One of the early guitar gods, Duane Eddy was the master of the “twang” and one of the most influential axe men both in the studio and out.  Many a Rock and Roll Heavyweight claimed Eddy was a huge influence on their careers.

One of the original divas in music, Dusty Springfield had a timeless voice that could seemingly (and was) applied to varying genres.  A listen to Dusty in Memphis shows the London icon off at her best.

The Doors were the dark poets of a turbulent era. With a trippy Blues and Jazz infused Psychedelic Rock, they sounded like no other band around them, and are as big today as they were at their height in the late 60’s.  They have to be considered one of the most important additions to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Controversially inducted a year later than they should have been due to a desire to put in a Rap act (The Dave Clark Five actually had more votes than Grandmaster Flash, but the latter was somehow put in anyway), the Dave Clark Five was a hit making machine during the British Invasion era.  Though they had a large amount of hits, it didn’t have the staying power of the Beatles or the Rolling Stones but it was substantial enough to earn their slot in the Hall.
