The Rock Hall Reconsidered Project: Round 36 Results
After the Round 35 Results were revealed, each nomination committee member was asked to compile another list of 40 currently-eligible artists to create the Round 36 ballot. With the addition of newly-eligible artists for the Class of 2017 (who released their first record in 1991) to the mix. With 22 spots available from the last round, the committee replaced their existing nominees and generated an official ballot for Round 36:
