Early days as a musician

I dug this one out yesterday, me in my early days as a musician, strumming my friend's kiddy guitar. I love my Mum's purple polyester pantsuit! I cropped out the Labatt's blue "stubby" beer bottle on the table next to my Dad. At least no one had a cigarette in their hand!

This picture was taken in 1970 or 1971, a year or two before my parents split up and everything went to hell in a handbasket. I'm struck by how happy and content I look.
