Who do you consider to be an innovative figure that changed music? Share below
Bjork!
@@leefchapman Very true
Charlie Parker
@@allynjohnson5684 An incredibly innovative performer and musician, yes!
Brian Eno. SUPER influential figure in the past ~40 years of popular music.
Thank you, Warren! This is one of your best and most important episodes in this series. Everyone who plays and records music today is where we/they are because of Les Paul's genius.
Absolutely! Agreed 100%!
I love watching videos of him and his wife multitracking songs together. You can tell they practiced A LOT, because they always knock everything out in one take. It brings me joy 💜
A master craftsman mastering his craft!
I saw Les in 2000 at the Iridium in N.Y.. I didn’t go to get his autograph, because I thought the queue was too long. During the pandemic I waited in line to get toilet paper...Great video Warren, as always!
Great analogy Stephan! We've all made those mistakes! I worked with Stan Lee and felt to shy to take a photo with him, foolish mistake
You guys are killing it with this series. And your writing and editing have just continued to get better throughout. Thanks so much for helping to curate and share these artists and their work. There's so much about the internet that is either vapid or downright harmful, but it's this kind of content which shows where the better angels of the technology might reside.
Cheers
thank you so much, randy! we put a lot of love into this.
Warren, thank you for a happy and loving tribute to one of the greatest gifts to music ever. Les Paul Lives! Cheers.
Thanks ever so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I remember telling my friends things about les Paul that I had heard about…that he was so innovative…that was the days before TH-cam though…wish I had this video to show them back then….great job sir!!!
Thanks ever so much Mark!
Great to see the second part of this! He is legendary. Honestly, I think an artist like Bjork is quite innovative in her approach to technology, performance and the perception from the audience!
Thanks Lee!
Truly a legendary figure
He really is!
The man that was a legend in his own time. Love u Les!
Yes, then, now and forever a legend!
Thank you so very much for these videos! You are preserving the past by presenting it to current and future generations who would never have known!
This means alot, Michael
Beautiful ! Loved the Jeff Beck anecdote at the end! Les Paul contributed so much over his life he deserves the plaudits.
Thanks ever so much David!
Great video about a wonderful man, thank you Warren! I heard How High the Moon as a kid and really thought it was an orchestra of guitars and a choir of voices. That slapback echo! Les was also a mentor to pioneering engineers like Al Schmitt and Tom Dowd, and I love the way he and Chet Atkins played together. Gonna play my goldtop now . . .
Hi Willem! Glad you enjoyed it!
Stellar video as always. Les Paul is one artist that as of recent I've found an adoration for so these videos where good timing. One of my favourite albums of his is Hawaiian Paradise. A short but lovely record
Thank you Danny!
Thanks Warren When I was a very young boy I got to see Les Paul and Mary Ford live with a state fair/livestock show ticket. The Paulverizer on his guitar blew me away!!! Saw Roy Clark the next year who gave Pat Matheny one of his first Pro gigs. The Baja Marimba Band (Herb Alpert) said my sister would have been here but she drank some of your water. Good artists play State Fair Shows sometimes!!!
I met Les Paul backstage at the Iridium in 2004(?). I saw the 1st show of the night and they were trying to get us out of there, but I ducked backstage and introduced myself to him. My dad had seen him at a Boy Scout Jamboree when he was a kid. I mentioned this to Les and he instantly recalled, "oh yeah, the scouts all had flashlights shining as we played. That was the day before I went to visit Eisenhower in the Whitehouse." He was so cool and sharp as a tack. I do have a photo, thankfully!
Wonderful tribute to an astonishing human being R.I.P. Les! Thank you Warren!
Thanks ever so much Dave!
Great video, I will always be mad at myself for not going to see Les perform at the Iridium where he’s spent his last years playing every Monday with the Les Paul Trio and many of the guitarists you mention. In 2013 I became the audio engineer at the Irdium and recorded so many great shows many of which were in dedication to Les, like Steve Vai and Satriani for Front and Center. Zakk Wylde did a show as well and he played with the Les Paul Trio and Anton Figg was the drummer for the show but he was working at the tonight show so he couldn’t make sound check. I was hitting the kick for the FOH mixer and Zakk turned around and counted me in. So I played drums with Zakk and the Les Paul Trio for three or four tunes. I am not a drummer! … Great times.
Thank you for recognizing Les Paul and his genius inventions. The world owes a huge thank you to Les Paul! A lot of young people don't understand how it all it began..thanks again for sharing...We all try to do something on this planet..but when it comes to multitrack recording ...It all goes back to Les Paul. All of us users using current technology ..was based on Les Pauls genius. I edit to add just a big thank you!
I got to meet Les at The Iridium in New York where he played. He was gracious and humble. i got my picture made with him and that picture hangs in my studio. Many younger people see it and say, "Who is that"?
I am a big Les Paul fan as well as Mary Ford. I have been to the Mahwah Museum in New Jersey a number of times. This is where Les put his 8 track and mixing board on permanent display. I appreciate your video where you explain his immense impart on the recording industry and never mention that guitar with his name on it.
Great stuff. What a brilliant inventor Les Paul was. Lovely video, cheers
He was an unbelievable talent
Great documentary on the “Wizard of Waukesha”!
Haha yes! Indeed!!
@@Producelikeapro I also really appreciated your documentary on McKinley Morganfield, Muddy Waters. I knew and played with many of the Chicago blues musicians at the Checkerboard during the lates 80’s and early 90’s. My favorite was Lefty Dizz who was present when the Stones showed up. I am looking forward to your next artist expos’e.
Les Ford is on tape, having discussed that his 8 track idea was turned down by a manufacturer on the east coast, so Les's friend suggested that he had an air fare ticket to San Francisco. Les asked, what is in San Francisco, and the friend replied, Ampex. Les went to San Francisco, pitched the 8 track, and Ampex gave the go-ahead. The guy was a sound genius, and there is always someone around that wants to cash in on a good idea.
Really awesome video. Great tribute!
Amazing video! Love the history!
Thanks ever so much!
Warren!.. This video is priceless!… Great work, thank you!
What a great series for an inspiring and innovative man. Well done all.
It was great to see a marvellous tribute to a genius and innovator who helped shape the future of recording.
Can I suggest an upcoming profile/chat of Steve Lillywhite?
Love your show, btw...
Bing bongo this is so cool 👍 thanks great job Sir kindly love this did Not know this.. interesting ..😮
I loved the historical content!
Thanks, Paul!
I took a look at the history of 8-track recording after a question about music of 1965 on a (Dutch) quiz. Of course in Europe after the war it was so different. "The Beatles groundbreaking Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band LP (1967) was created using pairs of four-track machines". "It was during The Beatles' recording of their White Album sessions of late 1968 that Abbey Road Studios finally had eight-track recorders installed. Until then the group went to Trident to record with eight-tracks". A good example of how the music in 1965 was sometimes full stereo 8-track, but often l/m/r 4-track (those old Abbey Road mixers - I hate those!).
Not just the name on an expensive guitar. Everytime you use a DAW to overdub your part, you should thank Les Paul. Plus, if you'd given him a distortion pedal and he would have competed with any guitar hero you care to name. One of the best ever.
A true genius!
Thanks. Yet again, a delightful video.
Thanks, Steve. Glad you enjoyed it
"How High The Moon" is one of my favorite jazz songs to play. "Chester And Lester" is definitely a MUST have for any serious guitarist. You know, Warren, us Gen Xers are THE generation to see technology go from the old to the new. I remember how expensive it was to put together a studio and now I work with musicians who simply have a laptop and software like Garage Band and I feel like a DINOSAUR. Think I'll go move to Skull Island. Les Paul was TRULY one of the monolithic pinnacles of guitar. I know how Jimmy Page was really obsessed with him and Les had very high praise of Jimmy. When I met him, I asked, "What do you think of Jimmy Page?" He said, "On a scale of 1 to 10? He is the A #1 guy." Would be nice to see some really great innovators of today who are accomplishing even 1/4 as much. I'm sure they're there, just not in the mainstream for some reason.
Hey Warren, thank you for the amazing video! I have a suggestion. What about a video about Raymond Scott? He made great music and technology and was a friend and inventor-rival of Les Paul (as far as I know.) I believe he deserves some praise!
Great stuff!
Thanks ever so much
From start to finish Les Paul was something else . In an extremely good kinda way .
Thanks ever so much
great job on this one! Thanks
Wow, even better story than I'd heard, prior. Imagine that black box trigger for the off-stage recordings, groundbreaking in so many ways, and so risky. He was so much more than just a great guitarist. It makes one feel quite useless 🤣 Thanks for part II
Haha we all can feel this way if we allow ourselves! He was a true innovator! A pioneer
Never have I ever enjoyed history lessons THIS MUCH!
Thanks ever so much!
@@Producelikeapro thanks to you for the amazing content, Master Warren!! We appreciate you!! 🖤🖤🖤
@@dshredmusic you're very kind!
Thank you Warren. Great DOC.
You are welcome
At 7:48, the LP custom Les Paul is playing , looks like there is a single coil pickup, behind the bridge ?
Please explain.....
You should do a show on my generation's Les Paul: Tom Scholz.
On the list!
Fantastic video of This
You need to put the part numbers in the TH-cam title field!
Thank you! Great
Thanks ever so much
Joe Meeks would be a great study as well
Agreed 100%!
I went and looked, and $10k in 1957 is roughly equal to $102k today.
Amazing!
There’s an argument to be made for Bing Crosby having been the most famous musician to have ever lived, and even an argument for his having been the most famous media personality (in Anglophone countries) to have ever lived.
Looking forward to the inevitable episode on Bing!
Respect 🙏
Thanks ever so much Ashfaq!
He didn't just inspire guitarists, Bob Moog said Les Paul was the reason he got interested in music.
Very well said!!
Les Paul was a dear friend to Eddie Van Halen as well. He once asked Eddie to show him the tapping technique, but refused to try it on his own :)
Thanks ever so much Michael! Eddie was a sweetheart, I never met Les though, unfortunately
Thank you. A 20 minute education.
Thanks for the great comment
mark rubal wrote a article for tapeop some time ago and some of the stuff that didint make it in he had told some techs here in town those stories...we would hang out and just listen to those. he lived everything eat slept dreams this stuff...i think maybe that kind of commitment is almost extinct
Cheers
Thanks Alberto!
I knew nothing about him before your video.
Glad to be able to help!
Great
but you should talk about how he recorded with the 8 track.
The whole video I assumed bounced multiple channels to one.
As anyone would.
Makes a HUGE difference
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thanks ever so much Gareth!
😊💕
Thanks ever so much Audrey!
I would argue that Mary was a better player than Les. That said no one could deny his prowess as a musician and electronic genius!!
tom dowd is the father and king of rock and roll...get educated
