Herb Gets In From The Side
Notes From The Rock And Roll Hall Of FameNo Herb Alpert would never be inducted as a recording artist. Let's say he snuck in the Hall from an open side door. No knock. I liked the Tijuana Brass, but not in the Hall. Alpert and Jerry Moss' induction for A&M makes me think that every label head will get inducted eventually. But all the big names are being scooped up. The future doesn't look so easy to predict. Shouldn't Shirley Robinson get a nod for Sugar Hill. Russell Simmons will get in for Def Jam. But I can't think of many more.
