Dave Matthews Band has been eligible for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame since 2019 and was nominated once before — in 2021 — before making the cut this year.
A jam band known for plentiful, and obsessively attended, live shows, Dave Matthews Band has also had quite an impressive recording career. They are the only band to have seven consecutive albums debut at #1.
Continuing my look at 1994, first by counting down my own top ten albums of that year.
