on the nominating committee arguing, fruitlessly, for Lesley Gore.

After which Wyman states his opinion

Gore is arguable, but all I saw in his list are five footnotes to the history of rock and roll, not hall of fame inductees. I thought Bessman was out of his mind. It reminded me that every critic of the hall has his or her own slate of artists, and that Bessman probably would think my list of oversights is a mess as well. Both Peresman and Wenner said this over and over again: “It’s a matter of taste,” Wenner said at one point. In time I felt they had a point. They were speaking after experiencing years, even decades, of an endless stream of people keening at them about the perceived oversights of the hall.

Obviously Wyman taking KC & the Sunshine Band over Link Wray or Kate Bush proves he is OUT OF HIS MIND (capitalized, bolded, and italized!) which renders his psychological evaluation of Bessman null and void.

So all that said — here are the new inductees! Those Wyman wanted are bolded, the ones Bessman wanted are italicized.

Performer Category

Ahmet Ertegun Award

Don Cornelius

So, two for two. Pretty good.

So the thing is with this whole idea, as new inductees come along your past rankings might have to be changed, so here again are all our previous rankings, with any changes that need to be made (please note we are only ranking performers)

1. Chuck Berry — The Beatles
2. James Brown — Bob Dylan
3. Prince
4. Elvis Presley — Little Richard — Buddy Holly
5. The Rolling Stones — Nirvana — Led Zeppelin
6. Muddy Waters — Otis Redding
7. Ramones — The Clash — The Sex Pistols — Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five — Run-DMC — Public Enemy
8. Aretha Franklin
9. Joni Mitchell — Marvin Gaye — David Bowie — Stevie Wonder : This is about where one can start arguing about Willie Nelson — I’m not saying I would put him here but I can understand the argument — however one thing one needs to keep in mind is that Willie is still Country and this is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — Willie is an influence but tertiary.

This goes back to what Wyman said about everyone having their own list, which of course, but if we refer to

We are reminded of the rules regarding quality — To be able to speak meaningfully about any art you must be able to order that art into at least four categories:

1. Art that is good and to your taste
2. Art that is bad and to your taste
3. Art that is good and not to your taste
4. Art that is bad and not to your taste.

And the rules regarding influence and criticism — A critic must also be able to differentiate between works that are:

1. important in relation to their creator
2. Unimportant in relation to their creator
3. Important in relation to other works
4. Unimportant in relation to other works

All these factors in discussion can vary somewhat between people and there can be reasonable disagreements, and thus someone can think someone is an inarguable addition to the hall and another consider them a footnote while still relatively in alignment regarding quality as I suppose Wyman and Bessman probably were about their choices. But anyway, this article is mine, and I’m too busy telling you how it truly is to worry about what these guys think.

10. The Jimi Hendrix Experience

11. Sly and the Family Stone — Parliament-Funkadelic

12. Bo Diddley — Jerry Lee Lewis

13. Bob Marley

14. The Who — The Kinks — The Beach Boys — Johnny Cash — The Band — Ray Charles — The Velvet Underground — Smokey Robinson — Roxy Music: Since I put Johnny Cash here I have to say — you cannot put Willie Nelson on the same level as Johnny Cash. I think Willie would probably agree, although he would probably also point Johnny should be up a few more points and Willie should be at #14.

15. Neil Young — Van Morrison — Paul Simon — Bruce Springsteen — The Supremes — The Temptations — Elvis Costello — Al Green — Willie Nelson

I could put him lower but I think reasonably he seems at the right level songwriting wise with Simon, Morrison, Young and Springsteen. Despite his confirmed Country-ness, I just refuse to put him lower, although again reasonable argumentation I think could drop him all the way to 20.

16. Pink Floyd — The Stooges — The Yardbirds — Fats Domino — The Shirelles — The Grateful Dead — Creedence Clearwater Revival — Black Sabbath

17. Martha and the Vandellas — Paul McCartney — John Lennon — George Harrison

Number 17 above was sort of funny, which is the kind of thing that happens when you have to rank so many different artists and Vulture magazine has neglected to send me any drugs or money. As such I think there are a lot of people that could be at number 17 with them, but I am, for pedagogical and argumentative reasons, going to push all those down to

18. U2 — Kate Bush — Michael Jackson — R.E.M — Radiohead

I’m not going to go too much into each performer here as I don’t have much energy, but there is an interesting thing to them. They are the GOATs of a new generation — Most of the GOATS we discussed earlier were 60s-70s generation — a few were 50s generation. Sure some of their contemporaries made it up higher but those were GOATS that the earlier generation could also potentially accept (probably not all of them) but in the case of these performers here I think their contemporary fan base would think they were the greatest of all time and there may very well be older fans but it is unlikely that the older fans would think that these were the GOATS. Obviously this greatest idea generally relates to what was popular in ones youth, but for the people who can transcend that these bands do not seem like they would be the ‘greatest’ only really good.

(Removed for its own article, some observations regarding Kurt Cobain at this point)

Amusingly Kate Bush, the new inductee that Wyman considers a footnote might be the exception to this GOAT observation. Her reputation as a great artist in the UK can probably have some members of older generations seeing her as the GOAT. Although, somehow a GOAT seems antithetical to her whole persona.

Here I have to admit it is hard for me to really evaluate Bush, because I never liked her. I never disliked her either, she just rubbed me slightly the wrong way. Running up the Hill, which of course had a moment this past year used to just almost annoy me but not to the point where it stopped me understanding the quality — this really was something I thought was good that I just didn’t like much.

