(Classic Rock) Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble have convincingly topped the public poll for induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame for the class of 2015.

The late blues icon drew over 18 million votes, nearly a third of the total, and put him ahead of Nine Inch Nails, Joan Jett, Bill Withers, the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Lou Reed and others.

The result means Vaughan will have an additional "fans' ballot" vote in his favour as the Rock Hall's panel of industry experts choose between 15 nominees.

While it's not a guaranteed result, previous fan vote winners Kiss and Rush were both given the honor. Read more and see the vote results here.
