Johnny Rivers (John Henry Ramistella)

On June 12, 2009, Johnny Rivers was inducted into the Louisiana
Music Hall of Fame. His name has been suggested many times for
induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but he has never
been selected. Rivers, however, is a nominee for 2015 induction
into America’s Pop Music Hall of Fame. His father played guitar
and mandolin and was his earliest musical inspiration.
