Well the guy who started it all with the electric guitar has passed on.I am lucky enough to have met him and watched him play several times in a small club setting.He was loved by so many people,not just musicians as Les was a great guy(a cat as the jazz guys say).I hope his family is doing well...http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090813/ap_en_mu/us_obit_les_paul
