The Foundation oversees the Museum, the Library and Archives, the nominating and induction processes, fundraising and the induction ceremony, its biggest fundraiser. It seems many people define rock as white boys playing loud, with maybe a few exceptions that seem to prove the rule. Many others have a broad definition of rock using one rule of thumb or another. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame uses a broad definition, pointing back to the beginning of rock in the late 4. Personally, I define rock from the perspective of Alan Freed, the disc jockey who popularized the term rock and roll to refer to the music rather than just sex. Freed played what we would call early R B and doo wop, and called that rock and roll. I define rock and roll as any music Freed played and any music that is derived from what Freed played. And that covers a lot of music. My analysis started as a reaction to many theories about who the nomcom nominates. People have written that the nomcom nominates this type of act or that type of act. The analysis has now grown beyond a tool of disproving theories to just being plain interesting. So, first, lets look at this years R RHo.

W. Ahe Smithshe Spinnerses. Next, lets look at the subgenres represented. Note  artists dont like being labeled by subgenres or styles. Its not how they usually look at creating music, and they see it as a type of pigeon holing that keeps people from hearing their music. That said, fans, radio stations and retailers use subgenres or styles to help them sort through the myriads of acts to find acts that to them seem similar. I dont mean to offend any artists, but please understand this is how fans view music acts. Alternative. 1 Dance pop. Rick Springfield Rock Of Life Rare OpportunityDisco. Funk. 1 Jazz rock.
