A record number of British performers are to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year, with Oasis, heavy metal legends Iron Maiden and Sade amongst those voted in.
The total of six British acts out of eight inductees includes Manchester's Joy Division and New Order (who are being treated as one act), Phil Collins (previously inducted in 2010 as a member of Genesis) and rocker Billy Idol.
In the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's 40-year history, the previous record for British acts being inducted in a single year was five, when Radiohead, The Cure, Def Leppard, Roxy Music and The Zombies were all honoured in 2019.
As recently as 2021, there were no British inductees at all.
