House Legend Recovering
Chicago DJ and producer Paul Johnson was released from the hospital this week after undergoing two rounds of surgery to remove his left leg. Johnson began experiencing severe pain in his lower extremities two weeks ago; he has been confined to a wheelchair for years since being the victim of a stray bullet. As Johnson recovers, his latest single, "Do Do Wap," remains at the top of the pop and dance charts across Europe. Inspired by house pioneers Ron Hardy, Frankie Knuckles, and Farley "Jackmaster" Funk, Johnson began DJing at the age of 14. Two decades later, he's released more the 40 singles and six albums on labels like Cajual/Relief, Peacefrog, Moody, Djax, and his own imprint Dust Traxx, while remixing artists like Joey Beltram, Green Velvet, Armando, and Ron Trent. "Playing With a Rubber Band," "Just Whistle," "Burnin' for Your Yearnin'," and the ubiquitous "Get, Get Down" are among the many Johnson tracks that are house music favorites (listen to one of his sets here ). His doctors have indicated he will be able to return to the recording studio within weeks, and he plans to resume touring as soon as he is able. We look forward to many more Paul Johnson classics.
