Music ran in Linden's family. Played clarinet with the New York American Symphony at the age of fifteen. He also played saxophone in live jazz bands to earn a living when he was a young man. Linden was enlisted in the United States Army from 1952-54...
[Of his early performance]: I started as a kid musician. I was 13 when I started playing at local dances for $2.00 a night. I date my professional career from the time I joined the musicians' union at the age of 15. That was about 30 years ago!
