A delightful ride
This trip through Les Paul and Mary Ford's recordings is so delightful that every time I listen to it, I wish it were longer. I find myself singing along every time.

The long excerpt from the 1950 Les Paul radio show at the end of the disc is interesting and fun, but all known episodes from the short-lived show are available and easy to find on the Internet.

Musical History
Les Paul was one of the first in the creation of modern music. The album was a joy to hear.

Les Paul Capitol Masters
Very Good audiofidelity. Enjoyed the Les & Mary recordings more than the instrumentals however. From the historical perspective, Paul's productions are interesting also.

The Best of The Best
If you're after a truly representative compilation of the works of Les Paul (and Mary Ford), then this is it. It's all there, pretty much on one CD. Thoroughly recommended listening for devotees and music lovers alike.

Classy Classic
I actually tried to find the original full recordings but the only thing I could find was on e-bay and it was over $100.00 for cassettes! My mom, who is 80 and had been bed-ridden remembered years ago and wished she had bought the set at $75.00. This is a great substitute. The sound is clear and crisp and there will never be another like him. (Although at this writing he is still alive) What many people don't know about Les Paul is what an inventor he was. He was the first to do double-tracking where the same person's voice is recorded over another track and he did it on wax discs! Mary Ford was one of the greatest singers of all time and probably underrated compared to her contemporaries. When you hear Tennessee Waltz you can't help thinking you are listening to Patti Page. If I have one very small gripe it is that I could have done without some of the talking but that is a small thing and may charm others.
