Side 1 : Track 2 - "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" - Jerry Wexler (An Homage: Paul Wexler)

from Off The Record - On The Charts: A Podcast · host Offtherecordonthecharts

We could not possibly begin this journey without talking about Jerry Wexler. Jerry was significant part of Atlantic Records and our fathers’ lives and careers. Since his passing in 2008 at age 91, Jerry has either been made the hero or vilified in many Hollywood adaptations and biopics related to significant music history. Please join Joe, Adam and Dana as they interview none other than Jerry’s son Paul Wexler who rarely goes on record to discuss his father’s life and legacy. It is a heartfelt trip down memory lane as we dive deeper into who Jerry was, discussing the fathers & Atlantic Records. If Jerry did nothing else but coin the term “Rhythm & Blues” that would have been enough to pave a legacy rooted deep in American culture. We dig deep into the legacy of Jerry Wexler and his significant contributions to music. This is a must listen.
