Who Prevailed in the Big Four Categories at the 2022 Grammys?

Classical

Carrie Underwood Frosts New Single with Haunting Themes

An easy and insistent album of folk songs from the UK filtered through West Coast denim and fringe. At times the band sounds like an electrified Fairport Convention, and at others they sound like they're covering Sweetheart-era Byrds b-sides. Sweet harmonies, twee vocal urging, and chiming 12-strings underscore this lesser-known gem.

- Zac Johnson

Pharoah Sanders

Journey to the One

1980

Mainstream Jazz

Subdued and patient, Journey to the One is a double album statement that seems to pass by in seconds. Released in 1980, the music here is far removed from the bluster and chaos that often enrobed Sanders' free jazz work in the '60s and early '70s, looking more to soft meditative grooves and themes of personal peace and autonomy.
