He is a great singer and should have been in the rocknroll Hall of fame years ago Posted by Brian Davies on Wednesday, 02/16/2022 @ 08:46am |
I totally agree. It's a crime that Mr. Roy Hamilton is not in the Rock and Roll HOF. Before there was Elvis, there was Roy Hamilton. In one year 1954 the songs he recorded was either number one or in the top ten including crossover, also covered by artists that made the top ten. Epic Records was put on the map by Mr. Hamilton in it's inaugural year of 1954. I can't understand why this gifted singer was overlooked by the Rock and Roll HOF committee. It's sad and shocking.

Elvis Presley copied much of his appealing style from Roy Hamilton. Posted by Dr Ron Bernard on Tuesday, 07/5/2022 @ 11:43am |
