As a resident of Dayton, Ohio, I'm saddened that Roger Troutman & ZAPP aren't inducted. Hits included "More Bounce for the Ounce", "I Wanna Be Your Man", "Computer Love" and various calaborations with Snoop Dogg including "California Love" Roger Troutman made the TalkBox famous in music. Time to induct a Trail Blazer!!!
