Meaning
This can be taken to mean that early musical learning opened the door to making songs feel natural. The blues scale here is less a technical detail than the first tool that turned listening into making, and the quote points to how a child’s lesson can become a creative habit. It lands for anyone who can trace a lasting craft back to one early teacher.
