1993 Retrospective: Concert with Arthur Alexander.
In May of this year, we broadcast a live concert with singer-songwriter Arthur Alexander, whose songs were recorded on early records by The Beatles ("Anna") and The Rolling Stones ("You Better Move On"). Alexander had spent the past fifteen years driving a bus for a community center in Cleveland, but this year he returned to performing and released a new album, "Lonely Just Like Me" (Elektra Nonesuch), his first release in twenty years. This summer, just as he was starting a new tour and a new chapter of his life, Alexander suffered a heart attack and died in Nashville. (Concert Rebroadcast from 5/7/93). With: Guitarist Ben Vaughn. Also, a thoughts on Arthur Alexander from Ben Vaughn.
