Les Paul has passed at 94. He lives on in million garage bands, ten million fingers, and an unnumbered number of closets.

Few musicians contribute as much as he did to the practice of our craft and the art it enables.

Just imagine: he began with a 2 x 4 with strings and a primitive pick-up :shock:

He was also a pioneer in multi track recording. He broke his right arm once and made them put the cast on in a manner where he could strum the guitar.
