  • ... that Stanton Catlin won a Grammy award in 1965 for an essay on Mexican art?

Hi Trillfendi, yep I've seen that and used it to source about half the article - Dumelow (talk) 22:01, 20 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
  •   New when nominated, long enough, Earwig is fine, hook is interesting, QPQ is done. The hook conforms to the sources but I don't really get why an essay on Mexican murals would be in the liner notes of an album of Mexican music? The UT archives page says the album was called Mexico: Its Cultural Life in Music and Art—was it more like a box set or collection or something? AleatoryPonderings (???)

Thanks for the review AleatoryPonderings. Yes, it seems to have been a record released by Columbia in its Legacy Collection that was titled Mexico and subtitled Its Cultural Life in Music and Art, I've looked to clarify this in the article. I think it was more of a book with a record inside it than a traditional album with liner notes, but it did win the Grammy in that category - Dumelow (talk) 09:25, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
Your intuition is correct, Dumelow. School Library Journal says: "This sturdy cloth-bound book with recording inserted in its back cover explodes with vibrant color in telling the arts legacy of Mexico." I just added that. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 17:22, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
