Les Paul & Mary Ford

The biography of Les Paul and Mary Ford by Jean William Thoury , illustrated by San Millan and accompanied by 2 compact discs.

A little flashback, in the history of music, from the 1930s to the 1950s, under the virtuoso fingers of Les Paul , whose inventiveness marked the history of the guitar since he notably created the famous Gibson The Paul . But he is also a famous guitarist, between jazz and country, who played in a trio and with various singers, before meeting Mary Ford , who would become his other half on stage and in life. The singing of one and the guitar of the other generate a collection of wonderfully elegant pieces.
