Guitarist Peter Parcek is what you might call a late bloomer.  At 60 years old, he's just released his first national release.   Hailing from the New England area, his post-high school years were spent abroad, soaking up the British blues of Eric Clapton and Peter Green, and avoiding the Vietnam combat.  Once things calmed down, Parcek returned to the States and took jobs as a school counselor and instrument salesman.  A chance meeting with blues legend Pinetop Perkins resulted in Parcek leading Perkins' band for awhile.  After gaining more confidence, Parcek decided to strike out on his own.  The Mathematics of Love, only his second solo album, showcases his varied style, something he calls "soul guitar."  He gets help from another legend, Al Kooper, on several of the tracks on the album.  Click below for the Peter Parcek interview.
