I thought Luther Vandross was dead. No?
Wasn't he on that plane that crashed with Charles Nelson Riley, Abe Vigoda and Paul Lynde?
Incredible.

Dammmmmmit. Why did they have to give that shrieking horror Celin Dion a new microphone? Please, please, go out again. C'mon let Sbenois here some feedback from that mic.
I can't look at those eyes. Yeeeech.

Sbenois LOVES the funk free for all. Just need Andre 3000 out there and Sly and the Family Stone to wrap it up.

I agree with the President of NARAS. It's time for our government to spend time and money on music education.
Tonight's lesson from one of the nominees for Best New Artist of the Year: 50 Cent.

Mr. Cents lyrics from his song: Fat Bitch
OOOOOPs, I can't print those lyrics because the King of All will ban me.

It kind of freaked me out having George Harrison and Warren Zevon in the same category. (Was Luther also in that one? I can't remember.) Does it up your chances of getting a Grammy if you're dead? Or have a stroke? |

The funk set was awesome and Samuel L J was just the right guy to emcee it. Glad to see that George Clinton let Bootsy and Bernie on stage w/him. I wonder how much money he still owes them? He looked and sounded pretty tired. But the bass player from EWF was totally on fire! And throughout the evening, particularly in the funk set, New Jersey was represented big-time.
The Foo Fighters played really well, but I thought that Chick Corea's contribution was, um... pretty crappy. Chick is a musical genius and a beautiful person, but his immaculate, twinkling piano runs detracted from the song, IMHO. Sort of like mixing creme brulee into a bowl of bad-ass chili. |

So funny. We were a little disappointed. I thought it was cool, but more like a big jam, not well rehearsed. There were little cliques of artists together, but it seemed a little egocentric to me, as one would expect with such a large group. It reminded me of Divas Live, where Mariah, Celine, Aretha, Whitney, etc, each try to out-sing the other. Well, a bit hipper than that!

I only saw the part with Ringo and Paul saying howdy doo and then Yoko. It was very touching but I could not help but think that most of the pop and rap category folks had no clue. (not that I was ever a yoko fan, ay carumba, but Lennon rocked, to say the obvious.) |

The sound must have been way messed up even before Celine Dion. The woman before her (Alicia Keys?) who did the first Luther song could not hit a note. She had a beautiful voice but I don't think she could hear it. Too bad.
Foo fighters and Chick Corea? Nice concept but it didn't work in my mind. I would have rather heard them separately. Chick is a jazz god and needed to get some air time of his own.
Sting and the reggae guy, again, what a way to butcher a great song. Let Sting sing by himself...or pair him with Aretha or someone with another great, powerful, voice.
First I thought that Justin Timberlake sounded gracious and then I found out that CBS insisted on the apology in order for him to be on.
Just one man's opinion. |

That Beatles tribute thing that Sting, Pharrell, Dave Matthews, (can't remember the 4th guy) did was horrible.
As far as the rappers, etc., not really having a clue about The Beatles, I guess I agree, even though I wasn't alive when the Beatles were together. I still have a subscription to Rolling Stone (hate the politics, but love the rest) and it's kind of obnoxious how they spend volumes writing about groups that kids today don't care about (but should). |

Entertainment Weekly did an article this week on the relevance of The Beatles today, and there was an interesting sidebar on hip-hoppers who are Beatles fans. Seems a lot of hip hop recording artists have a tremendous admiration of the Beatles' creativity in the studio. |

Story on a "convergence" of rap and the Beatles in The New Yorker:
quote:The d.j. and producer Danger Mouse was born Brian Burton, in White Plains, twenty-six years ago; attended college in the indie-rock hotbed of Athens, Georgia; and then moved to London, where he became part of the underground hip-hop scene. Last year, he teamed up with Jemini, a rapper from Brooklyn, to record the album "Ghetto Pop Life," which was considered one of the most innovative releases of 2003. But, for his follow-up, Burton decided to work with more prominent artists — much more prominent, though also unwitting. Last December, he made an unauthorized remix of "The Black Album," the most recent (and reportedly the final) record by the rap superstar Jay-Z. This is a common hip-hop practice: up-and-coming producers take the vocals from a hot record and reattach them to new backing tracks. Burton’s remix sprang from a simple pun: he decided to lay the vocals from "The Black Album" over a musical bed created entirely with samples from the Beatles' "White Album." The result, as any finger-painting kindergartner might guess, was "The Grey Album."

the EW article was very encouraging to anyone who thinks today's listeners don't appreciate quality. seems that The Beatles are now "alternative" among young listeners. The "cool kids" have discovered the Fab Four. |

I'll tell you, Beyonce Knowles is defineitely burning up the charts. She got at least 5 grammy nominations which is record since our homegirl Lauryn Hill won 5 a few years ago. She has a great voice and she looks great too |

Who is Earl Campbell? She looks like she has a nice pair of legs to me. But then again, I've never found very skinny people attractive. A friend of mine had a saying:" Nobody wants a bone but a dog, and even the dog buries it!" |
