DETROIT (WWJ) – The 2023 nominees for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame have been released, and among them are two big names from Detroit: The White Stripes and The Spinners.

On a new Daily J, WWJ’s Zach Clark not only tries to figure out if a wider definition is a good thing, but also profiles Jack White and the White Stripes, as well as The Spinners.
