126: Steve Ferrone (Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Average White Band, Chaka Khan, etc.)

Steve Ferrone grew up in Brighton, UK. Although he studied tap
dancing as a child, he began playing gigs as a drummer by age 12.
He tells Joe about: his absent father; his angry grandfather;
getting in touch with his racial identity; his big break with
Average White Band; working with giants such as Chaka Khan, Eric
Clapton, and Tom Petty; and conquering his addictions, ultimately
righting the course of his life.
