Grammy Award For Best Country Album: Auszeichnung für das beste Country-Musik Album

Der Preis geht an Künstler für Alben aus dem Bereich der Country-Musik.

Geschichte und Hintergrund

Die seit 1959 verliehenen Grammy Awards werden jährlich in zahlreichen Kategorien von der Recording Academy in den Vereinigten Staaten vergeben, um künstlerische Leistung, technische Kompetenz und hervorragende Gesamtleistung ohne Rücksicht auf die Album-Verkäufe oder Chart-Position zu würdigen. Eine dieser Kategorien ist der Grammy Award for Best Country Album.

Der Preis wurde erstmals 1965 unter dem Namen Grammy Award for Best Country & Western Album an Roger Miller für das Album Dang Me/Chug-A-Lug verliehen. Nach einer weiteren Verleihung im Jahr 1966 wurde die Kategorie fast dreißig Jahre nicht mehr vergeben. 1995 wurde die Kategorie wiederbelebt und erhielt ihre derzeitige Bezeichnung Grammy Award for Best Country Album.

Die kanadische Sängerin Shania Twain ist bislang die einzige Gewinnerin in dieser Kategorie, die nicht aus den Vereinigten Staaten kommt.
