Staggering that they aren't in. Slade Alive is still on high rotation in my CD player. One of the great albums of all time. Posted by Max Emery on Friday, 04/8/2016 @ 18:34pm |

They deserve to be in just because their lead singer Noddy Holder had the most powerful voice ever. Probably the best band not currently inducted. Posted by Timothy Horrigan on Tuesday, 07/9/2019 @ 21:20pm |
Saw five slade shows in america one slade two show in the u.k. fantastic catalog from start to finish. Better than t. Rex or sweet imho. The Oasis of the seventies Posted by keith marron on Wednesday, 01/15/2020 @ 12:59pm |
'Legendary live act' is often an over used term. However in this case it applied to every gig this band ever played. Sadly from 1977 to 1980 despite playing hundreds of fantastic gigs, there popularity had waned from being mega stars to being followed by 500 loyal fans by 1980. They ended up playing some gigs with 100 fans their in 'chicken in a basket' clubs. Posted by ross patterson on Thursday, 07/23/2020 @ 17:25pm |
Como no mencionar a Slade en el salón de la fama. No solo influenció a varias bandas ya escritas aquí. Ellos crearon la maqueta en evidencia para el Grunge. Nirvana o Smashing Pumpkins revalearon que fueron sus influencias. En el disco Whatever Happened to Slade. Demuestra su calidad de fuerza en ese género. Y sobre todo quizá es el disco menos conocido de ellos. Todo lo que tocaban era oro en nivel de producción. Hasta el propio John Lennon elogió a Noddy Holder por voz. Jimmy Lea, dándole lustre al Violín, generando ser un precursor al Folk Rock. Juntando el Disco Con el rock. con Nobody's Fool . Slade fué y será el grupo mas incomprendido, que solo los conocedores de la música, "Los desmantelaron para generar su propio estilo" Para muestra un botón. Y la gante, los olvidó o solo los usa como referencia en un par de canciones. O para mostrar que esos tipos se vestían de manera extravagante. Y encasillarlos en el Glam Rock. Siendo que es muy estúpido, Slade es Rock. Ellos son los padres del rock moderno. Aunque muchos no les cueste reconocer. Posted by Lumaco on Wednesday, 10/7/2020 @ 09:37am |
Slade goes without saying, a great rock n roll band. However, sadly did nothing in the USA market or in the Far East. Huge in the UK and Europe though. Single sold in millions but not so with Albums. Lots of people putting them outselling T. Rex. That is simply not true. T rex world album sales outsold Slade by millions. Bolan in his short lifetime selling around 39m worldwide. So, should Slade be inducted? Well for me, no. So the question is, why should they? Posted by Dan Fletcher on Tuesday, 11/24/2020 @ 06:37am |
They should be included because they are the best live rock act of all time, interested in giving fans a great time and not being consumed by their own importance, like some of the so called 'accepted' rock bands. Thin Lizzy supported them in 1973 and were told to up their game by Slade's Manager, Chas Chandler. Blew all other bands away at Lincoln Festival 1972, Reading Festival 1980 and Donnington 1981, including the New wave of British Heavy Metal and the old wave, ACDC, Def Leppard etc. Successful all over the world, except USA, which wasn't ready for them in the 1970s. Try the album 'Whatever Happened to Slade' a 1977 heavy metal album. Posted by ross patterson on Tuesday, 12/15/2020 @ 11:54am |
Slade, The silly side of Glam Rock. Not taking away the fact that they were a brilliant rock n roll band though. Huge in the UK, selling millions of singles there. Did very well in Europe too. I saw them live in 72. EXTREMELY Loud!! Sadly they had no real impact in the USA. They also struggled to write any iconic albums. For me song writing abilities limited too. However, the question is, should Slade be inducted? Well for me, I don't think they did enough to warrant a induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Yes they sold millions of shingles in the UK and some album success too. However it is not enough. Just my opinion. Posted by Dok Denby on Friday, 12/18/2020 @ 04:39am |
Slade not for me! I mean what have they done to warrant a induction into the rock and roll hall of fame? Yep they sold lots of singles in the UK but album sales are poor worldwide. Definitely influenced a few bands though. But all that is about it Posted by Pete Cardell on Saturday, 12/26/2020 @ 08:54am |
I mean come on let's get real here. They were the pathetic silly side of glam rock. Yep sold lots of records in the UK. If I remember rightly though, they had a disastrous tour of the USA and got booed in Australia and played to half filled halls in Japan. All that in 1973/74 then to be honest, it was all over. Not forgetting though that they were a massive band in the UK. However, they never had the song writing ability of the likes of Bowie, Bolan, Elton John, Rod Stewart and Lennon and McCartney. For that reason alone they should not be inducted. Sorry but NO!!!! Posted by Colin Sale on Sunday, 01/17/2021 @ 15:11pm |

