Hard to imagine how much the music industry owes this man.

RIP, Les Paul's are the best guitars ever made, adn personally my choice for electric playing. Not to mention his ground breaking multi track recording, this man helped shape modern music as we know it. An icon has passed.

Either the guitar or the multi-track recording would be outstanding accomplishments by themselves. To have both to your credit, along with a host of other inventions and the hits from his early career..... Just wow.
I remember watching a documentary a year or so ago and all these "rock god" guitarists were playing alongside him. It was like watching a bunch of three year olds on Christmas morning. Just complete awe.
