The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This is a list of inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, established in 1986 and located in Cleveland, Ohio, United States, is dedicated to recording the history of some of the best-known and most influential musicians, bands, producers, and others that have in some major way influenced the music industry, particularly in the area of rock and roll.[1] Originally, there were four categories of induction: performers, non-performers, early influences, and lifetime achievement. In 2000, "sidemen" was introduced as a category while that year also marked the last time for nine years that early influences would be inducted. The only category that has seen new inductees every single year is the performers category. Artists become eligible for induction in that category 25 years after the release of their first record.[2] In order to be inducted, an artist must be nominated by a committee that selects anywhere from nine to a dozen candidates. Ballots are then sent to 500 "rock experts" who evaluate the candidates and vote on who should be inducted. The performers that receive the highest number of votes and more than 50 percent of the vote are inducted. In 2008, the number inducted was five. The rest of the categories are voted on by special committees.[2] New inductees are honored at an annual ceremony held either in New York or every three years at the Hall of Fame in Cleveland.[3] The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has garnered criticism for allegedly allowing the nomination process to be controlled by a few individuals,[4] nominating too many artists in too many genres that are not entirely rock,[5] ignoring entire rock genres,[6] and using technicalities to induct groups who may not have been among the top vote getters.[7] The Sex Pistols, who were inducted in 2006, refused to attend the ceremony, calling the museum a "piss stain."[8] [edit] Inductees [edit] Performers The performers category is meant for recording artists and bands that have "influence and significance to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll."[2] Artists become eligible for induction in that category 25 years after the release of their first record. In order to be inducted, an artist must be nominated by a committee that selects anywhere from nine to a dozen candidates. Ballots are sent to 500 "rock experts" who then evaluate the candidates and vote on who should be inducted. The performers that receive the highest number of votes and more than 50 percent of the vote are inducted. In 2008, the number inducted was five. The rest of the categories are voted on by special committees.[2] | Year | Image | Name | Inducted members | | 1986 |  | Berry, ChuckChuck Berry | | | 1986 |  | Brown, JamesJames Brown | | | 1986 |  | Charles, RayRay Charles | | | 1986 | | Cooke, SamSam Cooke | | | 1986 |  | Domino, FatsFats Domino | | | 1986 |  | Everly Brothers The Everly Brothers | Don Everly and Phil Everly.[9] | | 1986 | | Holly, BuddyBuddy Holly | | | 1986 |  | Lewis, Jerry LeeJerry Lee Lewis | | | 1986 |  | Little Richard | | | 1986 |  | Presley, ElvisElvis Presley | | | 1987 | | Coasters The Coasters | Carl Gardner, Cornell Gunter, Billy Guy and Will "Dub" Jones.[10] | | 1987 | | Cochran, EddieEddie Cochran | | | 1987 |  | Diddley, BoBo Diddley | | | 1987 |  | Franklin, ArethaAretha Franklin | | | 1987 | | Gaye, MarvinMarvin Gaye | | | 1987 | | Haley, BillBill Haley | | | 1987 |  | King, B.B.B.B.

The full process is not transparent and it is unclear who comprises this selection committee.[2] | Year | Name | | 1986 | Rodgers, JimmieJimmie Rodgers | | 1986 | Yancey, JimmyJimmy Yancey | | 1986 | Johnson, RobertRobert Johnson | | 1987 | Jordan, LouisLouis Jordan | | 1987 | Walker, T-BoneT-Bone Walker | | 1987 | Williams, HankHank Williams | | 1988 | Guthrie, WoodyWoody Guthrie | | 1988 | Lead Belly | | 1988 | Les Paul | | 1989 | Ink Spots The Ink Spots[A] | | 1989 | Smith, BessieBessie Smith | | 1989 | Soul Stirrers The Soul Stirrers[B] | | 1990 | Armstrong, LouisLouis Armstrong | | 1990 | Christian, CharlieCharlie Christian | | 1990 | Rainey, MaMa Rainey | | 1991 | Howlin' Wolf | | 1992 | James, ElmoreElmore James | | 1992 | Longhair, ProfessorProfessor Longhair | | 1993 | Washington, DinahDinah Washington | | 1994 | Dixon, WillieWillie Dixon | | 1995 | Orioles, TheThe Orioles[C] | | 1996 | Seeger, PetePete Seeger | | 1997 | Jackson, MahaliaMahalia Jackson | | 1997 | Monroe, BillBill Monroe | | 1998 | Jelly Roll Morton | | 1999 | Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys[D] | | 1999 | Brown, CharlesCharles Brown | | 2000 | Cole, Nat Nat King Cole | | 2000 | Holiday, BillieBillie Holiday | | 2009 | Jackson, WandaWanda Jackson | ^ A.

