[Whiplash230]

There maybe alot of legendary guitar players that everyone battles over to see who is the best, but they will never compare on the impact that Les Paul has made with his time on earth.

[EpicCentral]

The Original Rocker :)

[sick1407]

speechless just wonder how he does tht just amazing.

[shugo541]

need tab...

[mrbobbo666]

mary ford was a babe, she's babe-alicious

[stratman900]

you can see where all the greats learned licks from les. way ahead of his time

[seankim228]

I never realized there was a dog in the back ! 1:02

[RugbyDemon6789]

wonderfull swing jazz guitarist , who did not just soulessly shread but had class , and soul - a master indeed

[bam906]

What a gun. He can even play with a piece of string on his finger!

[evhguitarist3]

When Les Paul died and went to heaven, he thanks God for keeping his throne warm.

[jacksondemarre]

Is he playing a Fender Stratocaster?

[tvtalent]

@jacksondemarre I hope you're kidding.......

[jacksondemarre]

@tvtalent I'm not,why?

[StikO94]

@jacksondemarre he playing Gibson Les Paul

[mrezabek1]

Who the hell is/was Kurt Cobain? He is not even worth googlin'.

TheOscar111288 - could you elaborate? Maybe your comment will make some sense.

Are you aware, that Les Paul changed the world for all guitar players? Or are you playing

stupid? Maybe you are!

You Americans make me sick with your polls, lists, who is better etc., not having a clue

about a real accomplishments. Fuck Rolling Stone's list and other similar blvd magazines.

[Zennofobic]

@mrezabek1 are you aware that Les Paul is American? Not that I'm condoning the idiocy of that twat who posted about Cobain, but let's just chill on the "You Americans" shit please

[Zennofobic]

@mrezabek1 hah! I just checked his page and the dude is from MEXICO... talk about not having a clue...

[yellowdaisy81]

@mrezabek1 Here you are on an AMERICAN based web site judging Kurt Cobain and Americans yet you are saying we Americans are making you sick with the lists and polls and etc. Bug off!!! YOU are not worth googling.

[TeoDrumLover]

I was like wtf :P

[BlutoUSN]

At 1:11 his Guitar cried. At 1:26 he made it beg for more...

[TheOscar111288]

I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY KURT COBAIN IS ABOVE HIM IN THE BEST GUITAR PLAYER LIST..... 0_o

[grimmpoxer]

Today's "shredders" soil themselves when they listen to Les Paul.

[randycwyatt]

thats one happy sounding guitar.

[jaassoonn1]

Full Inspiration!!

[R4ng3k1ng163]

dont look imto the camera -.-

[moopadoopolus]

Never realised how much of a damn innovator on the guitar he was, as well as the tech side of things. What a genius!

[TheXXXDB]

the father of the modern electric guitar......EVERY BODY bows too Les Paul....and i do mean EVERYBODY......rest my dear dear friend you will NOT be forgotten....

[fannywiki]

el solo mas chingon del mundoo.!!

[mjrwoody1]

[tiotinto]

[tanukitejon]

[demonwx10]

1:12 ultimate classic shredding :D

[slywinkisme]

Yngwie should see this tutorial )))

[ben122692]

i want some more songs with this kinda song anyone want to help?

[ben122692]

@ben122692 sound not song sorry

[gtrDan1963]

The "original" guitar hero!

Without Les (and Mary as well) there's no music industry as we know it...

The electric guitar industry (particularly Gibson, of course) undergoes many innovations due to his genius, and the fact that he literally invented multi-track recording...there aren't enough words to thank him...

[tradecycles]

is he les paul?

[VeemoAKU]

@tradecycles Indeed he is sir, indeed he is

[tradecycles]

@VeemoAKU Is Mary his wife?

[MrProgtuga]

ridiculous how great this sounds

[show4me1]

My thumb is up and I thank you 4 sharing 8--;

[Murrangurk2]

All that AND HE HAD HIS FINGER TIED UP WITH STRING!!!!

[rocket8842]

holy crap, look at his fingers. Good ol 1950's!

[Diogodeamorim]

Les Paul, Grandfather of Rock n Roll.

[ethicomm]

And then the little dog sticks it's head in it's crotch during the solo!

[TheXXXDB]

truely the very best ever!!!...years ahead of his time.....before Clapton hendrix...page and everybody else...even before Atkins...this guy was the king of the fuckin hill.....

[eworque]

Fuck you thumb suckers!!

[maffoop]

This guy was the best. No doubt.

[ethicomm]

@maffoop Yet Paul never made Rolling Stone's recent list of the world's "best" guitarists. Neither did Chet Atkins or Django Reinhardt for that matter.

[maffoop]

@ethicomm He was #40 on the list. Ridiculous...

[shugo541]

@maffoop i agree however you do realise that he invented multitrack recording... and this is also sped up...  the guitar parts

[SuperDoddsa]

mint, just so good, shred guitar, without a marshall stack!!!

[italiansrock101]

She's so good she can sing her own harmonies. And he's so good that he can actually play this song.

[BootleggerPhil]

I can not believe this copped 39 dislikes at my time of viewing! We owe the father of multi-track recording so, so much for shaping the way we make music today.

[modernwar44]

THE DEVIL'S MUSIC! >:O

[VivaLaPoop]

saw Les at the Iridium about 5 months before his death. he looked old but didn't act a day older than in this. RIP

[jtizz711]

He's so good that his guitar doesn't even need to be plugged in...........

[trainsntile]

@jtizz711 The music you hear is from the original studio recording. It is 'dubbed' as superbly as Les does it! I have a Capital 78 rpm record, and its the same recording. Just wish mine sounded as clear as this!

[XDimawsomeXD]

ommmggg that guitar solo was so good :D

[TheOscar111288]

who's that guy playing the Les Paul??

[Mortary1]

@TheOscar111288 Les paul =D

[vcelt]

@TheOscar111288 fail

[hacarlos]

@TheOscar111288 hahahahahaha



[TheOscar111288]

listerine was an antiseptic????

it wasnt oral wash?

[DarienMusicJunkie]

That fucking guitar solo!!!! Must be one of the best and early fast solos!!!

[vcelt]

thumbs up if you found this song because you like les paul. don't worry, there' no secret message in this comment, there's nothing confusing.

[LucaCava94]

39 people are angry because they don't have ears, and the thumbed down

[vcelt]

one of the most underrated guitarists of all time....

[brabon1]

@vcelt underated? maybe forgotten for a bit, but he was held in high esteem by almost every great guitarist this century

[vcelt]

@brabon1 yeah but common people often forget that he wasn't just a great inventor... You still see people talking about chuck berry and jimi hendrix.... but people don't talk about Les Paul as a guitarist, they talk about him for what he invented.

[brabon1]

@vcelt common people dont count...ill go with the experts and his peers

[vcelt]

@brabon1 common people don't count? common people are the ones who create stars.... if people don't listen to someone's music they're not gonna be successful.... that was probably the most ignorant comment i have ever heard....

[Indieszz]

Listerine is old now !!!

[superconor18]

Press this for best part===> 1:03 <=== its the best part, well i think it is anyway!

[ollebulle2006]

Today its 2 years ago he died, R.I.P Les paul

[Gonzaaaga]

when was this released?

[lifelongitch]

@Gonzaaaga the single was 1951..don't know when that video came out...."The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise"—Les Paul & Mary Ford (1951), #2, Billboard; #3, Cashbox

[jankbass]

Thumbs up if you want to up thumb just for the heck of it.

[AceySucks6606]

That... was... amazing... Music will never be this amazing ever again... Now music sound like robots farting for 5mins.... Les Paul for the WIN!!!! :D

[drZoxxNS]

How can someone dislike this...

[Mdaman13]

Thumbs up if you saw the Chihuahua waking up and sniffing it's own crotch at 1:28

[MerickKun]

wow tat guy is amazing

[MrPorterb]

wow he was tearin it up even before distortion

[hacarlos]

@MrPorterb it's the real tearin it up... it's when you are aware of absolutely every sound one can make from a guitar... it's as if he said "ok so I'll throw within 30 seconds all the techniques every guitarrist in any band will use for the next 50 years and then they can do whatever they want with it (e.g. distortion)" ...

