Grammy nominees
Hope this link from the Times of Acadiana works. Lots of music came out this past year, looking at the long list of Grammy nominees.
Of course, they never seem to nominate any of the historic stuff. It's a young man's game as far as Grammy goes, but not in the business of worldwide sales. I bet in Europe they scoop up the old stuff quicker than the new, when they can. The copyright laws in Europe are allowing some of our old music to go into the public domain there and be released maybe 50 years before it ever will be here. That is not necessarily a negative reflection on the current music scene, just a matter of economics and crazy monopoly here in the U.S.
