David Crosby presents The Be Sharps with their Grammy Award

Outstanding Soul, Spoken Word, or Barbershop Album of the Year is a Grammy Award category. The only known winner is The Be Sharps for their debut album, Meet The Be Sharps.

History[edit]

1987[edit]

The nominees for the 1987 award.

The award was given out during the 29th Grammy Awards in 1987. It was presented by David Crosby.[1]

Following The Be Sharps' win, Homer kept the award, although he tried to give it away. It has since been seen around the Simpson house.[2][3]

Behind the Laughter[edit]

  • Although there is no real Grammy category for Barbershop music, there is a Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album. There were previously several categories specifically for Soul music. Today, soul music is generally considered part of the "Gospel/Contemporary Christian Music" categories.
  • According to Lisa, The Be Sharps beat Dexys Midnight Runners, which would indicate that they were nominated for this award.
