Yeah, but it' quality not quantity that matters. The MJ freak show will go on for some time, but Les Paul's memory will be with us forever - or at least as long as there are guitars!Originally posted by Flatpicker View PostSad thing is, he won't get 1/2 the notice that Michael Jackson did...
And the people that will carry that torch is us! It doesn't matter if you've never played a Les Paul guitar in your life; if you play, you're carrying on his legacy. And I think Les would approve

RIP Les.
It's tragic that this legendary player won't get anywhere near the attention he deserves while that pedophile gets news for months. Let's hope there's a tribute to Les."Dear Dr. Bill,
