The Beatles Being Honored by The Grammy's

The 50th anniversary of the Beatles appearing on Ed Sullivan is coming up on February 9th, and the Grammys are not going to ignore one of the biggest cultural events in our lifetimes. From the RAMP newsletter...

As we approach the 50th anniversary of that most momentous day, The Recording Academy, AEG Ehrlich Ventures and CBS are teaming up to present The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute To The Beatles. The two-hour show will tape on Monday, Jan. 27, 2014, the day after the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, and will be broadcast on CBS on Sunday, Feb. 9, 2014 from 8-10pm ET/PT -- exactly 50 years to the day, date, and time of the original event. "The Beatles are one of music's most iconic groups, who won their first two Grammys, including one for Best New Artist, in 1964 -- the same year they took America by storm," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "As the Grammy Awards are Music's Biggest Night, it's only fitting that we recognize this milestone moment in music history and pay tribute to this larger than life group and their enduring music and legacy." An all-star list of performers and presenters will be announced shortly.

Needless to say, I will be watching.
