Well... if you put the Ventures in the RRHOF...then
you'll
need to add Dick Dale and Paul Johnson...and those
idiots
at RRHOF don't even know who those guys are
either...can
you imagine, never hearing of the freakin' Ventures,
Dick
Dale nor Paul Johnson? What a pitiful shame.
But, I would definately add The Ventures on the merits
of
Mel Taylor's rockin'g-cool drumming alone...pure and
awesome drums!
