Maybe It Isn't Such A Great Honor After All

The Sex Pistols were elected to the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame today. They should've been. They were highly influential, innovative and everything that a member of the Rock 'N Roll Hall of Fame should be. Granted, if longevity had anything to do with it, then they wouldn't have been elected...but that one album is easily one of the top 10 greatest rock albums ever made. And they should've gone in AFTER the Ramones. That much is fitting.

What seems odd is the fact that on the same ballot, Blondie, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Miles Davis and Black Sabbath. Sabbath is an "iffy" choice but I get it. Miles Davis plays, ahem, jazz--but sure, he's a musical genius. Lynyrd Skynyrd...okay.

But Blondie?
