I passed 40 a few years ago, and have been playing music now for over 30 years (egad, has it been that long?!?). I started on piano and guitar, played some banjo, stuck with guitar, and at 15 discovered the Stratocaster and Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix. That led to many years of gigging around San Diego and Los Angeles as a rock/funk/blues guitarist. The memorable holiday album "A Blopuck Christmas" was released in 1988.
