Topic: RIP Les Paul
What a loss. He changed the world of music, invented multitrack recording and of course, the Les Paul guitar. Also a great guitarist who continued to gig every week until his death at 94.

Re: RIP Les Paul
I am very , very glad he was here, and very, very sad he is no longer here. What a man! A real man. A gentleman, absolutely! A strong man's man. And a music man... He's went from cracking me up to choking me up. Ouch...
G'bye Lester.
Rock on, And Keep the Faith,

Re: RIP Les Paul
A legend with a story......God Speed........it was a great honor when touring the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to see the display of Les Paul guitars and his story....and a very deep honor to have one of his guitars. Will never be forgotten in the music world, let the heavens part and make room on that stage....my guess is Mary Ford is there and smiling.......

Re: RIP Les Paul
thanks for posting on Facebook Joe. Sad news indeed, but what a legacy and a superb mark he has left on this World, his life and what he archived through his lifetime should be celebrated.
My YouTube channel with plenty of my Joe's videos dating from 2009 inc his first Hammersmith Odeon ones:

Re: RIP Les Paul
He had an amazing and long life.
I just like to think about that....
Re: RIP Les Paul
A very sad day on the passing of an incredible man. It is difficult to describe the influence that LP, his guitars and innovation has had on the last 70 years of music. I am curious what Joe's thoughts are about Les Paul. RIP.

Re: RIP Les Paul
We all have to die and Les had a longer time than most on this planet. Doesn't make it any less sad a day though.
What a legend and what a legacy.
Thank you Les.
Rest in peace.
I shall play my Les Paul today in honour.

RIP Les. We've lost a great musician and innovator but his legacy and name will live on through, arguably, the greatest guitar of them all.
