The other day I got a rather pleasing email from Nick Gold or World Circuit Records, telling me that the latest Oumou Sangare "Seya" has been nominated for a Grammy Award under the field of "Best Contemporary World Music Album". I was fortunately to have Mixed the album along with Jerry Boys as well as some arrangements, Dubs and recording for the album. So I can now call myself a Grammy Nominated engineer. Unfortunately you can't eat Grammys or use them to pay the bills (The Grammy always own the actual trophy) and you especially can't eat Grammy nominations, like I couldn't eat the Mercury nomination (didn't stop me trying), but it's nice to know someone notices your work.
You can read more about the Nomination and the album on the Nonesuch website here. Buy it. It's a great album.
