一年一度 美國樂壇的盛事
第50屆葛萊美獎入圍名單揭曉
最大贏家就是嘻哈歌手Kanye West獲得八項提名，
另外一位我很喜愛的英國女歌手Amy Winehouse也入圍六項
她是我今年少數買的新人專輯之ㄧ
23歲，卻有著渾厚扎實的成熟嗓音
專輯[Back To Black黑色會]的曲風，
融合爵士、藍調、和靈魂樂，想必又會是另一個Norah Jones
此外大熱歌曲
與年度勁歌
都獲得沒有意外的青睞 當然還有去年就發片 今年也持續入圍的賈斯汀
而今年最佳專輯中，較令人意外的入圍者
是素有爵士鋼琴大師的賀比漢考克
自從1999年Diana Krall後已沒有一張爵士專輯能獲得提名
而且它還是非完全的演唱專輯 有許多的純爵士演奏 更加難得
這似乎意味著2007年美國主流樂壇成績 並沒有更勝以往的流行佳作出現
才能讓小眾的爵士演奏專輯擠上入圍名單
像鄉村歌王Vince Gill四張一套的巨型專輯[These Days]也獲得最佳專輯的提名
他才以專輯中的單曲
他的嗓音清越高亢 深情迷人 得過8座最佳男歌手 是該項目的紀錄保持者
葛萊美是以發行日算 所以去年發先發專輯中的單曲得獎
之後發專輯也可以繼續今年參加角逐
所以之前Toni Braxton才能以同一張專輯中的不同單曲 連續3年入圍
今年最佳專輯的入圍名單 音樂的多元性 這點倒是可以只以語言分類的金曲獎 來學習的
