K. K. Downing
Kenneth "K. K." Downing, Jr. (born 27 October 1951) is an English semi-retired Grammy Award winning guitarist, songwriter and founder member of the British heavy metal band Judas Priest.
==Early life and career==
Downing was born in West Bromwich. He was kicked out of his home at 15 and dropped out of school soon afterward.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://kkdowning.net/kkdowning/biography.html )〕In the late 1960s, Downing discovered rock music and the guitar. He is a mostly self-taught guitarist. "He was heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix, after whom he modelled his playing style.".〔 Records by popular artists which have influenced Downing as a musician include, "Are You Experienced", "Axis Bold As Love", "Electric Ladyland" by Jimi Hendrix, "A Hard Road" by John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers and "Fresh Cream" by Cream. Downing played on every Judas Priest album from ''Rocka Rolla'' to ''A Touch of Evil: Live''.
Downing started his first band between the age of 17 and 18 with his second-cousin Brian Badhams on bass guitar (now with The Elkie Brooks Band) and drummer Martin Philips. The trio "mainly jammed a few Cream songs and a few 12-bar blues". Downing played guitar with the band after winning a coin toss with his cousin Brian "in his bedroom to see who would play guitar or bass".〔
Prior to joining Judas Priest, Downing went to catering college and worked as trainee chef at the Lyttelton Arms in Hagley
