Wow! Neil Young won his first Grammy for music yesterday! (He won for best packaging of a box-set or something the year before.) I guess he finally reached their high standards. OK, enough with the sarcasm - sorry about that - but it is utterly ridiculous that an artist of Young's caliber (and there would be an argument for his being the greatest recording artist in rock history) would win his first Grammy forty years into his career. And I'm sorry, but not one of the albums nominated this year will be remembered in forty years, let alone listened to. And if you don't believe me, listen to any or all of them, and then listen to After the Gold Rush.
