Ronald Muldrow

Ronald Muldrow

Ronald Muldrow (born February 2, 1949 in Chicago and died January 31, 2007 in Los Angeles) was a soul jazz and hard bop jazz guitarist.

Jazz career

As an emerging jazz guitarist in the early 1970s, Muldrow connected with soul-jazz saxophonist Eddie Harris on albums such as "That Is Why You're Overweight" (1969) and "Listen Here" (1982).

A teenage Muldrow heard jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery play "Canadian Sunset" on the radio and was captivated. His first big-time gig was with the Staple Singers, a gospel group. He also taught at various colleges and had published guitar-instruction books.

Music education

Muldrow began forming bands in high school and earned a bachelor's in jazz studies from Roosevelt University in Illinois and a master's in studio and jazz guitar from the USC Thornton School of Music.
