und begehrtesten Musikern in Los Angeles, und sie arbeiteten mit Bobby Womack, Billy Preston oder The
Supremes zusammen. Quincy Jones wurde auf das Duo aufmerksam und produzierte ihre ersten zwei Alben,
die beide Platin erreichten. 1981 veröffentlichten The Brothers Johnson ihr fünftes Album mit dem Titel
"Winners", inkl. der R&B-Hits "The Real Thing" und "Dancing Free".
