Martha should be in R&R hall of fame.
Her voice is awesome

I consider Martha Davis in the Top 10-15 female rock singers of all time. She deserves to be in the RRHOF!!

After watching the VH1 bands reunited gig with the Motels, it would be a travesty if they are not enshrined into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There is no sad ending to this group of musicians. Recognize their talent, please!
