As part of the GRAMMY Museum’s Programs at Home series, Moderator Scott Goldman talks with legendary Memphis drummer Howard Grimes about his new autobiography, Timekeeper: My Life In Rhythm, written with acclaimed author Preston Lauterbach. Known as Bulldog, Grimes tells his unvarnished story in this new autobiography, portraying mid-century Memphis music clubs, juke joints, and cafes in North Memphis and around Beale Street, with WDIA always on the airwaves. In a conversational mode, he unveils tales of recording with Rufus Thomas, William Bell, and Carla Thomas at STAX and on all of Al Green’s genre-defining work at Hi Records. He recounts his immortal percussion contributions to Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” and Ann Peebles’ “I Can’t Stand The Rain.”
