It's a travesty Patrice Rushen is NOT in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. Her indelible contributions to music/recording industry are unmatched.

She has been a prolific songwriter, recording artist, Concert Master and Musical Director for various artists, many of whom have already been inducted. Her talents after 22 years of eligibility are long overdue for recognition. On so many levels, a Rock N Roll Hall of Fame induction would be the crowning moment of an illustrious career.

How in the hell one of the best all around entertainers in the world Patrice Rushen not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. What can't she do. A singer a producer a conductor, and can play various instruments. Wake up and look at the flower right in front of you.
