“Les taught me my first chords on guitar when I was about
four-and-a-half...
and he's been my mentor for my entire life. I was light years ahead of
everybody else because I was right there when this guy was inventing most
of the
stuff.”

-Steve Miller (1943) Steve Miller Band

*Les Paul, the inventor of the electric guitar and multi-track recording,
and his wife, Mary Ford, were regular visitors at the Miller house. Les and
Mary
taught Steve his first chords when he was five years old. Steve still uses
some of the techniques they taught him at that time.
