The oldest recording to be honored this year is Bertha \u201cChippie\u201d Hill\u2019s \u201cTrouble in Mind\u201d from 1926.

Nick Drake <\/a>died at age of 26 due to an overdose of antidepressants. At the other extreme, children\u2019s music great Ella Jenkins<\/a> made it to 100.<\/p>\n

The Grammy Hall of Fame was established by the Recording Academy\u2019s national trustees in 1973. The original idea was to honor recordings that were released before the Grammys were first presented in 1959. It is now open to any recording that is at least 25 years old. (This year, only three of the 14 inducted recordings were released prior to the inception of the Grammy Awards.) The inducted recordings are selected annually by a special member committee, with final ratification by the Recording Academy\u2019s national board of trustees. Counting the 14 new titles, the Grammy Hall of Fame totals 1,179 inducted recordings.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s additions include nine albums and five songs that exhibit \u201cqualitative or historical significance.\u201d The inducted recordings will be honored at the Grammy Museum and Recording Academy\u2019s Grammy Hall of Fame Gala on May 8 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif. Eligible recipients will receive a certificate from the Recording Academy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to recognize these influential recordings as the 2026 Grammy Hall of Fame inductees,\u201d Harvey Mason jr.<\/a>, CEO of the Recording Academy, said in a statement. \u201cEach selection reflects the creativity, craft and cultural impact that recorded music can carry across decades. We\u2019re honored to help preserve these works and celebrate the artists and communities behind them, so their legacies continue to inspire generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Sticka, president\/CEO of the Grammy Museum, added: \u201cThe Grammy Hall of Fame is a vital bridge between music\u2019s past and present\u2014honoring recordings that changed the way we listen, create and connect.\u201d<\/p>\n
