Clearly the definition of “rock and roll” has either widened, deteriorated, or both.

Agreed. Been saying that for awhile. It’s a zoo for tame pets.

Dolly Parton should never be inducted into that shrine of overdosed drug addicts. She is a highly talented class act who has no business being enshrined in with those scum bags. What in the world has she ever done that was Rock and Roll? How sad!

Can’t the name be changed to take out the word ‘rock’ and replace it with just ‘music’.

Too many people have been inducted in the hall of fame that really are not what are considered rock.

I love Dolly Parton, but she really is not a giant of rock.

That are these people thinking?

Some of Dolly’s electric guitar jams rival Hendrix.
