As a long time fan of music, I see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a way of recognizing an artists' excellence in the field of musical sound. I also noticed that several performers have yet to be inducted into this prestigious honor. Among my many choices would be - Pat Benatar, Stray Cats, Journey, Chicago, The Fifth Dimension, Badfinger, The Knack, Neil Diamond, Cheech And Chong, Barry Manilow, REO Speedwagon, The Fleetwoods, Chubby Checker, Blondie, Dave Clark Five, and Ringo Starr. However- my definitive choice would be The Monkees. I mean; let's face it. Any group of guys that would want to make their own music gets my vote. Name another group with their very own Emmy Award-winning television sitcom, that also has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and also records more than 200 songs within a five year time period (including the Number One song of the year 1966), as well as appears in a feature film that has since gone on to become a cult classic. The Monkees rule!
