My college classmate at UCLA was a classical guitar major. His parents got him started on guitar when he was 5 by buying a classical guitar and putting it on display in the living room. They of course told him it was priceless and never to touch it. It turned out that it was an inexpensive student model they got specifically for him.
- ksaj 6y agoThat's brilliant. When I was around 20, my mother was visiting and I was listening to some Deep Purple. She sang along with one of the verses and then looked at me quizzically and said, "Funny... you hated that song when you were a baby." She was floored when I told her it heavily influenced my guitar playing. To this day we wonder if being exposed to it as a baby, liked or otherwise, triggered a subconscious recognition that resulted in me liking, and actually being influenced by the music afterall.
