George tried studying music at San Diego State College for a year, but he wanted to get out there and play, not talk about it.
He spent few years on the road with performers like Sonny & Cher, and Seals & Crofts, but after awhile that cured him of the traveling bug.
He met Jo Ellen on a recording session and they were married soon after.
Just like his wife, Jo Ellen, he was about three years old when his family moved to California.
When George was five years old his dad sat him up on the piano bench and started his piano lessons. That lasted for awhile, but when he was seven George asked his mom if he could have an electric guitar.
