I think the fact that Peter's music from '66-'70 is still held in high regards with many musicians, especially guitarists, would have insured his place in the Hall. If he hadn't done all those drugs, he might not have written SOME songs, but I think his musicianship was so great prior to all of that, that if he had stayed clean, and never quit the band, he might have made even BETTER music over a greater period of time. I think the massive success of the "Rumours" band gave new life to his legacy, but it WAS a legacy he earned.
