Nube Gris · 02-01-2006, 11:56 PM

over 20 for U2 after the Grammy's

MJDangerous · 02-02-2006, 07:53 AM

What a shit list.

Thanks for info.

So really, U2 is the most successful rock act in the history of the Grammy Awards, unless you consider Stevie Wonder to be in the same category.

And Eric Clapton received the majority of his awards in one year.

What this list also shows is what most of us already know...

That rock and roll has been largely ignored by the recording academy over the years.

MJDangerous · 02-02-2006, 11:55 AM

I have never understand why people give so many importance at the Grammy's. How can we take them seriously when they give as many Grammy's in one year at Norah Jones as at Bob Dylan in 45 years ?

thelaj · 02-02-2006, 12:01 PM

I'd fancy U2 to pass a couple of those before they end their career.

Well the Grammy awards is about music quality, not popularity. Many of the artist above are involved in Classical and other forms of music that are not mainstream.

Have I say this ? All artists in this list are absolutely great, of course. But where is Bob Dylan ? How this one could have earn the same amount of grammy's than Norah Jones ? Where is Bruce Springsteen ? Prince ? Michael Jackson ? David Bowie ? Led Zeppelin ? The Beatles ? Etc...
