The tributes and accolades keep coming in saluting the late Les Paul, who died yesterday at age 94.
Below, a video including some more of the hits of Les with his then wife, the late Mary Ford. Listen to the guitar work, and think about how greats like Jeff Beck, Eddie Van Halen, and James Burton were influenced. And overdubs, both instrumental and vocal, invented by Les, and perfected by acts like QUEEN and 10CC, among others.
And that's Les...the only man to be a member of both the inventor and the rock and roll Halls of Fame.
And an adopted Jersey Guy.
