GET THE DELLS INDUCTED INTO THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME
Sign Now
The Inductees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame have been announced they include: The Police, The Righteous Brothers, and AC/DC. Once again THE MIGHTY, MIGHTY DELLS HAVE BEEN NOMINATED AND NOT INDUCTED! Marvin Junior, Johnnie Carter, Charles Barksdale, Michael McGill and Verne Allison began their illustrious career while attending Thornton Township High School located in Harvey, Illinois in 1953 after being coached by Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Harvey Fuqua and The Moonglows. The Dells (all current members are the original members) have been together and performing for over 45 years. Their hits included "Stay In My Corner", "Oh What A Night",and "Give Your Baby a Standing Ovation" to name a few. The highlight of The Dells' career, which introduced them to the "PEPSI Generation", was when director Robert Townsend wrote the inspiring movie "The Five Heartbeats" based on the tumultuous lives and career of The Dells. This film produced the hit sound track chartbuster "A Heart Is A House For Love" which catapulted The Dells into another dimension as superstars. I saw them perform live last year and they are were "Spectacular". Artists become eligible for the Rock Hall 25 years after the release of their first record. Criteria include "the influence and significance of the artist's contributions to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll," according to the organization. I BELIEVE THE DELLS HAVE DONE THIS AND MORE! I THINK THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE DELLS TO BE INDUCTED INTO THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME! PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION SO THE MIGHTY, MIGHTY DELLS CAN BE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAMERS NEXT YEAR! GOD BLESS!!!

This is a tremendous oversite. Surely this honor should not be enjoyed by only those who can run a sucessful popularity campaign. The Dells have checked all the boxes that document their success and staying power ( ALMOST 50 Years!) This should be an easy

Hearing the Dells reminds me of my youth and carefree days of being young. They well deserve to be listed in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
