But even if that's not acceptable, what about the Grammy lifetime? Seems like at least Jean and Cindy could've been included in that. No disrespect to Lynda, Scherrie and Susaye, I can understand how they might be overlooked for these more specific awards, although in some general ones I think all the ladies- Barbara included- could have maybe been included in the honor.
Going back to Cindy and the RRHOF, with the rules being at least 25 years since the first recording, that would have automatically cancelled Cindy, because she had only joined the group 20 years ago. With Dennis being inducted in 1989, at 21 years with the Tempts, was he the first where this rule was suddenly flexible?
