In honor of June's monthlong celebration of Black Music Month, we're kicking off the first week celebrating 1987 Inductee Aretha Franklin. From her Induction Ceremony to numerous performances during American Music Master tributes, the 1995 Concert for the Rock Hall and 25th anniversary ceremony, Franklin was a dynamic and captivating artist that left an indelible mark on rock & roll.

We've got your first-row ticket to witness the iconic moments.
