Rhythm and Blues singer Howard Tate and producer Jerry Ragovoy on this edition of Fresh Air. Tate is making his comeback after nearly thirty years. His hits in the 60's, produced by Ragovoy, included "Get It While You Can", "Stop", "Ain't Nobody Home" and "Look at Granny Run". But bad record deals, the demands of touring, and tragedy in his personal life took their toll on Tate. He developed a drug habit and disappeared from view. Eventually he kicked his drug habit and became a pastor. Back with his producer Ragovoy, the two have collaborated on a new album, Rediscovered. It includes a track written for him by Elvis Costello, a longtime fan. (Broadcast Date: October 27, 2003)
