2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

Candy Slice and the Slicers

Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
Her inability to find the right movie role and her premature death rendered Gilda Radner one of the most underrated talents of her day. On Saturday Night Live, Radner gave us a Patti Smith parody, where she played Candy Slice. It was as brilliant as anything else she had ever done, and she took the character to her own live comedy album in 1979. Much like Smith herself, this is almost a cult character among early SNL fans.
TV Show/Movie Appeared: Saturday Night Live (1978-79)
Actors: Gilda Radner
Songs you may remember: If You Look Close
Gimme Mick
Why you should vote:: Gilda deserves a bit of love here; it was a great parody.
Why you should not vote:: So much of what Radner has done has been sadly forgotten; and this is probably not among her top five characters.
