R.I.P. - Jerry Wexler
Posted: Mon Aug 18, 2008 12:10 pmJerry Wexler, the guy who lead Atlantic Records, has died. He promoted Aretha Franklin, hailed Ray Charles, and coined the term "rhythm and blues."
He's also the guy who invented those contract terms and business practices that have become the industry standard and rips artists off???
