Les Paul will never die. He lives in our hearts and minds.

And that's where he's always lived.

Re: Les Paul will never die. He lives in our hearts and minds.

My wife just said one of her co-workers mentioned it.

I'm finding nothing in the news yet. Still looking. If so, this is a sad day.

Update: 1010wins.com/ has a bulletin on their home page. No story yet.

Damn it.

Re: Les Paul dies at age 94

I grew up in Waukesha, Wisconsin where Les Paul originally hailed. The funny thing is that as a kid you really just don't think of how important Les Paul was in so many different areas of music................his passing is a truly sad day.
