Eta and remember, the best always comes last

It seems like Queen are finally getting their Grammy! Not confirmed by other sources though. Also not on the Grammy website. www.eonline.com/news/905000/queen-tina-turner-more-honored-with-the-recording-academy-s-lifetime-achievement-awardQueen, Tina Turner & More Honored With The Recording Academy's Lifetime Achievement Awardby MEG SWERTLOW | Mon., Jan. 8, 2018 7:47 PM Earlier today, The Recording Academy has announced its Special Merit Awards recipients and this year's Lifetime Achievement Award honorees include Neil Diamond, Emmylou Harris, Louis Jordan, Queen and Tina Turner. "This year's Special Merit Awards recipients are a prestigious group of diverse and influential creators who have crafted or contributed to some of the most distinctive recordings in music history," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of the Recording Academy, in a press release. Portnow continued, "These exceptionally inspiring figures are being honored as legendary performers, creative architects, and technical visionaries. Their outstanding accomplishments and passion for their craft have created a timeless legacy" The Lifetime Achievement Award celebrates legendary performers who "have made outstanding contributions of artistic significance to the field of recording." Here's the complete list of Lifetime Achievement honorees... Queen: The British band that has been together over 40 years. Their chart-topping singles place Queen in the Top 10 of all-time iTunes sales. The band has received multiple Ivor Novello Awards, an MTV Global Icon Award, and two recordings enshrined in the Grammy Hall Of Fame. Recently, Queen became the first artist ever to sell more than 6 million copies of an album in the U.K. with their Greatest Hits album. The band tragically lost their talented frontman Freddie Mercury in 1991, but still remain one of the most beloved bands in rock and pop history. Today the group consists of John Deacon, Brian May and Roger Taylor, but are joined in concert by Adam Lambert. A special award presentation ceremony and concert celebrating the honorees will be held in summer 2018.
Additional details regarding the ceremony will be announced in the coming weeks.
