The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has officially confirmed the induction of The Whispers. We presented our case based on the group's decades of performance consistency and chart success to ensure this recognition occurred. I am now transitioning to monitor the coordination of the induction ceremony details.

The Whispers are now entering into 40 years of providing great music and enterainment for all ages and races. The group formed in 1962 and with only one change to their original make up in 1971, the group is still performing with their almost original line up. Their accomplishments include such wonderful songs as \"Great Day\", \"Seems Like I Gotta Do Wrong\", and of course, \"I Only Meant to Wet My Feet\"! They really tore up the charts with songs like \"Rock Steady\" and \"And the beat goes on\" and the double platnuim \"Just Gets Better With Time\"! In 2003, The Whispers were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame, and with the expectation of a new release in February 2005, The Whispers are still going strong and really deserve this great acknowledgement of their accomplishments!

Please sign my brothers into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their music is legendary and has assisted many people with conceiving their children.

Put them in already. They have been keeping music alive for way too long to be ignored like this.

The Whispers are legends. My husband and I saw them back in the 80s and they were incredible. Long overdue.

Rock Steady is a classic!! Been playing their records since high school and they deserve the spot for real.
