I was fourteen the first time I plugged in an electric guitar. A friend, who played in his older brothers band, had previously taught me some bar chords and he gave me an opportunity to sit in. As I was crudely banging away on a three chord blues progression, I found myself drooling all over my friends brothers guitar. Up until the brother realized what was happening it was a tremendously satisfying experience! I've been either playing or listening to the blues ever since and it has given me a lifetime of pleasure. So climb aboard, kick back, pop a cold one, (plug in and drool if you want!) and maybe you too can find some comfort in the blues.