Mama, they're all crazy now! I can't believe they're not there yet. Slade just have to get included in the Rock'n'roll hall of fame…or else it's a shame. They were a great rock'n'roll band in both the 70's-80's and wrote a line of brilliant hit songs. Among the hits they wrote One of the best christmas songs ever.

Come on if anyone deserves to be in the rock and roll hall of fame. It's Slade. Posted by Kim on Friday, 04/8/2022 @ 10:31am |
Should Slade be in? A resounding, YES!! All four original members should be in. Will it happen? Probably not. From what I've been reading, they seem to no longer have good blood with each other; sadly if this is true. Most importantly, the so-called Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, is a total farce. Jay-Z? Huh? Rappers are in, but it took T.Rex how long???!! And the so-called qualifications. Now people are voting on the inductees. When this museum first came to light, I thought it was gonna be great. Yea, we(Detroit) didn't get it, but some kind of a museum that would have rock and roll preserved!!! The real roots that started it and going forward. It's all a joke now. I'd rather see Noddy, Jim, Don and Dave get together and get all the bad vibes cleaned and cleared and maybe perform again? Posted by Gregory Andonian on Tuesday, 07/26/2022 @ 07:32am |
Slade.. Sweet.. Smokie Posted by Thomas Lindblom on Wednesday, 07/27/2022 @ 08:11am |
I have seen all the big rock and heavy metal bands through the 70's , to the present day and the original Slade are still the best live band I have ever seen, Posted by Russ shaw on Thursday, 12/1/2022 @ 17:28pm |
Saw Slade in 72 and 74, Brilliant live. Sold lots of singles in the UK. Worldwide album sale not so good. Very simple rock n roll but Brilliant at it. Not quite good enough to be inducted though. Glam rock has been well represented with T.rex and David Bowie so do we need another one. I could be wrong though. Posted by Mick Chandley on Tuesday, 03/14/2023 @ 09:49am |
Some of the groups and individuals that have already been inducted are people who have been influenced or inspired by the group slade they may get grouped in as just glam rock but they were so much more than that how many of your inductees wrote the majority of their own material and many of them have covered slade songs including motley cruel and oasis who both have praised them highly in the past just because a band has not made it big in the states should not be a reason for their lack of inclusion in the hall of fame some of the inductees you have in May well not be even as well known as the lad's of SLADE I hope you rectify this obvious oversight soon as they are more worthy than some you have already inducted Posted by Ben Jones on Sunday, 08/20/2023 @ 03:52am |
They are the embodiment of Rock 'n' Roll: great songs, colourful stage presence and a powerful live band; also hugely influential to other bands, including The Ramones. If Slade aren't going to be inducted, then what's the Hall supposed to represent? Posted by YT on Tuesday, 12/19/2023 @ 03:48am |
Back in '73 met a girl - we both loved Slade and ran off to California rockin' out to it all to live happily ever after... Well that worked for awhile then she ran off with a couple of sailors and life goes on... Comes '83 and Quiet Riot remakes Cum on Feel the Noize and out of the blue I get a phone call from said young lady reminiscing and she wants to get back together... OK - that worked out for about a week and then we realized why it didn't work the first time. Posted by Pete Faust on Wednesday, 02/28/2024 @ 10:05am |
