JSngry Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Also what the heck is the difference between song of the year and record of the year? You can make a horrible record of a great song, and vice-versa. Quote
Free For All Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Is Gerald Wilson up for a Grammy this year? Yes, for the record "Legacy". He didn't win, though. Quote

ejp626 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Last night was pretty bad. I only happened to catch Jennifer Hudson and then the Chris Brown/Foo Fighters/Deadmau$ event. Indeed it was so bad, that my wife, who watches pretty much all the awards shows, has decided she is done with the Grammys and will only watch the highlights on Youtube from now on. I guess the various Whitney tributes weren't too bad, but the "tribute" to Don Cornelius was offensive (Chris Brown) and worst of all boring. There was nothing even remotely approaching soul -- or even any danceable music during the Foo Fighters/Deadmau$ section. I'd heard some good things about Deadmau$, but that was just horrible. Quote
Shawn Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 I stopped watching the Grammy awards around 1990, never felt the desire to revisit. Horrid production numbers, talentless pop stars and ill-advised collaborations are not my cup of tea. Quote
Hot Ptah Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 I realize that this is not politically correct to say on this forum, but I enjoyed the Grammys show this year. I thought that there was more musical artistry presented, in the pop genre, than in many past years. There were several genuinely good singers who performed in a straightforward way. It's a pop music show. It is not a jazz show I think that many members of this forum would have enjoyed the duet by Alicia Keys and Bonnie Raitt, their tribute to Etta James. Quote
