Dick Dale
Kraftwerk
Son House
Kate Bush
MC5
Pixies
Joy Division
Chic
Roxy Music
Nick Drake

Again, I'll stick up for the early KISS albums, and even a couple later ones, as good straight-ahead rock.

But I will agree with you on something else. The "Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame" is in my opinion a completely irrelevant, immaterial, utter, complete joke. I will never ever set foot in the place. I'd even go to a Walmart before I went to the RHOF.
