Listening to Beatles records while they were coming out, with my older sister...we'd pretend we were them, she was Ringo and I was John. I was obsessed with them (still am). When I was eight I sang Hey Jude into a little cassette player, then I sang harmony along with it, recording on another tape player. I thought I'd invented multitracking. Learned piano, later picked up a guitar and then it was off to the races.
