Autobiographie des Gitarristen Ulli Boegershausen: Ulli Boegershausen begann vor 50 Jahren Gitarre zu spielen. "Love, love me do" von den Beatles hatte 1963 den damals 9-jährigen so begeistert, dass er loszog und sich eine Gitarrenlehrerin suchte.In einer westfälischen Kleinstadt in den 60er Jahren gab es noch niemanden, der sich mit einer E-Gitarre auskannte, es gab keine Noten, keine Videos. Ulli hörte die Musik von Schallplatten ab, gründete seine eigene Band und begann nach vielen Umwegen eine Karriere als Berufsmusiker.
