You know I am rooting for Ronstadt, always have, always will. I will be casting my votes for Hall and Oates, N.W.A., The Zombies, and of course Chic.
Given the nominees, the class of 2014 should turn out to be a good one. I don't know about you, but narrowing it down to 5 was tough for me. Speaking of the Zombies, have you heard their 1968 album "Odessey and Oracle"?
