Grammy Winners
The Grammy Awards are pop’s Oscars. Rock and hip-hop stars trade their leather jackets and hoodies for formal finery, though country artists often bring their ten-gallon hats. When the tiny gold gramophones that signify a win are handed out each year by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, teary acceptance speeches abound; everyone remembers to thank their managers and, of course, the fans.
It’s a glitzy, corny night, befitting the biggest mainstream prize handed out for an art form whose practitioners often like to pretend they’re too cool or too rebellious for such accolades. In fact, the history of the Grammy Awards runs on a parallel track to the rock era – the first were handed out in 1958, the same year Elvis Presley was drafted into the Army.
Peruse the list of Grammy's winners on the Walk of Fame, and you’ll find a representation of pop as a big tent, where rebels like John Lennon and Miles Davis stand next to America’s sweethearts like Doris Day and Rosemary Clooney, crooner Jack Jones makes conversation with producer and ultimate hip cat Quincy Jones, and Bob Marley and Beverly Sills do the mambo as Israel “Cachao” Lopez plays.

One thought about Grammy Winners
The following remarks are not to pretend that there is not talent among the Grammy Winners. However . . .
To the question "Which star best represents the group?" - "Grammy Winners" category.
To include Doris Day in this category is to make the list complete, with an appropriately talented headliner to lead the pack.
Without Doris Day on the list, the individuals are each lacking within several talent areas - none possess the breadth of talents of one Doris Day.
Doris Day stands alone as a complete entertainer with natural talents in all entertainment venues that surpass all others participants within the industry.
To overlook Doris is to make the list null and void.
If talent is the measure for the group, then Doris Day is the groups premiere representative, as she possesses "all" talents within the entertainment business for which she has achieved instant star status: radio, big bands, film, television, recording/music, dance.
And she ain't bad to listen to and look at either, even without makeup and corsets.
The international public has continually taken to Doris like no other within the entertainment industry, and continues to send her genuinely affectionate mail.
The highest paid stars of all time would beg for such positive affections.
Say the name Doris Day and no one has a bad word for her, except rag sheets who believe they thrive on their own lies, assumptions, and misconceptions.
Doris' multi talented entertainment venues are the avenues to her success, and Doris' success "is" her genuine unwavering international attraction throughout many decades, and multiple decades after she chose to move from her multi talented career into a life of caring for animals.
