Title: Les Paul
Post by: mike A on August 13, 2009, 21:46:42 PM

Died today aged 94.
As the inventor of the solid bodied electric guitar and a pioneer of multi track recording and an exceptional guitarist in his own right, he has had more influence on modern music than any one else, ever. He will be sadly missed.

A particular song that always stands out for me is Les Paul and his ex wife Mary Ford singing and playing on 'How high the moon'. A little classic !
