For his albums in the 70's alone, he's deserving. And then all his collaboration projects. Methinks.

it's a shame he hasn't been recognized when so many lesser artists
have. He should make it in solely on the basis of Buena Vista Social
Club and his work on many other film soundtracks. But he's also among
the best guitar players in the rock world, especially slide guitar, a
great composer and songwriter. And who else has played with as diverse
a group as Bill Monroe and Doc Watson, Captain Beefheart, Taj Mahal,
The Rolling Stones, Ali Farke Toure and V.M. Bhatt?
Other mindboggling omissions from the HoF:
Lowell George & Little Feat
Richard Thompson (don't think he's ever even been nominated!)
Al Kooper
MC5
Jethro Tull (seriously??)
King Crimson
Phish (even tho I'm not a phan)
Los Lobos
Brian Eno
Willie Nelson
Merle Haggard
Link Wray
Captain Beefheart
Carole King (as a performer; she's in as a songwriter)
Warren Zevon
Gram Parsons (!!!)
