How High the Moon - Les Paul & Mary Ford

les was a genius in so many ways

Not only is this song revolutionary for its recording techniques and overdubbing, but it also has some of the most interesting chord changes. I can't get enough of it.

Great music from two great artists! I love listening to this as that old purple-label Capitol 78 spins round & round on the '54 Magnavox console Hi-Fi. What a sound!!!!

It's so slick and cool, a trail blazing sound in it's time.

you mutt! you!

This was the first song to use Tape Echo on the guitar, which was invented by Les Paul himself, by joining two tape players together with the same reel of tape on both tape machines. And it definitely started a revolution for the 1950s!

RIP Les Paul 1915-2009

He continue to live with his music, like all musicans died!

It isnt sad he died imo, i mean, most ppl dont live past their late 60s these days but he lived till like 93 or somthin, plus he had a good run, he did what he loved all his life and then died a legend. If you ask me thats a happy ending to a good life.

94 years

Genius and visionary. Rest in Peace, Mister Paul.
