When this website was first thought up, we really didn’t pay attention to Country music and we were a little surprised to see that Hank Williams was one of the early inductees. Upon more research and reflection, Williams’ induction made more sense to us. We wonder how many people think that Patsy Cline should be inducted along side him.

The decade of the 80’s has left behind many things that are iconic and can not be imagined in any other time period. Although the best known hit of Simple Minds is synonymous with the John Hughes 1985 classic, the Breakfast Club, does that song really scream 80’s and if so is it mostly because of the film?

It is virtually impossible to claim that the Woodstock concert was not the most important concert in the history of Rock and Roll. Many of those iconic artists have found their way into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, yet despite the acclaimed (yet somewhat forgotten) set that Ten Years After put on, they seem far away from the Hall and are often not associated with the concert itself.

Is there a generation that doesn’t look at some sort of reverence to the ones before? Music is no different, as there is a constant form of retro cool that keeps reoccurring in various forms. We have wondered if nobody understood this better than the Stray Cats, the band who ushered in the Rockabilly revival in the early 1980’s.
