R&R Hall of Fame, class of '10: ABBA, others
« on: December 15, 2009, 08:03:21 AM »
Congratulations ABBA (also Stooges, Genesis, Hollies, Jimmy Cliff) for being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

Quote
The news was quite surprising for the Swedish pop group ABBA. "I didn't think this would happen, because we were a pop band, not a rock band," says Benny Andersson, who helped found the group in 1970. "Being a foreigner from the North Pole, this feels really good."

It's really too bad Ron Asheton didn't live to see ABBA make it.

Wow, this could be the best class since some of the early inductees.

Dear "But it's the ROCK'N'ROLL Hall of Fame, waah" babies complaining that Jimmy Cliff and ABBA made it while KISS didn't: The Harder They Come is  way better than KISS Meets the Phantom of the Park. I'm pretty sure ABBA: The Movie is too.

I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I've been through the R&RHOF and ABBA would fit in quite well.

Congrats to all of this year's inductees. However, I'm disappointed that the Monkees were passed over yet again. Their glaring omission from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a grave musical injustice that must be righted.

Although, I suspect as long as Jann Wenner is alive, it will never happen.
