Inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This page is a partial list of inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, taken from the list on the Hall of Fame's website.
From 1986, there were four categories of induction: performers, non-performers, early influences, and lifetime achievement. In 2000, "sidemen" was introduced as a category.

[edit] Multiple inductees
Some people have been inducted more than once. The current record holder is Eric Clapton who has been inducted three times. These include:
- Eric Clapton (The Yardbirds, Cream, solo career)
- Johnny Carter (The Flamingos, The Dells)
- Sam Cooke (The Soul Stirrers, solo career)
- David Crosby (The Byrds, Crosby, Stills & Nash)
- George Harrison (The Beatles, solo career)
- Michael Jackson (The Jackson Five, solo career)
- John Lennon (The Beatles, solo career)
- Curtis Mayfield (The Impressions, solo career)
- Paul McCartney (The Beatles, solo career)
- Clyde McPhatter (The Drifters, solo career)
- Jimmy Page (The Yardbirds, Led Zeppelin)
- Paul Simon (Simon and Garfunkel, solo career)
- Stephen Stills (Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills & Nash)
- Neil Young (Buffalo Springfield, solo career)
The most honored band is the Beatles. Three of the Fab Four have been inducted as solo artists. Their longtime producer Sir George Martin has also been inducted, as has Phil Spector who produced the album Let It Be.
Several performers have been inducted as members of one band, but were not officially inducted when one of their other bands got enshrined. Some examples:
- Terry Chimes: inducted with The Clash but not with Black Sabbath
- Clem Burke: inducted with Blondie but not with the Ramones
- Neil Young: inducted as a solo artist and as a member of Buffalo Springfield, but not as a member of Crosby, Stills and Nash
- Sly Stone: inducted with Sly & The Family Stone but not with Parliament-Funkadelic
The performer who missed by the narrowest margin would arguably be drummer Kenney Jones. First, he played for The Faces whose lead singer Rod Stewart was inducted as a solo artist only. Then, he joined The Who in 1978 after the untimely death of Keith Moon, and was an official member of the band until they broke up for the first time in 1982. However, only the four founding members of the Who were enshrined.da:Navne i Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
