NEW YORK — Three British exports from rock’s “new wave” of the late 1970s — The Police, The Clash and Elvis Costello and the Attractions — will join the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year. 

They’ll be inducted along with the Righteous Brothers, blue-eyed soul singers of “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’,” and Australian hard rockers AC/DC. 

The 18th annual Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be held March 10 in New York and televised later on VH1. 

The Police’s relatively short career included hits such as “Roxanne” and “Every Breath You Take.” Lead singer Sting maintains an active solo career.
