[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 582195, member: 2189"] Very Sad day and a man who meant a lot to this family of musicians including a young jazz guitarist who plays a [URL="http://gibsonlespauls.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/gibson-les-paul-standard-lg.jpg"][COLOR=red]Les Paul Standard[/COLOR][/URL]. Few years ago when Les hit 90 they did a documentary film called "Chasing Sound, Les Paul at 90" and even if you aren't a musican, it's worth the watch to see what Les has done for music. He also invented multi-track recording and is the father of looping. Even though his famous name was on the headstock of a competitors product, Les and another iconic name in Leo Fender were good friends. Thanks Les and do us one favor, turn up every so often so we can hear when you play Caravan in Heaven! If you want to hear first hand how the effect of multi-track was used, below is a vid of Les and Mary Ford of performing "How High the Moon" and you'll hear that signature sound of the late 40's and 1950's that was used in so many recording and very much in itself became an icon during that period.
