Alice is a bonafide musical genius who inspired hundreds of rock bands (some of whom are in the Hall of Fame even though they aren't nearly as good as him). He's recorded at least 12 A+ quality albums and his other 15 albums are at least B+ or higher (not including Easy, Dada, Zipper, Flush, and Raise Yer Fist). On his 12 best, every single song on each album is great...no filler (the Rolling Stones will put 3 good songs and 10 boring songs on their albums and they made the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame long ago). He was the biggest rock star in the world for 3 years. Sinatra performed his songs. John Lennon loved his work. Somehow I can't see Ol' Blue Eyes recording No Sleep till Brooklyn. Yes, the four Beastie Boys (that's right there are FOUR of them, not 3) do put out interesting instrumentals too, but they are being nominated for their rap music which is juvenile, childish, and geared for their moronic audience. Madonna, Chic, and Donna Summer are NOT rock n roll acts.
