[@GCRams]

@@GFSwinger1693 I personally think that the RRHOF needs to change their name to the Music Museum or Music Hall because RAP is not Rock and Roll. Neither is Gospel. Several bands never even had a single hit. There are so many Punk bands like the SexPistols, etc that I wonder how they even got in. They need to make a RRHOF that is specifically for Rock and Roll. Then Rock fans will see the likes of Grand Funk Railroad, BTO, Foreigner, etc will get in and fans can really appreciate those groups that really belong.

Guess Who and BTO are important contributors to the popular music culture of the US and Canada because they are not only talented but genuine. And I speak of not only Burton and Randy but all members of both bands because no one does this alone. I think it's good that the music fans are reminded of how impactful both bands have been. Each member of these bands can take pride that they made a difference. In short, Guess Who and BTO were embraced by music fans all over because they never forgot their roots in Winnipeg and were real! Job well done, guys!
