The Grammy noms were released today. Among the many suggestions are for Mary J. Blige to begin recognizing and talking to Christina Aguilera and The Red Hot Chili Peppers to re-deploy and release a good album.
Seriously, the Grammy's usually suck but there list of nominations is always quite interesting as are many of the categories. Some are even filled with albums I own which I never seem to remember when watching since those categories are not televised. This year The Boss, Neil Young, Rosanne Cash, Guy Clark, Emmylou Harris and many more were nominated for rock and folk categories. Even David Fricke got a nom for some liner notes he wrote for the Byrds Box. Speaking of box sets, the Rhino girl group box got nominated for best box design. We knew those girls had the best box, didn't we? For a complete list of categories and nominations click here.
One more thing for you hobbit loving freaks who dig on Bob. Cate Blanchett is playing a young Dylan in I'm Not There, a film directed by Todd Haynes. I have no idea what the hell this film is about but for someone who played a queen in LOTR or whatever she played, Ms. Blanchett is sort of pulling off the Dylan thing in my eyes.
