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

From one of the ultimate cult films, “The World’s Greatest Sinner” we have a young man named Clarence Gilliard who realizes that Rock and Roll is power. He becomes a superstar and uses his new found fame to become a political icon and religious cult leader. It should be mentioned that this was the first film scored by Frank Zappa. This is one of those times when they say that a movie is ahead of its time; it is not an exaggeration.
