With a blend of American style influences, Creedence Clearwater Revival were a hit making band that churned out multiple singles over a five year span.  The songs that they made famous remain in classic radio airplay today and their songs have truly withstood the test of time.

As a solo star, Curtis Mayfield was one of the first stars of Funk and one if the first social conscious of African American Music.  He is definitely worth to be one of the few artists to be inducted twice.

Point blank, there was no other group that mastered vocal harmonies in Rock better than the superstar trio of David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash.  They were as politically charged as they were talented and though many artists have been called the voice of their generation, this was not an exaggeration with this group.

Carl Perkins was the King of Rockabilly, and though he is known primarily for “Blue Suede Shoes” his songs and songwriting extend to more than that monstrous hit.  Perkins earned his slot as one of the first entries to the Hall.

Inducted in 1987.  From Tiptonville, Tennessee, U.S.A.
