12 comments so far (post your own)Saw this band at The Hangout. Played about 1330, very hot then. Toots is a short, stocky/muscular man, still looks to be in great shape at 65 or whatever he is. Played acoustic guitar on about half the songs. Crowd ate it up. Posted by Paul in KY on Thursday, 05/23/2013 @ 08:17am |
It seems that the first record from the Maytals, I'll Never Grow Old, was released in 1964. So Toots and the Maytals should be listed as eligible in 1989 (1990 ceremony). Posted by Florian on Tuesday, 10/29/2013 @ 10:23am |

Without any doubt. Toots should be in. Anyway it is hof selected by a few only with their own tastes and a money maker and American biases Posted by Jon on Thursday, 03/26/2020 @ 05:10am |
Just read that Toots Hibbert passed away. Terrible loss. He should've been in the Hall of Fame a LONG time ago. Posted by Steve Z on Saturday, 09/12/2020 @ 11:17am |
Toots Hibbert has passed out of this world; a victim of COVID-19. Posted by Shrek on Saturday, 09/12/2020 @ 13:32pm |

Next thing you know, they'll nominate Toots & The Maytals before they nominate Kool & The Gang and The Commodores. Posted by Roy on Saturday, 09/12/2020 @ 15:10pm |
Toots & The Maytals have a better chance than War, The Meters, and Rufus. Posted by Roy on Saturday, 09/12/2020 @ 15:15pm |
He was 70 when I saw him & band at The Hangout back in 13. Was hot as f*ck that day on the beach. So glad I got to see them. Rastafari and Allmighty Jah! Posted by Paul in KY on Sunday, 09/13/2020 @ 12:59pm |
The fact that Toots and the Maytals have not been inducted into the RnR Hall of Fame is shameful. Posted by Gil on Saturday, 05/20/2023 @ 18:36pm |
