I watched that on the telly on Friday night.

Much of the music was not to my taste, but there's no denying the sheer genius of the man!

I saw the programme a few months ago, and was blown away !

The most important thing to come across (for me) was just how important Les Paul was for inventing most of the recording techniques we all hear daily.

That, and the fact that he was (still is) a sh*t hot guitar player.
