If so, how do you explain recording legends like Milli Vanilli, Zack Braff and Senator Everett Dirksen listed as Grammy winners?
But that's for another time, this week the Champagne Music Makers salute the Grammy's best in this 1974 episode!
Highlights include Ralna and Lawrence sharing a dance....
....Jack Imel doing his version of the Sermon on the Mount
....and the Musical Family pretending they're Bob Havens

A wunnerful episode in my opinion, based on the fact that the songs featured were actually those well deserved of winning the Grammy.
That meant you didn't hear them sing Milli Vanilli's "Girl You Know It's True" although it would have sounded better....and it was actually sung!
Also, maybe this episode should have been called "Forever Plaid" considering an outbreak of plaid on the set......
And our own Clay Hart was nominated for a Grammy back in 1969, for his album "Spring". He would be a well deserving winner, but lost out to another well deserved artist, Johnny Cash.
So until next week, keep a song in your heart and if you haven't won a Grammy, just blame it on the rain.
