- This was my first time listening to this song, & man I had a hell of a reaction to it.
Electric guitar players owe a huge debt of gratitude to Les Paul and Leo Fender.
If you can, listen to this song with Earbuds or headphones, its amazing.

![What's My Line? - Les Paul & Mary Ford; Margaret Truman [panel] (Jun 13, 1954)](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/T6w1pxXbYg8/mqdefault.jpg)
The amazing thing is that he played this live at some university once and proved that he could play it nearly as recorded. He was no one trick pony!
Ohhh, good point. Les was definitely not a one trick pony.
Great understanding of what Les did in 1948. My birthday was in 1942 and I had listened to all of these recordings when I was at the age of 9 or 10. Little did I know in 1960 I would meet Les at the front door of his house, but didn't realize it was him. I thought it was a a carpenter working at his house. Les was always incognito and always answered his door when someone would knock.The story would get even more important when he came to see my family The Doyles perform in1965. That was the fateful day he asked me and my sister to come up to his house. It started the 45 years of working with him as his Luthier, engineer at Fat Tuesdays and both Iridiums and also co inventor.
Whaaattt? Holy Moly! What a story! Thank you for sharing this gem. I appreciate it. Really I think every single electric guitar player owes a debt of gratitude to Les and Leo Fender.
Dive in, Les was a genius......and an inspiration for guitarists. There is so much to listen to and he did a ton of AV recordings.
Les called his invention, his 'little black box', and Eddie Van Halen asked Les where he could get himself a 'little black box'.
That was from the 80s HBO special, "Les Paul and Friends", and the the friends included Eddie, Brian Setzer, Steve Miller, BB King, David Gilmore. That's all that I can remember, right now, but there's some great guitar playing going on.
Nice! I’ll have to check that out. 👍
@@SaintLuminus Jan Hammer is there, too, and plays a lot. Carly Simon, also. I think. Everybody played a couple of their own songs, mostly.
Jeff Beck and Imelda May do a nice tribute to Les Paul and Mary Ford, on the first half of "Jeff Beck's Rock and Roll Party" video, that you might enjoy.
@@dave-ox2eo OHHHH, i haven't seen that Jeff Beck video either. Damn, I'm missing out. thanks for these recommendations
I recommend the Les Paul biography (written in the 80's). Can't recall the author. I was at Fat Tuesday's to see Les play and the biographer was in the audience. There are so many simply so many astounding things about his technology and playing. And Mary Ford was no slouch (vocals or guitar).
Thanks for that recommendation Jim. I'll have to look for it. I'm absolutely jealous you got to see Les Paul perform, that's amazing!
I'm skeptical that this was recorded at half speed and then was sped up. As someone else commented, there are at least 2 videos on RUclips of Les Paul performing this number live; one in the studio and one in stage. The speed is impressive, but the fact that the notes are just so clean is astounding. And he was a man in his sixties for these videos.
I was lucky enough to see him perform live a few times at Fat Tuesdays and a few times at Iridium (those are 2 small bars/clubs in NYC where Les Paul was in residence). The man could still shred well into his eighties.
I'm so jealous you got to see him perform. Must've been an awesome treat
maybe in part the 2x speed was compensating bad response of the recording equipment, so we get those surprisingly high frequency content
Part of his brilliance is I believe Les Paul sped some parts up on purpose. Whenever you speed something up on tape, the pitch gets shifted up Along with the speed. I think Les Paul had this well planned out in advance which is why this is so brilliant
Good video 👏🏻
Thank you Ron! As much as I hate to say I discovered this song because of Rolling Stone......I have to admit this stuff from Les Paul is an absolute treasure. Thanks again for watching.
