Les Paul

The sad news yesterday of the death of Les Paul,inventor of the hard bodied electric guitar.His creation allowed the development of rock music and the many icons this produced.He will be sourly missed by all those in the music industry who benifitted from his inventions and of course not least the millions of music fans across the world who owe him so much.
Rest in Peace Les,and thankyou.

  1. In the minds, hearts and souls of many, Elvis was the King of Rock - in -Roll, however, without Mr. Paul's sterling creation, it never would've happened for him. If Mr. Presely didn't thank Les, didn't express his appreciation for this while on this earth (which he'll have been gone from 32 years tomorrow) let's hope he did so up there Thursday.
