<P> The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has garnered criticism for allegedly allowing the nomination process to be controlled by a few individuals, nominating too many artists in too many genres that are not entirely rock, ignoring entire rock genres, and using technicalities to induct groups who may not have been among the top vote getters . The Sex Pistols, who were inducted in 2006, refused to attend the ceremony; John Lydon writing a note, read out by Jann Wenner, calling the museum a "piss stain ." </P> <P> The performers category is meant for recording artists and bands that have "influence and significance to the development and perpetuation of rock and roll ." Artists become eligible for induction in that category 25 years after the release of their first record . In order to be inducted, an artist must be nominated by a committee that selects anywhere from nine to a dozen candidates . Ballots are sent to 600 "rock experts" who then evaluate the candidates and vote on who should be inducted . The performers who receive the highest number of votes and more than 50 percent of the vote are inducted . In 2011, the number inducted was five . The rest of the categories are voted on by special committees . In 2012, six additional bands and groups were inducted as performers by a special committee, due to the controversial nature of their band being excluded when their lead singer was inducted . "There was a lot of discussion about this," said Terry Stewart, a member of the nominating committee . "There had always been conversations about why the groups weren't included when the lead singers were inducted . Very honestly, nobody could really answer that question--it was so long ago...We decided we'd sit down as an organization and look at that . This is the result ." </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Year </Th> <Th> Image </Th> <Th> Name </Th> <Th> Inducted members </Th> <Th> Inducted by </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Chuck Berry </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Keith Richards </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> James Brown </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Steve Winwood </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Ray Charles </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Quincy Jones </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Sam Cooke </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Herb Alpert </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Fats Domino </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Billy Joel </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> The Everly Brothers </Td> <Td> Don Everly and Phil Everly . </Td> <Td> Neil Young </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Buddy Holly </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> John Fogerty </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Jerry Lee Lewis </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Hank Williams Jr . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Little Richard </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Roberta Flack </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 1986 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Elvis Presley </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Julian and Sean Lennon </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> The Coasters </Td> <Td> Carl Gardner, Cornell Gunter, Billy Guy, and Will "Dub" Jones . </Td> <Td> Lester Sill </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Eddie Cochran </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Mick Jones </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Bo Diddley </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> ZZ Top </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Aretha Franklin </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Keith Richards </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Marvin Gaye </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Nick Ashford and Valerie Simpson </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Bill Haley </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> Chuck Berry </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> B.B.
