Les Paul - credited with inventing the electric guitar, multi-track recording and other interesting recording techniques - died yesterday.

Sad, but inevitable, that another icon passes on.
 
This morning on the radio they played a few examples of famous rock guitarists playing the guitar he is always associated with. They missed out the one track that typifies that warm humbucking Gibson Les Paul sound imho. Mark Knopfler's intro to "Money for Nothing". YouTube - Money For Nothing- M.Knopfler,Sting,E. Clapton & P. Collins
a rich legacy indeed,
