It's Still Rock N Roll to Me

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a permanent exhibit in the Museum that celebrates the lives and work of the Hall of Fame inductees. It encompasses a frenetic film presented on three giant screens featuring all of the inductees of every year; a stunning “juke box” containing virtually every song of the inducted artists, an artifact showcase of the current year’s inductees, a reel of highlights of the induction ceremonies, and the inductees’ signatures etched in glass, all housed in a circular theater that juts out dramatically above Lake Erie. Inductees performers Chuck Berry James Brown Ray Charles Sam Cooke Fats Domino The Everly Brothers Buddy Holly Jerry Lee Lewis Elvis Presley Little Richard The Coasters Eddie Cochran Bo Diddley Aretha Franklin Marvin Gaye Bill Haley B.
