In this episode of “When Rock Ruled The Charts” we take a closer look at 2/22/1989, the day that Metallica loses a Grammy for best metal band to Jethro Tull. We will be looking at the singles chart for the BB hot 100. We know metal music comes in many different forms but, I think we can all agree that even though Jethro Tull influenced many Metal Bands, in 1989, Metallica was much more of a Metal band. What were the Grammy’s thinking?
