Inductee Insights: Roxy Music 

They sure as hell don't make music like this anymore. Congrats to Roxy Music - one of the most original and charismatic bands ever.

One of the most important and influential bands to ever come out of the 70's. They rivaled every artist and band that was popular at the time.

I've been playing in bands for over 45 years and it was all inspired by Roxy Music.

About bloody time. Should have been inducted in 1972!

That brought it all back for me .A young 12yr old girl watching TOTP in 1973 .Roxy Music singing Streetlife and seeing Bryan it just hit me between the eyes !! From then on completely addicted !! I will always remember my Dad's face when he took me to Woolworths to treat me to an LP. I chose Countrylife ! With the rude cover ! It was £3.99 !

I'm a Roxy Music devotee. From the moment I heard and gasped at the audacity and sheer cleverness of In Every Dream Home A Heartache from For Your Pleasure, I latched on and have never let go. My music vocabulary was greatly expanded by them and the music and ATMOSPHERE their sounds absorbed into my psyche. In other words I LOVED THEM. Superb does not do them justice. When I heard they were going to be FINALLY nominated for the Hall, I marshalled my fellow Roxy friends on a get out the vote campaign to make sure the objects of our intense fandom would be heard and rewarded. The induction last year was a validation of why VOTING counts. I WISH I could have been at the induction ceremony. The choice of two members of Duran Duran to induct them was a no brainer. In my mind another person who could an equally as well induction was Nile Rodgers of Chic. He named his band as a homage to Roxy Music. That homage and Nile's deep musical knowledge and tastes mirror my own. I feel a kinship with him on multiple levels. VIVA Roxy Music!

one of the greatest bands of any era....music died in the second half of the 90s but Roxy are one of those whose music will live on forever...quality knows no time.... even now when you introduce someone to RM they are stunned by the depth and range of their music....not one passenger in this band...everyone a true contributor...not many bands can say that..

Sad how there's no music these days worth listening too or as creative as Roxy Music was..... I had the privilege of seeing them from backstage twice at the Academy of Music in NYC mid to late 70's if my memory serves me..... incredible band live too....

I grew up in a small town in Utah I read an article in circus magazine about Roxy Music this was 1975 I had to order their album stores didn't carry it I believe Roxy Music becomes a way of life

Well deserved, one of the greatest bands ever.

CONGRATULATIONS ROXY MUSIC!! and thank you for your music!!

Roxy Music. Why did it take them SO LONG to get in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Should have been in Decades ago.

Ultra great band. Loved them since 1972!

Man,I love roxy music,never get a band like them again, that's for sure.😙

Long live Roxy Music!

I knew it that someday Roxy Music would enter into the R&RHOF. They well deserve it.

They were one of the best Live bands to ever play at the R&R HOF. Amazing, considering their ages. Bryan Ferry & Roxy Music have their 50 yr tour in 2022! Well deserved induction! 💯

The album Avalon changed my life.

Roxy Roxy Roxy .. thank you for the music guys . ✌️

Love Roxy and Bryan there is nothing like them never will be again. Avalon itself weeps.

Was part of a band back in the day called "In October" that was directly influenced by Roxy. We did quite a few covers of theirs as well.

I had every members solo stuff as well as all Roxy music albums ,I can,t say that about any other group .ty rm

I have been waiting a very long time to see Roxy perform. It is going to happen in Austin September 2022!!!!

Out of the Blue sounded unbelievably amazing at the R&R HOF induction.

Roxy music is one of a.kind of bsnd.thst comes once and while

Well deserved…Congratulations!

The eighties was filled with real artists MJ, Prince, George Michael, Queen Red and so many more..I will add Madonna as she was incredibly successful during the eighties. A well deserved award for Roxy Music but was long overdue......If only music on the radio today, was half has good as what Roxy produced during the seventies and eighties.

Avalon, does it get any classier than the gods and goddesses? Mythologically great! Un sir passed. Oboes!!!!!

For Your Pleasure is their finest moment 👍

Roxy music cd in my car at this very moment .

Best concert I ever saw was Avalon Tou: Breathtaking

Just announced a 50th Anniversary Tour and I have my ticket for DC (my girlfriend who lives in Holland can't make it). Quite possibly last rock concert I'll ever catch. But since it's Roxy, I'll be going out like Ted Williams.

😉great live concert memory for this 1970's teenage kid

Perfect Great Band

maestroooooooooooooooooooo un grandeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hey everyone…Throw on some headphones and listen to Mother of Pearl nice and loud. Damn.❤️

Congrats on 50 years of wonderful music so sad I can’t be there due to health reasons

Roxy Music.. is pop and rock magic.

I never knew much about Roxy Music but I do remember Bryan Ferry.

Bryan in with the in crowd.

There so amazing band and the bryan on his own wow

3:29 REALLY? You couldn't show the real cover for Country Life? REALLY?!?!? That cover is almost as iconic as Dark Side of The Moon or Who's Next!!!

U forgot manifesto

Love Roxy Music Live

Where is Eno and the great Paul Thompson ?

Great Great Brillano el Ferrari BRIAN FERRY number ONE in SPAIN in 70s and 80s...today only bad imitations of all great stars of POP era

They were once record store kids best kept secret ,but we’re glad everyone caught up and got quality records finally

The " Gargantuan Influence Roxy Music have exerted on numerous acts over the years made there Inclusion into this " Select Club " Inevitable!!!! From Adrian Browne 1965

Way too long to induct Roxy Music into the hall, disgusting disrespectful behaviour towards the band!!

Super 💞

Legends !!!!

Phil's a genius guitarist and he was great in Foyle's War too.

Virginia Plain my first single, or was it Honky Tonk Women? I don't know. Great times. Great bands.

Why is that so many American commentators can't just say 'Talking Heads' rather than 'the Talking Heads'?

Andy McKay was HOT...

I love Roxy BUT it's such a slap in the face to have The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ask A band that The Hall of Fame said would never be inducted introduce them.. Everyone knows that Duran Duran should be inducted themselves but because there are people involved in choosing have said they will all have to die before they would ever allow DD IN.. Just makes me sick.. Duran Duran deserves to be there but they will unfortunately never get that honor 😡

I have a love hate feeling for `The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame`, insofar as the bar is just not high enough. Of course Roxy deserve recognition from the highest standards, but lets be honest about this `club`, it also lets very average bands in. Check out the list, especially over recent years where real talent has been short. I also think it cringing when this powerhouse was introduced by the `vacuous` Duran Duran. Roxy Music deserved better. Yes i am a musical snob, i call it...`standards`. Im quite confident most music lovers would agree. Just to be clear when i call myself a music snob, i mean the bar is as high as Van Morrison and as low as Duran Duran. Take from that what you want. VIVA ROXY MUSIC !

Congratulations Roxy ur a favorite of mine only bec Elvis led me to u and I see why When will u honor TCB band ? Rock&R Hall of Flame u forgot Elvis - why u disrespect like that pathetic I see lots of Elvis influence Shameful u didn’t mention the King of Rock in Roll

I see the woke people at the Academy took the two girls off the album cover Country Life what a load of crap

Roxy Music are claimed to be influential but this isn't necessarily a good thing: witness, for example, Duran Duran.

❤🔥🎶 Love Roxy Music , legends . Thank you for all your wonderful music we can always enjoy ! ✨️🙏🎩 @bryanferry

A bit overrated
