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.
yes, Duran Duran were f*cking great!!!!
;-)
They sure as hell don't make music like this anymore. Congrats to Roxy Music - one of the most original and charismatic bands ever.
rap is the new rock....unfortun....oh wait PC incorrect
you're absolutely right 👍👍😊...
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 !
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..
Music died in the early 2010's
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!
Love your comment ! Although he was mentioned in the acceptance speech I believe that bassist John Gustafson should have been officially inducted as well. I personally don't view him as just a session player.To me he was Roxy's definitive bassist.
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....
CONGRATULATIONS ROXY MUSIC!! and thank you for your music!!
Well deserved, one of the greatest bands ever.
YESSS 😊...
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
A Saintly comment from Utah. Roxy is a way of life - street life.
🇬🇧 👍 !
Ultra great band.
Loved them since 1972!
Man,I love roxy music,never get a band like them again, that's for sure.😙
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.
so agreed
@pasqualedavino42 , Is this written in code ?
me too
Long live Roxy Music!
Viva!
Roxy Roxy Roxy .. thank you for the music guys . ✌️
I knew it that someday Roxy Music would enter into the R&RHOF. They well deserve it.
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.
My thoughts exactly, well said.Some of the bands in before them leaves you straching your head.
I agree also, there is something magical about their first 5 albums. So raw and original.
What matteres is how Roxy and Bryan touched hearts - and they went deep inside (IMHO)
MY QUESTION EXACTLY.
How funny my last name is Murphy! 🥰
Love Roxy and Bryan there is nothing like them never will be again. Avalon itself weeps.
I had every members solo stuff as well as all Roxy music albums ,I can,t say that about any other group .ty rm
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.
😉great live concert memory for this 1970's teenage kid
Roxy music cd in my car at this very moment .
Roxy music is one of a.kind of bsnd.thst comes once and while
Out of the Blue sounded unbelievably amazing at the R&R HOF induction.
I have been waiting a very long time to see Roxy perform. It is going to happen in Austin September 2022!!!!
Yes...I am catching them somewhere on their US Tour! Likely Chicago or Dallas...❤️
I’ll be in San Francisco to see them @ Chase Center!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
I’m sure I’ll have chills running through me the entire show!!!
Saw the first show in Toronto, was amazing 🤩
Well deserved…Congratulations!
For Your Pleasure is their finest moment 👍
Best concert I ever saw was Avalon Tou: Breathtaking
Hey everyone…Throw on some headphones and listen to Mother of Pearl nice and loud. Damn.❤️
Yep and song for Europe 🇪🇺 👌
Roxy Music.. is pop and rock magic.
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.
ok, what about the 70th?
@@1MrErling yes, of course the seventies too. I know Roxy were around then. Not many spring to mind for the seventies, .Queen, Abba, T Rex, Bowie
Avalon, does it get any classier than the gods and goddesses? Mythologically great!
Un sir passed. Oboes!!!!!
There so amazing band and the bryan on his own wow
I never knew much about Roxy Music but I do remember Bryan Ferry.
Bryan in with the in crowd.
Perfect Great Band
maestroooooooooooooooooooo un grandeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
LEGENDS!!!!!
Congrats on 50 years of wonderful music so sad I can’t be there due to health reasons
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.
Congratulations! Well Done!
Going to Austin, Texas Septumber.
Love Roxy Music Live
They were once record store kids best kept secret ,but we’re glad everyone caught up and got quality records finally
U forgot manifesto
Where is Eno and the great Paul Thompson ?
I'm sure Eno doesn't reflect highly on those first two albums, considering his many solo and project albums since. It would have been a very short period of his life. But yeah, to Roxy fans, his presence early on was huge. I wish he and Paul had been there at the ceremony.
@Steve Downey , he never produced Bowie, Tony Visconti did.
@Mark Hower the great paul thompson
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
Legends !!!!
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!!!
Can't have a show of pubic hair, however discretely framed, sullying the interweb!, And how about pronouncing Andy McKay's name properly!!!
That cover was one for the ages and as WE know was one to be savored and salivated on multiple levels. It was too "over the top" for the general public that did not get it. WE did, did we not? Wink wink😉
They should have showed the original plus the 387 other censored versions... what a joke. It is an iconic album cover.
No kidding.👎🏾
Pretty sure this was the American cover - it was censored to this almost from the beginning
Lejos son lo mejor del glam rock inglés..
Son originales, innovadores y unicos. Gracias.
The great ones
Virginia Plain my first single, or was it Honky Tonk Women? I don't know. Great times. Great bands.
Unique
Grandi ♥️♥️♥️♥️🎅
Super 💞
Phil's a genius guitarist and he was great in Foyle's War too.
Avalon masterpiece
love it
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Roxy music merece mas, já passou da hora de indicar o jethro tull
Roxy music,nuff said
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Where is Brian Eno ???!!!!!!!????
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
Roxy!
love the drug is in countless video games, i find that hard to believe but hey
Paul Thompson and Brian Eno weren't there? Are they fighting with Ferry to this day?
