Pink Floyd have been inducted into
yet another Hall of Fame, following on from their November 2005
induction into the UK Music one.
Legendary adult magazine Playboy
have inducted the band in recognition of their "unprecedented combined
commercial and musical gravitas" in the March 2006 "Sex And Music"
issue, in US stores now.

They call the group "Godfathers of acid and
prog rock, ambient music," adding that the band is "so integral to the
fabric of modern rock 'n' roll".
In the accompanying reader's
poll, Foo Fighters win the best rock album, U2 are voted best live act,
and John Coltrane's "Live At The Half Note" wins best jazz album.
The magazine is in US stores now,
and available as an import in selected other countries. It is not known
if the music awards will be included in localised editions of the
magazine, though.
