Being from Nashville, music is a big part of our history and legacy. Here is a picture of my great uncle strumming a guitar sometime in 1951 or 1952. I’m not sure of the exact location. Could be Japan, could be Korea, or it could be somewhere where he trained. When I first saw this picture a few months ago, I was happy to see it. I often wonder what kind of music he listened to. This was a few years before Elvis became famous. Maybe he listened to Hank Williams. Maybe he listened to Frank Sinatra. Maybe he was a blues man. Unfortunately, I will never know.
