• New Records In The Grammy Hall of Fame

    From Bruce@21:1/5 to All on Sat May 17 21:55:55 2025
    These are the new items inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.

    No. 1 Record — Big Star (Album)
    "Color Him Father" — Linda Martell (Single)
    "Conga" — Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine (Single)
    "How I Got Over" — Clara Ward (Single)
    J.D. Crowe & The New South — J.D. Crowe & The New South (Album)
    "Knock On Wood" — Eddie Floyd (Single)
    "Last Kind Words Blues" — Geeshie Wiley (Single)
    Never Too Much — Luther Vandross (Album)
    Reasonable Doubt — JAY-Z (Album)
    Supernatural — Santana (Album)
    Tea For The Tillerman — Cat Stevens (Album)
    Wrecking Ball — Emmylou Harris (Album)
    Zombie — Fela Kuti & Afrika 70 (Album)

    That country version of "Color Him Father" is not a patch on the ass of
    the Winstons original version. It lacks all the emotion that should be
    there. The Clara Ward is a Savoy record.

    We used to have a guy here who was a huge Big Star fan. Do you remember
    who that was?
    I had never heard of Big Star, they were Alex Chilton's group after the
    Box Tops. Listened on youtube but they didn't do anything for me.

    Yeah, me either. This below is the best thing Chilton ever did after the
    Box Tops:
