TRIBUTE

Without Les Paul, there would be no Bill Haley and the Comets, no Chuck Berry and no Beatles. We would have never had Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Ann and Nancy Wilson or Jimmy Page. Carlos Santana, Keith Richards, who are they? No one would have heard of Prince, Joan Jett or Lita Ford. How about Eddie Van Halen, Robin Finck or even Slash?

Les Paul, who invented the electric guitar (in 1941) and multi-track recording, passed away today at the age of 94. He changed the music industry FOREVER and for that I just have give my thanks.

Thanks, Les.
