The first induction ceremony was staged in 1969. Quote: “The songs have a rhythmic jolt that can’t help but make your head nod back and forth and singing along amounts to a virtual reflex due to the anthemic nature of the material” – Songwriters Hall of Fame website 389 individuals have been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame since the inaugural ceremony in 1969. Crosby, Stills & Nash, in 2009, are the only other complete group to be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
