Ralph Johnson – Rhythm and Fire

from Break It Down Show Hosted by Pete A Turner

Getting The Gig welcomes a true architect of the soundtrack to our lives. For more than five decades, he's helped keep the groove alive as a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, seven-time Grammy Award winner, percussionist, drummer, vocalist, songwriter, producer, arranger, martial artist, author, devoted husband, proud father, and grandfather. As one of the enduring pillars of the legendary Earth, Wind & Fire, his rhythm has transcended generations, inspired countless artists, and proven that great music isn't just heard—it's felt. Now, with his new memoir, Rhythm & Fire, he's pulling back the curtain on the music, the mission, the brotherhood, and the legacy behind one of the greatest bands to ever grace a stage. The elements have aligned, the groove is locked in, and the story is just getting started. Please welcome the incomparable Ralph Johnson. Getting the GIg is a Break It Down Show series, Created and Hosted by Jon Leon Guerrero. Executive Producer, Pete A Turner and Larry Lemas.
