I hope the Pancho Sanchez/Terence Blanchard "Chano y Dizzy!" doesn't win anything - though it will likely get nominated.
It's terrible, and I DON"T mean Terence...
Good the category was reinstated, that the rage worked! Hopefully there will be enough decent releases to support it.
I wish he market was stronger, so someone Like EP, who is still vibrant and active would have an audience to support new releases.
Sadly, the market is soft for the genre, and the Grammys are ALL about the market (as opposed to the talent).
What are some of your recent favorites in the genre?
