Sheryl Crow reveals who’s overdue to join her in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Thirty years ago, Sheryl Crow proved that she was more than “Strong Enough” to hang with the heavyweights of the pop world with her Grammy-winning debut, 1993’s “Tuesday Night Music Club.’

Now the 61-year-old singer is joining music’s most exclusive club in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame when the induction ceremony takes place Friday night at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center (with the festivities streaming live on Disney+ at 8 p.m. ET). 

But while it has most certainly made Crow happy to be a part of the class of 2023  — where she’ll be enshrined in the Performer Category alongside Kate Bush, Missy Elliott, Willie Nelson, Rage Against the Machine, the Spinners and the late George Michael — she has some thoughts about who is overdue for the elite recognition.

One, ’70s rock sensation Peter Frampton, is especially close to her heart. 

“My first concert when I was 13 was Peter Frampton, and, you know, it’s like, ‘Dude, you need to be in the rock hall,’ ” Crow told The Post. 

“It’s like one of those things where I go, ‘Oh, why am I getting in and he’s not in yet?’ ”

The “All I Wanna Do” diva is also giving her “plug” to another female rocker.

“I would say I would like to do a lot of work for Melissa Etheridge [to get inducted],” says Crow, “because I think not only does she have a lot of hits that still stand the test of time, but she also opened the doors for a lot of not just women, but people in general. So I’m hoping that she gets recognized. I mean, she’s very deserving.”

After once being a background singer for another Rock & Roll Hall of Famer — Michael Jackson — on his 1987-89 “Bad” Tour, the Kennett, Missouri, native found solo stardom with “Tuesday Night Music Club” three decades ago.

“We didn’t really see it as a record that was gonna make a huge impact, and the fact that it opened up doors not only for me to produce myself, but for other young women to follow suit and get to produce themselves because of the success of the next record [1996’s “Sheryl Crow”] — I mean, that’s the gift that keeps on giving,” she says.

The former elementary-school music teacher — who will be on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Thursday night and “Good Morning America” on Friday” — is reflecting on her 30-year journey as an artist as she enters the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

“When you’re younger, you’re on a course to kind of establish who you are, figure out who you are,” says Crow. “And then as you get older, you realize that everything in life is a reminder of who you started out as.

“At a certain point, you forget what you’ve learned, and you just get back to who you are — and you remember the essence of why you started out doing what you’re doing.”
