Saw these guys back in the 70's and they were GREAT. Can't believe that they are not even on the list. NWA et al.....? Really? That ain't RR and these guys blow them away, along with many that are already in the HOF.

Rest in Peace Gil Bridges, saxophone, flute and vocals, and last surviving original member of Rare Earth, 1941-2021.

This is a no brainer. Rare Earth was a rare band with so much soul without a black member. Gil Bridges has a voice second to none. He also was a great saxophone player. S must soon in the Hall.

Peter Rivera was Rare Earth without him they'd never had a hit. He is an Awesome drummer and a most Powerful Great Voice, Peter Rivera is why Rare Earth should & Must Be in The Rock N Roll Hall of Fame ❗️
