Role model for humanity. Words of wisdom. True professional. Of course it helps he's one of the lucky ones who knew what he wanted out of life at an early age and is living his dream. Right on.
This man is pure CLASS! He doesn't just talk the talk, Pete lives it. One of the greatest talents of our time. As a drummer as a lead vocalist. Pure performer with focus on performing for US. Music and any entertainment act would benefit by listening to this great artist.
I was never able to hear Rare Earth live but did get to see Pete with a group named the "Classic Rock All-Stars" in about 1997. "Get Ready" was one of my earliest album purchases.
Really nice interview,Bought Rare Earth album in the day.Always pretended I was him as who wouldn t want to play drums and sing lead in a band.He had a great voice and energy that made you smile.He was Rare Earth and he left a positive enduring sound for all of us.Glad he can look back and appreciate and reminisce the past.

@@paul12454 Thank you Paul, when I first heard I just want to Celebrate on the radio I went WOW, and have been doing so ever since...Love this band beyound words..
Great interview!!!! A real class act. So true, whether you're playing for 20,000 or 20..."sometimes the smallest crowds have the biggest hearts"......yea.
Peter is still playing in the Northwest....he has had some heart issues, but keeps on rocking. His son lives here in Fargo, ND and is a friend of mine. RE played at a local saloon back in the early 80's....Such a great musician.
2:17 - 3:05 "I Just Want to Celebrate" is my Birthday song which i sing n' play with my electric bass guitar every year until the rest of my existing life on this Mother (Rare) EARTH!
Thank's a lot Peter!!!! You and your band are ones who did my life! Love you a lot! Good health for all of you! And I drink some vodka for your health!!! And very good interview! Still lisening your great musik!
Pete is a class act, I wish his age and health allowed him to still travel with Rare Earth, I think Gil is the only original member still with the band.
Wow! Peter singing those lines just made me shiver! Rare Earth was the very first concert that I ever saw. It was in NYC in 1974! Great experience.
“I Just Want To Celebrate” is my favorite song of all time - an anthem for my life. I’m so grateful for Pete and Rare Earth!
Excellent interview. What a humble legend. Besides the great voice his drumming ability is equal. The dude just has music flowing through his soul.
Peter is so genuine and honest. One of my drumming heros! And his singing was/is so powerful and so full of soul!
Detroit music... jazz.. funk.. soul... man yeah

Great interview. I am awed by the humble attitude displayed by Peter.
A true gem..
Celebrate every day
Peter Rivera is the greatest !
