Produced by Preston Frazier, David Gordon, Bill Govier, Wayne Hall and Michel Arsenault.

It’s the Easter holidays for me but I still managed to catch up with Mark about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction and the following re-naming antics. It was fantastic to have audio from the event from Ken Fuller and Michel Arsenault and also photographs from Bob Mantin – thanks to all! Mark also reviews a Bill Bruford record!

  • How did the induction go?
  • Who played?
  • What were the speeches like?
