Grammy Awards for 1978

By Patrick Mondout

The 21st annual Grammy Awards are perhaps best remembered now for the awarding of the Best New Artist to A Taste of Honey. Not that Boogie Oogie Oogie isn't a great tune, but did these two-hit wonders really deserve the honor over The Cars and Elvis Costello? Eligible but not even nominated for Best New Artist was Prince. Those upset with that award weren't amused by the selection of the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack as album of the year. Artistic merits aside, the best selling album of all time (at the time) at least merits serious consideration and it was up against the Grease soundtrack, a discofied Stones album, and Barry Manilow.

Dolly Parton, who went away empty-handed each of the previous ten shows, decided to skip the ceremony and thus was not present to accept her Best Country Vocal Performance (Female) award. Former President Richard Nixon was up for a Grammy too! Orson Welles beat Nixon (and his foil David Frost) for the Best Spoken Word Recording for an audio book recording of Citizen Kane.
