At 93 guitar virtuoso and legend Les Paul is still entertaining fans, playing a guitar made by the Gibson guitar company that bears his name.

Earlier this year a tribute album was made with Les Paul and some of the best pickers in the business.  And Les Paul himself joins in on the picking.  Shortly after making this album Hiram Bullock - the barefoot guitarist - died making the Les Paul tribute album Bullock's last official recording.

Les Paul and Friends "A Tribute to a Legend" is a must have album for anyone who loves guitar music.  And for the younger set, it is a chance to see the master who influenced so many of today's rockers.

The track and artist listing for "A Tribute to a Legend" are:
Joe Bonamassa - "The Luck You're Having" (first time ever on a recording)
Hiram Bullock - "The Walls Came Tumbling Down"
Joan Osborne - "I Don't Want to Be With Nobody but You"
Johnny Reznik - "All I Want is You"
Lisa Fischer - "Slippin into Darkness"
Less Paul and Friends - "69 Freedom Special"
Slash - "Vocalise"
Mick Hucknall - "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know"
Jeff Golub - "How Long"
