Jerry Wexler: In Memoriam with Videos from Aretha, Ray, and Dusty

Jerry Wexler, who died on Friday, was instrumental in signing or producing some of the greatest artists of our time. Rolling Stone dubs him “The Man Who Invented Rhythm & Blues”. The Guardian recently called him “The Godfather of Soul”. Here at Ear Farm, however, we’d like to remember the music legend with help from a few of his acts.


Aretha Franklin – ” I Say A Little Prayer”


Ray Charles – “Hit The Road Jack”


Dusty Springfield – “Losing You”

A great tribute to a great man. Another unfortunate addition to the Rock and Roll Heaven!
