First things first

FIRST THINGS FIRST

A massive Thanks to all Musicians you have put the sugar on the cake of my life.

Music started to became one of the leading influences in my live staring in the 1960ths.

Growing up in the 1950 in Munich, Germany the music i was exposed to was dominated by local traditions and Deutscher Schlager, the radio and latter a bit of TV.

60ths Acoustic awakening. The Beatles, The Stones, Zappa, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Black Sabbath ... the list of Bands has not ended and hopefully will not ever end.
