I am not a Streisand fan, but “Sandinista”? Really? Personally, especially when compared to what’s going on right now in the world, I’d saying calling someone a Sandinista is a compliment, but I’m sure you don’t mean it that way. Also, I’m sure your beloved CSN would be so proud of you for using that term as pejorative against a fellow musical artist (That was sarcasm. They wouldn’t). I DID NOT WRITE 'SANDANISTA". no way, no how. i remember using the red spell check and changing the big "S" to a small one, but no way i changed the wor i have no idea how that got there. apologies to all and if the gorts can change that to streisand it would be great. mea culpa....mea culpa....mea maxima culpa

On the 50th anniversary of Woodstock where are?: Joe Cocker Country Joe and the Fish (played both Monterey and Woodstock) Canned Heat (played both Monterey and Woodstock) Ten Years After Tim Hardin Richie Havens It was a different time, particularly pre-1967. In my eyes, and I would guess in the eyes of the "youngsters" back then, there weren't these huge divisions among acts. These days, people get all hung up about whether this act or that act is "rock and roll", etc., and that doesn't really reflect how their music was regarded at the time. Dionne Warwick should be in. If anything, it would be weird for her much younger cousin Whitney Houston to get in before her. I don’t think Dionne Warwick (her cousin, Cissy’s sister’s daughter), has ever been nominated, despite being among the best selling female artists of the 20th century. I think that the Hall isn’t that fond of the female acts that came out of the Brill Building, a group of artists that were huge from the end of the 50’s to around the mid-sixties. I think the assembly line nature of the songwriting and the distinction between rock and “pop” have hurt them. But that distinction didn’t exist in the early 60’s, when young people that listened to “rock and roll” listened to the Beatles, the Stones, And Motown, but also liked Leslie Gore, Dionne Warwick and Dusty Springfield as well. It was a different era.To ignore Lesley Gore, the most popular female artist in the pre-Beatles era, makes little sense, except for the pop/rock distinction that didn't even exist in 1963. Her performance in The T.A.M.I. Show is wonderful. I love the end where Chuck Berry, Jan & Dean, Gerry and the Pacemakers, Smokey Robinson and Marvin Gaye join her on stage. It really was a different time.

I saw Country Joe & The Fish (they were without Barry Melton so went under a different name) ages ago, and it was one of the most boring things I’ve seen. That’s a tough achievement when you’re playing a folk festival and every other act is interminably dull.

I personally can’t stand Madonna, but the logical pretzels in which folks are twisting in order to dismiss her impact and importance makes me want to throw my Beatles box sets into the sewer. “Rock” fans are the worst. Especially when they hang around here. Feel free. Or maybe you could use the ignore function. It's there for a reason. I've lost count of how many obnoxious Madonna fans I've added to mine.

All these sjw inductions disgust me. Madonna, NWA, Prince, Joan Jett, Janet Jackson, Stevie Wonder, etc... all token inclusivity votes. Well affirmative action disgusts me that inducting clowns like those above keeps truly talented legendary white artists out. Ram Jam's Black Betty alone outranks the combined discographies of those above artists, and why aren't they in when the song even has "Black" in the title, shouldn't that give them some woke progressive points? Why aren't The Knack in?
