Saw these guys back in the 70's and they were GREAT. Can't believe that they are not even on the list. NWA et al.....? Really? That ain't RR and these guys blow them away, along with many that are already in the HOF. Posted by Robert Briggs on Tuesday, 11/22/2016 @ 21:31pm |
Rest in Peace Gil Bridges, saxophone, flute and vocals, and last surviving original member of Rare Earth, 1941-2021. Posted by |
This is a no brainer. Rare Earth was a rare band with so much soul without a black member. Gil Bridges has a voice second to none. He also was a great saxophone player. S must soon in the Hall. Posted by |
Peter Rivera was Rare Earth without him they'd never had a hit. He is an Awesome drummer and a most Powerful Great Voice, Peter Rivera is why Rare Earth should & Must Be in The Rock N Roll Hall of Fame ❗️ Posted by Jerry Stephens on Saturday, 01/27/2024 @ 05:58am |
I do not understand why this band has not been inducted into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame when so many others with with lesser repertoires and influence have been . It is a crime. There should be different categories/classifications of musical styles and even perhaps the institution should be just called Music Hall of Fame.

Once again the Rock doesn't get it right. Rare Earth was a rare group who were white putting out great and memorial musicu usually research of black soul artists. Get Ready alone should get them in. A travesty. Posted by |
