My thanks to Steve Ramm for his always informative reviews offered on this list and "In The Groove". As soon as I opened my September issue, I was attracted to his comments on the still living inventor of modern day recording techniques, Les Paul. I tracked down a copy of the DVD "Chasing Sound", came home, sat down and watched it all the way through. As a life long recording/musician nut who dabbled in some of those same experiments, I was thoroughly enriched. While still in high school, I learned broadcast production on those very same Ampex 300 series tape machines in an historic Los Angeles radio station. Oh, and the wind up portable 78 player featured on the DVD was just like dear old Dad's. Thanks to the modern day Edisons like Les, and the backing of Bing Crosby, the quality of our entertainment as an art form has greatly improved. Bravo Mr. Ramm and keep the great info coming! ps. If you can't make it to New York on a Monday to see Les Paul in person, in the L.A. area the next best thing is to catch a casual acquaintance of mine who plays just like Les. Mary Ford's brother, Bob, plays at the Pub in Upland a couple days a week.
