Yeah allot is missing from the Rock and Roll hall of fame but the whole Rock and Roll establishment is contrived and pretentious so I wouldn't expect them to reckognise someone as genius as Delia Derbyshire.

@wado1942 Delia has no need to be in the R & R hall off fame...... She is bigger than that!
