Award-winning filmmaker Fran Strine explores the remarkable true story of Ray Parker Jr., the man who wrote and recorded the global smash hit song “Ghostbusters”.
The Ghostbusters phenomenon was so massive that it has since overshadowed the rest of Parker's career, leaving millions of fans completely unaware of his rich musical legacy and contributions to our music history. Who You Gonna Call? pulls back the curtain on Ray’s little-known yet legendary career. If you were an artist in the '70s and '80s looking for a hit song, who were you gonna call? The answer was Ray Parker Jr., and after watching this film, you will know why. Ray shares, in his own words, what it took for him to get from the streets of Detroit to where he is today. Against all odds and experience, the story defies belief.
This film features Clive Davis, David Foster, Lee Ritenour, Boz Scaggs, and Herbie Hancock sharing what it was like to collaborate with Parker. And the late Ivan Reitman, director of Ghostbusters, joins in recounting how he convinced Parker to write the theme song under a 3-day deadline.
