Rock Hall's Elvis Connection

I was just thinking that the reason the 2009 Rock Hall inductees didn't upset me like before is that 3 of the inductees have an Elvis connection. There's Wanda Jackson who once toured with Elvis in the 50's and through his encouragement went from a Country singer to a Rockabilly one. She later went back to Country. And then Bill Black and DJ Fontana who backed Elvis on his greatest recordings, the Sun ones. So, what the hell, maybe 2009 was a good year for the Rock Hall, despite the awful 2 acts they chose (and you know who I think they are).
