CBS set to Air GRAMMY 'Salute To Prince' concert featuring Foo Fighters, Beck, Gary Clark Jr, and more

Back on January 28th  (seems like 22 years ago, doesn't it?), two days after their awards ceremony, the GRAMMY's hosted a massive Prince tribute concert featuring performances by Beck, Foo Fighters, St. Vincent, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Earth Wind & Fire, Mavis Staples, Alicia Keys, John Legend, Usher, and Juanes - plus former Prince collaborators like Morris Day and the Time, Susanna Hoffs, and Prince’s old band the Revolution
