The New York Times asked for help to make a mix tape about autumn. I know the number one song for autumn—heck, it’s probably number 2 and 3 as well, and the best song for wedding receptions, first dates, and anything else you play music for: Moondance by Van Morrison.
Also good are King Harvest by The Band [it even has harvest in the title] and Hazy Shade of Winter by Simon and Garfunkel to cut the sweetness of Moondance. Yes, I was in high school in 1968.
