Description
A Brief Musical History
We offer the following slices of our personal history with music in the chance that it may help you with your own musical path.
'Papa' (Carl Abbott) brings up the rear when it comes to innate musical talent; neither was music a part of his upbringing. While his folks did play in their early days, the 'pace of life' after the kids came shoved music out of the picture. Moreover, he was raised, as most 20th century children, to be independent, and music wasn't necessary for independence and success. With no reason to stay, his 'independent' upbringing lead him to travel and live abroad for the next 15 years.
Early on Carl was inspired to play music by various encounters with fellow travelers who could. His efforts in this came to no avail, despite numerous attempts to learn the banjo, guitar, fiddle and mandolin. Why? Without a doubt, trying too hard and trying to do it alone.
