For those who missed it

 

Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package

 

Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction (Locked N' Loaded)
The Decemberists - I’ll Be Your Girl
Grateful Dead - Pacific Northwest '73-74': The Complete Recordings
“Weird” Al Yankovic - Squeeze Box: The Complete Works of “Weird Al” Yankovic
Sarah Dodds and Shauna Dodds - Too Many Bad Habits

It would be so cool if they win!

But would anyone show up to receive the grammy?

Lemieux would.

The packaging alone is worth a Grammy.... and that 46+ minute Playin in the Band

Those one drummer years were a lot free-er in where the guitars could go. Love the Rhythm  Devils, but Kreutzmann is the shit

I'm glad Jethro Tull wasn't nominated....

 and that 46+ minute Playin in the Band

used to have this on cassette, would love to hear it again but itunes doesn't sell it without buying the whole set, even the "hits" set

thanks, i'll give a listen, also going to ask some people if they can get me a cdr copy yo listen on the sreteo vs the mac

"and that 46+ minute Playin in the Band"

Loved that it took up an entire side of a cassette,  literally three seconds or so of tape left at the end. And writing just one song title on the sleeve.

Listened to it recently and was amazed at how cohesive it is, no noodling or wasted space.

That Guns n Roses box set looks pretty cool. $750. ouch.

The GD winning for best wrapping.....    

 

if not for that, at least it should win for presenting the complete live Money, Money performance history

lol Jonas

Best Wrap Album

Money,  Money was the GD's freshest wrap.  

 

I can’t believe “Squeeze Box: The Complete Works Of "Weird Al" Yankovic” won this over PNW box set.  

no

Booooooo....

Pretty much sums up the music business.

why? 

it's weird al's complete works.

 

Grammy's can just "eat it".

Grammy's 2019 in memoriam included John Perry Barlow.

"Why?"

Because pop culture values Weird Al much more than the Grateful Dead.

well the grateful dead haven't played in almost 25 yrs.

they have tons of live box sets...just because this has a good playing in the band doesn't mean it should win...

 

Packaging and design wise, pretty sure this blows away that GD box set.

There are some hardcore Weird Al fans out there, I worked a show and they went bananas.  All dressed up fanboys and girls.

I think the Native Bentwood Box concept is way more creative than that cheesy accordion.

hippies love them some cultural appropriation.

Al is a proven winner. 

The dead are losers.
