===Post-pop=== In the late 1990s, Jackson expanded into classical music; he signed with [[Sony Classical]] in 1997 and released ''[[Symphony No. 1 (album)|Symphony No. 1]]'' in 1999, for which he received a Grammy for [[Best Pop Instrumental Album]] in [[43rd Grammy Awards|2001]].<ref name="Grammy">{{cite web |url={{AllMusic |class=artist |id=p4574/charts-awards/grammy-awards |pure_url=yes}} |title=Allmusic ((( Joe Jackson > Charts & Awards > Grammy Awards )))}}</ref> In 2000, he released a follow-up album, ''Night and Day II''.<ref>{{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20010722075133/http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2000/10/2401.cfm "CD REVIEWS: Lenny Kravitz, Megadeth, Ron Hawkins and more"]}}.
