Harrison makes Hall of Fame

Two years after his death, former Beatle George Harrison is being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Harrison leads a class of 2004 inductees, announced today, that includes Prince, Jackson Browne, Bob Seger, Traffic, ZZ Top and the Dells.

The singer and guitarist, who died in November 2001 aged 58, already has been inducted into the hall as a member of the Beatles.

As a solo artist, his songs included All Those Years Ago and Got My Mind Set On You, although his career was always eclipsed by the legendary success of his old band.

Artists are eligible for induction into the hall 25 years after their first recording is released.

Prince, whose biggest album remains the Purple Rain, is being inducted upon his first eligibility.

The induction ceremony is scheduled for March 15 in New York City.
