Leo Fender (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014

Thursday, June 6, 2013
Every Tuesday and Thursday, former Warner Bros. Records executive and industry insider Stan Cornyn ruminates on the past, present, and future of the music business. Atlantic had settled into a label by three chieftains of Ahmet’s liking. Ahmet Ertegun, Nesuhi Ertegun, and Jerry Wexler. Those three liked that three-way. So much so that they had earlier bought out the shares (10% of the company) from the feisty Miriam Kahan Abramson, following her divorce from Herb Abramson, and her soon re-marriage to publisher Freddy Bienstock. Miriam didn’t fit with the current Atlantic Trio, so they asked

Curtis Mayfield (Article)
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
Inductee: Curtis Mayfield (vocals, guitar; born 6/3/42, died 12/26/99)Curtis Mayfield is among an elite few members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame who have been inducted more than once.
