Overall, the Selections were good, Chicago, Cheap Trick, Steve Miller... All deserve to be inducted. Nevertheless, Yes deserves to be inducted more than any of those bands! It really isn't right...

Everyone needs to understand that as long as Jann Wenner is alive and involved with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Yes *will not* get into his little cool kids' club in Cleveland.

In spite of massive fan voting in Yes' favor, they've been fucked again. RnR HOF is a joke!

fan votes count as one vote out of 800 total ... so not much really...

After 20 and more years of this issue coming up on my radar ... year in and year out ... I am anticipating an influx of rats' asses any day now.

I wouldn't say Yes deserves it more than Chicago.

I also think there were plenty of acts who should have gotten in before
Steve Miller. Even if you limit the field to '70s-FM names. Start with
Jethro Tull.

And I like Cheap Trick, but I wasn't really expecting them to get the
nod over Nine Inch Nails, Yes, etc.

LOL... Chicago doesn't deserve to be there. They made lousy soft rock music from Day 1. Yes even Chicago Transit Authority has boring smooth jazz rock.

Yes deserves it more than any of the ones inducted. Glad that Deep Purple finally got in.

All this time...you even got married...and you still sound like a naive
12-year-old.

And I have a 2 year old daughter too. I have been expanding my horzons quite a lot recently but still do not like smooth, soft or watered down music like Chicago, Steely Dan, Foreigner, Journey, Bad Company, Eagles etc.

Have you heard early Chicago? They were fairly progressive on the early albums, not like the Chicago of the 80's... And Steely Dan? One of the best bands of all time, Imo...

The place is a cult. They don't hypnotize me. I know none of those bands can top *Awaken*. There's too much passion in YES for that club.

They don't allow bands that may be considered holy. Come Together Over Me...isn't part of their program. This cult mocks the real heavy heads.
