Albert King, Jr. told me I'm a badass guitarist and got my number last Friday. And he really is the son of THAT Albert King.

So that made 2022 worth it.

You know that if Willie's guitar was a Gibson they would have made an official copy of it, and people would pay big bucks for a factory-ruined guitar.

I still feel like The Faces are the band most people are thinking of when they're thinking of The Stones over the same period, and I don't mean that as pastiche. 

Such a killer rock and roll band.

That group that never won a Grammy definitely made a connection with more people.  Having 50 years or more to do it helps a lot.  Not winning a Grammy or being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame means nothing.  Being a Grammy winner or Rock and Roll Hall of Fame means nothing.  Award programs are about making money for the promoter in the same way that a battle of the bands is not about the bands.
