Seymour honored
HE’S SEEN MORE THAN MOST: The great talent scout and music-biz character Seymour Stein received the CBGB Icon Award yesterday in New York, and HITS homie Roy Trakin (who enjoys a good meal as much as his subject) was on hand to interview the Sire Records auteur for Grammy.com. “I've been blessed to be surrounded by so many, many great artists,” said Seymour. “My batting average is better than most, and I'm proud of that.” Among the well-wishers on hand at the Bowery Ballroom were Alan McGee, Edgar Bronfman Jr., Lyor Cohen, Paul Shaffer, Lenny Kaye, Richard Gottehrer, Martin Mills, Danny Fields, Andy Paley, Risa Morley-Medina, Jerry Harrison, Tom Silverman, Matt Pinfield, Daniel Glass, Craig Kallman, Tommy LiPuma, Michael Krumper, Bebe Buell, Daniel Miller, Rachel Felder, Marty Scott, John Tita and Nigel Grainge.
