Shakira (Getty Images)Una Fiesta Grande en Nueva York
The seventh annual Latin Grammy Awards makes its New York debut with mega-stars like Columbian singer Shakira and Mexican band R.D.B. Today, find out who else to watch for at the Awards. Also: During the late '50s and early '60s the Brill Building in midtown Manhattan produced some of the most popular songs of all time, including Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock" and the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost that Lovin' Feelin'." We hear today how that building came to be so influential. Finally: Earlier this year, singer-songwriter Edie Brickell reunited with some of the original members of her late '80s band the New Bohemians. She joins us to share their new album, "Stranger Things."
