It's nice how people like Tommy Emmanuel and others show respect to a man who has had such a deep and lasting influence on guitar music.

Tommy Emmanuel is like the best of Chet Atkins and Les Paul on steroids. But, back in his prime, Les could have easily matched Tommy on the leads. And Les was the first to do it.

From start to finish: mutual reverence and fun. Les may have only one finger left, but he makes up for it all with his wit and his ability to be who he is and to do what he does. This moment is two lifetimes in the making. The best, by far, of all of the Les Paul Iridium videos.

Icons, playing "Caravan." It's amazing how Tommy limits himself to Lester's musical vocabulary, takes it to the next level right in front of him, and never disrespects him in any way, only admires and venerates him. Great music, coupled with great entertainment: Usually it's one or the other, rarely it's (as it is here) both.

I have no idea why I punish myself watching these "Les Paul and" vids. I mean, cmon, they suck. It's people outplaying Les in his 90s just because hey, it's LES PAUL and boy wouldn't it be cool to play with HIM. nope. It's just kind of sad. I mean, Tommy is a great guitarist and to hear him playing with ease and precision and speed and poor Les made to look like he has one note left in him.... all these vids I just need to not watch and remind myself why. I'm glad Les played till he croaked but I can't watch these.
