Dec 20, 2:23 PM EST Grammys to Honor Doors, Grateful Dead
NEW YORK (AP) -- The Doors, the Grateful Dead and Joan Baez are among the recording artists who will receive lifetime achievement Grammy Awards next year.
Other honorees include Maria Callas, Ornette Coleman, Bob Wills and Booker T. & The MG's, The Recording Academy announced Tuesday. The awards are decided by a vote of the group's national board of trustees.
"This year's group of accomplished honorees are as diverse as they are influential as creators of the most renowned and prominent recordings in the world," Recording Academy President Neil Portnow said in a statement.
"Their contributions exemplify the highest artistic and technical standards that have positively affected the music industry and music fans."
The statuettes will be handed out during a ceremony before the main Grammys are handed out at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Feb. 11. The 49th annual awards will air live on CBS, a division of CBS Corp.
Stax Records co-founder Estelle Axton, Grammy-winning composer/lyricist Stephen Sondheim and recording engineer Cosimo Matassa will receive the Trustees Award, which recognizes outstanding contributions to the industry in a non-performing category.

Any performers announced yet? Shakira, hopefully she uses this opportunity to perform the 4th single from Oral Fixation and not HDL again. \ if shakira performs, she has to do HDL because an artist has to perform their nominated material. if her album is nominated on album category, she may do her new single, but since she's only up for HDL, that's what she'll do. it the grammys rule

for the rekkid ... 8 nom for mary is wayyyy too much. she deserved like . .. 2 of them! To be honest, I don't see anything special about her. There were so many other R&B albums that didn't get nominated this year that were so much better than hers. I think 8 is pretty ridiculous, especially for her.

Yeah, I seem to be in the minority that believes Mary J is criminally overrated.

I think she is too. Not to the point where I think she's crap because she isn't bad at all. I just don't think she's special. I also don't think she'll win many.

How is Mary overrated when she's not even prominent or eminent? Someone like Beyonce is overrated. No offense, but she is. I guess that's your opinion which you're entitled to.
