Beatle Harrison nominated to ‘Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame’
Former Beatle George Harrison, Prince, John Mellencamp and Jackson Browne are among the nominees on the ‘2004 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’ ballot.

Harrison, who died of cancer in November 2001, is already in the rock hall as a member of the Beatles. Former bandmates John Lennon and Paul McCartney preceded him for their solo work. Both Harrison and Mellencamp are former Billboard Century Award honorees.

Previous nominees back for another try include the Sex Pistols, Black Sabbath, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Gram Parsons and Patti Smith. Other nominees include the Dells, the “5” Royales, Bob Seger, the Stooges, Traffic and ZZ Top.

Ballots were mailed last month to voting members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. Artistes are eligible to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame after at least 25 years have passed since their first record was released. The inductees are likely will be announced in December.
