Our Take

LES PAUL – The Very Best Of Les Paul

The legendary Les Paul, inventor of the solid-body electric guitar and pioneer of multitrack recording, is celebrated in this compilation of his greatest hits. From the swinging jazz of "How High the Moon" to the rockabilly vibes of "Lover," Les Paul's virtuosity shines through on every track.

Paul's innovative use of echo and reverb on his guitar playing is on full display here, creating a sound that is both timeless and ahead of its time. Tracks like "Caravan" and "Brazil" showcase his technical mastery, while his collaboration with Mary Ford on hits like "Vaya Con Dios" and "Mockin' Bird Hill" highlight his ability to craft irresistible pop melodies.

Listening to this album is like taking a journey through the history of popular music, with Paul as your guide. His influence on countless guitarists and recording artists is undeniable, and this collection serves as a fitting tribute to his legacy.

So crank up the volume, pour yourself a cocktail, and let the sweet sounds of Les Paul transport you to a bygone era of music-making. This is a must-have for any fan of classic guitar work and vintage pop tunes. Les Paul may be gone, but his music lives on in this stellar compilation.
