 The Rolling Stones

(Wikipedia)

Brief notes - Keith Richards inducted Chuck Berry as the first artist in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.  Richards also inducted Aretha Franklin in the 1987 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame class.  Mick Jagger inducted The Beatles in the 1988 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame class.

Here's the thing.  There is little to be said about The Rolling Stones when so much is already known.  I will do my best.  As always though, refer to the Wikipedia link above as a history to date refresher.
