Yes, just brilliant, crispy & effortless. Thanks for posting this video, guitarbro.
Mary Ford looks a bit like our Mary Young, in this clip.

Chet, Les and Django. Along with the three Kings, Freddy, BB and Albert, I doubt there's a picker alive who can't credit one or more for their style.

Vaya Con Dios (may God be with you)
Les Paul & Mary Ford

Now the hacienda's dark
The town is sleeping
Now the time has come to part
The time for weeping

Vaya con dios, my darling
Vaya con dios, my love

Now the village mission bells are softly ringing
If you listen with your heart
You'll hear them singing

Vaya con dios, my darling
Vaya con dios, my love

Wherever you may be, I'll be beside you
Although you're many million dreams away
Each night I'll say a pray'r
A pray'r to guide you
To hasten every lonely hour
Of every lonely day
Now the dawn is breaking through a gray tomorrow
But the memories we share are there to borrow

Vaya con dios, my darling
Vaya con dios, my love

[Musical Interlude]

Vaya con dios, my darling
Vaya con dios, my love

HOW HIGH THE MOON
Les Paul & Mary Ford
(written by Nancy Hamilton and Morgan Lewis)

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
There is no moon above
When love is far away too
Till it comes true
That you love me as I love you

Somewhere there's music
How near, how far
Somewhere there's heaven
It's where you are
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

------ guitar solo ------

Somewhere there's music
How faint the tune
Somewhere there's heaven
How high the moon
The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon

Not quite. I don't look like anyone. Even my family says I don't resemble me in the least.
Kafka woulda' loved me.......

Anyway, I don't look like Les Paul and this is his thread.

It's been a precious day of Les Paul love and remembrances among my dearest friends ...
Some are anxious to speak about the many times they have seen him perform.

Others, not quite ready to speak of another loss in THE catalogue of life.

And, many have their own Les Paul quitars that I am damn sure they are cranking them up to 11 and will be playing right out loud TONIGHT !!
How high is that moon? Oooh yeah!
