Comments on: Sometimes, it’s the announcements you don’t hear http://averyfineline.com/2008/02/15/sometimes-its-the-announcements-you-dont-hear/ Criticism and commentary on southern gospel music and culture Sat, 22 Nov 2008 22:55:54 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3 By: David Bruce Murray http://averyfineline.com/2008/02/15/sometimes-its-the-announcements-you-dont-hear/#comment-306962 David Bruce Murray Sat, 16 Feb 2008 17:41:05 +0000 http://averyfineline.com/2008/02/15/sometimes-its-the-announcements-you-dont-hear/#comment-306962 The last POG CD included some Country material. POG is known for having a CCM vocal group sound, but that shouldn't preclude them from being nominated in a Country category when they record a Country song. In the case of Paschal, her CD would have been more appropriately categorized as Inspirational...even though I've been guilty of calling it a Southern Gospel CD myself.

However, since loyalties may divided among the fans & producers of ccm, there may be a united front among sg voters. Could be interesting!

Then something went wrong with it all, and it seemed it was the CCM awards. Anyway, i agree with Avery that the sg nominees seem to be the ones that had the best quality of product in 2007. It will be interesting to see if any of them win outside of the sg-only categories. I am particularly interested in how Gerald Wolfe and EHSSQ do in the mixed categories in which they have been nominated. I always looked at the Dove Awards as kind of a gospel Grammy award.
