AUTUMN EQUINOX & REMEMBERING ARETHA FRANKLIN

As temperatures begin to dip and the leaves turn color, we celebrate the Autumnal Equinox with a soundtrack for the changing season. We hope for crisp air in Fall with Nina Simone's plea, "Chilly Winds Don't Blow," and Sarah Vaughan's take on Kurt Weill's "September Song." For the harvest, we spin Johnny Cash's "Pickin' Time." And with shorter days and longer nights, it's Ahmad Jamal playing "Old Devil Moon" and Van Morrison with "Moondance." Plus, we pay tribute to the late Aretha Franklin, whose spirit prevails for all seasons, with memories from her Atlantic Records producer Jerry Wexler, studio musicians from Muscle Shoals, and her father, Reverend C.L. Franklin.

Voices include: Atlantic Records producer Jerry Wexler; saxophonist and bandleader, David "Fathead" Newman; singer and Raelette Mable John; Ray's chauffeur and assistant of more than forty years Vernon Troupe; his ex-wife and confidante Della Bea Robinson; and producer-engineer Terry Howard.
