That'll Suite Me Just Fine

When I was very young my older sister was buying 45 RPM singles. Well I heard Elvis' King Creole and Chuck Berry's Wee Wee Hours and I was hooked on what I didn't realize as a 6 year old was the Blues. I would almost always be listening to the "B" sides of the singles as I tended to find them more interesting than the "A" sides. When all my friends were catching Beatlemania in the early 60's I was listening to Lighting Hopkins. It was difficult socially until later in my teens when I would meet up with other like minded people. In mid 60's I heard Fresh Cream and Hendrix as well as Alvin Lee and decided to play the guitar and form a band. Each one of my friends decided on an instrument to learn so we could have a band. We all basically learned together in my parent's basement.

Since I still love to play music I now have my project studio where I write and record for my sanity. I go in to it a couple of times a month after dinner and will emerge sometimes an hour later and sometimes the next day.
