 RECORD OF THE YEAR
Record of The Year, possibly the most recognized category in the Grammy (TM) competition was the most frustrating.
This year there seemed to be only one record standing glaringly -- mockingly out from the six-hundred thirty-four possible choices listed.
I didn't want to cast a vote for this record, I hadn't liked it from first listening; but, after holding it up to the tests of the various criteria and carefully comparing it to the strongest possible competitors, I, reluctantly, wrote its number down on my nominating ballot.

 classical music - andante - gramophone record of the year finalists announced
Last year the magazine streamlined the structure of the awards, relegating the dozen or so winners to "Best of Category" status and naming six of those titles to receive what are now called Gramophone Record Awards; those six discs then become finalists for Record of the Year.
In early August, Gramophone announced this year's innovation: each of the six candidates for the 2004 Record of the Year prize now has a designated celebrity spokesperson who will promote the merits of his or her chosen disc on British television and radio and in the press.
And one could argue that a change from the glamor- and promotion-filled Oscar-type awards process of previous years to an advertising-driven "election campaign" is hardly a lowering of intellectual level, however much less genteel it may appear.

 COMMENTARY: RECORD OF THE YEAR :: The Memphis Flyer :: the mid-south's news weekly :: News Commentary :: The Daily Fly
In order to achieve ”Record of the Year“ status, the disc or group of songs has to reach a certain level of greatness--a mystery, a mystique, or some other level of otherworldliness.
On unrelated business, I happened upon the artists in the studio in August, 2003, while they were recording the disc, and they imbued an overwhelmingly understated aura both in demeanor and attitude, giving no notice of the fine tunes they had just recorded.
Harlan T. Bobo released the record in the oldest of old school ways: printing up a couple at a time, hoping the record stores would carry them and not throw them in the dollar bin three years later--unsold and consignment period expired.

Baseball in 2005, especially in that huge ballpark in the Bronx and involving the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry, which I have written and spoken about in depth, was many years away from baseball in 1975 and a more than a century away from the “Old Time Baseball” that is the subject of this book.
One of the best relievers in baseball in the years of the “Bronx Zoo,” Gossage twice saved more than 30 games a season and was always good for a wisecrack at someone else’s expense, always good for one kind of headline or another.
That is not the case for the New York Yankees who seem to have a lock on big doings in the first month of the year.
