Newest Rock Hall NomCom Member is....

Well, it's official, Cliff Burnstein is the newest member of the Rock Hall Nominating Committee.  Dave Marsh leaked his name in a followup email he sent me regarding the Spinners:

"Cliff is new to the committee and a fabulous asset because he loves soul as
much as he loves hard rock."


Burnstein is an interesting add.  An ex-manager of Rush on the NomCom might make fans of them think they have an easy path to a nomination.  But I bet, as with all things revolving around the committee, it's not that easy.  At least it wasn't this year, where Burnstein got the Spinners nominated.  Still, we don't know if he did argue to get  Rush in, and couldn't.
