How did Herbie Hancock win Album of the Year? I hadn't even been aware that he released an album this year. Are people younger than 60 not allowed to vote in that category?
UPDATE: Commenter Freddy says he thought Hancock was dead. He's not, but of all the people on the "Ken Burns' Jazz" box set, I'm guessing the only ones still living are Hancock and Dave Brubeck.
