3. Les was the greatest-my uncle had several of his records when I was
very young, and his music inspired me to learn to play guitar, something I have enjoyed for almost 50 years now...

5. Cool. This thread is useless...
without a Les Paul YouTube video.

Les Paul was awesome but he sure weren't no Chet Atkins. Heh!~

4. Steve Miller is on right now with Les Paul.
And Miller has not aged gracefully, talent-wise.

He was absolute shit when he was at his "peak," and he's far worse now.

7. This isn't the Jeff Beck tribute?
The other night I saw Jeff Beck's tribute to Les Paul on my local PBS station, but Steve Miller wasn't involved. Are there more than one Les Paul tributes on PBS this pledge season?
