Dion and the Belmonts

Dion is a rock and roll musician who broke through during the popularity of doo wop in the fifties with his backing group The Belmonts. With them he had several hits. However, it was not until the sixties that he truly became successful. He left the Belmonts and went solo. His first album was a hit. He had numerous hit singles with Runaround Sue being a chart-topper. Despite his greater success as a solo artist it was with the Belmonts that he had his classic hits I Wonder Why and A Teenager in Love. Thus it is shameful that they were excluded when Dion was inducted and even more so when all the neglected backing groups were inducted in 2012.
