I loved 10 Years After and his guitar playing. Now he's goin' home.

What generation are you, 34_40? (I'm 63 y.o. so I was 20 y.o. when Woodstock happened)

I'm just a babe in the woods at 55! I had a cousin your age, while I was growing up I hung around him constantly, he was a huge influence on all things automotive and musically. He had a convertible Mustang with a tape player in the dash and we listened to Big Brother, The Who, Beatles, Stones, Sly Stone and on and on...... so I grew up listening to music older than I was and it became "my" music.

My cousin played bass (stand up), trombone, trumpet and got me started on drums but later I took up guitar. He passed a few years back from Alzhimers... I miss him terribly..
