Guitar Legend Les Paul
New York, NY…August 13, 2009…Les Paul, acclaimed guitar player, entertainer and inventor, passed away today from complications of severe pneumonia at White Plains Hospital in White Plain, New York, surrounded by family and loved ones. He had been receiving the best available treatment through this final battle and in keeping with his persona, he showed incredible strength, tenacity and courage. The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks for the thoughts and prayers from his dear friends and fans. Les Paul was 94.
One of the foremost influences on 20th century sound and responsible for the world’s most famous guitar, the Les Paul model, Les Paul’s prestigious career in music and invention spans from the 1930s to the present. Though he’s indisputably one of America’s most popular, influential, and accomplished electric guitarists, Les Paul is best known as an early innovator in the development of the solid body guitar. His groundbreaking design would become the template for Gibson’s best-selling electric, the Les Paul model, introduced in 1952. Today, countless musical legends still consider Paul’s iconic guitar unmatched in sound and prowess. Among Paul’s most enduring contributions are those in the technological realm, including ingenious developments in multi-track recording, guitar effects, and the mechanics of sound in general.

So I’ve been a bit slow to cautiously dip my toe into the iPhone world. But sometimes being a “later” adopter has its advantages. The obvious advantage is taking advantage of a more matured (less buggy) and a much more affordable and powerful product. There is another advantage, and that is having fresh eyes and seeing a hugely hyped product in a different way, and in that moment a new insight to the future came to mind. The day we as consumers can purchase a song at the moment of hearing it in our own environment of choice, on the radio or at a live concert with as little effort as possible, is the day we will most likely see the next surge in music sales.
One of the most profound musical partnerships is undeniably that between Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson. Together the pair created albums Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad, totaling over 150 million record sales.
Earlier this year before the passing of Jackson, Jones reflected on working with Michael at the South by South West conference.
