Pete Fallico Presents: John Turk - The funkiest and bluesiest Hammond B3 organ combo
John Turk has long since been known as the man who plays both organ and trumpet at the same time! His musical skills, however, far exceed this mere visualization. John Francis Turk, a native of Vallejo, California, has been involved with music since his early years, starting with piano at age five and influenced greatly by his parents who passed on a deep love of great music from gospel to jumping jazz. This former member of Sly and the Family Stone's early days, has worked with such giants as Lou Rawls, Ester Phillips, Jimmy McCracklin, Johnny Heartsman, Etta James, B.B. King Taj Mahal, Charlie Musselwhite and many others. A gifted musician with a multitude of talents whether playing B3 organ and trumpet simultaneously or directing the music that rocks the house at Glide Memorial Church in San Francisco. It's apparent that this man loves his music! Turk's ability to play various styles from classic swing, blues to hip-hop and R &B has led him to tour Europe and the US. You must check him out.
