Q: Where did your interest in blue begin?
MIKE: Growing up in the 60s, I was about seven years old when I totally got hooked to The Beatles, in about 1963. That was the first album I ever bought, “Introducing…The Beatles.” And then my neighbor, who also loved The Beatles, we were the same age and he had a great stereo system at the time. So I used to go over there with my “Introducing…The Beatles” and as a couple years went by he had a couple more albums so we would just sit down and pretend we were The Beatles. So growing up I kind of stayed in that type of genre with the rock and roll: The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Doors. That was the era of music I was really brought up in. 65-75 were really huge influences on me for music in general.
