The Grammys

Posted on by

So I heard Tom Petty had a great night Sunday. My first Grammys telecast was back in 1987, which began with Paul Simon’s Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes and ended with Janet Jackson’s amazing Grammy debut and Paul winning (correctly) Album Of The Year for Graceland.

In the past, this website has served as a central point of focus on what I, Tony Giordano, was doing in the world of music and elsewhere. This rebuilt website offers the same information, including all my confirmed performance dates past and present, and also new features. In addition to new photos, I also have various videos of my past performances available, music I’ve worked on with various bands, information for all my current and past projects, …..more →
