Two weeks ago hundreds of Recording Academy members joined @GRAMMYAdvocacy on #DistrictAdvocate Day to support the #CASEAct. Today it passed the House! Music makers are making a difference!

@AnitaJPedersenI got a note from you via LinkedIn, but it had nothing in it except a copy of MY note. Try me at [email protected]?
Big congrats to ARTURO O'FARRILL for winning the Latin Jazz GRAMMY -- as expected for a ambitious, adventurous album that you need to hear
GORDON GOODWIN wins the big-band category; and his producer, Greg Fields, makes the relevant comment :
And, no surprise, CHICK COREA wins again -- this time for best jazz instrumental album (a triple-CD recorded round the world)
And for BEST JAZZ VOCAL . . . it's DIANA REEVES, beating out the highly touted Billy Childs album of Laura Nyro songs.
Jazz time at the GRAMMYs -- announced by John Watters (?!?) -- and for best solo, it's CHICK COREA.
The GRAMMY for liner notes goes to: ASHLEY KAHN for his notes to the recent John Coltrane discovery!
AND THE GRAMMY GOES TO: BILLY CHILDS for best arrangement for instrumental and vocal. (I believe it's his first ever,)
Even at a time of terrible losses, this one hits especially hard: RIP Andrew Patner. chicagotribune.com/entertainment/…
I think sometimes about playing the piano again but if this is @jmpilc just playing C, I give up entirely. youtube.com/watch?v=yqIf2b…

The very existence of this notebook is a useful reminder of how hard it was just to find the correct lyrics and chords to even well-known songs back in those distant pre-Internet days. Every serious jazz musician also had to be a kind of archivist.
