Cal,
Looks like one of these writers who is always on the forefront, he knows what is best for music business, if voters think different, they are often labeled as old fashioned etc.
If the "perennial nomination" of classic artists like Clapton, Springsteen, James Taylor and others makes voters look old and grey haired compared to those oh-so young, trendy and relevant acts like Coldplay and others, well, then I'd rather be called old and grey haired!
You can always have different opinions about the quality of nominated artists and records, let's say I'm not fully convinced with his opinion!
Kind Regards, Walter

Yes, Walter. Price should win a Grammy just because he's the best country singer, ever. And Willie might be the best writer, ever. Every band I've ever been in has done their material. I wonder if bands will be playing Coldplay (never heard of them until this article) songs 40 years from now, eh?

I never watch the Grammys, but I will this year, since Robt. Randolph is nominated for TWO awards and will be playing on the show. Need I say, this has never happened before in the history of our beloved instrument. |

.....but, is he being nominated because he plays a steel-guitar,or could he just as easily be rccognized as an entertainer if he was playing a harmonica?

Yes, Gene, I think Buddy Emmons would be nominated for an award no matter what instrument he played. Just happens to be steel guitar. |

Congrats to Eugene Levy on his songwritter award. It's evidence of the current state of commercial music.
Eugene is from my town. The local paper was quite proud of him, and featured him on Page One. [This message was edited by Joey Ace on 09 February 2004 at 07:55 AM.] |
