The Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall Of Fame are cunts…
Not only is this gold plated music industry junket a load of snobbish and arselicking bollocks (David Bowie rightly turned then down and told them to fuck off), it is also now a PC sucking fest that embraces ‘diversity’… Just like the Academy Awards and all that other Yankee shite…
OK, The great Moody Blues have been nominated this year (Hurrah!), but Nina Simone has also been accepted into this year’s Hall Of Fame bash… Now, I have nothing against Simone as an artist or as a person… She was one of the few individuals and true to herself and her work artists of her time… But only a couple of years ago The Hall Of Fame said they could not accept The Carpenters into their ceremony, because Richard and Karen were not a Rock N’ Roll act… But neither was/is Nina…
Nina Simone was a soul (and some might say jazz) artist… Simone was anything but Rock ‘N’ Roll and she’d be the first to tell anyone that… I also doubt that Nina would have accepted this patronising pat on the back from Jann Wenner and his monkeysuited champagne sipping cronies… But because the great lady is long gone these cunts are using her name and legacy to prove how ‘diverse’ and PC they are… Yet they won’t let in other acts because they ‘don’t fit in’ (Carpenters, Monkees etc)…
And any Rock ‘N’ Roll Hall Of Fame that doesn’t include Slade, T-Rex, Joy Division, The Jam, or (Leslie West’s) Mountain is a load of cunt anyway…
