 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honors the legendary performers, producers, songwriters, disc jockeys and others who have made rock and roll the force that it is in our culture.
For a decade and a half, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation has been nominating and electing those figures, and honoring them at an annual ceremony that has become one of the most celebrated events of the year, and certainly one of the hottest tickets in rock.
Ceremonies have featured many unforgettable moments: like when Mick Jagger, Tina Turner, Bob Dylan, members of the Beach Boys and Bruce Springsteen, among others, shared the same stage, or when Santana performed “Black Magic Woman” with ex-Fleetwood Mac member Peter Green, the song’s composer and original performer.
