I Love Playing And Working

My Older Brother Mike Is An Excellent Trumpet Player. By The Time He Was 12, He Was Playing Around Kansas City In Classical Situations. He Was Already An Amazing Talent.

One Very Fundamental Thing Has Not Changed And I Realized That It Will Never Change... Is That I Really Need To Go Home And Practice.

1962 To 1965, Where Suddenly The Guitar Became This Icon Of Youth Culture All Over The World, Thanks Mostly To The Beatles. Add To That, That I Saw A Hard Day's Night 12 Or 13 Times, And That The Guitar Was The One Instrument That My Parents Absolutely Refused To Let In The House. So You Add It Up And See That Irresistible Forces Led Me To The Guitar.

Learning To Play Is Mostly About Learning To Hear, And Learning To Really Listen Deeply To Sound In A Musical Way Is A Lifetime's Worth Of Work.

The First Thing I Learned Was The Theme From Peter Gunn.
