Here's my tribute to Les Paul who died last week at the age of 94. This photo was taken at the Iridium Jazz Club in midtown Manhattan in June, 2007. I only met him briefly while he posed for my photos, but what a warm, engaging man he was. We've lost a true genius, the inventor of the electric guitar, multi-track recording, tape looping, and other innovations. I think he was an underrated guitar player as well. RIP Les Paul.

Picture of the Day

If you're ever in Memphis TN, and have a couple of hours, take the Memphis Mojo Tour. If you're lucky, Memphis Jones will be your guide to the fun and funky realm of Beale Street and beyond. Even the bus is a trip. If you don't have a couple of hours, make the time. Seriously.
