The following performers will take their rightful place in The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in 2011:Neil Diamond,Darlene Love,Alice Cooper,Dr.John & Tom Waits-While the first four artists have had hit records,the same can't be said for Waits-However,his composition "Downtown Train" was a huge hit for Rod Stewart in late 1989.

Congrats to Neil Diamond, Alice Cooper, & Tom Waits for getting in! I think Dr. John should have been inducted in the Sidemen category. Darlene Love got in because of Bruce Springsteen & Steven Van Zandt.
The nominees that did not get inducted were the Beastie Boys, Bon Jovi, Donna Summer, Donovan, the J. Geils Band, LL Cool J, Laura Nyro, Chic, Joe Tex, & Chuck Willis.
Jukebox forgot to mention that the Non-Performer inductees are Elektra Records founder Jac Holzman & Specialty Records founder Art Rupe. Also, Leon Russell is inducted in the Musical Excellence (aka Sidemen) category.
