 | | Briggs was ten years old at the time, and he became a huge fan of Bill Haley & His Comets and other early American rock & roll bands. |
 | | It was also an era in which Briggs' own fascination with sounds blossomed, as he became familiar with the music of India and of stringed instruments far removed from the electric guitar; at the time, however, he was only able to indulge in his interests in those new sounds privately. |
 | | For Briggs, high points such as the Monterey Pop Festival were worth the constant touring, the ego battles with Burdon, and the creative treadmill on which he sometimes felt caught. |
