18 Sep 11 - 04:27 PM (#3225254) Subject: RE: Duelling 'Les Paul' Guitars From: Stringsinger So cute! They were great. The recording industry owes so much to the pioneers of over dub multitrack recording, L.P. and M.F. Their recordings of "How High The Moon" and "Lover" are among their classics. I wonder how he feels (or felt) about the Les Paul being used for hard rock? |

If you want some really powerful guitar playing try those legendary black musicians Fred McDowell or Mississippi John Hurt or Lonnie Johnson. Alternatively, there's the Gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt or any number of traveller musicians who followed in his wake. My personal favourite is Angelo Debarre. Come to think of it, Victor Jara was pretty nifty as well. |

That is not a term of praise. |
