The Rock Hall Reconsidered Project: Round 38 Results
After the Round 37 Results were revealed, each nomination committee member was asked to compile another list of 40 currently-eligible artists to create the Round 38 ballot. With the addition of newly-eligible artists for the Class of 2019 (who released their first record in 1993) to the mix. With 27 spots available from the last round, the committee replaced their existing nominees and generated an official ballot for Round 38:
