What a legend man. Respect to him, he made a huge movement in music history.

[mikecalzone]

So...the electric guitar was invented to increase the dough in the tip jar. Works for me.

Awesome man...love the attitude, the playing, and the discipline.

I think Les means railroad tie. Not railroad track. Am I wrong?

[Robkat3751]

@pkneeno , yes wooden tie.

[smiffy1071]

@pkneeno yes, you are wrong....sorry! I just bougt the documentary "chasing sound" and there is indeed a photograph of a 2 foot length of steel rail, with a pick-up, and a string mounted on it.

[paulhick298]

Does anyone no what song that is? It sounds a bit like mack the knife.

[pkneeno]

gee youd think the guy invented a guitar or something.

[georgereuter]

Les at his best!  When was this done?

[Audioarchivist]

I believe this is sometime circa 1987.

Wow, what a humble guy for all his amazing contributions to modern music. I don't wanna think about what music would've been without him...

Thanks Les, we'll miss you, buddy!

[georgereuter]

I'm surely gonna miss him. He was a great inventor and musician. He had style and class! R. I. P. Les!

[Falstad007]

Absolutely brilliant.
