Did any of you see Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss at the Grammy Awards this week? They were giving, I believe, a pioneer award. Seal and Burt Bacharach announced them before announcing an award. There was a brief shot of them in the audience. They were a little older from the last time I saw them, but looked really nice. Seal and Burt mentioned the greats that recorded for A&M, including Cat Stevens and the Police, among others. Unfortunately, The Carpenters were not mentioned. I was disheartened over this and took it as a lack of respect for them and their contribution to music. Obviously, Burt is a fan of theirs, but the Grammy writer who did the intro, was not. I am sure as far as success goes, the Carpenters are at the top of A&M's list. Too bad...
