A Walk Down Memory Lane

It all started in 1972, when my dearly departed Mama and Poh Poh [grandma] gifted me my first guitar. They'd pooled their resources and purchased a fabriqué en Chine "Kapok" acoustic for RM28, which was quite a lot of money in those days. Thank you, Mama and Poh Poh. Then, in 1976, I played an electric guitar for the very first time. This was a '60s Teisco belonging to the late Mr. Kung Swee Hock, my Science teacher. 1981 saw me subbing for our band's regular bass player on a gig, and I've been gigging on both bass and guitar ever since. Here are some pics I've managed to get hold of with lots of help from friends and family. Muchas gracias.
