Grammys 2018
Re: Grammys 2018
LOL I tried to be graceful about it, but heck yeah... it got the impression the Academy actually aimed to honor Memphis Minnie by giving Alabama Shakes the award.
I'm a carefree, range ridin', driftin' cowpoke...

Sadly, they missed it...by a mile.
Copying roots, is not the same as having created them.

Re: Grammys 2018
Tonight's the big night. Glen's track "Arkansas Farmboy" from his 2017 album Adios has been nominated for a Grammy in the category "Best American roots performance". Will Glen win a final posthumous Grammy? Fingers crossed for Glen's family and producer/friend Carl Jackson who produced AND wrote this beautiful track.
