Real musicians don't need "awards."

Some interesting news on Carol Kaye turning down the invite for the next R&R HOF awards.

Good on Carol for keeping her integrity as a musician.

R&R HOF is a goofy production for "entertainers" especially the last few decades.

It is mostly original material and showcases Taylor's voice and writing skills very handsomely, and the studio production is very good. When my sound system finally matured it was enjoyable to hear every little inflection and detail in the performance. Whenever there has been some change or tweak in my system "October Road" is one of a few albums routinely brought to bear to see what is what..
