Would The Rock Hall Honor The Delfonics?

I know Dave Marsh has criticized the Rhythm & Blues Foundation for not doing enough with its money to help out artists with medical and living expenses. And he may have a point. But my focal point is in who they honor. The 2006 inductees are the firt since 2003 because no one could come up with enough money for an award show. Yeah, that's hard to believe. But the R&BF do a good job of honoring people who don't get many lifetime awards. So, look at these names: Thom Bell, Chubby Checker, Berry Gordy, Otis Redding, Bettye Lavette, Barbara Mason, Delfonics and Frankie Beverly & Maze. Only Gordy and Redding are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Thom Bell should be, but the others will never be. But that's no knock on them. They gave us great R&B. And for that I applaud the foundation. While hoping they get the rest of their act together.
