I hope The Pretty Things will be inducted within the next few years. They are not well known in the USA as they are in their native Britain and Europe, but they influenced bands like The Ramones. Their music was considered more rock and roll than The Rolling Stones and they are a pioneer in garage rock. They are on tour this year celebrating 50 years.

While I just found about them in looking at their illustrious career and the influence their music had on generations of musicians of the '60's and throughout the '20's they need to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
