The Doors, the Grateful Dead and Joan Baez are among the recording artists who will receive lifetime achievement Grammy Awards next year. Other honorees include Maria Callas, Ornette Coleman, Bob Wills and Booker T. & the MGs, the Recording Academy announced Tuesday. The statuettes will be handed out during a ceremony before the main Grammys are handed out at Staples Center on Feb. 11.
The awards are decided by a vote of the group’s national board of trustees.
Stax Records co-founder Estelle Axton, composer-lyricist Stephen Sondheim and recording engineer Cosimo Matassa will receive Trustees Awards, which recognize outstanding contributions to the industry in a nonperforming category.
