Ron Turso
Born:
Drummer Ron Turso was born July 29, 1948 in New York City, into a musical family. His talent emerged at age 6 when he started beating out time with an old pair of wire brushes on a large tin can. By age 9, he had his first set of Ludwig and was studying seriously and gaining experience sitting in with his father Don Turso's band and his brother Turk Mauro, both saxophonists. He spent his teens sneaking into jazz clubs to hear the greats and playing wherever he could. A stint in the army band in the late 1960's landed him a gig with Albert Mangelsdorf's avant guard group at the Berlin Jazz Festival
