NEW YORK (AP) - Metallica, Run-D.M.C. and guitarist Jeff Beckare among this year's nominees for induction into the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame.
"Queen of Rockabilly" Wanda Jackson, R&B star Bobby Womack,
Disco-era groove band Chic (SHEEK), doo-woppers Little Anthony and
the Imperials, punk rockers the Stooges and the socially conscious
band War are also on the list of candidates to be added to the hall
during a ceremony in April.
The inductees will be selected by more than 500 voters. Only
five of the nine artists will make the cut.
To be eligible for induction into the hall, an act must have put
out its first single or album at least 25 years ago. That means
this year's nominees had to get their first material released no
later than 1983.
