Latter-generation punks Green Day won spots in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Tuesday, joining older legends in the band & #039;s first year of eligibility. Other 2015 inductees into the hall of fame include Bill Withers, the soul singer best known for his 1972 song & quot;Lean on Me, & quot; and hard rockers Joan Jett & amp; the Blackhearts. Three deceased artists round out the new entrants: the avant-garde Lou Reed -- whose Velvet Underground was already inducted as a group -- along with electric blues guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan and blues singer Paul Butterfield. The winners mark the 30th round of artists to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
