Now here is an artist and band that deserves a serious look.
Just for the fact that it is the perfect example of rock tragedy and lost potential.
What Bobby Fuller produced in such short time is significant.
Unfortunately it is a 60s act and with only 5 acts inducted a year, the chances are extremely narrow.
In the same boat as other 60s acts like Johnny Rivers, Shangri Las, and Jackie DeShannon.
All of which deserving nominations.
And induction.

I really don't see Bobby Fuller in the same league/boat ..As Jackie or Johnny Specially Jackie!
or even The Shanghai Las ... I like his music but Innovation is lacking IMO .... The other were trail blazers Jackie really set a new tone in her hay day. Johnny kept reinventing himself...

He had some nice stuff love A "New Shade Of Blue" and Rock House....He even did Misirlou..lol
But putting Him with Jackie or johnny Rivers IMO is a stretch ,,,,,,,He had lots of vocal feel
He is sadly missed .... Hey ya never know Talent he had....
