Game 3, Round 5 (Audio) -- Recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
inductees
In 2006 and 2007, there were ten performer inductees (five each year) to the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland, Ohio. (Well,
technically, the 2007 inductees haven't been inducted yet -- that happens on
March 12, 2007 -- but they've been announced.)
We'll give you a clue, consisting of the birth (and death, if relevant)
dates of the person, or the years the band was founded and/or broke up
and/or reformed -- and also thirty seconds or so of music. Name the
