Otis "Bad" Blake

Contest:
2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
-
As down and out as you could possibly get, Otis “Bad” Blake (Jeff Bridges) was a fallen Country Music star whose star had long since faded. A severe alcoholic, Blake was still a talent, and in “Crazy Heart” we see his rocky path to redemption. The acclaimed film saw Jeff Bridges win the Best Actor Oscar and considering the talents who collaborated on the music for the film (T-Bone Burnett for example) this could be a strong underdog for the Hall.
