one of my pet peeves is that the Monkees aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Because the sole owner of said 'hall of fame' hated them.
-First band to use a moog synthesizer.
-crazy amount of #1 records- at one point they had more singles on the charts than the Beatles
-first 'formed' boy-band
etc.
And at LEAST this guy–he 'invented' the concept of a musical video broadcasting channel MTV and sold it to Ted Turner. plus a prolific song-writer.
