About Les Paul
Les Paul, born Lester William Polsfuss, was a guitarist, songwriter, and hands-on builder whose work crossed jazz, country, blues, and pop. He developed early solid-body electric guitar designs that helped shape the instrument later associated with the Gibson Les Paul, while also recording hit sides in the 1950s with singer-guitarist Mary Ford. In New York City, his name is closely tied to the Iridium, where annual birthday-week concerts bring artists from the rock and jazz worlds into his orbit. His legacy favors precision and invention over showmanship.
