It's really weird to do this because I'm looking at rankings that of course I don't always agree with. So what do I do when I think an artist should be above Gene Pitney but below Traffic? B^)

Donna Summer - 93
Public Enemy - 95
Rush - 169
Heart - 183
Randy Newman - 196
Albert King - 197

Unless they suddenly ad an early influence to this year's inductees, we'll pick this thread back up after the 2014 inductees are announced.

I'm really impressed with the results. Even with the limited number of participants it turned out really well. Good job, Bruce.

Better to have a small number of real knowledgable people than a large number of not so knowledgable people.

I also ended up really enjoying this. Thanks for running it, Bruce. Didn't you say somewhere in this thread though that you were going to make a similar project about the most deserving artists not yet in the hall? That could end up being even more interesting imo.

I enjoyed it too. I found the challenge of deciding each week who to add to my ballot to be very interesting.

It forces you to think about artists that you don't necessarily like personally.
