| Herbie Hancock on the Grammys I didn't watch very much of the Grammys, but the piano duel was really a sight to behold. Both pianists were phenominal with their playing, timing, and interpretation. | |

| Best Neil Young Album? Harvest, Unplugged, Live Rust. I recently bought Greendale and I'm just starting to get a feel for the concept. I know others tout it as being his best in many a moon, but for me, the jury's still out! | |
