Thanks to him, we were blessed with rock & roll. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/08/13/MNR81986CB.DTL  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

At the time didn't really think much of it. Looking back, a real professional. A personable guy.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Not only was he an extraordinarily influential man, but I was just two weeks away from the honor of seeing him perform in New York. If you enjoy any kind of music, chances are that you owe something to that man.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Up until a few years ago, Les Paul performed weekly (every Monday night I believe) at the Iridium Jazz Club in NYC. Amazing performances. Les Paul is also credited with the invention of the multi-track....an invention that changed music recording forever.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
