These are the bands and artists with the most Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominations without ever being inducted:

* Chic (11 times on the ballot; Nile Rodgers is in the hall in the producer/sideman category)

* Chuck Willis (6 times)

* J. Geils Band (5 times)

* Joe Tex, Rufus and The Meters (4 times)

Other big names with multiple nominations: Devo, Eric B & Rakim, Iron Maiden, Jane’s Addiction, New York Dolls, Gram Parsons, The Smiths, Soundgarden, War.

Which of these bands/artists strike you as the biggest snubs? And, on the other hand, which of these names just didn’t have hall of fame-worthy careers?
