Unbelievable oversight by The Rock Hall. Little Junior Parker's music serves as a witness to the emergence of Rock and Roll from The Blues. Hard to explain many of the other inductees while he is absent.

I would love to see him appear in influence. Great in all his eras. (btw, his first recording, according to rateyourmusic, was 1952)
