Note omissions from 2012 class. I haven't counted them here, but there should be 227 inductees.

[Rob]

Johnny Cash | Hurt

Is this the only song you chose that the artist made after being inducted in the Hall of Fame? It's something rare, certainly.

[Hymie]

I would also include the early influences, which in some cases (Wanda Jackson) started their careers long after some of the regular inductees.
