Besides the Buzzcocks should be in before The Dead kennedys or Black Flag, shouldn't they?

You're right, no doubt, re Pistols and Stooges. Actually, there are some parallels between X and the Stooges; influential and important American band, a few great albums, etc. They should both be in.
I love the Buzzcocks. "Ever fallen in love with someone" is one of the most perfect pop songs of all time. In highschool, I had a home-made Buzzcocks shirt with the lyrics to "Boredom" written on the back. That said, I think DK and Black Flag are more Hall-worthy (whatever that means).
