Capt. Beefheart - Yes. A wonderful avant garde musician.
Nick Cave - No. I thought he was alright, but his music never awed me. Not hall of fame quality for me.
Nirvana - Yes. Probably largely responsible for a lot of the music I like, and I loved them for a while. Maybe not the most complicated music but it was good.
Blur No. They aren't a bad band, but I don't like britpop or whatever that much, and I don't think they are near good enough to be a hall of fame band.
Neil Young - Abstain. I've never been a huge fan, but I'm not sure how I can like music and vote against Neil Young getting into a hall of fame.
My Bloody Valentine - Yes. My favorite artist from this list. Loveless is, of course, a shoegaze classic; I love music with layers of distorted guitar sound and they are one of the best.
John Zorn Never heard much by him.
