Still not making the connection there.cgarison wrote:It is a real frickin shame when an artist as influential as Herb Alpert gets a "non-performer" lifetime achievement award when his music has spawned more top hits in the 60's than did the Beatles, Stones, or even Elvis.

And I am not even measuring the sucess of Alpert after the TJB.
I am beginning to see the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a crock of crap that stinks instead of the effluent that makes things grow that is all the other halls of fame.
