Nice. I dove headlong into music theory when I was a teen (supposed to be studying for my last year of high school, instead got distracted by teaching myself the language of music). You know, when you're a teenager you can focus like no-one else on one thing? I love that you did that in your 60s. I'm in my late 50s, spent a life playing music, recently finding my voice and style with original music. Like your journey!
I've travelled a lot since my 20s, so I never got past the chord banger stage ... no scales, no lead riffs. Music theory just opened up the universe that was residing in my brain all these years. Singing is tough and hope to perform one day. Sounds like you're a player, just do a little homework on the theory and open up your creativity.
