The 2024 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame list is out, and it features more home-based musical artists who deserve the status, unlike the previous year, which was full of foreigners.
However, the history of Rock & Roll is characterized by a lot of omissions. On the other hand, voters shouldn’t expect a full list of artists to be inducted every year.
Having so many musicians on the list seems helpful and gives more people opportunities in the Hall, but the problem is that with time, the induction gradually loses its value.
Over the years, a few musicians have found themselves inducted who shouldn’t be.

Here is the list.
Hall of 2022: Eurythmics
Eurythmics was a great band back in the 80s, but I don’t think they should have been added to the Hall.
The group sounded considerably different from most other musical acts in the 1980s with great vocals like Annie Lennox.
Although They may not have created as much excellent music as other inductees enough for induction, for a decent record, it could pass.
Hall of 2000: Lovin Spoonful
Lovin Spoonful was a band from the 60s with five albums and other singles to their name, in an ear where singles dominated the most.
POLL-
Other artists like Bob Dylan and Rubber Soul’s Highway 61, remixed by the Beatles, also had a good feat the same year Lovin Spoonful released its first record, 1965.
In comparison, a TV opera show will probably be more entertaining than most of its songs will do to your soul.
Hall of 2018: The Cars
The bands took the U.S. in the 80s with fresh and unusual soundtracks in their early years.
Some hit tracks from their record include Terrible Magic. Two more studio albums followed the 1984 recording.
Though their early years were quite interesting, that’s not enough reason to be Inducted Into the Hall.

Hall of 2018: The Moody Blues
After their debut album in 1965, the Moody Blues were finally inducted into the Hall after five decades and 3 years (53 Years).
Although few of their tracks made some waves. What took the Rock & Roll Hall so long to recognize The Moody Blues?
The Hall organizers probably didn’t see any concrete reason for their induction. Or maybe after all these years, some executive had a discussion and came to the conclusion of a Yes in honor of legacy.
