Listening to the Grammys
AMERICANS bought an estimated $14 billion or more of recorded music last year. And music, arguably even more than movies or television, has been the vanguard of the post-World War II American cultural onslaught that has swept through the world. So its odd, in a way, that the annual Grammy Awards show, which was broadcast last week to a domestic audience of over 27 million people, is a kind of musical Land That Time Forgot, a place where, as they used to say at the Holiday Inn, the best surprise is no surprise.

Fight for Grammys
Over the years the Grammy Awards broadcast has performed very well in the ratings for CBS. It has generally held an audience of much more than 20 million during its three decades on television. Last year it was watched by nearly 28 million people. But rarely has the program faced such competition as it will tonight at 9, when it goes up against two of the hottest shows on television, NBCs West Wing and Foxs Temptation Island. Even at 8 it faces a tough competitor, in ABCs Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.. Grammy Awards broadcast faces stiff competition this year (S)

New Material Girl Remember Madonna? The entrepreneur, book subject, actress and singer recently seemed to be slipping out of her dominant position in the pop world; not too many public spats, financial or physical disclosures or new records, books or movies. But if anybody was wondering if the Material Girl still had any drawing power, her three shows this week at Madison Square Garden, boasting a top ticket price of $75, sold out in less than an hour, and thats with only some radio promotion and a Madison Square Garden advertisement in The New York Times. Given that her last record, Erotica, was a commercial disappointment, thats not bad. Even if her celebrity is based more on the creation of a self-image than on musical virtuosity, her reputation as a ferocious live performer clearly precedes her.

Facing the Music At the Grammys; An Executive Dogged by Contretemps
At the Shrine Auditorium, preparations were under way for the 41st Grammy Awards ceremony, to be broadcast Wednesday night on CBS. Drums, banners and giant cinder blocks were carted hurriedly through the theater as employees in headsets dashed in all directions; Aerosmith and Celine Dion labored through long rehearsals with string sections; Bonnie Raitt stopped in for an on-line conference, and Brian Wilson took a tour of the hall. Wandering calmly through the chaos was Michael Greene, casually dressed in a sweatshirt and baseball cap. His unassuming presence hardly conveyed that as chief executive of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, which presents the Grammys, he has become one of the most controversial figures in the music business. His supporters hail him as a musical philanthropist who brought the Grammy Awards up to date; his critics paint him as a self-serving egomaniac raking in money under the guise of charity..

How to Watch the Grammys Like a Pro
SIX years ago, I was suddenly promoted from a guy who made weird faces behind a drum set to an eligible Grammy bachelor. Closing Time, the big hit from my band, Semisonic, was nominated for best rock song. Though it had already faded from the charts, the moment was intoxicating: My family chatted avidly about the show, perhaps envisioning, as I did, a live cutaway shot of me and my two bandmates seated in our fashionable Grammy clothes. Female friends jokingly nominated themselves in the category of Jakes Grammy Date, and I soon realized that they were only half-joking. A gossip columnist in Minneapolis, our hometown, inquired as to whom I was taking to the show. But as I was plotting an impeccable getup and wondering whom to invite, my carriage turned back into a pumpkin. Technically, only Dan Wilson, my bandmate and the writer of the song, had been nominated. The show was sold out, and even if our bassist, John Munson, and I could find tickets, they would cost our record label, MCA Records, several hundred dollars apiece. Our manager eventually pried two loose, but neither of us could bring a date. As for the live cutaway shot, well, the award for best rock song would, I was told, likely be presented during the untelevised afternoon ceremonies..
