Steve Miller - 1992-03-07 - San Francisco CA (FM)

Steve Miller was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, though it wasn't all sunshine and roses, to coin a very old phrase.  During his induction speech, Miller urged the Hall to be more inclusive of women and to do more for music education. Then, in a press conference after the ceremony, he complained that the whole induction process was "unpleasant" and said "they need to respect the artists they say they’re honoring, which they don't." Miller was, in part, annoyed that the rest of the Steve Miller Band was not inducted along with him.

In any event, this FM broadcast captures Miller at the 15 annual Bammie Awards, on March 7, 1992, 32 yearsa go today.  As mentioned in our Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir post earlier this month, the Bammies were founded in 1977 by Dennis Erokan, publisher of Bay Area Music magazine. The awards were designed to recognize the best musicians and musical performances by San Francisco area bands.
