Wow, what a shock this group is NOT in! Everyone grew up with Steve Miller on the Radio. Saw them live in the eighties and just last summer, they are STILL TOURING! 40 years!
Everyone danced to their greatest hits record. Featuring one of the best songwriter ever in Steve Miller and a fantastic original Guitar virtuoso in Kenny Lee Lewis, the band HAS to get in!

Play on....
The big Ern...

Just don't understand this man not being in the hall. Still out there playing and bringing in thousands to see him. Last three years europe sell outs. Two blues alums becoming # 1. What does he have to do to impress the people who control this?

If Steve Miller's going to be in the HOF it may be sometime within the next 10 years. Or so we hope. The man had several hit singles as well as some great less-popular tunes before 1974. I also really dig his #1 rock hit 'Make the World Turn Around' (which features Kenny G!) and 'Wide River'. I'd like for his work to be remembered for years to come, not just through radio. Thank goodness classic rock radio plays his music. We'll see what happens. At least he's touring. I hope to see him in St. Louis in July of this year.

If run dmc is in the damn hall of fame, steve miller shouldve been there first...

Most of the posters here are enthusiastic for Steve Miller Band for RRHOF. I agree with them. The incredible amount of hits The Joker,Take The Money & Run, Abracadabra, Jet Airliner, etc. stand the test of time.

Love these type of forums. There's probably many music fans who think Steve Miller Band already in RRHOF!!!

2015 could be a good year for Steve Miller induction. Some bands like Hall & Oates & KISS got in after waiting for years. It helps that Steve Miller has a unique sound. Sometimes 3 groups of similar genre are nominated & negate each other. He deserves the RRHOF!!! KING

Steve Miller's first 5 albums are way more soulful than most of the psychedelic stuff of the late 60's. The Joker was the first album he had total control over and he killed it. He wrote and recorded the songs for Fly like an Eagle AND Book of Dreams at the same time. Recorded it all in 18 months. He played every guitar part (except the dobro on Dance,Dance, Dance), Sang every vocal AND every harmony on both records. I listened to Fly Like an Eagle today, and there is absolutely no lead guitar on it! Just funky rhythm guitar, Poppy melodies, a positive message and killer vocals. This guy sings better than the majority of folks in the HOF. He's been literally sticking it to the music business since he was 12 years old! He had a huge influence in the development of stadium sound systems and stadium lighting… Stevie Guitar Miller is a bad mo fo, and I don't think he cares at all if they let him in or not. Keep on Rockin'.

considering some of the trash that got voted in, it is a shame that he is not in the hall already. his early music is very under appreciated.

Posted by walter belonos on Tuesday, 12/16/2014 @ 09:57am

What not in yet? I have there greatest hits! Abracadabra and many 70's great hits. Love that guitar playing!

Posted by Bryan on Monday, 12/29/2014 @ 00:56am

steve should have been in the hall years ago.i don't understand what the heck the voters are thinking. considering some of the duds they voted in,it makes me shake my head.his early albums are fabulous.

Amazing Steve Miller at 71 still having concerts and rocking the house. It's interesting how some artists live in their 60's and 70's and can bring it while many artists die young or are creatively dead after a decade. He's an example of everything RRHOF looks for in an inducted artist. 2016 RRHOF should have a spot for Steve Miller Band at the induction. He not only has earned it but he deserves it. The Joker, Take The Money And Run, Abracadabra, Fly Like An Eagle etc. 2 thumbs up from King and Steve Miller RRHOF. KING

Steve Miller is nominated for the 2016 Songwriters Hall of Fame and the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Posted by Roy on Saturday, 11/7/2015 @ 06:34am

Did anyone from the HoF ever say why they nominated/inducted him solo and not with the band?

Posted by dmg on Thursday, 12/17/2015 @ 09:45am

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame got it right with a Steve Miller nomination and induction. I wrote prophetically in May that 2016 could be Steve Miller's time. Score 1 for King! Listening to Steve Miller's Greatest Hits right now. That would deserve Hall all those hits from 1974-1978. I'm a big fan of Winter Time. Vastly Underrated as is Dance, Dance, Dance. 70's now Miller still touring putting out music. A King salute to Steve Miller and his induction. Thanks Steve for 50 years of music! KING

Posted by KING on Monday, 12/21/2015 @ 22:55pm

I do not agree. He should've been nominated and inducted with the rest of the band, not solo. I hope they rectify this mistake at some point down the road.

Posted by dmg on Monday, 12/21/2015 @ 23:07pm

No Songwriters Hall of Fame for Steve Miller this year!

Has Steve Miller given us some solid entertainment in the past week or what? Love it!

I've always liked him. I don't know how you can dislike his music. He has about 10 AOR staples and they are all good. I've always like Swingtown and the synth solo.

Love Steve Miller saying that his music has made 1 billion dollars for his record company and he believes that's the real number. As I said, great entertainment this week.

Steve Miller wanted Elton John to induct him. Damn you Rock Hall! Elton John could have been in the same room as Chicago, and if Peter Cetera showed up….

Posted by Roy on Sunday, 04/24/2016 @ 20:14pm

With much respect to the Black Keys (even though their last two albums sucked), they really shouldn't have inducted Steve Miller. I see absolutely zero connection between the two besides they are both rock. The lame-o's behind the RRHOF should have let Steve Miller work it out with Elton John or whoever. Now I know the true emotional 'wah, wah' feelings of Dan Auerbach. It's sick (in a bad way). I, like millions, stand with Steve's comments.

Posted by Jason Voigt on Sunday, 04/24/2016 @ 22:25pm

Must suck to be Dan Auerbach...both Jack White & Steve Miller hate your guts, or in case of Mr. Miller, have no earthly idea who you are.

Posted by Paul in KY on Monday, 04/25/2016 @ 08:07am

So if Steve Miller is one of Jann Wenner's favorite artists, then why wouldn't he give one of his favorite artists what he wanted, which was Elton John as his presenter? You think the Black Keys are going to get you a bigger audience than Elton John? I didn't even know Steve Miller and Elton John had a connection, and now Steve Miller is hanging out with Peter Cetera in Idaho.

Posted by Roy on Saturday, 04/30/2016 @ 22:21pm

Because of Steve Miller's rant, the press room at the Rock Hall induction ceremony was closed early to reporters. Only photographers remained. So Chicago and Cheap Trick didn't get to be asked much questions backstage.

It will be interesting the see if all the bitching that Steve Miller did last year will yield any real changes to the process this year. We shall see...
