THE VOICE OF CHICAGO'S GAY, LESBIAN, BI, TRANS AND QUEER COMMUNITY SINCE 1985

The musicians who the Hall's voters chose include Dolly Parton, Duran Duran, Pat Benatar, Eminem, Lionel Richie, Eurythmics and Carly Simon, according to Variety. Parton famously tried to get her name removed from the nomination list.

There are eight more acts getting in who were not included in the competition but were selected by the board for inclusion in other categories. These include the band Judas Priest (led by out singer Rob Halford), which was on the ballot this year but didn't make the cut with voters; the Hall's keepers decided the metal group was essential to include nonetheless. Also selected for enshrinement were producer-musicians Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis; singers Harry Belafonte (the oldest inductee, at 95) and Elizabeth Cotten; and executives Sylvia Robinson, Jimmy Iovine and Allen Grubman.

Those who didn't make the cut included Beck, Devo, Dionne Warwick, A Tribe Called Quest, the MC5, Kate Bush, Rage Against the Machine, the New York Dolls and Fela Kuti.

The 37th annual induction ceremony has also been given a city and a date. After the event took place in Cleveland last year, for 2022 it will move back to the Microsoft Theater in downtown Los Angeles, on Nov. 5. A recording of the show will air at a later date on HBO, on HBO Max for streaming, and on SiriusXM's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Radio channel 310 and SiriusXM's Volume channel 106.
