Uncle Tupelo was simply one of the finest bands on the 1990s.
They never achieved commercial success, quite often great bands just don't, but the impact they had on alternative county / country-rock music was huge.
I consider "No Depression" and "Anodyne" among the best albums in Rock & Roll history. Bands of their caliber are the ones we should expect to see inducted. It's very sad to note that people posted hundreds of comments for shitty pop icons like Mariah Carey and there are very few comments posted for this seminal band.

Uncle Tupelo were wildly talented and productive. They were alt-country. Their music was influential on a whole generation of alt-country and americana artists, and their talent is shown not only in their work, but the work of the splinters of the band who still continue to make great music today.
