There was something wonderfully mischievous about Les Paul's playing .... I like how he made tuning up part of the improv .... That man was one of a kind.

I frequented Fat Tuesday's to see The Les Paul Trio 3 times during this period and it was truly great. The basement club ceiling was so low that Gary Mazzaroppi's bass would touch the ceiling if held vertical. Great memories of a legendary musician.

Thank heavens for Les Paul and Mary Ford. Les inspired so many great artists, Jeff Beck heard Mary and he playing on the radio when he was a 6 year old and told his mum "that is what I want to do when I grow up." Chris have you heard the Jeff Beck and Imelda May tribute to Les Paul on what would have been his 95th birthday at the Iridium Jazz Club in New York City? Their rendition of Les and Mary's songs will knock the socks off any Les Paul fan, their music is spectacular.
