They need to get in NOW! Long overdue for Paul's 3rd induction as well. Wings should have been in a long time ago.

A dynamic rock band in its own right when Disco was dominating the air waves! Saw Wings in Boston 1976 and what a great show it was!

Well overdue!!!!! The music of "Wings" was the best of that era and has and will continue to stand the test of time! The Hall's doors should be thrown open wide for Paul, Linda, Denny and the rest of the gang!!
