Nice predictions Paul, I would have picked:

Afrika Bambaataa
Chic
Deep Purple/Kiss
Gram Parsons/Steve Miller Band
The Marvelettes
Nirvana

as my prediction for inductees. I balence the inductees based on race like what the Rock Hall did with 2013.

I'm thinking that Nirvana and N.W.A are the early locks for next year.
