FGTH

I was born in Liverpool, Merseyside, in the year of "Beatlemania" and first took an interest in music when my dad bought me my first two albums, "The Beatles 66-70" and "Ziggy Stardust". I spent many hours in the front room of my house playing "air guitar" and could not decide whether I wanted to be George Harrison or Mick Ronson, a tough choice for a 10 year old, I think you will agree. At the age of eleven I borrowed a beaten-up guitar from a friends dad and my cousin Mark O’Toole, later of Frankie Goes To Hollywood, taught me my first chords and I was hooked.
