Darlene Love -Her distant past wasn't exactly a worthy body of work.
Laura Nyro -Decent song writer, but not Hall of Fame material to me.
Donna Summer -You're kiddin' me, Part 3.
Joe Tex -The soul singer that was the first to rap, which should automatically eliminate him.
Tom Waits -I can see him getting in, but I've never been a fan of gravel.
Chuck Willis -A decent song writer, but not well known outside of the bid-ness.
