Rep Power: 4235     | Les Paul, 1915 - 2009 Les Paul was a genius, a guitar monster and truly, a legend in his own time. His partner and wife, Mary Ford, had more voices than a choir of angels (and just as sweet), and Les had more magic fingers than a coin-operated motel bed. His contributions to pop music and recording techniques laid a solid and lasting foundation for every rock and pop artist ever since. RIP, Wizard of Waukesha! If you're not familiar with Les Paul's career and his many contributions to American pop music, please check out these items - - obituary & music excerpts ... http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/14/ar...ic/14paul.html - career info, with audio clips ... http://wbal.com/apps/news/templates/...33575&zoneid=2 - 1991 L.A.

Rep Power: 18863 | Re: Les Paul, 1915 - 2009 It's amazing the stature of the people that have passed recently. Les Paul was a giant in history for his invention of the electric guitar. Just try to imagine what we would be listening to if there were no electric instruments? This was the man that started it all. Mr Les Paul and his contribution to music are grossly underrated. Thank you and R.I.P. |
