"This remarkable ballot reflects the diversity and depth of the artists and music the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame celebrates," John Sykes, chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, said in a statement. "These nominees have left an indelible impact on the sonic landscape of the world and influenced countless artists that have followed them."
The list will be whittled down and the inductees' names will be announced in May.
