His death has left a hole in many many hearts. I surely hope there will be tribute made to this great man, now that he is gone. I can just imagine the kind of band that could be assembled simply using guitarists who have used nothing but Les Paul's over their career. Keith Richards said if it wasn't for Les Paul, generations of punks would have been either in jail or cleaning toilets. What more can you say, he helped lots of us by giving us the gift of music.
Les Paul's music was a great inspiration to me in the late 1940s. His speed, precision and multi-layered notes were awesome-- unheard of until then. Learning to play Nola was a challenge. He has been my favorite musician for more than sixty years. How High the Moon, Little Rock Getaway, Whispering, World is Waiting for the Sunrise, Goofus.... RIP Les, you have left a legacy!
i will never forget the day he died i was in surgery when i woke up and get back to my room i put the tv on and then they said les paul is no more i couldn believe it the thing that i dont get is that wacko jacko had such a big funeral and les paul was just a 30 sec report he deserves more than that
thank you for putting up this tribute to Les....i met him back in 2003 and he was so kind and funny....you know alot of people his age were sitting around watching their stories.....and at 94 he was playing at least 2 show a week in NYC.Les you will be greatly missed .....MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT.....R.I.P.
When I was about 14, I was trying to learn How High The Moon, about three days into it, my Mom comes past and said "Sounds pretty good-of course YOU KNOW there's twelve guitars on that record!" She just walked on past while I had the biggest "GODDAMMIT" musical moment ever. Forty years on, I'm still trying to play that song,and some nights I almost can. So, thanks,Mom for telling me about those twelve guitars AND thanks to Les for figuring out how to put
was great.... choice of song fine too.. ignore the negative comments... just goes to show u the maturity of where it's coming from. wonderful tribute!
Thank you. Like it says in the song, 'I know it's not much, but it's the best that I can do. My gift is my song, and this one's for you.' I thought it fit nicely.
Well, I wanted something that would be a tribute song. I was close to using Vaya Con Dios, but it deals with love, not paying tribute to someone. Your Song is a song paying tribute to people, so I thought I would use that.
@DioGirl Thanks. He will be missed.
