i was listening to lots of queen and ac/dc
and i wanted to start to play, but somehow didnt
and then one day i heard "made in japan" by deep purple
and the highway star solo blew me away..
i think it is really one of the best solos ever written (it was in the 15 place in guitar world's top 100 solos issue)
and than i got my first classic guitar, and i have been playing for 3 years now, since this unforgetable moment