19. Elton John — Sam Cooke — Patti Smith — ABBA — The Talking Heads — George Michael — The Everly Brothers — Roy Orbison — Ike & Tina Turner

These were probably bands that people thought were not the GOAT — but the second greatest of all time. Artists about whom people that were aware of the rules of speaking meaningfully about art could say — I know they are not as good as “X” But I like them better! The Everly Brothers and Roy Orbison are here because realistically they can’t be lower. And hey they should maybe be higher. After all Fats Domino is at 16.

My placement of ABBA here is one of the big, obvious disagreements with Wyman, in the original article he says

This might be the first wholly cynical inductee. Pop of course has a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but not pop cartoons. And if you are going to have cartoons, why not the Monkees? Josie and the Pussycats? Mӧtley Crüe? The real motivation here was giving the hall something to market to the Mamma Mia! set. In the event, only two members showed up to the ceremony. ABBA’s a punch line, and a remunerative one, but not a band that left much of a mark on history.

My take: ABBA was arguably one of the most influential bands of the 70s. Also I remember reading an article one time in which Joe Strummer said “Everyone loves ABBA” non-ironically. They needed to be moved up into the top 100 in Wyman’s list, hence their placement here. As far as a mark on history, I mean much of European pop and Eurovision are strands of modern music that basically kneel daily at the altar of ABBA. As well as large parts of the gay pop domain probably look back to ABBA the way others might look back to the Beatles or The Stones. If Strummer loved ABBA how could he not have brought parts of them into his mix. ABBA is someone that musicians will always go to, and Rock critics always use as a punchline (unless they are wise as I)

I was thinking to put George Michael a bit lower but I think he is arguable here and I like to put him at the same rank as Elton John, which hey George Michael wrote his own lyrics.

I also think most people who would have been predisposed to think George the GOAT would have instead chosen Michael Jackson, Prince, or similar others.

That said I do remember one guy that probably thought that George Michael was the GOAT, and one time he was over at my house (or I should say my room-mate’s house where stayed rent free because I was cheating to put him through school) and sitting close to the television watching intently as George Michael came on. It was sort of eerie because they were dressed the same, and you could see that the guy had styled his hair like George’s and they were equally tanned. George was doing a live version of Careless Whisper, and his admirer, close to tears at the emotional heights of the performance, said to the TV “That guy’s not gay”

This was before the more salacious incidents that confirmed George Michael was indeed gay, my further thoughts on this matter shall remain veiled

20. The Drifters — The Coasters — The Spinners — Eddie Cochran — Jackie Wilson — Ricky Nelson — Carl Perkins

Again, a sort of pedagogic ranking, you’ll note that there is nobody who isn’t an early influence. Here I am putting all the early second level rankers who might have influenced those who came after, but obviously not as greatly as the primary influences.

In the original notes on the Vulture article Agent 9 of the DJs of Evil wrote the following:

A lot of the early rockers should be moved a lot lower, because i don’t think they actually really influenced anyone all that much. For example Bobby Darin, Del Shannon etc. should with Gene Vincent be placed a lot lower on the list. I think the main influences on the generation that came after were Little Richard, Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, and the Everly Brothers. All the rest, including Ricky Nelson, Carl Perkins, and maybe even Eddie Cochran were not that influential in themselves, the next generation were taught from the main influencers, and the second rank just sort of underlined some of the lessons.

Of course the DJs of Evil seem to be taking a little hiatus, because either Agent 9 is insane, has had his assassin training activated and is on a secret mission, is off time traveling with everybody’s favorite douchebag Agent 99, or is just dead.

I don’t at the moment have the time to rank the other new inductees, as they would rank lower on the list and I don’t have the resources to take care of all that, as Vulture magazine has refused my requisition for drugs and harlots to be delivered for doing this important work.

That said there are a few more notes of Agent 9 that we should probably put out there, especially as I am unsure if he is ever coming back to work or not.

In order to do that let us remind ourselves what Wyman’s original rankings were — here is the list without anything else, I have bolded things that seem very weird:

Some Notes from Agent 9

I don’t think I can really go through the whole list and correct missteps, as there are a lot of them, so a quick note of rankings I believe are wrong and where they should go

Duran Duran , NWA — both groups I feel “ I never actually liked them too much, but it does feel like they are put too low here, move up maybe 20 spots”

Red Hot Chili Peppers — a move downward seems warranted.

Deep Purple — based on the influence and important songs argument this band needs to be moved after Stevie Nicks. And I used to love when Smoke on the Water came on during my aforementioned school-sluffing days.

Nina Simone — I believe Ms. Simone has a higher cachet in the African-American community than she does in the white, and should probably be moved up about 30–40 spots.

aw man I can’t keep this up, I am starting to feel sorry for Wyman, probably he got worn out the same way, how else to explain silly stuff like this from the Notorious B.I.G entry (ranked #153):

of course, gangsta rap is a valid form and, of course, Smalls is a master, but he’s still a guy who wrote songs about getting blow jobs from “bitches.”

I mean we have a bunch of bands in the top 100 who are quite crude about womanizing and rendering service to their schlongs.

There’s no particular conclusion, for some reaon there are always more things to be said about the whole ranking of the inductess of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame concept — I doubt this is the last one.