Inducted members: Bob Wills, Tommy Duncan, Johnny Gimble, Joe "Jody" Holley, Tiny Moore, Herb Remington, Eldon Shamblin and Al Stricklin.[94] [edit] Lifetime achievement The following were inducted for "Lifetime Achievement in the Non-Performer Category."[2] [edit] Non-performers (Ahmet Ertegun Award) The non-performer category honors "songwriters, producers, disc jockeys, record executives, journalists and other industry professionals who have had a major influence on the development of rock and roll."[2] Several of the inductees in this category were in fact fairly well-known as performers as well. The inductees in this category are selected by the same committee that chooses the early influences. The full process is not transparent and it is unclear who comprises this selection committee.[2] This category has been criticized for inducting those that have "been coming to the dinner for years and paying for their tickets" and not revealing their full criteria.[7] In 2008, this category was renamed the "Ahmet Ertegün Award".[95] | Year | Name | | 1986 | Freed, AlanAlan Freed | | 1986 | Phillips, SamSam Phillips | | 1987 | Chess, LeonardLeonard Chess | | 1987 | Ertegun, AhmetAhmet Ertegun | | 1987 | Leiber Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller | | 1987 | Wexler, JerryJerry Wexler | | 1988 | Gordy, Jr., BerryBerry Gordy, Jr. | | 1989 | Spector, PhilPhil Spector | | 1990 | Gerry Goffin and Carole King | | 1990 | Holland-Dozier-Holland | | 1991 | Bartholomew, DaveDave Bartholomew | | 1991 | Bass, RalphRalph Bass | | 1992 | Fender, LeoLeo Fender | | 1992 | Graham, BillBill Graham | | 1992 | Pomus, DocDoc Pomus | | 1993 | Clark, DickDick Clark | | 1993 | Gabler, MiltMilt Gabler | | 1994 | Otis, JohnnyJohnny Otis | | 1995 | Ackerman, PaulPaul Ackerman | | 1996 | Donahue, TomTom Donahue | | 1997 | Nathan, SydSyd Nathan | | 1998 | Toussaint, AllenAllen Toussaint | | 1999 | Martin, GeorgeGeorge Martin | | 2000 | Davis, CliveClive Davis | | 2001 | Blackwell, ChrisChris Blackwell | | 2002 | Stewart, JimJim Stewart | | 2003 | Ostin, MoMo Ostin | | 2008 | Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff | | 2010 | Geffen, DavidDavid Geffen | | 2010 | Blackwell, OtisOtis Blackwell | | 2010 | Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich | | 2010 | Shuman, MortMort Shuman | | 2010 | Stone, JesseJesse Stone | | 2010 | Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil | [edit] Sidemen First established in 2000, the sidemen category "honors those musicians who have spent their careers out of the spotlight, performing as backup musicians for major artists on recording sessions and in concert." A separate committee, composed mainly of producers, chooses the inductees.

Eric Clapton is the only one to be inducted three times, as a solo artist and with The Yardbirds and Cream.[111] Clyde McPhatter was the first to ever be inducted twice and is one of three artists to be inducted first as a solo artist, then as a member of a band (Neil Young is the only other). Stephen Stills is the only artist to be inducted twice in the same year. | Name | First | Year | Second | Year | Third | Year | | Clapton, EricEric Clapton | Yardbirds The Yardbirds | 1992 | Cream | 1993 | Solo career | 2000 | | Beck, JeffJeff Beck | Yardbirds The Yardbirds | 1992 | zzzzz Solo career | 2009 | | Carter, JohnnyJohnny Carter | Flamingos The Flamingos | 2001 | Dells The Dells | 2004 | | Crosby, DavidDavid Crosby | Byrds The Byrds | 1991 | Crosby, Stills & Nash | 1997 | | Harrison, GeorgeGeorge Harrison | Beatles The Beatles | 1988 | zzzzz Solo career | 2004 | | Jackson, MichaelMichael Jackson | Jackson Five The Jackson Five | 1997 | zzzzz Solo career | 2001 | | Lennon, JohnJohn Lennon | Beatles The Beatles | 1988 | zzzzz Solo career | 1994 | | Mayfield, CurtisCurtis Mayfield | Impressions The Impressions | 1991 | zzzzz Solo career | 1999 | | McCartney, PaulPaul McCartney | Beatles The Beatles | 1988 | zzzzz Solo career | 1999 | | McPhatter, ClydeClyde McPhatter | zzzzz Solo career | 1987 | Drifters The Drifters | 1988 | | Nash, GrahamGraham Nash | Crosby, Stills & Nash | 1997 | Hollies The Hollies | 2010 | | Page, JimmyJimmy Page | Yardbirds The Yardbirds | 1992 | Led Zeppelin | 1995 | | Simon, PaulPaul Simon | Simon and Garfunkel | 1990 | zzzzz Solo career | 2001 | | Stills, StephenStephen Stills | Buffalo Springfield | 1997 | Crosby, Stills & Nash | 1997 | | Strain, Sammy Sammy Strain | The O'Jays | 2005 | Little Anthony & The Imperials | 2009 | | Young, NeilNeil Young | zzzzz Solo career | 1995 | Buffalo Springfield | 1997 | [edit] References - ^ "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees".
