And they will be put in, but not by fan vote.This is just like Warren Zevon this year, who got in via a “musical influence award.” LF is one of the best rock and roll bands of the 70s; and Waiting for Columbus is one of the best live recordings ever commercially released.

Had a friend that played with them in the studio for a while.

I still play this album quite often. I even like his covers of Hey Joe and Whiter Shade of Pale.
