Les Paul - Happy 98th Birthday!

Les Paul (Lester William Polsfuss) would be 98 years old if he was still alive today. The only problem with that statement is that though his physical presence is now an impossibility (given our current scientific facts), Les is still very much alive and part of our world. His Gibson Guitar namesake is one of the most popular guitars on earth, multitrack recording techniques first pioneered by Les Paul are still being used, moreover, they are taken for granted.

Happy Birthday Les!

"You can't go to the store and buy a good ear and rhythm." -Les Paul
