I just found out Huey and His Clowns haven't been inducted in TRNRHOF. Tragic. The man is STILL alive and contributed immensely to RNR a Hell of a lot more than a lot of artists that have already been inducted. Get on it!!!!

No one will ever take the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame seriously while it continues to ignore Women-ie refusing to accept Tina as an individual plus continuing to fail to honor fabulous
R and B pioneers such as Joe Tex
And Huey Piano Smith.Deeply racist
And misogynistic .
