Electric Light Orchestra in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

To:  Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

The British band Electric Light Orchestra garnered 19 top 40 hits in the United States from 1972 until 1986.The music they performed has been an influence on artists ranging from Garth Brooks and Shania Twain to Foo Fighters,Guns and Roses,Matthew Sweet and countless others.They had a steady stream of gold and platinum albums until they disbanded in 1986.Frontman Jeff Lynne went on to work with some of the biggest names in popular music including,George Harrison,Roy Orbison,Brian Wilson,Tom Petty,Bob Dylan,Dave Edmunds,Paul McCartney,Randy Newman,Aerosmith,the Everly Brothers,Del Shannon and many others.So why,after being eligible since 1996,have ELO not been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?We think it's time.Thank You.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
