Elton John will present an award to Leon Russell who he collaborated with on the album 'The Union' last year, Canadian Press reports.

Paul Simon will be inducting Neil Diamond into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.

Other musicians shortlisted included Beastie Boys, Bon Jovi, Donna Summer and LL Cool J. The ceremony is scheduled to take place in New York on March 14.
