The inductees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for 2008 were announced today:
Leonard Cohen
The Dave Clark Five
Madonna
John Mellencamp
The Ventures
From the website: "The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honors the legendary performers, producers, songwriters, disc jockeys and others who have made rock and roll the force that it is in our culture."
Madonna? Really?
Of all the inductees, John Mellencamp offers the most rock & roll for my money. Anyone who used to use Cougar as their middle name is pretty rock & roll if you ask me. But I just don't know about the rest of them.
So I'm tipping my proverbial hat to Mellencamp. Let's let him rock us.
