Billy Joel Led The Campaign For Warren Zevon’s First Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Nomination

The late, great singer-songwriter Warren Zevon is among this year’s nominees for the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. Zevon died in 2003, and he’s been eligible for the Rock Hall since 1994, but he’s never been nominated until now. That may be partially because Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner, who co-founded the Hall and served as chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Foundation until 2020, famously held a grudge against Zevon. But other Wenner foes such as Rush have been inducted since he stepped down, so maybe Zevon has a shot.
