Who would you like to see inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?

Swedish supergroup Abba, veteran progressive rockers Genesis, reggae great Jimmy Cliff, punk iconoclasts the Stooges and Britrock pioneers the Hollies were all inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Monday night.
The ceremony took place at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City although the Hall itself is in Cleveland.
Full story.
Some have questioned whether Abba, with catchy hits such as Dancing Queen and Waterloo, qualified as a rock band. Industry Minister Tony Clement even tweeted about it, writing "ABBA in the [Rock and Roll Hall of Fame]?? And no Rush? This world is just so confusing..."
Who do you think should receive the honour next? Are any musicians overdue for induction?
