Prince and the Revolution

Prince was one of the greatest musicians of all time. His music was greatly diverse, ranging from post disco to funk to neo-psychedelia. This led him to be one of the most successful musicians of all time. He had numerous certified albums. Purple Rain went diamond. He had numerous hit singles, many chart-toppers. He won an Oscar. He won a Golden Globe. He won several Grammys. He is in the R&B Hall of Fame. Prince was inducted his first year of eligibility, an obvious choice. He performed the 2007 Super Bowl halftime show. Neither of his backing groups have been inducted. This is a shame. The Hall of Fame has a long history of neglecting backing groups. The Revolution should be inducted as they were the most significant. With them he garnered seven certified albums, Purple Rain going diamond. The New Power Generation only had four.
