I started playing guitar at the age of 13, inspired both by the music of Jimi Hendrix as well as the music of my father’s first cousin, Charles Mingus. My father had a huge stack of records and a good twenty of them were of Mingus, so I always heard his music in the house.
By the time I decided I wanted to play music, I’d look at his section of the record collection and think that somewhere, coursing inside my veins, was similar blood and similar ability.
There was also a lot of classical music, Sinatra-esque pop and jazz.
But it was the music of Jimi Hendrix that beckoned me to play the guitar.