Firsts Mullets !
haven't been attracted to their music but didn't know they wore such cool threads. no wonder bryan dated models!
Being a Rock Star also helped ..no doubt ?
@@2msvalkyrie529 He would've still done okay without the rock star status. Handsome, well-dressed, arty, articulate men are thin on the ground regardless of the era.
what is the last song, please ?
❤
I was born in 1996 why am I nostalgic?????
Way too long to induct Roxy Music into the hall, disgusting disrespectful behaviour towards the band!!
💙💙💙💙💙🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
It was never the same without Paul Thompson. Never.
The only album he wasn't on was Avalon and that is their best selling album, and a great album as well! Avalon was far better than Flesh and Blood, and Manifesto.
@@vambo13257have you heard the first 5 roxy music albums. With eno , then jobson, they had originality, with punk , glitter, romance, and space rock. After the 5th album, after the break, some of this style of music was missing and I miss it.
@@randyacuna3248 They became more of a Ferry solo project than a band. Manzanera and McKay relegated to cameos. I don't really count F&B or Avalon as real Roxy albums. For the real story you have to back to the first couple and follow the trail. Shame the great PT wasn't a part of this.
@@markbrooks4471 yes , furry became more front and center after the break, the first 5 albums was more the combination of the band. That was Roxy Music.
Paul Thomson now drummer with lindisfarne.
Mr ferry not paul thompson the great paul thompson respect for the best and lst drummer
Hi eno
So does this mean that Thin Lizzy finally gets in ? What do u guys think?🧐
probably not
Would love to see procol harum and Jethro tull get in. Both so well deserved.
Maybe. But they'll have to induct a few dozen more worthless "rap artists" first.
Thin Lizzy isn't in it?! What the hell! Procol Harum and Jethro Tull aren't either!!
Don`t be too upset that this `club` has overlooked Thin Lizzy. They are too busy giving bands like Def Leppard awards because they sold huge and are still hanging around. Hardly a band a serious music lover would even remember. That`s the state of Rock n Roll Hall of Fame`. It`s really nothing to get upset about. It`s not the great deal it`s hyped up to be in this sad 21st century.
At last,Where they belong ;)
Is that Brian Eno right behind Bach... I mean Brian May at 5:44? Why isn't he up on stage with them, if it is?
Because he heard Duran Duran were intruducing them!
@@martinmcdonald4207why is that a problem…?
Name of the opening song?
glambritania
Bryan ferry has turned into prince Charles .
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Rock and Roll HOF is the most janky black tie event
Andy McKay was HOT...
use a few more adjectives, more emphasis.....
Why is that so many American commentators can't just say 'Talking Heads' rather than 'the Talking Heads'?
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 😡
But they’re getting in now!! Finally my friend!!!☺️
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 agree about Elvis. The Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is very political. Todd Rundgren came in "3rd" place in the popular vote for the 2019 Nomination and still did NOT get inducted.
I agree to . Howard Stern I think disclosed that! Years ag0
It’s disgusting ! These anti American people
Elvis represents the dream . He had nothin zip
Nodda
Came out from know were
Memphis ⚡️Flash
And do they realize The list of musicians who have given testimony for picking the guitar up bec of this electric cat
And they should have the ceremonies in Memphis
Clean that hall of fame out too and do it at graceland the new theater is amazing
They ruin everything.
And Brian ferry also has a lot of Zappa sound
I know Ahmed . Sad ripping our past but it’s not going to last
Watch they will too as well see a rude awakening . It’s only natural the energy flows
We saw it with E I did by learning watching footage
My dad was in military same years Germany with him 58-60
I have a suspicion you may be right my little teddy bear.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️look at the jumpsuit
72 ‘ I’m posting 72 - ... going to get it now
I see the woke people at the Academy took the two girls off the album cover Country Life what a load of crap
No, it was censured in the US and some other countries in 1974 when it first came out. What you are seeing is the original cover in the US.
Roxy Music are claimed to be influential but this isn't necessarily a good thing: witness, for example, Duran Duran.
Yeah what about Duran Duran??? Theyre phenomenal once you look beyond the pop star video image! And still around today! fantastic new album last year, touring sold out shows and still have a fan base who know a good thing when they see and hear it! They’re getting inducted in 2022 btw!
A bit overrated
you have no clue
exactly...take a band like Foghat..they were much better live than Roxy..
@@JohnSmith-kz8yo Foghat, you have to be kidding. I have never heard a single musician say that Foghat was innovative or an inspiration
@@vambo13257 But they were a great live band..saw them twice back in the 70's..Roxy made some great records but I wouldn't have walked across the street to see them live...
@@JohnSmith-kz8yo To each his own, I think Foghat was just not that great, as a matter of fact I cannot name one member of the band.
❤🔥🎶 Love Roxy Music , legends .
Thank you for all your wonderful music we can always enjoy ! ✨️🙏🎩
