Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
Did you reply to the wrong comment? Because I don't get how arguing that one person should be in the hall of fame is an argument either for or against an argument that other foundational people should also have been in the hall of fame from the start.
Jim's great, no argument there, but he's much more a transformational force in a later generation of Rock 'n Roll than anything like a founding father/mother.
I was responding to the "gave birth to rock n roll" part. Maybe I mistook what you meant by that. And fair enough for Hendrix being more a transformational force. I was meaning in the sense of impacting the genre overall, and all the sub-genres he spawned.
But I wasn't arguing that she should not be in the hall of fame/from the start. I didn't say anything like that.
Oh, well then you misspelled CHUCK BERRY
