The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame finally stopped dragging their feet and Fanny is getting the induction they earned decades ago. They ignored these legends for far too long but your pressure forced the board to do the right thing and recognize the truth that David Bowie knew all …

Fanny was the first all-female R&R band to be signed to a multi-album deal by a major US label in 1969. They opened for Chuck Berry, Jethro Tull, Chicago, and many others. They scored two Top 40 hit singles and they were the only all-female band to do this before 1981. David Bowie called them "one of the most important female bands in American rock," and they were rock pioneers in the truest sense. Therefore, Fanny's induction into the R&R Hall of Fame is long overdue. Let's make history by making this happen!

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame continues to ignore the undeniable history of Fanny while they celebrate lesser acts. I am tired of these gatekeepers pretending that these pioneers do not exist and I am demanding they finally acknowledge the truth.

such A rock tragedy that this Fantastic breakthrough band has been so overlooked . I was about 15 ( 65 now) and living in NY when I bought the album Fanny Hill and it was love at first listen , I owned all their albums including on CD first time in A long time . they should have been inducted long long ago . Peace man.
Fanny was the first all woman rock band and they faced prejudice and sexist treatment. Even their band's name, which they didn't choose has sexual connotations which shamed them. They opened the door for all of the female rockers who followed them.
There is at least one female band who are in the RRHoF that was influenced by Fanny. Fanny were respected by contemporary musicians then and are so still. Their fans loved them then and now, and new fans are finding them every day after all these decades. They deserve recognition from RRHoF.
Fanny are one of thee BEST bands I have ever heard in my life. As an ex professional touring bass player, I feel like I have some expertise in the industry and know what is great music and what is not. Fanny NEEDS to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
Fanny song ‘Butter Boy’ from the 5th album ‘Rock and Roll Survivors was in the top 20s in 1975. Fanny had 2 other songs on the Billboard charts. I’ve Had It and Charity Ball. ~Fanny Drummer, Brie Darling
Go Fanny!!!!
Fanny was before the Runaways, the Go-Gos and all the others. They deserve HOF induction

Fanny was before the GoGo's and was by far a better band. The GoGo's wouldn't exist if not for Fanny. So,why isn't Fanny in the HOF?