[sdouce86]

Thumbs up if you're a little confused about what to thumbs up.

[cteez910]

hes freaking sweeping!!! in the 50's!

[bobbobato]

@cteez910 Meh. Listen to the first movement of Bach's fifth Brandenburg Concerto (BWV 1050), During the Harpsichord cadenza, towards the end. It's practically the same sound, and yet its from the early 18th century.

[xXULLOXx]

1.04 best solo ever

[Sikkolv]

Les Paul THE BEST guitar

[blizzy63]

To watch Les Paul work his artistry on his guitar here in 1953 is like looking into the future! Les' material was '40s-'50s-era popular music but his guitar and studio work was pure rock 'n' roll! You can see clearly how influential he was to electric guitarists in North America and Europe for years to come.

[27kevohman]

Les Paul was a pioneer...invented the electric guitar, multitrack recording, echo, reverb...on and on...and most people just think its the name of a guitar...

[megakillkiller]

now, i want to play fallout 3

[mcbm1991]

People need to burn that ignorant, sucky Rolling Stone Top 100 list and really discover who the best guitar player ever was.

[Graffitti74]

@mcbm1991 Seriously. Rolling Stone is such a fucking joke that they put Fucking Glee on the cover. Piece of shit magazine

[LeathanL]

@mcbm1991

The Rolling Stone list of the 100 greatest guitarist should be renamed: List of 100 people who made the biggest impression on hippies while holding a guitar. It' got very little to do with actual guitar skills.

[videospace1000]

les paul was the original heavy metal guitarist. just listen to his solo at 1:04.

[dmmc1043]

I had the opportunity to perform with Les Paul in 2008 at the iridium in NYC, unfortunately filming was not allowed, but it was lots of fun!

[ManagFTW66]

les paul is god..thank you les paul

[spahjrp]

Watch this guy's fingers and listen to her speaking words we can actually understand...what a remarkable thought. NO ONE can match LES...PERIOD!

[kuan12345]

Wait, what was he trying to remember?

[breezebro]

@kuan12345 I forgot about that!

[classicrockonly]

It's un-American to not know Les Paul.

[thewikerman]

ahhhh you never find out what he was trying to remember.

[nielsnielsniels1]

He did not invented the electric guitar... Rickenbacker did

[LegoBen]

@nielsnielsniels1 He invented the iconic electric guitar. Shitenfucker didn't.

[peaceloveandrockism]

@LegoBen les invented the solid body guitar but rickenbacker invented the electric.

[George665511]

this song is awesome! :D

[dirtyoldmanxxx]

immortal LES PAUL....

[pikanelas]

thumbs down for these bastards asking for thumbs up

[533mama]

Thumbs up if you like chicken.

[gajumalb]

sound of a good feeling

[GangreneVagina]

The little dog in the background. LOL!

[DrewrBoxs]

Well I love linkin park and porta

[1983Jacko]

Thumbs up if you saw the chihuaua lick his balls in the background while Les Paul was playing.

[soulfly12333]

it's me or there's some sweep picking in 1:20? D:

[Carthsgtr]

@soulfly12333

Yes, the most underrated guitar of all time invented sweep picking.

[GangreneVagina]

@Carthsgtr

Underrated??!?! Les Paul is rated VERY high. What planet are you from? Everyone who knows guitar playing knows Les Paul.

[Carthsgtr]

@GangreneVagina

I completely disagree. How many lists do you see this guy top tenning? Not a single one. Personally, I think that if Les Paul didn't do for Gibson what he did, someone else would have, but in the history of guitar playing, NO one has had the complexity of Les Pauls playing at his peak. Not only that but this guy didn't have someone to latch on to when he learned to play.

[GangreneVagina]

@Carthsgtr

Top 10?! Of course not! Les was good and innovative, but there are WAAAAY more than even just TEN players that DESTROY Les. No disrespect to Les on a Les video page, but come on, man. Get real...

