1 – What is your earliest memory of music in your life?
I think… the earliest memory of music in my life is… on the back seat of my dad’s car, listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival’s Have You Ever Seen The Rain? and Hey, Tonight!
That is so vivid in my memory that I can even feel the smell of the car, you know?
But I also have to mention my dad playing the guitar at home and then teaching me the first song I’ve learned: Theme for Young Lovers, by The Shadows.