[Carthsgtr]

@GangreneVagina

Name them then mate.

[probe26]

@GangreneVagina WTF? how the hell can anyone beat the man that invented the electric guitar!!!?!?

Thats like saying that Hawkin's is better then Albert Einstein @ E=MC2 without Les Paul there would be NO ELECTRIC GUITAR FUCK FACE.

[GangreneVagina]

@probe26

Hello, retarded moron mother fucker. You're so stupid I don't know where to start. The guy who invented the car doesn't mean he's the fastest driver or best driver. The guy who invented some puzzle or Rubik's cube isn't necessarily the fastest at solving it. I could go on and on, but you're most likely too fucking stupid to even understand. Go suck a dick.

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

@GangreneVagina You have yet to name any guitar player who is or was better. I believe someone asked you to do that.

[GangreneVagina]

@ThazuaBlackarrow

#1 I don't oblige every request I get on here, fool

#2 Les was an innovator, but the best ever? Come ON! I'm not even going to waste my time typing out such a long list of better players. Give me a damn break.

[randycwyatt]

@GangreneVagina really you aren't that good of a troll to try to debate something without solid fact behind it les isn't my favorite player but you don't see me go about killing his fans buzz what seems wonderful to some ears may seem not so good to others so just don't comment.

[paullubliner]

@randycwyatt TROLL RESPONSE: Hendrix was the best, no wait Jeff Beck, hold it no, it was session man Vic Flick no wait..... Andrea Segovia, no John Williams, no.............

[randycwyatt]

@paullubliner there is no best therefore pointless to talk about it

[randycwyatt]

@paullubliner exactly thats a more effective troll style but still theres no true best

[paullubliner]

@randycwyatt TROLLS live under bridges or in their parent's basement. Not the case here. This is a public forum so everyone has to deal with everyone's opinion to the best of their abilities. There actually is a "true" best, it is according to each one's own opinion.

[GangreneVagina]

@randycwyatt

Hello, Troll! Well, we're having a discussion (not with you - so shut it) about OPINION of playing. So your idiotic comment about bringing "fact" to the table is just retarded. Furthermore, I never said Les sucked. I simply said he was not the best guitarist to ever live. That's the discussion. But you lack comprehension skills, so this was lost on you. You should just do us all a favor and die. Thank you, Randy. Good bye.

[thebich2man5421]

Thumbs up if you don't give a shit about how or when you found out about Les Paul

[mzhy]

troll



[batistaker123]

Thumbs up if you thumbed up the guy who said you knew who Les Paul was before the Google guitar thing but you actually didn't.

[pattyfromtoledo]

@batistaker123 omg - - this just made me laugh sooo hard - - thanks for the smile!!

[gdrugg2006]

@batistaker123

I fucking hate you.

[1m2a3t4t5]

@gdrugg2006

haha, i agree

[gaiolinn]

@batistaker123 Thumbs down.

[niuxen]

oh that's ridiculous, if someone got here to get to know this awesome music because of google it's good also! don't be so snobby you underground trolls!

[lickedhand]

@niuxen

please don't use the word "troll" if you don't know what it means.

[niuxen]

@lickedhand i do know what it means and i used it on purpose, Professor, go lecture someone else.

[lickedhand]

@niuxen

You obviously don't know what it means because you made it seem like a troll is somebody that hates on something. But fine, I won't bother you about it.

[digital2500]

Stan Freberg's parody of this is awesome, also.

[ThePhil909]

thx google your awsome i know him now

[my9176604161]

i know him from Google ....... you're the best Les Paul

[sunfloweraquarian]

My father was Les Paul and Mary Fords bass player. Eddie Burke.

[miller7ist]

i came because i knew who Les Paul was before google

[AAugust420]

[Vall001]

Nice Song, impressive the first time

[quiconable]

[imdetamilboy]

[TheRetroZombie]

@imdetamilboy Mainstream tries to hide it.

[imdetamilboy]

@TheRetroZombie too true

[materofpuppet1918]

este señor era la reata mis respetos
